For anyone looking to purchase Calphalon in any location NOT directly from Meyers Location-DO NOT…read morepurchase in any store. I purchased a pan by Calphalon and the pan came with "5 Year Warranty (I actually purchased a griddle as well that also is defective and just took it as a loss but when it happened a second time within the same timeframe I felt the need to ask the the Meyers Corporation to stand behind their documented warranty) but after 4 months of waiting for a reply on replacing my pan I was first informed that the photos I submitted were not good, so I sent updated photos now the next excuse is that I did not purchase the item directly from Meyers so they will not stand behind their guarantee. I will be informing the store that I made the purchase at that they may want to consider the product they are selling on behalf of Meyers Corporation due to false advertising on the label that clearly states 5 Year Warranty and Not to Return to the Store so that is contradicting I will not purchase any Faberware, Calphalon, Circulon, Anolon, Cookware, Paula Deen, Rachael Ray, Ayesha Curry, Bonjour, Ruffoni, and Silverstone, which will limit my choices but I need products that will last more than 6 months and a company that will stand by their product. This is not a rant it is merely information for anyone looking to make a purchase to truly think about and ask when making the purchase. I saved my receipt and sent with the photos of the item twice as was asked to and I am trying to save frustration with a faulty product and no refund or replacement instead I was offered 25% off a purchase. I am taking a loss on the two purchases and I am being asked to purchase more items that are not good. I was unable to see any value in the few months I used the product

It's so great to have this location in town. There are such great deals to be had and it's just fun…read moreto look through and see what they have - treasure hunt - especially their seasonal items. All the sales attendants have been very nice. Often I'm finding items that are still on sale on their main site. My recent find was a stone mortar and pestle that was 40% off. It's such a beautiful piece - an "own it for life" quality item - and thanks to WS outlet the value was great. I do give 4/5 stars due to the "no returns" policy. There have been occasions where here I passed on a purchase because I didn't feel confident enough. First force you to be very intentional and give the item a good once over. Other "buy it for life" items I've purchased have been a roasting pan, Thanksgiving and X-mas linens, and martini glasses.

There was no consistency in arrangements with many brands spread out over half the store. Many items matched what was currently in store, so my close guess would be that they carry seconds or minimally damaged/returned items. The few Le Creuset they did have were mainly in dirt brown and cerise, items that could be found online for the same price or lower. The service wasn't helpful or friendly and the store felt more like a Goodwill than the higher quality I was used to with Williams Sonoma. The final straw came when our items were rang up as the final sale price wasn't clear on the screen and didn't match the percentage listed on the shelf. Overall, there was nothing positive about this store so we never plan to return.

Le Creuset Outlet Store turned out to be a great stop while shopping at Vacaville Premium Outlets…read more We were looking for a birthday gift for a friend who loves cast-iron cookware, and after browsing for a bit, we ended up purchasing a traditional round skillet that matched the color of her existing cookware. The associate helping us was very patient and helpful, especially when it came to choosing the right color combination. The store itself is not huge, but it carries a surprisingly large variety of cookware and kitchen items. Since it's an outlet location, you won't necessarily find every style or color available in full retail stores, but the pricing is noticeably better. We've also been trying to slowly move away from some nonstick cookware and toward cast iron and other materials, so it was nice to see so many quality options in one place. Overall, it was a very pleasant shopping experience with helpful staff and good value.

To be honest, Le Creuset doesn't really have a lot of whole new exciting products. On the other…read morehand their classic lineup is exciting. So I headed in to take a look at all the pieces I didn't have. 25 years ago, I would've crumbled and purchased everything. Now I've grown up a lot and learned how to use straight up cast-iron. since I can make my own nonstick coating, Le Creuset suddenly looks expensive and kind of over the top. The one great thing about that enamel cast-iron, it resistant to acidic foods which means you can cook just about anything you want in the Le Creuset without switching to stainless steel or any other material. Since Le Creuset shouldn't be heated past medium, you still have to switch to stainless steel if you want high heat. Nevertheless, if you're making a stew, a Dutch oven from this company rules. So I took a close look at the Dutch ovens. They have quite the lineup. There were the adorable little ones which look cute but cook hardly any food. there were the more medium size ones, but since I already have one, I don't need the one that's one size down or one size up. Which leads to the 8 to 9 quart Dutch oven. Honestly as a single person 8 to 9 quarts is pretty impractical. Also, where would I store it. Nevertheless, I drooled. I was quite amused to see the big signs announcing the fresh new colors. They just don't have very many marketing gimmicks that they can apply to classic cookware. The one really nice thing about the store is the full lineup of cookware that this company makes. There aren't a lot of places that have anywhere near the stock that this store has. It's a great place to check out some of the harder to find items. Just make sure to ask about cosmetic defects. I purchased my pot from an outlet store 20 years ago. The staff person was very meticulous and showed me the exact cosmetic defect in the pot I purchased. She also warned me that the outlet products were not covered by the usual warranty. I purchased the pot and the cosmetic defect was indeed cosmetic. The pot cooked great. Luckily I've never needed the warranty. So make sure you ask.

Sign of the Bear Kitchenware in Sonoma, CA, is in the historic Sonoma Plaza shopping district…read more Sign of the Bear kitchenware. Say that 10 times fast. Just as fun to say, it's fun to browse even if you're not a home chef. They have brand name, quality cookware, bakeware, and kitchen items. Gifts and gadgets. Basic items (inexpensive) to "what do I do with this" specialized items (pricier). All at reasonable, competitive pricing for the brands. Locally owned since 1972. Awesome! The place is not particularly large, but they have a knack for utilizing space without feeling cluttered. I stopped in recently because I happen to be in the area and heard they carry Smithy, American made cast iron cookware. In particular I was looking for the carbon steel line of Smithy which is supposedly lighter in weight than their cast iron line. The young sales associate helped me locate the Smithy display. He was aware of the brand and knew where it was exactly in the shop. Lovely, gorgeous pieces. Pricing was on par.After doing my weightlifting kitchen curl test with a 10 inch skillet, I concluded that it is less weighty but I'm too weak to handle even that carbon steel weight. However I am uncommonly lacking the normal upper body strength. So you most likely will not have the same issue as I.

I put an item back after looking at it and it fell off the stand. This wasn't something that could break easily but it slid off the small stand it was sitting on. The lady said this place isn't for profit and if you break an item you buy it. Then she kept going as if it wasn't an accident and stated "that's why we have don't touch signs in the store". Umm where? There were no signs. We picked up an item because we were interested in buying it. Mind you, this item was a $600 copper mold which we WERE intended on buying! We left immediately after this which was extremely disappointing. I wish I got her name but her customer service was horrible. She should not be working in customer service. Afterwards my blood was boiling from our experience that I wanted to come back later after more shopping to quote the movie Pretty Women "big mistake, big, huge!" Early today we were at their sister store in St. Helena and the experience was completely different, they were extremely helpful and very friendly. Don't shop at CIA at Copia, make the little extra journey and shop the one at St. Helena.
