Review 1:
So far so good. It cleans well after cooking, food is not sticking (both fry pans and stailess pots), have not noticed any staining and the glass lids fit well. It cooks evenly and heats up quickly (I use less heat than with the old pots). Only negative is a handle got too hot once but I think it's because it was left too close to another burner. Otherwise the handles warm up a bit but not to the point of needing pot holders. Review 2: I am VERY pleased with the purchase. I shopped around town...Calphalon (? Spelling?), etc. The price was right and so is the quality. You will love it. If you learn to keep the flame turned down...you'll be fine and not burn anything. The bottoms of the pots sit really nice and heavy on a flat top electric stove. You get so many pieces. Different ones. I love the casserole one. I mixed up a casserole in it...cooked it in the oven...put it right on the table. It was so nice. I can cook crab legs, to pasta to soup in the stock pot. OH...the larger sauce pot comes with a steamer/strainer!! Oh I just love that one. Then the steamer part fits the smaller pots. Problems so far I encountered a if you use the dishwasher and have hard water, as we do, it will spot sliqhtly (that doesn't bother me at all) and the only other thing is that if you are boiling something such as water...the lids will bounce a little and spit. But...I had that with my other stuff. So, it doesn't bother me either, too much. I'm not sure that it wouldn't do that with any type of lids. Oh, and I was really surprised that the lids/handles didn't get get that hot. I still use the mitts...just in case. Overall, you can't go wrong with this stuff. It cleans up nicely too. Look, my foods used to stick to the NON Stick stuff! The reason I went to the stainless steel was because I kept hearing bad stuff about the coated cookware. If you get it...let me know how you like it. Remember...keep the flame down and you'll be fine. I cooked cheese sauce...AND DIDN'T BURN IT!! It's a pretty set. |
