Durable, quality stainless!
By Robyn Mc on Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2025
Purchased these to go with new induction stove back in 2016 (9 yrs back) and they are durable and work well. I wanted to write this review because I saw a couple of poor reviews saying glass shattered on lids, etc. I do understand that there are occasional manufacturing flaws with even the best of companies. I hope those people reached out to the company. But I will also say, that many poor reviews I have seen on products are often from operator error and people abusing a product and not using as intended or from those who clearly do not read instructions or specs. There are limitations on heat for the lids for oven use and they are not meant to be used under very high heat. My husband once managed to leave one with food burning on the stove and the bottom (outside) is now somewhat discolored, but still quite functional and just a little stained. I also get lazy at times and put my lids in the dishwasher and they have held up well, there. No loose seals or handles. My one tiny bugaboo with these is I have noticed that my largest stock pot has a tendency to sputter with the lid on when boiling or simmering for longer periods of time, even with the vent. This is remedied by either using the included strainer for steaming things or by turning temp down a notch or two. Many pots will do the same, so not worth losing a star over. On occasions I have used in the oven, they also work well. Highly recommend this set and agree with another reviewer—my children may be fighting over this set after I cross over to my final destination!

... just received this item and they have a very nice look to them
By Chris V. on Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2017
We just received this item and they have a very nice look to them. We have used them once so far for scrambled eggs. The pan was preheated and we wiped it with olive oil. We cook our eggs on a lower temperature. They did not burn but it took a little work to get the pan clean, but it wasn't bad. This was to be expected. The three star rating comes from the medium sauce pan had a couple of scratches on the inside bottom and the size of the large frying pan was disappointing. It is a 10" fry pan with only 7" of cooking surface. We had a 10" caphalon with our old set and it was at least 8" in terms of cooking surface. We expected it to be bigger I guess. The other point that I didn't pay attention to is the measurement marks but they are not etched but some sort of overlay and they are only in metric. The lids seem awfully light for a supposed higher end product. Overall, we are happy enough with them not to return until we get to use them more. It is a great looking set and looks and feels like good quality. We also love the large sauté pan. I'm not sure how much difference it makes when the cladding is only on the bottom and not up the sides (like All Clad). We didn't want to spend twice the price for All Clad, so we tried to go to the next price point. We looked at this and one of the cuisinarts. The cuisinart had a mirrored finish and didn't have glass lids. Keep in mind this says 17 pieces but in fact it counts the 3 cooks utensils as part of the 17. The meat and potatoes of this set is that it's 7 pieces of cookware. We are currently at 3 stars until we have time to find out how well these items produce over time.
