Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am very happy that I got this set!

great satisfaction that I now have this set. Definitely good quality and saved me a kit compared to an anolon kit I was considering. Also, it was the only set I could find that had the exact number and type of pots and pans I was replacing. I was willing to try different set configurations, but only if they included at least a 1, 2, and 4 liter pot, a frying pan, and 2 pans with lids for most or all of the parts. (All pans have lids, and one of the lids fits the smaller pan, but the larger pan doesn't work as well.) After reading the reviews I was a bit apprehensive, but I was completely satisfied with my purchase. My set was clearly new, clean and undamaged. Haven't used them for long but just made an oil free omelet and was amazed at how quickly it cooked and how a commercial slipped right out of the pan. A good deal is cooking some reviews on a few other sites highlighting this set. T point worked; probably more useless than useful in the long run, but we'll see. A few tips to avoid some of the problems others have reported: 1. Never heat a pan or cook anything over high heat. You won't need it anyway as the pans heat up very quickly.2. Follow the included instructions for seasoning the pans, something you may not have thought of with non-stick pans.3. Never wash non-stick pans in the dishwasher, no matter what the manufacturer says.4. Ditto for going without metal utensilsโ€”it just screams chipping off the Teflon coating. Before washing, let the pots cool down to avoid deformation.6. Don't worry about poor manufacture if your pot is dented after falling a few feet onto a hard floor. AKA, use common sense.7. Use some sort of protective padding between the pans when storing. In this regard, the cardboard packaging that it comes in is useful. Note that the Teflon is NOT peeling or chipping and the underside is not overly darkened. Another reviewer showed them a discolored and warped pan that had clearly been overheated and/or cleaned while the pan was still hot. As mentioned earlier, by not raising the temperature above medium, not putting the pans in the dishwasher, waiting for them to cool, and lightly seasoning the pan with oil, sometimes my set looked and worked just as well as the first day. My first non-stick cookware. I know how to mess them up, so the advice I gave (which comes from the manufacturer, btw) is solid. This bundle is still a good buy - and even better with the Prime Day deal.
