Korean pottery is now widely distributed in the Russian market, so shops with such products are easy to find in any big city. And this is understandable: the quality of famous brands, a guarantee, a wide range of goods - all this creates a positive impression on the buyer and only "ignites" the interest of a person looking for a set of kitchen utensils for their home.
As a rule, such products are easy to notice due to bright logos and interesting descriptions. The most common products of Korean manufacturers, manufactured in Central Asia. Among the companies supplying their goods to the Russian market is the well-known Fissman company. Let's consider some features of this company, and also get acquainted with all the pros and cons of dishes from China and Korea as such.
Features of Fissman cookware
The company is really based in Korea, but the design-related developments are carried out byDane. The main production facilities are localized in Central Asia.
The history of the company says that this is a relatively young concern, founded not so long ago - in our 21st century, thanks to a group of experienced enterprising professionals headed by the most experienced Danish designer - Hans Rummer.
After just a few years, the company managed to introduce its production facilities abroad, expanding its borders hundreds of thousands of kilometers from Southeast Asia (Korea and China) to Europe.
This activity of the company, the prevalence and quality of products made the products salable. Korean tableware, due to its sophistication, is designed to give aesthetic pleasure to the owners of the table set.
Which tableware from Korea has advantages
First and most importantly - high-quality marble coating. In famous brands that position themselves as manufacturers of dishes, you will not find defects or low-quality products. The latest novelty, which has been in trend for several years, was the marble coating of the non-stick surface of pans, pots and other kitchen utensils. This layer is based on polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). In simple words, ordinary Teflon, also known as fluoroplastite-4. This coating is used for Korean cookware Frybest, Fissman and other popular brands.
Inherent marbling is only a decorative effect that attracts customers. A distinctive feature of "marble" pans is uniqueness. Having suchonly true Korean tableware can boast of a decorative surface. The European manufacturer practically does not have such an assortment.
The main advantages of Korean kitchen utensils are:
- wide range of products;
- attractive appearance;
- opportunity to purchase products of Korean and Chinese manufacturers in branded stores in Russia or order online from other countries;
- Easy recognition of Asian brands of tableware due to their quality and popularity;
- chain of branded stores in Russia;
- quality assurance.
Cost of kitchen utensils
In general, the pricing policy for Korean tableware is characterized by an average and slightly above average. From this variety, you can choose any design and ergonomic option.
So, a compact set of two frying pans with a modification of a removable handle will cost the buyer about 3,000 rubles. This is the average price for aluminum products with an external BIOECOCERAMICA non-stick ceramic coating. At the same time, Bakelite is used to cast the "holder", and the dishes themselves are ideal for working with an induction cooker.
For a set of 8 items (4 pots and 4 lids) you will have to pay about 6,500 rubles, although, by searching the sites, you can purchase a set at a promotional price with a discount of up to 1,500 rubles. Although in this case it is worth throwing in the cost of delivery, which will cost from 400 rubles in Moscow.
In what range of dishes are on the market
Variety is extremely high:
- pots;
- pans;
- saute pans;
- knives;
- cutlery;
- kitchen accessories.
These items are preferably made in light colors, combined with a light dynamic design.
For the manufacture of Korean tableware, the manufacturer uses environmentally friendly material that does not contain lead and cadmium, and before releasing a new line to the market, it subjects it to serious tests and a series of tests for quality, strength, heat resistance, safety, etc..
It is not difficult to find quality crockery or cutlery from China or Korea. The main thing is not to fall for scammers who, under the guise of certified products, sell low-quality goods that spoil the impression of many branded Chinese manufacturers.
Guarantees for buyers
If your product is made of stainless steel or cast aluminum, the warranty period is 12 months. Plastic and silicone products, as well as kitchen accessories, receive up to 6 months of warranty service. But in some cases, the guarantee does not apply to dishes made in China or Korea. This happens when the dishes are mechanically damaged as a result of:
- drop items;
- use of cookware in violation of the temperature regime, which as a result leads to overheating;
- deliberate spoilage.
Anti-warranty for dishes
In addition to these three factors, the warranty service of Korean ceramic-coated cookware is not carried out in case of a natural change in the external properties of the product that arose during operation. Among them are such flaws:
- mechanical damage to the surface;
- natural changes in metal color;
- spots, dots of lime and more.
Dishes reviews: what they say
It is worth noting that customer reviews are controversial and unstable. Some praise, showing off the long service life of purchased Korean coated dishes. Others complain that the pan or pot began to deteriorate on the first use.
Referring to Korean-made dishes, many people mean a low-quality product. But what comes from Asia is not always bad. Buying dishes in a certified company store, according to experts, you can be sure of the quality of the goods.
Some negative characteristics inherent in dishes
Among the shortcomings, buyers note the following:
- manufacturer's symbol;
- various reviews of dishes that do not give an accurate idea of the quality of the goods;
- discrepancy between price and declared quality;
- frequent lack of warranty.
Despite these negative qualities, there are still good reviews about Korean tableware. Give preference to such goods ortrusting European brands is everyone's business. But often, for the same price for which you can buy one pot or pan in a company store, you can buy a full-fledged set of kitchen utensils from a Korean manufacturer. Which, of course, attracts the attention of most buyers due to the budget.
To buy or not - this is the main question that almost every buyer asks. It remains to decide for yourself what dishes to choose for your kitchen. The only thing worth recommending in this case is to pay attention to real customer reviews on the Web. Only in this way will you most accurately and objectively orient yourself on what to focus on, and which seller is better to bypass.
