My family has been using this cookware for more than 3 and 1/2 years. I wish I had purchased Anolon Professional sooner.
Our cooking needs are mostly filled by this set, along with a few other Anolon items. We also have a few "regular" (not non-stick) pots and skillets-Magnalite brand- for when we want to use much higher heat. It IS pretty much a fact that all of the non-stick cookware, even the more expensive ones, can be damaged by overheating. When we want higher heat, we use the Magnalite pots and skillets. NOTE: I really like the Magnalite stuff 'cause it lasts 'forever'. But, it is much more difficult to clean. THAT is the reason we added the Anolon Professional Cookware to our kitchen.
The long handles on the Anolon really do stay cool when used on the stove top. Obviously the "D" handles on the saucepans and the large stockpot are not insulated and require caution (and a hotpad) when moving. All the glass lids are really nice. They seal very well around the top of the pans and I do like the see-through ability over solid lids. We do put the lids in the dishwasher, but not the Anolon pots and skillets.
Some other reviewers have expressed disappointment with the non-stick coating being damaged. I would bet that this is from overheating. All I can say about that is... we've used this cookware set for more than 3 and 1/2 years and the surfaces are as good as the day we bought them. I will admit that we did discard some Anolon cookware about 12 years ago that showed deterioration of the non-stick surface. These were obviously an earlier vintage than this model, and I wouldn't fight too hard with someone who suggested that we had overheated the earlier skillets. It was for that reason that I began purchasing the Magnalite.
If I were to criticize the Anolon line, it would be for a couple of small gripes. First the handles on all the glass lids are not insulated and do get hot! Of course, since the all aluminum lids of the Magnalite also did the very same thing, this wasn't really a surprise. I long ago learned to reach for a hotpad before removing a lid. My other gripe is more annoying. The rivets that join the handles to the pats and pans are NOT non-stick, making them somewhat difficult to clean. This is especially true of the skillets where the rivets are almost always coming into contact with whatever you are cooking. Generally, we cope with this by spraying the rivets liberally with a non-stick spray, like Pam.
At the price these are available from Amazon, you probably can't go wrong. A single 12-inch skillet of Calphalon from Macy's is almost as much as this whole set.

Wow this is great cookware! I love everything about it. The weight is perfect, nice & heavy but not awkward to work with. Like the glass lids so that you can see what's happening inside the pot without lifting & loosing heat. This is beautiful cookware, I only wish I had space for a rack to display it when I'm not cooking. The nonstick works great, I have used my Analon for about 2 months now & so far nothing has stuck to it or even burned! That's a big deal for me, I'm not the greatest or most experienced cook.
The only drawback is that it's not dishwasher safe, but no big deal, clean up is so easy. Just a nylon scrubber, water & a little soap...cleans up in seconds!
I would defiantly recommend this cookware to anyone of any cooking skill level.

The pans work well but when I purchased them it wasn't clear that the handles aren't heat resistant. The covers and pot handles get very hot. You need a pot holder to lift a cover or shake a skillet while cooking. The first time I used them it was very clear very quickly.

We had analon for over 10 years - real workhorses. Things were dropped, broken and scratched over the years, so these were meant as a replacement. Out of the box, the surface is great and the feel is good, but the handle and lid get too hot! I've never seen anything like that for this kind of money. Very disappointing.
