I have had this set about 3 months now and I’m very happy. I’ve needed a good cookware set for a while and with varying reviews for so many (expensive and affordable) I decided to go with these. I will say, I have babied this set. I followed the instructions for seasoning and follow the instructions for washing. I have not put any in the discharger and wait for them to cool completely before washing. Previous reviews talk about water getting stuck in the lids and that does appear to happen. I towel dry the lids and then let them set on my drying mat and the water does dry out. The bottoms have stained some but I’ve been careful with heat and not using any non stick sprays and wow, I don’t actually need it like the directions say! These pots cook like they’re on high with olive oil or butter on only medium heat! It’s a great set and I’m just so happy with my purchase.

Enjoying my new cookware. Disappointed that it is not scratchproof like the original Emeril cookware claims. Extra time required to stack and unstack all in small space available at house. I saved the cardboard buffers from packing box and use them to prevent scratches. Most dishes I cook need a lower heat than I normally use with other cookware because this metal conducts and holds heat much better. Example: a scrambled egg pattie for a breakfast biscuit cooks about halfway between medium and low. I can do other tasks without burning concerns. This morning I dumped the egg pattie onto open buttered biscuit, then added a slice of tomato on the egg before folding all into the biscuit. Nothng stuck to the pan, and I wiped it with a paper towel after running warm water over it.

I brought this set on the notion that what was stated to me about the products! Well, on the first day I cooked in the pots, it appeared to be a number one winner until I cooked a couple more times and started seeing scratches all in the inside of the hardware I am also seeing partials in my food. This was falsely advertised by Sam's Club.

We bought these in store and did not see any information on the box regarding unsafe chemicals used in manufacturing. I was surprised to see this warning on your website, "This product contains: Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFASs) (CAS RN: None); CECBP - Priority Chemicals Aluminum (CAS RN: 7429-90-5); ATSDR Neurotoxicants; CA MCLs; CWA 303(d) Chromium, Total (CAS RN: 7440-47-3); CA MCLs Chromium Compounds (CAS RN: 7440-47-3); CA TACs; CDC 4th National Exposure Report; CWA 303(d); OEHHA RELs."

We bought these pans to replace a hodgepodge of pans we had before. It is a nice cohesive set, nonstick, but we cannot STAND these pans because the outer coating rubs off every chance it gets! You CANNOT wipe the outside with anything, if you do, you will find a nasty surprised on the other end. You get nasty black coating on your nice tea towels or paper towels. This is very aggravating, and hence why we are looking to replace this set, which is a shame because they work very well despite the outer coating wiping off.

I loved the pots right out of the box but once I used the lids they have rust and water between the glass and the metal. They also have dark spots around the lid. I need to return but if some of my old lids will fit I may keep. They are good pots and pans they just need to get the lids right

So I’m not that good of a cook to tell if they’re fabulous pans. But they’re decent, seem sturdy enough and non stick everything comes off easily. They do scratch easily from the exterior the bottoms are all scratched up as soon as you set it on the stove. WHAT EVERYONE IS SAYING ABOUT THE LIDS IS TRUE!!! They suck! If you can overlook these details the set is pretty good. You can definitely get a cheaper tfal or the other brand set or something along this lines but the quality of these seem sturdier and better and doesn’t look like it will peel like my tfal set

I am not happy at all with these pots & pans. The water get stuck in between & you can get it out. They are changing colors on the outside of my pans & pots. The top gets really hot I burned myself sometimes when looking at my food. I want my money back.

I purchased this set yesterday. After washing all the pieces I realized one pan had scratches, I called Sam's and they allowed me to come in an exchange the one piece. I used them for the first time tonight and when washing after the pan was all scratched up. I used a plastic spoon made for non-stick cookware and it still scratched. I'm very disappointed because this seemed like a nice quality set before using. I will be packing them all back up and returning.

Nice heavy pans.
