Amazon.com Review
This versatile cookware set from Cuisinart comprises a roomy 8-quart stockpot that’s perfect for soups and pasta, 3-quart and 1-1/2-quart saucepans, and a 10-inch skillet. The stockpot and saucepans come with tempered glass covers, designed to seal in flavor without hiding the food from view.

Each piece is made from durable hard-anodized aluminum that heats up quickly without hot spots, and each is lined with an advanced Quantanium nonstick coating. Quantanium is designed for healthy low-fat cooking, allowing even delicate foods like fish to be cooked without sticking. Every pan cleans up quickly and easily, and is tough enough for use with metal utensils, giving years of trouble-free service. The securely riveted stay-cool steel handles on each pan are oven-safe to 500 degrees F, so food can be browned on the stovetop then transferred to the oven to finish cooking. Together, the four pans in this set will handle almost any everyday cooking task, making them ideal for setting up a new kitchen or replacing older cookware. --Simon Leake

Good For The Money......But3
I have had this set for about a month and have had a chance to use them enough to have an opinion. They are well balanced and perform well, especially the sauce pans and stock pot. The 8 quart stock pot is large enough for a family of 4-6. Cuisinart advertises you can use metal utensils, but when you read their recommended use card, it says metal utensil will scratch the surface. That is a misleading marketing gimmick in my opinion.

My main complaint with the Cuisinart cookware is they heat up very quickly due to the thin 3 mm thickness. The fry pans are the weakest items of the set. After side-by-side comparisons against Emeril's All-Clad Hard Anodized, I much prefer the Emeril brand. The Emeril pans are 5 mm thick and seem to cook more evenly and are not near as temper-mental as the Cuisinarts.

For not much more money, I would look at the higher quality Emeril Hard Anodized set; and sorry Amazon, the best deals for Emerilware are using one of those 20% off coupons at Bed Bath and Beyond or Linens N Things.

Great but not perfect4
As always, you will never find a perfect cookware. This Cuisinart 7 piece is no exception. It is great but not perfect. Its light weight is very impresive and handle isn't that hot after long period of cooking time. Easy to clean. The non-stick surface is better than other brand. It takes very short time to heat up stuff too. However, couple weaknesses, the lit does not have a small hole to release pressure which we have to watch out for overheat spill. Plus the lit is not the same design as the pot itself, it heats up really quick. So be careful. It is not a good idea to buy plastic handle with the lit, it will deform and loose after a while. Over all, it is better than what I expected even though I have owned this set of cookware for 4 weeks.

A pleasure to use and a snap to clean5
This is the second cuisinart cookware set i have purchased from Amazon. The first i bought for my home and have been satisfied beyond my expectations. I bought the second 7 piece set for my travel trailor and again cannot begin to describe how wonderful they are to use.......TERRY THURMAN

Cook Like The Pro's5
My kids moved out and it was time to get professional grade cookware. Baby let me tell you what! This is it; you can not get any better. This is top of the line but if you have not used professional cookware you will need to learn to cook all over. Non-stick is not professional cookware by the way. No matter how much you clean non-stick and take care of non-stick, it will always have food/taste carry over from what ever you cooked before. Stainless Steal will not ever have carry over taste. Follow the all-clad cooking tips and watch Food TV and you will not only be cooking like a pro but you will feel like a pro and really enjoy cooking. The only exception to this is scrambled eggs, keep or buy a non-stick fry pan just for scrambled eggs. I myself added the 8" stainless steal with non-stick coating from Emerilware. Hey you got have at least one non-stick coating pan on hand, what good chef would not. So it might as well be the best.

Don't listen to the negative feedback!5
The ones who rate this cookware set either have something against Emeril or don't know how to cook! I've had this set for three years and it still looks brand new! Heavy, durable and easy to clean (use Barkeeper's Friend and you'll never soak or use elbow grease again!). Handles stay cool and remember to cook over medium heat because the conductivity is very fast! Get one non-stick pan for eggs and you're set! Buy this set and it's an investment. Other cheap sets you're going to replace every few years. Took me 3 sets of cheap non-stick pans to figure that one out!

Cooktop workhorses4
I have used my set daily for four years now.

A caveat; if you are expecting All-Clad heft, this set isn't for you. This set does have All-Clad quality, but in a lighter set.

