I had always wanted to switch my o stainless cookware but hesitated because I was afraid food would stick to it. But as the nonstick coating was starting to flake off of my very expensive Scanpan cookware, I decided I’d rather deal with sticking than potentially eating Teflon. I’m so glad I made the switch! This cookware set is super heavy and high quality. I noticed that immediately. I read that if you season the pans and then clean them properly, they will work just as well as non-stick, and that has been my experience. I’ve cooked eggs and pancakes, which are some of the worst foods for sticking, with no problems at all. Usually, I can just put some hot water in the pan after cooking, and then set it back on the burner until it cools, and then just wipe the pan right out. No soap or anything required. I haven’t even had to re-season them yet. If you do manage to burn something into your pan and get it really stuck, a little bar keepers friend and a dishcloth will clean it right up. I love this cookware and I’m so glad I made the switch!

I really like cooking with these pans. I bought them because I am expecting a new induction range to be installed in a couple of weeks. I am disappointed that they are hard to clean. I spray them with a Dawn and vinegar mixture and let them soak. That seems to be working. Just extra work for me.

I received this as a wedding gift. I was so excited tofinally have a complete matching set. I wanted the cuisinart brand because my mom has a great set. Unfortunately, this one does not seem to be the same quality, although I think it was more expensive. I read through the instructions carefully and took note of the special instructions (avoid using metal utensils, if food gets stuck warm up the pain with a dish washing liquid). After two uses, the pans have scratches in the metal and they dry with strange spots that make it look dirty (even when I use a cloth). Not to mention everything sticks to the bottom and warming up the pan with a water and dish washing liquid, did not seem to help at all. My husband is so annoyed by it, we have reverted to using the ancient set we used to use. It's not super expensive, but I would opt for another brand if I had to do it again.

I was a little skeptical that I might wish I had purchased a non stick set as I have always used before, but I am totally pleased with my purchase. I was really getting tired of need to buy new cookware because of the non stick finish wearing off. It is a beautiful set and I am very happy. In fact, I would love to add a couple of pieces to my set.

I bought this for Christmas and have not used it a lot as yet. Seems like good quality cookware with heavy thick bottoms for good distribution of heat. I think that if you remember to not apply high heat to it the bottoms will not warp. Nice looking stuff and seems to work well.

I bought this set 3-4 months ago after considerable research and reviewing ratings and rankings on high quality but economical cookware. This set stood out among them all. It conducts heat extremely well and without having to use high heat settings. The food develops a pleasing color and taste every time. The set also cleans up well. After several months of use the cookware looks like the day I bought it. I recommend this set to anyone seeking high quality cookware at an economical cost.

I purchase the MCP 12 piece cookware set. LOVE IT! My wife was against stainless as well as a married daughter that has some. For ease of cleaning reasons. I had read hundreds of reviews and blogs and bought anyway. Bacon cooks without sticking. Eggs slide around the pan. Awesome. You have to learn to cook with stainless. First... heat the frying pan till a drop of water dances on the surface. Take a paper towel remove drop of water. Place oil or butter in pan. This forms a slick ,non stick surface. ALWAYS heat the pan before appying oil. Cover the whole bottom surface. Apply food to be cooked. You also need to know that the multi clad pans have an aluminum core, which heats evenly, so you don't turn your heat on high. After cooking you immediately take your warm pan and fill with HOT water and dish soap. Eat and come back and wash out. Everything will slide off and ,voila, clean pan. Use non metal utensils and should something stain the finish, put a little Beekeepers Friend cleanser on a paper towel and clean it off. Easy! Don't use brillo pads or other harsh scrubbers as they will scratch the surface and you will lose that slick surface. Remember this is an investment in your cooking skills and these pots and pans are the tools which you will use to impress your family and friends. When you taste your first scrambled egg, you will be hooked.

I was very pleased with my Cookware and have used it most days since I received it. Very good quality, specific care instructions, even distribution of heat. Frying did stick for me but cleanup was easy with Dawn power wash. Would recommend to a friend.

Beautiful set! This particular set was recommended by a family member who’s had it for 10 years and they still look fabulous! I also received a recommendation from a friend who’s had a set for 7 years and they still look amazing! Cook evenly, distribute heat really well. Customer service is exceptional.

I love my new stainless steel cookware set! I have been wanting to replace my nonstick set for some time but was a bit nervous about how to properly care for stainless steel. That said, it's actually been much easier than I thought. I use Bar Keeper's Friend for stains, and for caked on food I just put a little water in the pan and let it simmer for a few minutes. Due to the hard water in my area, small but stubborn white deposits sometimes appear on the pots and pans too, but boiling some water and vinegar easily gets rid of them. I'm mostly successful at heating up the pans so food doesn't stick but I haven't quite perfected this craft yet. I like that the pots and pans are sturdy, conduct heat well, and are a healthier option than nonstick. They also look stylish and make me feel like a pro chef when I use them. I intend to keep this set for as long as I can!
