Finally researched what had happened to them...
I had actually forgotten about them, except for when I'd stumble across an old cooking magazine of theirs, and I'd wonder, 'whatever happened to them? When did I stop getting the magazine?
Etc.' I cannot remember how much money I spent on them, although there was a bakeware set in which I use the baking sheets most times I need to heat up something in the oven. Today, I was looking through an old wallet and found my Premier Life Member card! Since 12/2011! Again, I can't remember how much I paid them for anything.
Shame on me that I didn't keep track, right?
They could've sent us a postcard or a letter or some sort of communication informing the members what was going on. It would have been the courteous and right thing to do, especially after taking all our money.
- Had nice recipes
- Customers
- Do not communicate with their members
- Do not care about their members
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: With this company, do not take the bait!

Years ago I paid for a lifetime dues into the Cooking Club of America. I received my premium from that with some second rate cookware. Then they just disappeared. I no longer received their magazin
Everything that I was accessing disappeared. I received a message that the club was no longer active.
Now I see that they are active again but I would have to start all over now if I access the club web sites.

Verified ReviewerWould love to give this company a big fat zero
Have been a member since 2012 never received anything unfortunately life got crazy and I did not realize I didnt receive anything for over a year before I had time to stop and think I tried reaching out to them and got no response so major rip off Do Not do not pay for a lifetime membership It is a total rip off. Its a scam and I cannot believe that theyre getting away with this.
User's recommendation: Do not fall for it. It’s a scam.

Love to test products no again , and loved the cooking club of America.
I was a life time member of the cooking club of America. We were sent new products to test and give our opinions and rating on.
Some of the things they sent were food which we cooked and some were knife sharpeners. I love belonging to this club. All of sudden it all stopped. But we were paying dues.
I would love to know what happened and why did they change their name.
Does this new club work the same way? Terryerv@***.com
I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THE THE COOKING CLUB OF AMERICA HAD GONE OUT OF BUSINESS SEVERAL YEARS AGO. I READ A NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS AT THE TIME ABOUT IT DISAPPEARING.
I PAID TO BE A LIFE MEMBER AND GOT THE POTS AND PANS.
ARE YOU SAYING THAT THEY HAVE REAPPEARED? OR ARE YOU COMPLAINING ABOUT THE FAILURE TO HEAR FROM THEM?

Verified ReviewerRan across a postcard from this company from 2011. This company took several hundreds of dollars from me and never contacted me after a few years. I was duped by them but I’m happy I stopped
What current issue? I haven't heard from them in more than 10 years. What happened to my lifetime membership?
- Recipes and overall content of magazine
- No contact for years
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Don’t buy into them
Not heard from them in years
I was a charter member from 2000. I got all of the cookbooks and two pots and pan sets.
I still use the stainless steel set, but only have the small non stick frying pans. They started off so strong, then the upgrades to lifetime and elite memberships and things went down hill. The free items to review turned into coupons for products not offered in the area and told to bad by management.
Then the clincher was reselling the same cookbooks with different covers. The magazine went from monthly to quarterly then nothing.
User's recommendation: Don't get involved
I was a member years ago and had a similar experience ;-)

Lifetime member.
I have been a lifetime member to the cooking club of America since about 2006. Have not heard from them in many many years.
I recently found some of the magazines and thought I would check back again.
Never received anything that was promised. And had attempted to reach them many times years ago.

No contact from them in well over 20 years
I had paid for a lifetime membership to cooking club of America. Ive been a member since about 2006.
They seemed to have dropped off the face of the Earth and never notified their customers. Never received anything that was promised.
User's recommendation: Buyers beware as with anything nowadays

Disappointed
Haven't heard from Cooking club of America in probably over 10 years, I had the lifetime membership. And all of a sudden with no warning the magazines stopped showing up. Not right to leave your members not knowing what's up
