The trick I learned about these pans after watching lots of videos is to preheat the pans for about 3 minutes on MD heat, try a couple drops of water, if the water dances, they are ready to use! After that they are non stick, easy to clean, cooks evenly! These are safe. No chemicals! I was scared at first! No regrets! Will buy more in the future!

I am very disappointed so far. I have used the 8" frying pan one time. I followed the instructions in the manual and the pan not only stained all on the inside, but the food I was cooking stuck to it and had to be scraped off with a spatula. I am angry that I paid several hundred dollars for a commercial grade set of cookware, and my first time using it was not a good experience.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone who does a lot of cooking, my old cookware was passed it's prime and in need of a replacement, so I was very excited about this Ninja EverClad Stackable Commercial Grade Stainless Steel Cookware. This 12- piece set contains every pot and pan I need and also comes with matching stainless steel lids, a huge plus compared to glass. Everything in this set stacks in a way to not scratch other cookware; the lids have a groove to fit in the top handle and the pans have an additional hook on the side that latches to the lip of the pan below, so nothing is just laying inside of another. I have not seen this on other cookware, but this stacking design is thought out and works great. The cookware is heavy duty and well made, and I'm sure will last for many years if properly taken care of. I had a combination of stainless steel and nonstick pans previously and did need to adjust a bit when cooking with these. I made a few dishes in the fry pans and felt they took longer to heat up and get an even heat throughout compared to my other pans. This may have to do with my stove since my gas burners appear to be on the smaller side when I compared with other stoves, and it is possible that a smaller burner is not the best to evenly heat the pans in this cookware set. I also found this to stick more than I am used to even when adjusting the amount and type of oil I use, but again may have to do with my stove top not having the biggest burners to disperse heat. However, the saucepans all brought my liquids to a boil faster than my other pans, which was nice when making dishes like pasta or quinoa, so I guess I will just need to learn how each pans react to my stove. I previously did not have a saute pan and this 5 qt size is just perfect for making large family dishes and a great addition to my kitchen. This cookware does take a bit of work to clean when something gets stuck on and, since they are stainless steel, they are a bit heavy to hand wash and I would not recommend to those who would find this to be a problem. I would recommend these though to anyone who wants a durable set for years to come and does not mind the bit of extra care needed to clean a surface that will get some food stuck on it.

Excidedly bought these thinking i had 12 new pots/pans. Was a tad disappointed to know it was a 12 piece including pots, pans, and the lids. But still good quality cookware!

These are nice heavy duty pans that cook evenly and clean easily. They look great and conveniently stack in our kitchen cabinets.

Great pans I was very skeptical at first thinking they would be hard to clean . They do not stick and are super easy to clean.

Very pleased so far. Great for searing, sauces, easy to care for. These will change the way you cook!

Very happy with these! Most even heat I have ever seen! Easy clean up!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This cookware set has all the different sizes of pots and pans that you will need. I like that the pots are easy to stack. I also like that the lids stack on top of each other so that it takes up less space. The cookware set also works in the oven so this is a nice feature.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I already have so many Ninja products at home that we regularly buy so I was so excited to add a set of stainless steel cookware products to my kitchen! Especially since watching a certain FX TV show about a certain chef recently! These are beautiful pots and pans and provide such a wonderful professional feel and look. They're easy to cook with and super easy to clean. They feel very sturdy too with a great design.