Pro:
The pans heat evenly across the entire bottom. I am currently stuck using an electric range, but you couldn't tell that in the pans. There are not any burner matching rings burned into any of the pans. I tend to use the highest heat settings while cooking.
All pans have a lip that allows you to pour/transfer their contents without dribbling.
Pans are stainless steel, but easily seasoned so that many foods do not stick.
Size range is perfect for a small family. They are my goto pans for almost every meal.
The lids are glass and you can keep an eye on what's going on in them.

Cons:
I don't use the two smaller frying pans. I don't like the flared sides coming from a small pan bottoms. The small bases on these two pans mean that I leave exposed burner glowing red to the air. They're kinda like small flat bottom woks; only too small for a decent wok.
The lids recurve back into the pan, good for recycling condensation while cooking, bad for taking the lid off as they are guaranteed to collect a lot of condensation and to dump it when you are not expecting it. A major problem if you're frying and you dump the condensation in the oil. I find myself leaning the lid, handle up, somewhere so the water drains on the counter, not back into my pan or onto a burner.

Great Cookware!4
The Cuisinart Green Gourmet Eco-Friendly cookware is great! Heats evenly, does not need heavy oils, butter, or sprays to cook in (once seasoned). Cleans very easily also with little effort. I would have given these products a 5 star rating, but 2 of the pans I bought from Bed, Bath and Beyond had to be return/replaced because they had some strange shading in the coating. I was unsure if that would affect the life or use of the product and returned for replacement. I have had no problems with any other of these pans that I have bought elsewhere, it may have just been the batch sent to that store, so I can definitely say I recommend this cookware. One note, if you are a "put everything in your dishwasher" kind of person, you will not like how these look or wear if you do that. I use to be that way and have now gotten use to hand washing these wonderful pans and my new set of knives to extend their life and use. Go green!

Fantastic Cookware!!5
My wife recently began researching possible harmful items in our home, and asked me to get cookware without Teflon. Having grown up with non-stick pans, and having had a bad encounter with stainless steel, I was expecting this change to be a nightmare. Fortunately, I was pleasantly surprised.

I researched healthy alternatives to non-stick and came up with ionized aluminum, stainless steel, cast iron and ceramic coated cast iron. None of these seemed like a great choice. I then went to Bed Bath and Beyond to look at pans and discovered the Cuisinart Green line. After seeing the cast iron, I realized we probably would somehow damage our new glasstop stove as it was so heavy, so ceramic coated aluminum sounded great.

I settled on either Calphalon One infused ionized aluminum or the Cuisinart line. However, Bed Bath and Beyond is a bit confusing with the Cuisinart line. They sell Cuisinart "Greenware" as a set and Green "Gourmet" as individual pieces. The Green Gourmet set is a bit more expensive, and I was advised by the salesperson not to buy GreenWare as it has a rough bottom that may scratch a glass top stove. He offerred to order a Green Gourmet set, but I decided to buy one Caphalon and one GreenGourmet frying pan and test them before investing in a set. I honestly didn't expect either to work as well as my non-stick pans.

I generally only cook breakfast on the weekends, so I cooked what I know how to cook. I took both pans and set the burner at the same setting (6 on my stove which is the setting I used for the non-stick pans). I made pancake batter and used an organic olive oil cooking spray. Interestingly, the Cuisinart pan was too hot at 6 so the pancakes burned and I had to set the stove at 4 to get the same results as the 6 on the Calphalon pan. Both pans were great with the pancakes--better than my non-stick pan and probably the prettiest looking pancakes I have ever made. The Cuisinart pan was very easy to clean, but the Calphalon took a bit more effort. On another day, I cooked eggs. Again using the same Olive Oil spray. The eggs immediately stuck to the Calphalon pan. Having read instructions on using cast iron and waiting for the eggs to "release", I waited, and waited and waited. What a mess! I couln't get the burnt eggs off the pan. Of course as soon as I put the pan in the sink with water, they popped right off so clean up was easy. I'm sure there is a correct way to cook eggs on this pan, but I couldn't do it after 4 tries. On the Cuisinart Pan, I had no problem, and surprisingly, the eggs seemed to be easier to turn over than on our old Farberware non-stick.

So after this, I decided to get the Cuisinart and ordered from Amazon which was $50 cheaper than the price quoted by the Bed Bath and Beyond salesperson who offerred to order it for me.

Kitchen Aid pots & pans5
I've ordered a 10 pc. set of these previously in a different color/finish. I've been very pleased with them. This set is for a different house. The set has all the sizes that you need for basically anything you are cooking. They heat quick and clean up very nicely either by hand or in the dishwasher. I prefer the glass lids. The cost was very good for the set.

