mdjportrait150.jpgHello, My name is Mark Jala, and I am the founder of the Your Cookware Helper website. I love to cook, and I guess you can say, I am a foodie at heart. I love all things food and cooking.

The purpose of Your Cookware Helper is to make it easy to find the best cookware for you, and show you where you can get it at the best price.

A few years back I discovered that most cookware websites simply copied info from the cookware manufacturers websites, without adding any value. Also, most who offer cookware reviews do so without even holding the cookware in their own hands.

To me, cookware is about cooking! I set out to add value you won't find anywhere else.Your Cookware Helper is the 1st to:

* offer a dishwasher safe logo
* offer a healthy cookware logo
* offer comparison charts and tables

And we are expanding coverage of the top cookware brands. Soon we will have detailed info on 20 brands and each of their product lines.

If you don't find something you are looking for, please let me know. Use our Contact-Us page and let us know what you are looking for. I'll do my very best to provide the information to you.

I wish you much joy in your cooking!
