Product Description
This cookware set is an exceptional value, including all of the pans needed to equip your kitchen with the most used cooking pieces. It includes saucepans for whisking a homemade sauce or cooking your morning oatmeal, a big stockpot for soups, stews or boiling pasta, and skillets (probably the most used pan in any kitchen) that will help you turn out perfect crepes or a simple grilled cheese sandwich. The set also includes a saute pan, a wide, straight-sided pan that can perform many of the functions of a skillet but features deep sides for extra capacity, perfect for one dish meals. Start your dish in this pan by sauteing onions and browning meat, then add your liquid and other ingredients into the same pan to finish on the stovetop or in the oven.

Customer Reviews
Reasonably priced cookware5
I've always wanted to have a nice set of durable cookware. Thanks to Anolon, that is now possible. I made the decision based on using other people's hard anodized cookware and especially Anolon because of using knives made by them. I won't regret buying this cookware set. Especially with my boys who can be hard on my cookware. (they don't mean to be!) This is definately worth the price(which is actually a bargain). I look forward to buying open stock to complete the set. Thanks to Anolon for a great product.
Great set of cookware, amazing price!4
I purchased these pots and pans about a month ago, and I'm really pleased with them. They heat up fast, but not too fast (like non-teflon pans where I can easily burn my food). The non stick is amazing, even if something starts to stick to the pan it is easily removed with a stir of your spoon. I use wooden spoons for cooking, which I imagine will preserve the quality of the pots and pans longer than metal spoons would. As for plastic, I just don't like using plastic in my cooking, but I'm sure it would preserve the quality too.
Washing them is quick and easy too, they say not to put them in the dishwasher, and I won't because I love them so much I don't want to risk ruining them. The one thing that I noticed though is that they can become stained on the outside of the pot/pan pretty easily. I've just been scrubbing a little harder on the outside if there is a stain and it comes of mostly all the way, but if I didn't do the extra bit of scrubbing I could see that this would become a permanent stain.
I have a friend with teh same pots and pans, she got them several years ago though, and hers are in great shape still, and she cooks very frequently. So they hold up well too. I wanted a set with glass lids, but they were more expensive, and I really don't miss the non-glass lids. Amazon was offering an amazing deal on these, if you can get them for the price I got ($129.00) you're getting a great deal.
Love the Nonstick!5
These pans are great! The nonstick surface makes it easy to cook AND easy to clean. They're very sturdy and don't feel like they're going to break like other pans I've used. I think these pans will last me for years to come.