Great Cookware4
I am really impressed with this cookware. It only takes a minute or two to heat the food and it is also easy to clean.
The only problem I have with my set is that the lining is really thin. If you soak anything in the big pot it will leave a permanent stain.

Dishwasher proof...love it!5
The most important factor in my purchase of this product was they they can be washed in the dishwasher. With three kids, hand washing pots, pans and knives every night is just something I'm no longer willing to do. The manufacturer states that while these are dishwasher-proof, they still recommend hand washing. I have owned mine for a month now and washed them almost nightly in the dishwasher and they still look brand new. Quality is top-notch and worth every penny.

great pots with great price, i would've paid more!5
this pot set is quite wonderful! i love the cleanability and dishwasher-safe stainless and the nonstick is fantastic! it's been hard to find a set with both attributes. the nonstick never needs soaking to get off tough, dried-on foods. the lids on a few are interchangeable, so you don't have to have too many lids. the 2qt. pot lid fits the 8-inch skillet. the 3qt. pot, the 3.5 quart saute pan, and the stock pot all have the same diameter, so any of their lids can be used with the 10-inch skillet.
the only thing i would change is the make the 3.5 quart saute pan a little deeper, maybe by an inch or two. i realize that would also change the capacity for the better. the encapsulated aluminum bottom on all the pots and skillets really provides even heating.
i definitely think it's worth it to get this 14-piece over the 12-piece. the only difference is the 12-inch everyday pan and it's lid which has come in more handy than i thought. it's a great size for 4-6 and possibly 8 servings of meat.
if you're looking for quality stainless and nonstick, you'll love this set!

Wonderful cookware!5
After much search for reasonably priced, sturdy, quality-made cookware, I found it in Silverstone! I've had my cookware set for about 4 months and I love it. It cleans well, it's very scratch resistant (and I know because my husband sometimes forgets to use the plastic or wooden spoons when stirring stuff in my pots and I have to say I haven't seen any scratches from his abnesia of using the proper utensils.) They are well worth the price and are comparable to other more expensive cookware. You don't have to use high heat with these because the pots conduct heat evenly throughout. It's a good buy.

Wonderful Set!5
Very durable set! Love the rubber handles, easy to grip. Cleaning is very easy!

Love This Set!!!!5
Chef's Secret 14 Piece Element Cookware with Thermo Control Knobs
I grew up with Waterless Cookware. My parents felt that cookware was an important health investment-they have had their set for more than 20 years and still love them. I wanted a good set of my own but could not afford the "in home show" price tag. After reading many reviews and understanding what pieces I use most while cooking-I invested in this 14 piece set. I didn't think the set would hold to the same kind of standard that my parents and friends have, but thought it was better than my old non-stick set anyway. Wow!!!! Great quality and heavy weight just like the other kinds. I really couldn't have asked for a better set to fit my needs and the health benefits that I can give my family is just unbelievable for the price. I used the pans for a couple of months before I sat down to write this review, just to be sure I would still be as happy as I was when I got them. If you use the "in home show" suggestions for cooking you get the same results, but at the tune of a typical pan set price. I think that this was one of the best investments that I have made in a very long time. It isn't too good to be true this time. Don't hesitate to make this purchase.

Superb quality. Great price.5
My wife bought this set and boy are we pleased. The pots are very thick and the bottoms conduct and distribute heat very well. The fit and finish is beautiful. Everything is very well designed and built. The big pan makes a great wok if you like stir fry like we do. A friend of ours bought this set from a home party and paid WAY more than we did. Our only complaint is that we'd have liked some instructions on how to use the lid thermometers when cooking.

Amazon.com Review
Coated inside and out with rugged nonstick, Circulon 2 cookware eliminates the chore of scrubbing pots and pans. Inside their bottoms, Circulon's patented Hi-Low system of concentric grooves creates narrow ridges to take utensil abuse, leaving low, wide grooves unscathed to readily release food and ensuring long life for the nonstick coating. Beneath the nonstick is harder-than-steel anodized aluminum. Pot and pan bottoms are left uncoated to conduct heat quickly and prevent hot spots. Slip-resistant synthetic grips on riveted, polished, stainless-steel handles stay cool on the stovetop and go safely in an oven up to 350 degrees F. Heavyweight, 18/10 stainless-steel lids polished to a mirror finish present a gleaming contrast to the attractive, charcoal gray, enamel-like appearance of Circulon 2's nonstick exterior.

