NOT for induction

I’m so bummed. I am in love with the look of these. I purchased the white with gold hardware. They were exactly what I wanted! But as others described, they do not work on induction. I tried to boil a pot of water in the 3qt. And after 35 mins I was worried it was my new range. Tried my enameled cast iron, water boiled in 3 minutes. (I have a Frigidaire gallery air fry induction range for reference.) I think maybe the description needs updated to say might work on *some* induction ranges.

We are sorry to hear about your experience, HL. This cookware features a stainless-steel stay-flat base designed for use with induction cooking surfaces. The diameter of the pan's induction base should be equal to or larger than the size of the induction element one is using. If the pan's induction base is much smaller than the induction heating element, the induction sensor may not recognize the pan and will not heat. Please know that you can exchange or return this set anytime as part of the Member’s Mark 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. Please contact Member Support at (888) 301-0332 if you need any assistance.

I wanted to love them. I couldn't!

I bought 2 sets, one for my weekend home both on the gray color, I returned one set because at home we have an induction stove top and at first it seemed that they worked (although I had read they didn't) but while trying to cook with them I realized they don't heat up enough. It's like cooking in slow motion... I should return the other set but I didn't keep the box. I may try anyway because I also noticed food sticks to them really easy which is exactly what shouldn't happen with ceramic pots. Stuck scrambled eggs took me 5 minutes to clean! They are beautiful but only for looks, don't try cooking on them! Sad and dissapointed.

I had high hopes..

After waiting a very long time(over 6 months) for the color I wanted to be back in stock, I finally purchased this set. I love the Caraway pans, but I can not justify spending that much, so I was so excited to find something similar for a much better price. These looked beautiful when I got them, but unfortunately, they just aren't holding up, and I don't cook every day. I take obsessive care of these to the point that I hand wash them and bought wood and silicone cooking utensils. There are scratches and tiny burn looking marks inside on the ceramic coating that appeared after only a few uses. The cream colored paint has areas where the paint has browned, so they don't look as nice now, and like other reviews mention, the handles do get got, especially the lids. I am trying to live a more toxic free life, especially with 3 young kids, but now I don't feel comfortable using them, knowing that there are scratches and marks in the ceramic coating.

Induction cooktop will not recognize 2 of the pans

Just received my order last week. Negative- Went to season the pans before using them, and the two smallest pans will not work on my induction cook top. I haven't had that happen with any pan before. So essentially I won't be able to use two of the pans, but at this price point, maybe that's ok?! Positive- they're beautiful and are truly nonstick (scrambled egg cleanup was a breeze). Only using low/medium heat will take some getting used to.

Kind of Induction Compatible

We have a Thermador induction cook-top. All our other pots/pans work reliably on the cook-top. We purchased these for the non-stick feature. Unfortunately on our cooktop the pans only "kind of" work. The cooktop senses the pan and we can set a temperature, but eventually the cooktop says the cookware is not induction compatible and we have to lift the pan and try again... and again. Not sure as I did not cut the pans apart, but I assume the ferrous metal component is too thin to be reliable as induction compatible. Too bad as the set is pretty, and a good value.

Hi Jimmy, this cookware features a stainless-steel stay-flat base designed for use with induction cooking surfaces. The diameter of the pan's induction base should be equal to or larger than the size of the induction element you are using. If the pan's induction base is much smaller than the induction heating element, the induction sensor may not recognize the pan and will not activate (heat).

Buy These Pots! Be Leary of Negative Reviews

I bought two sets of these pots. I read the negative reviews and am confused by them. The name brand pots which are double/triple in price have the same instructions, details and aesthetics as these. The negative reviews complain about the utensils you have to use, the suggested temperature and the recommended hand washing as opposed to dishwashing, etc. - but they do not note that name brand provides the same advice. These are direct quotes from the name brand pots: "Ceramic can hold heat more efficiently than traditional pans, so use pans on low to medium heat when cooking. Overheating can wear away the non-stick coating." Another quote from the name brand - "Avoid using oil sprays or cooking aerosols for greasing pans to preserve the naturally slick coating." Another - "Metal utensils with rough edges may damage your non-stick coating. Stick to wooden, silicone, plastic, or nylon products." Another - "Clean with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge or dishcloth to keep your pans looking fresh! Avoid the dishwasher as the detergent can damage the non-stick coating." Another referencing the oven - "Our cookware can handle up to 550°F without breaking a sweat." Sam's club recommends 450 degrees. Another - "Yes, all non-stick coatings will slowly wear off given frequent use. " You get the picture. The name brand has the same type of instructions as Sam's pots. Theirs do come with a storage system. Hope Sam's adds that feature. Maybe the other reviews were not aware of the instructions on the name brand. I have boiled in them, used them on the stovetop and oven. So far so good. Waiting on the pink ones to be back in stock.

Nice while it lasted

I bought these back in January and have used each one a few times. Unfortunately the pot and pan that I commonly use already loss their non-stick at about the 3 month mark 😞 I made sure to use silicone utensils and even followed the instructions before I ever used them. Given the price compared to Our Place and Caraway which is what I was originally researching to buy until I found these, I guess they're ok since they're more than a fraction of the cost of those. And also if you get the white be warned it will stain easily.

Do Not Buy

I did everything as instructed prior to using these pans and pots. Never used metal cooking utensils. The first use was great. It was completely downhill after that. The nonstick didn’t even last after one use. I couldn’t even fry an egg without it sticking everywhere. I got the white and gold which is a gorgeous set however it stains terribly. You cannot get the stains out with anything. You also get a terrible burn marks on the bottom of the pan. Definitely do not recommend. It only looks good but definitely does not use well.
