I have had the set for a month now and have enjoyed using it. This cookware is well designed, has a good solid weight to it but not too heavy, it transfers heat evenly and efficiently. Cooking with it takes some getting used to, if you are used to using cheap pots and pans like me you will find that a lower heat setting is needed than you are used to using. Clean up is easy too. Just put warm water with a drop or two of dish soap in the pan when you are done cooking, leave it until the meal is eaten and the water is cool, then wash and dry by hand or put them in the dishwasher using non lemon detergent, and heated dry. They come out of the dishwasher shining with no spots.

I have had this set for about a month now, and I am very satisfied. I bought the red, and they fit well with the decor in my kitchen. The red grips stay cool during cooking, and the pots cook very evenly. I even had a few scares where I thought food had burned to the bottom, but they cleaned very well. Just be sure to dry the pots after each use, especially if you want to display them because they get water stains (as with all stainless steel items). Overall great quality for the price, and will suit the needs of an avid cook or for beginners.

I ordered these on Friday morning and they were here by Wednesday afternoon. Overstock has amazingly affordable and fast shipping, I LOVE IT! I cooked with these last night and they give off an even heat. If your used to cooking with a non stick product stainless steel takes a little getting used to. You don't need to use as high of heat to cook with. If you do cook with too high of heat things may begin to stick a little. Easy clean up and if something does stick just make a little cascade paste and it will scrub right out and be shinny and new again. The bottoms of these pans are nice and thick and very comparable to much higher priced cookware I have used. Overall I am very pleased and I am ordering my mother a set as a gift.

If you have no money in the bank, are a cook and need a "full" set, this is worth the investment. But if you CAN spend a couple more dollars, do buy something more decent that you will love. I bought this set several months ago and it has so far served its purpose. I was very disappointed when I first received it because I expected something homey and cute, and the set is put together like something that "is supposed to serve a purpose". The screws on the lids are fat and bold, the rubber (or whatever the material is) on the handles is very cheap but it does serve the purpose of the handles not getting hot. The quality of the metal itself is not fantastic either - it just does not feel good. Again, do not buy it if you love to cook and are just a little low on your funds right now. Better invest into one or two more expensive pieces that you can cook everything in. But if you have to have a full set and are on a strict budget, it is fully operational.

Ordered this set because I wanted to change out some of my old pots & pans. I chose a stainless steel cookware because of sanitation, safety, and durability after many washings. After trying it, I am very pleased. After cooking meats the first time in the frying pan, the surface had a splotchy look even after scrubbing and washing. I was not sure why this happened. However, to solve this, I used a metal cream cleaner and it came out like brand new. The set is well built. The silicone handles are heat resistant for up to 400 degrees. I love to cook and I love this cookware set. The cooking was very evenly heated and all of my foods came out very good. I am not afraid to damage this set like I was the nonstick. Now I can use a scrubby in it to clean out the good without fear of destroying it.

I really love this set...the quality is great and they clean up well even after a bit of scorching.

This is a very good product. My recipient was very happy with it. I as well enjoy this product. I will continue to buy products from this company.

i really like the set -looks aesthetically pleasing, i like to store them strategically in the kitchen, they add a little something extra to the overall look. they also work wonderfully to cook in...keeping the heat at medium low. necessary to wipe down water stains to keep them shinny!! a good product!! :)

I was worried these would look tacky but they actually came out very nice. Burned a little the first time I used it but I think that might of been my fault. lol I would buy this item again for sure.

I am very PLEASED with my new pots & pans. I recommend them highly. Thanks!

The set features 18-10 Stainless Steel construction that makes each piece feel substantial. The design also aids in convection and, thus, requires less heat from the stove top. The only thing I would have liked would have been a 12 inch rather than a 10 inch skillet but with that said, the 10 inch skillet is a great piece.

If the pots and pans are dried with a towel after washing, they stay looking great, especially if the washing water is hard water, as in my case. Stainless steel cookware seems to cook a littel slower than nonstick cookware. Cleaning is not as easy as with non-stick, but using Bar Keepers Friend cleaning powder will get rid off the stains effectively. It works great and safe.

I was very happy with this cookware. It came in a timely manner. It has good weight. I gave it to my daughter as her house warming gift. She loves them.

This set of stainless steel cookware is very nice. Heavy bottoms- they clean easily- very good buy.

This cookware is excellent quality without the high cost of comparable "brand name" sets. The handles are riveted and the bottoms are thick and distribute heat well on a smooth-top stove. My preference was black handles but I bought red because black was out of stock, and am happy with the quality and performance of the cookware.

This cook wear was purchased for a young person for their first home. It was exactly what they wanted. It is sturdy and should last while allowing a full range of cooking. I was very pleased with it.

Though not the heaviness of expensive, and heavier stainless, this cookware is fashionable with its colorful trim and very serviceable for a single dweller who doesn't use them as often as a family would. Some difficulty removing stains, even though the pan has been scrubbed resulted in the "GOOD" rating.

• How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Very bright red as expected on the plastic trim.
• Please tell us about the quality of the product. The quality was good for the price.

Be careful. DON'T BURN YOURSELF. The rubber protections on the pots a misleading. They get super hot. Yes I've never seen rubber get hot before either but it's just poor quality. I also never seen water take for ever to boil. Must have something to do with the specific material they use. I would NOT recommend this product not even for little use.