Works Great and YES, I Put Them In the Dishwasher5
Original review submitted March 2004:
My husband and I bought this pan set about 6 months ago. I realize they are not suppose to be put into the dishwasher because they are hard anodized aluminum and the manufacturer recommends that we hand wash them; However, I don't live in the 1800s and don't have the time, nor the desire to scrub pots and pans! I have been putting them in the dishwasher under the normal wash cycle about 4-5 times a week. It doesn't appear that the dishwashing has harmed them, in any event, I figure I'll take my chances. In terms of cooking with them, they work absolutely great and I definitely recommmend this set. The only thing that bothers me about this product line is that the 10 pc set does not include a 1 1/2 qt covered saucepan, only the 12 pc set does. I can't even buy it separately either. Other then that, I have no complaints.

Update: June 2005 As I said in my original review submission, my husband and I have been putting them in the dishwasher to clean because we're lazy and willing to take risks. Now, over 1 1/2 years later from the time of purchase, they still "look" brand new but in terms of "use" they are beginning to stick a LITTLE. For example, when I now use a pan to make scrambled eggs in them the first set of eggs that I cook do not stick and turn out good, but the second set of eggs and any thereafter will need extra oil/butter in the pan to prevent them from sticking. So the dishwashing probably has effected the non stick coating on the pans, but barely. Aside from this issue, they still work GREAT! We still put them in the dishwasher to clean, and don't regret it one bit!

Fantastic Value5
After long research and many visits to different stores, I found the Circulon 2 10 piece set. This set offers everything I was looking for. It has the durability of being hard-adonized with a nicer look than some of the more expensive brands. Probably the best feature of this cookware set is the new non-stick that it has. Not only does food not stick to the pan when cooking but clean-up was an absolute breeze ( hand washed ). I highly reccomend this set, wether you are a novice in the kitchen or a seasoned home chef. You will find this great cookware.

A Batchelor5
I have had the ten inch skillet for about six months and it is by far the best I have had in my thirty-five years of cooking. I overheat it. I catch it on fire. It looks like new. Non stick is fine. A teaspoon of oil and nothing (I mean nothing) will stick. Circulon 2 is great stuff, period. I was so impressed, I wrote this.

Customer Reviews

Great! Fast heating and dishwaher safe!5
I have been using this cookware for a few weeks and I am very happy with them. We have a glass top stove and they are very flat on the bottom making for excellent heat conduction. Water boils twice as fast as the old pans we were using.

They go in the dishwasher and come out clean and shiny. We'll see how they look over time, but so far, they still look like new. The glass tops have a metal edge around to protect them. I love being able to see my food without removing the top.

The only complaint I have is that the insides stain a little bit when making tea, but it's no big deal.

Very good cookware4
Not the easiest to clean but this very functional and handsome cookware set is the best stuff I have had for many a year. I am glad I got it and all I need is more vinegar to keep it spotless.

Customer Reviews

Almost excellent4
The three containers are convenient. It also comes with a lid and hence very useful. Maintenance is not elaborate. However, the frying pan tends to be a bit unstable which leads to slightly uneven heating on one side of the pan. The spoons are mere add ons. They can be used as serving spoons but not to aid in cooking. The handle is also made of plastic and hence be careful if you leave it long enough in contact with the hot container. Overall a very useful adjunct to the kitchen.

The Ideal Nonstick Cookware set5
This set is the most amazing one I have worked with. I have used various other nonstick pans, stainless steel, cast iron... and i prefer these pans over all. One thing to note is that the nonstick surface scratches right off of these pans if you use any kind of metal. As the pans have exposed metal on them it is not a good idea to stack them on top of each other or to let pile up in the sink. This has not at all been a problem for me because the cleanup on these pans is super fast. Get yourself a set of bamboo kitchen utensils in addition to this set and your in business for some eco-friendly low toxicity cooking.

GREAT set5
I love, love, love these pans. I was looking for something that was not teflon because of the negative health effects I have read about, and this cookware is a wonderful non-stick alternative. The instructions say you can use little (or no) butter/grease etc., but I always use just a touch depending on what I'm cooking, and NOTHING sticks to these pans. They wash like a breeze so no problem not putting them in the dishwasher. They seem to brown more evenly and heat more effectively than my other, cheaper pots and pans. I would highly recommend to anyone willing to spend the money. I am looking to add additional pieces not included in this set.

Customer Reviews

Good value4
I've had these less than a week but here's my first impression: heavy and thick i.e. good quality. Beautiful and expensive looking. Thicker than my KitchenAid set with gray silicone handles. The 8" pan has a smaller cooking base than my 8" KitchenAid and is shallower. I grilled panini on it with olive oil and the oil was a bit difficult to clean off. It's true that the handles don't get hot. With stainless steel, you have to cook at a lower temp than aluminum or iron so it's difficult to get the steel handles hot. I'm very pleased with this set. At $20, a great value.

