 "Excellent value & quality" 2010-02-23
By Susanne (Lexington, SC United States)
I have been extremely pleased with this set of cookware! It heats evenly, cleans up exceptionally well, (inside and out), and they look great. Only minor negative comments, which aren't really so much "negatives", but more like "things to know":



The heat-proof grips on the pot lid are kind of small. If you aren't careful, it's easy to burn yourself on the metal part of the handle.



The instructions say to never use non-stick spray; I have found that it's almost impossible to cook eggs without them sticking. I try not to add unnecessary fat so didn't want to use oil or butter. I've finally broken down and used cooking spray and it hasn't caused any problems. (instructions warned that a residue would build up)



I agree with another reviewer that the sizes of the pots are a bit small and odd. The smallest one is really too small for just about everything. (it's too small to heat up canned soup!) There's a big gap between the 3 quart pot and the big stock pot (I think it's an 8 quart). However, Amazon has a 4.5 quart stockpot that matches this set, and I think that will fill in the gap nicely.



I LOVE LOVE LOVE the large, covered skillet. I've not seen a piece like this in most "sets" -- it's a great piece to have.



For the money, you simply can't beat this set. I would give 5 stars except for the odd sizes of the pots, and perhaps the fact that I've burned my hand on the lid handle more than once!

By Weston Kruckeberg (ft. wayne, IN)
great heating surface, cooks evenly, easy grip handles, variety of sizes for all kind of cooking, beware though we used a plastic spoon with a metal handle and the the metal handle hit the pan and chipped the pan, never, never use metal anything with these pans, and never put them in the dishwasher, if you want to keep that great finish

 "Love this set!" 2010-02-08
By J. Lamoglia (Oakland, TN)
This Kitchen Aid set is exactly what a cook would hope to have in a kitchen. I've had this set for 5 years now, and it still looks brand new. I can lift the pots by the handles without burning my hand, and the lids fit securely when cooking. I always hand wash them and have never ever seen rust or peeling. It's a high-quality product for a great price. Well worth it.

 "Excellent value" 2010-02-07
By Janice M (Torrance, CA)
We purchased this set as a Christmas gift for our daughter and her family. When she opened the gift we were all very pleased with the appearance of the cookware as well as the weight of the pans. The cookware has been used on a daily basis since Chritmas and is performing well. No scorched or burned foods such as you might get from using pans without a heavy bottom. The fact they they should not be put in the dishwasher is not an issue because these pans clean up so easily. It is nice to have attractive cookware that can go directly from stove or oven to the table. I would not hesitate to make this purchase again. What a wonderful wedding gift it would make.

 "Best cookware ever!!!!" 2010-01-20
By Kimberly F. Hatley
I just received his set about a week ago. Not a long time to test it just yet but giving my review on the quality thus far. But first, let me say I ordered this set through Amazon on a Friday afternoon and received it Saturday morning! I was floored at how quickly it arrived...and with free shipping! Ok, so for the set. I am no regular cook but want to start so I did weeks and weeks of research before settling on this set. I wanted a set that had 12 pieces, clear lids and the covered handles and that could go in the over. I researched between stainless or hard anodized and it seemed the hard anodized was even stronger than stainless yet had the non-stick benefit. I opened the box and was leary of what the pans might feel like in my hand as I had never seen these in person. This is a super nice heavy set of cookware! I feel like a gourmet chef using them! They are very substantial and the hard anodized surface is all one piece inside, out, and bottom. Very quality stuff! I have only cooked with them once so far and was so impressed with the clean-up. Very easy, even easier than my old non-stick set. I highly recommend this set to the beginning or very experienced cooks!
