Perfect Set - Great Quality
I first tried this line by purchasing the one quart covered pan and fell in love with the product.
I've since purchased the 3.5qt, the 6qt, the 8qt and most recently this starter set.
These pans don't warp, don't develop hot spots to scorch food, have inside measures, have sturdy lids that fit well, are coded to help match the lids and clean up as easily as non-stick pots.

Highly recommend these to anyone who enjoys cooking and wants the best for their buck.
Great value but not without some downsides.
This is an awesome value for the price. Heats evenly and quickly, looks wonderful, cleans up easily, and all the other great things you'd expect from good quality clad cookware.
The only problems that I have with it are:

Good quality, good starting set
I bought this as a starter set a month ago and built up my collection with other pots from the line. I was searching for something along the line of All-clad, so that the 3 metal layers created the entire pot, not just a circle on the bottom. The All-Clad were a bit out of my price range and too heavy for me to lift when I tested in the store, and that was empty. This set isn't quite as heavy but retains the good quality I was looking for. I really like the handles as well, very comfortable and stay cool as long as heat from a neighboring burner doesn't reach it. They cook evenly, with low heat as suggested and anything that sticks on, comes off easily after soaking in hot sudsy water. I would definitely recommend this line off pots if you ... Read More
