[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pans are heavy! The handles didn’t get hot with stovetop use either which I enjoyed. The heat distribution was even and it was nice. It’s stainless steel so cleaning may be a challenge because it is not non stick, but I like these for searing or browning meats

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a gorgeous set to work and cook with. I am so excited to use it. So far it has been very easy to clean and store. The detail in the pots and pans is amazing. The pans are very heavy and feel very quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this set of stainless steel pans! I've been trying to move away from nonstick so I jumped on the chance to try these. They look so sleek and modern. They have a good weight and heats up evenly without being too heavy to maneuver. It does take a bit to get used to since it cooks differently than nonstick pans, but once you do, it's super easy. Also love the 2 sizes it comes with.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pans are very sleek and aesthetically pleasing. Reading some of the comments I noticed that many were reporting that the food was sticking to the pan. Like any other stainless steel pans, these need to be seasoned prior to their first use to prevent sticking. Simply put the pans in low heat drizzle some oil and wipe any excess off. Repeat 3-4 times. Also, make sure that the protein you’re trying to cook is not super cold. Let it rest for about 10 minutes outside of the fridge before cooking it. Overall this is a great first set to have, It has every piece that you would possibly need for a basic set of pans.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the stainless steel look of these pans. They look classic and like they will last forever. I am still getting used to how to cook in them. I have been having some trouble with food sticking to the bottom even with using an oil. I think there is a learning curve and once I figure out the heat level needed and the distribution it will be great! These pans are definitely hefty and will be a great addition to our kitchen!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone who cooks a lot I am super impressed with this stockpot by Kitchen Aid! This one holds 8 quarts so perfect for soups in the winter, chili or really any other meal you could make that you need plenty of space! This is a pot I know I will have for years and years and it is made of the best quality (stainless steel). The glass lid fits perfectly and this pot has easily become one of my most used in my kitchen. I highly recommend this stockpot by Kitchen Aid!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far I really like these! Very good heat distribution, considering I have an older gas stove. They seem durable but are not overly heavy. A simple, sleek design that does the job without unnecessary frills. Easy to clean and store. I just wish they had lids.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love this pot and how it cooks. I love stainless steel as well. Cleaning the pot is pretty easy and it is big enough for me to cook soups and spaghetti in. It is quite heavy, not too heavy but has a great high quality feel and weight to it. It is my new favorite...with its glass lid.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love my new Stockpot. I love that it has measurements inside. The first thing I made was a pot of crabs. I can’t wait to make some of my recipes with this great pot. I will definitely recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Durability The pans feature a 3-ply base construction with stainless steel on the outside and an aluminum core for added strength and resistance to warping. This design ensures that the pans maintain their shape over time, even with frequent use. Users consistently praise the solid build quality, noting that it feels robust and long-lasting. However, care should be taken to avoid exposing the pans to rapid temperature changes, which could compromise their integrity. Heat Distribution One of the standout features of these pans is their ability to distribute heat evenly across the cooking surface. The aluminum core plays a key role in ensuring there are no hot spots, making it easier to achieve consistent cooking results. This feature is particularly beneficial for frying, sautéing, and searing, where precise temperature control is crucial. Cleaning These pans are dishwasher safe, which simplifies cleaning significantly. For those who prefer handwashing, the smooth stainless steel surface is easy to clean with warm water, mild soap, and a non-abrasive sponge. Food residue releases fairly easily, although using the correct heat and oil combination during cooking can help prevent sticking. Versatility The set includes two pans (8-inch and 9.5-inch), which are suitable for various cooking tasks, from frying eggs to searing meats. They are oven-safe up to 500°F, allowing seamless transitions from stovetop to oven for recipes requiring finishing or broiling. Additionally, their compatibility with induction, gas, electric, and ceramic cooktops adds to their versatility in any kitchen setup. Design The brushed stainless steel finish gives these pans a sleek, modern appearance that complements any kitchen aesthetic. The ergonomic handles are heat-resistant and comfortable to grip, enhancing safety and ease of use. However, the lack of included lids may be a drawback for those who frequently cook dishes requiring covered cooking.
