Read the fine print. They say dishwasher safe. But further down they say hand wash for longer lifespan of the pans. They also can't be used on burners above medium heat. But they're supposed to be oven safe? If only medium heat then to what degree are they safe in the oven? It doesn't say. So, they're beautiful, quasi functional, and come with a lot of asterisks even though they make claims of perfection. We've had ours about a week and they work. But cooking times are slower because of the medium heat thing. I'm back to hand washing pots and pans when everything else we own can go in the dishwasher. And I'm still leary of making a frittata because I don't know what oven temp is safe for a medium heat pan... So, yeah, fun. We'll see how they hold up in the long term.

I am overall concerned with the poor quality of many of SAM'S products over this last year , shipping companies just dropping the package and running.... mine was at wrong ADDRESS, contacted both SAM'S and the delivery company.......WITHOUT any reply !!

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.

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.

I’d been watching forever for these to be back in stock. I really wanted the cream/gold set, but none of the colors had been available. One morning I saw the red was back in stock, so I ordered those. Later that afternoon I was showing them to my daughter, and the cream was back!! I quickly ordered a set of the cream. My daughter is now the proud owner of the red set (her favorite color). The cream set is just gorgeous. I seasoned as directed, and hand wash them only. I haven’t had any issues with chipping or any food sticking. I just wish there was a matching large stock pot available. I need something larger for soups and pasta sauce. I also bought the cream colored Member’s Mark casserole dish set to compliment my new pots & pans.

I wanted so badly to love these pots. I waited months for them to come in stock at my local store and bought the blue and gold as soon as I found them. Brought them home, promptly gave away my old set and started my first dish with the new. Holy smokes!! My old set had heat safe handles. I didn’t even think as I grabbed the handle on this set and promptly burned my entire palm and thumb! Be ware! There is no heat safe design or material on the handles. While the pots are beautiful this is a huge issues in my world. Took them back to sams club today. Now I need to find a set to replace my old ones I gave away.

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 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.

Best cookware I've ever owned..nothing sticks and really no dishwasher needed ,so easy to clean! I wanted to test the non stick so let a pan set overnight after cooking Oatmeal and after adding some hot water and soaking for less than a minute the pan came clean by wiping with a paper towel,amazing ! Be sure to season your new cookware before first use as per the included instructions and sticking will never be an issue.

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.