Even heating but scratchs easier than I thought4
I have always wanted to try calphalon but the price at bed bath and beyond was too high.. so I figured that this would be a good starter set for me since I like to saute veggies alot. ok my review is this.. it heats great.. and handle stays cool but it scratches easy which is a bummer.. once your wash it you notice it.. now to companies credit it does say do not use metal utensils. well I had a used a butter knife to apply butter and move it around the pan and viola scratches marks.. so its not the compaines fault.. it is not a faulty pan.. just read and follow the instructions..

Must buy.... great deal5
this is a GREAT deal... I would have bought just the pan for $20. Great for 1-2 person meals. Calphalon is a reputable brand.

Customer Reviews

LOVE THIS COOKWARE5
I LOVE this cookware set. Water seems to boil faster than usual & other things seem to cook a little quicker. Especially with stuff like spaghetti, my cooking time has actually decreased. And, I don't have areas of the pan that burn worse than other parts like I've had with other cookware sets. Clean-up is also really easy.

There was one thing that I was VERY surprised about though. I'm someone who usually feels the heat (when touching the handles, for instance) more than other people seem to but with this cookware, I never have to use a hot pad. I don't know what the substance is that they have covering the handles but it's really nice to just be able to pull stuff off the stove & not worry about getting burned.

I recommend this cookware to everyone!

non stick doesn't stick3
At this point in the life span of non stick cookware I thought all non stick cooking surface material would stay on the pan. I was very surprised after only a couple of months of sporadic use to see a nick in the material of the small fry pan. I dug at it a bit with my fingernail and it continued to peel right off the pan. It is too bad because the pans look nice and work nicely. (the rest of the pans are holding up but have not even had as much use as the small fry pan.

Great product for money but shop around @ Big Lot first!!5
We needed to purchase a new cook set due to recent moving and my wife and I did not much of shopping beacause of our busy schedule. I nomally find good priced products from amazon so I did a quick search and bought this set. We both love the product very much. It's very durable and heats up fast. The color red is outstanding with our kitchen decoration. About a week after I bought this on amazon my wife had to stop by "big lot" here in our town and saw the same set for $15 less! The only thing different was the color red wasn't available at "big lot". My suggestion to anybody who reading this review is do more shop around at ur local discount stores such as "big lot" or similar places before you purchase from amazon.

J.A. Henckels International Classic Clad 10-Piece Cookware Set

Product Description

Henckels International Clad Cookware is tri-ply cookware composed of 18/10 stainless, aluminum and magnetic stainless. The middle aluminum layer extends from the base up the sides of the pan so the heat is conducted evenly throughout the pan. This increases the cooking performance of the pan and eliminates hot spots, which can burn foods because of uneven heating when cooking. The stainless steel material on the interior cooking surface and outside of the pan is high strength, resistant to rusting and does not react when in contact with food.

Amazon.com Review
Clad inside and out in gleaming stainless steel, the pots and pans in this set get a new kitchen up and running in no time. Included are one- and two-quart lidded saucepans, a three-quart lidded sauté pan, six-quart lidded stock pot, and open 8- and 10-inch frying pans. The long handles, riveted for strength and curved for comfort and control, stay cool thanks to their hollow design and V-connection. Cooks who like to hang pots and pans within easy reach will appreciate the generously sized hole in the handle ends. Whisks, spoons, and cleaning brushes all glide smoothly along the curved inner contour of the pans, and the stainless-steel lids fit snugly on the flared, easy-pour rims.

Customer Reviews

Very happy with these5
I purchased this set because I was replacing my 16 year old radiant cooktop with a new induction cooktop and most of my older cookware was not induction capable.

I decided that these were a reasonable alternative to the more expensive All Clad cookware and, at this price, if they didn't work out well I could always afford to replace them.

I used them originally with the old radiant cooktop and was quite impressed with how quickly they heated, how well the cooked, and how easy they were to clean. I had expected stainless steel to be hard to clean but these are not. At times I will need to soak them for an hour or so prior to cleaning but most of the time that is not necessary. So far we have used regular dishwashing liquid to clean them.

I'm even more impressed with their performance with my new GE induction cooktop and I particularly like the interior volume markings. It is amazing how I can "titrate" the level of simmering/bubbling/boiling with the combination of the induction cooktop and this cookware.

