"We set out on a mission to rethink the kitchen space in 2017 and engaged with Thomas as our industrial designer arm to do so. Working with Thomas has been a great experience. We've launched dozens of new SKUs and won numerous awards: Time Magazine 2018 Invention of the Year, Best Stainless Steel Cookware and Best Heavy Duty Wok by Good Housekeeping, and have been featured in The NY Times and other publications multiple times. I would recommend Thomas to anyone - as long as they aren't a competitor."
- Chip Malt - CEO & Co-Founder of Made In

"The Universal Lid is a fabulous invention, this one lid has three different-size bottom lips, allowing it to fit a variety of pots and pans without heat loss and water run-off"
