Review on 🍳 Cuisinart Chef's Classic Non-Stick Hard Anodized 17-Piece Set in Black: The Ultimate Kitchen Cookware Collection by Tina Campanita

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Wear/scratch Non-stick coating after 2 months

This is a $200 kit. I had to replace the first set sent in due to a defective frying pan/coating. Should have known and put together another set right away. I don't even have metal utensils and have never used a fork or a ladle. Here are pics of two pans I haven't used and one pan I've been using 3 days a week since I've owned it for 2 months. Cuisinart claims it has a quantum coating that's resistant to metal utensils. It scrapes well with plastic utensils. Also, after only 2 months the paintwork is discolored and scratched and looks pretty hideous next to a pan I haven't used (maybe 2-3 times). Just lather with a soft sponge. The most commonly used pans are rubbed with a thin layer of oil (seasoning) once a week. I read the instructions and didn't do anything supernatural. I have yet to add a close-up photo of the scratches. GR. I will never buy this set again. Lowest rating I've given a Revain since I've shopped here (years). I like the amount of items and what the set has to offer which is why I chose it. Should have gone with Calfalon and fewer pieces or maybe Tfale. DisappointedUpdate: It's been 3 months, more photos added. The last one is a cooking pan next to the pan I bought at Walmart 3 years ago. The non-stick coating on my pan looks rusty. Do not buy this product. I use an electric range and have never used heat above 6 out of 10 (medium heat) as stated by cuisinart. I have never used metal utensils and never cleaned the pan with a "scratching" brush. I'm amazed at how bad this nonstick coating is. Bought from December 1st, 2017 to March 28th, 2018. The last 2 photos show the condition of my most worn pants (3-4 times a week). It's time to buy some new pans and give them to a friend who needs a charity donation. AngryPS: I would like to point out that Revain's customer service is top notch. They always took care of the problems I had. Unfortunately this set is of poor quality and now I have to invest in another set. My most used pan looks rusty and I don't feel safe using it.

Pros