In short, these are very cost effective, functional, and attractive.

Excellent design5
The ergonomic handles make these pots and pans much better than any other similar pots and pans available. The handles really do stay cool, and they make the pans a lot easier to lift and move. These pans heat very evenly. They do not have a nonstick surface, a feature I prefer. I have a glass cook top stove and usually use a medium low setting for foods that are cooked without water. Baking soda works well for cleaning any residue that sticks to the pan when a higher heat is used. I never use scratchy pads or commercial scouring powders to clean these pans, just baking soda on a dish cloth or liquid dish detergent and warm water. The lids are very convenient, both to use and to store. I prefer these metal lids to the glass lids that come with many pans.

Excellent, superb quality cookware!5
I've owned this set of cookware for over two years, and I love them! The packaging was the first sign of quality. Everything is individually placed in plastic bags, then placed in cloth bags. They are superb quality, sturdy, very well-constructed, good looking, heat evenly, and I expect them to last a very, very long time. They've tarnished slightly, but it does not affect the results, and may be caused by occassionally cleaning them in the dishwasher. They clean up nicely for non-non-stick pans. :) They are a bit pricey, but if you want long lasting cookware that produces consistent results without requiring special care, treat yourself to this awesome set!

Great purchase!5
Very good quality and relatively inexpensive when factoring in the rebate. These heat up fast and clean very easily. The size of each pot/pan is perfect for the normal person and well suitable for the single person. I would highly recommend purchasing this set or any of the Farberware cookware as the quality for the price is uncomparable.

Customer Reviews

Nice set, only has 10 pieces, not 12 as title suggests.5
Received our set in 4 days, and the quality of the pots and pans are vastly superior to most others in the same price catagory. Amazon photo only displayed 10 pieces, which is exactly what we received. The box indicated it was a 12 piece set, but the spoon and spachula were both missing. If you are looking for T-Fal French cookwear, this may or may not be it since the box says made in China, Hungary, France and Italy. Did not say made in France anywhere on the pans like our old one. Will be interesting to see if these last as long as the French made pans. In any case, a nice buy for under $100, especially with so much other product out in the marketplace from other manufactures that is essentially useless junk after 4 months use.

Unbeatable price for this set5
Love the vent in the lids, also the cushioned pan handles. Our other pans have handles without protection that become too hot to hold when you cook with them. We almost bought from Kohl's for $150+ on sale but decided to wait. Glad we did.

Nice product!4
Nice product, though I wish it had the reinforced teflon in the pots like it has in the pans. I didn't realize it wouldn't but t-fal makes a superb product and I am very happy otherwise. I made the mistake of buying stainless steel before finally breaking down and buying another t-fal set. I'm glad I did it though, cooking is so much more enjoyable now!

Nice cookware4
For the price, I have to admit this is not bad cookware. It's not your top of the line, but I wanted something dishwasher safe, with side pour spouts and I got exactly what I wanted. Don't know how long it will last, but even if it's only a few years that's okay. I didn't give it 5 stars because it's just not 5 star quality cookware; however, it heats evenly and so far it does well in my dishwasher. Other cookware that is colored on the outside seems to fade over time in a dishwasher and this being stainless-steel I don't have that problem. It is teflon coated so that is another plus providing it doesn't wear off - only time will tell.

Nice weight- pouring spouts wonderful!5
I have been using many months and am very pleased I purchased. The bottoms are heavy enough to use on the smooth glass cook-tops without scorching. The steam/ pouring spouts are great! No more boil overs or losing whatever you are trying to drain down the sink. The lid on the largest pot is NOT a good fit for any of the skillets. I purchased both the 10 and 12" lids and additional 2qt pan. I have not used metal utensils except for serving from the pans. They did pass my usual test of all nonstick surfaces- a medium pressure scrapping of a metal cooking utensil across the surface. CAUTION- If you have a black glass cook-top, the bottoms will cause aluminum marks, but not after washed the first time. I made the mistake unpacking mine on top of my Jenn Aire black cook-top. I wouldn't change a thing, except that I do wish the open stock lids were available with the glass inserts also, as the open stock lids are not as heavy weight stainless. They are about like the traditional Revere sets. I have used the traditional Revere (all stainless) set for 20 years and was VERY pleased to find this set much heavier and more substansial. The stainless is so shiny that I do find myself being over protective so that it stays that way!

Revere cookware4
The only problem I have with the cookware is the 3 skillets don't have lids to go with them and I have tried to order them but I am unable to get them because they are out of stock.
