When I moved into my house I bought a microwave saucepan, it was only a small one and cost just 99p, I had used one for years while I was at home nearly every morning for heating the milk for my cereal, I knew how handy they were so buying one was a must. However 2 months ago I was using it to melt chocolate over a pan of hot water and stupidly managed to melt the handle. The sauce pan would have been usable but it was stained and a bit battered so I looked for a new one and found just what I was looking for in a Lakeland store we have not very far from us. The Lakeland microwave saucepan comes with a domed lid, something my other one didn't have, and cost me ...  Read the complete review

My partner works a variety of shifts including nights and weekends, whereas I work nine to five, Monday to Friday. As a result both of us frequently will be eating lunch or dinner alone. I do a lot of batch cooking- things like chilli, curry, lasagne, pasta bakes, soups etc that I can portion them up and pop them in the freezer. We can then take whatever we fancy out of the freezer the night before they are needed, and pop it in the fridge to defrost before heating it up when we come to eat it. On a lazy day we are both guilty of opening a tin of baked beans/ spaghetti/ soup, and just eating it with toaste or a jacket potato. It is always quicker and easier ...  Read the complete review

I have been looking for something like this for ages because I heat a lot of stuff up in the microwave and am sick of the food staining the inside of my microwave containers and jugs. Beans and spaghetti are the worst but even simple things like reheating stew makes the containers look so manky that I end up chucking them away when they've still got loads of life left in them. This small saucepan from Lakeland is perfect though and the best thing is it cost me less than £4.00! It's exactly what it says it is and that's a small saucepan. A 13cm diameter pan with a lid that fits good but has got vents where the spouts of the saucepan are to let the steam ...  Read the complete review

I like many of us out there do not often heat/cook on the hob like everyone used to since the good old microwave came along.Although the food is ready quicker and its more convenient there is often a problem....the state it can leave your plastic containers in.Cooking anything with a coloured element especially orange....well you end up with orange containers !! Well no more ...not with this amazing little saucepan. I saw this when out shopping with a friend who is a massive lakeland fan and until that day as much as i had heard of the store i hadnt stepped foot in one.She showed me this little saucepan and told me how amazing it was so i thought id give it ...  Read the complete review

I found this little saucepan in Lakeland whilst I was looking for a microwave egg poacher. All the microwave items were three for the price of two so I thought I would give it a try. I have had microwave saucepans in the past, but they have always been white and so within a few weeks of heating up tomato soup and beans they have turned a lovely shade of orange. I often bring a tin of soup into work for my lunch but always make a mess of the microwave and spend half of my lunch break cleaning up splattered minestrone !!! This has saucepan has saved my well earned lunch break, It is so good I even went back and bought three of them, one to keep at work ...  Read the complete review
