Love this set! I cook a lot and cater as well and these hold up and never disappoint. Yes the handles get hot but safety first right? Use a pot holder. no complaints here. Great for the price!

These are the best set of pans I ever owned I have had a lot of sets in my lifetime I highly recommend you make the investment you will not be sorry ..I just bought a set for my great nephew for a housewarming gift

I purchased this set in the store. When I got home and started unboxing them I found that one of the lids was shattered. I boxed it up and returned it and bought another set. The second set had no damage. We cooked with the frying pans and they were nice. I used one of the pots with a lid today and after washing it found that there was water trapped between the metal and the glass in the lid and it won't come out. I can only imagine how nasty that could become over time. I still have the box so hopefully I will be able to get everything back in the box and return it. It is disappointing because the pans seemed nice and there was a large variety of sizes.

We bought this to replace a Tramotina set that we had for about 10 years. That set was holding up nicely but we wanted new and shiny. Big mistake on our part. The first thing I noticed was that if you use a lid you had better use a pot holder when taking it off of a pot. The lid handles get very hot. Then the large shallow skillet got scratches in the Teflon, despite using only plastic utensils with it. And now everything sticks to it. No matter if you oil it. Spend the extra money and get something decent.

I enjoy this set! I am so excited to have a set that stains and can go from stove top to oven! One thing I learned from having non stick sets is that they should be hand washed rather than dishwasher. They just last better that way. I’m not sure but I think the dishwasher tabs used may be too abrasive. I would guess that if I had those high end sets, they might be more durable and could sustain the dishwasher better. Everything that can go in the dishwasher shouldn’t. I would totally recommend this set and hope that it lasts for a good length of time.

Nice heavy pans.

This is the 2nd set of these members mark pans I've purchased. I'm replacing the first set now after five years and only because my MIL took a scouring pad to the non stick, ruining it. Some new improvements from the old set include: Improved weight balance in the frying pans so they don't tip over as easily Holes in pot pan lids for draining liquids Adding a third largest frying pan I loved my old pans but these feel even more luxurious for the same low cost!

I bought my original set in 2006, 14 years later I still have every piece and in great condition! I hand wash and use wood, nylon, or silicone utensils. I just bought my daughter a set for Christmas as she loves mine. She was very excited and has raved over cooking with it. For the price and quality you can’t beat this set. Treat it well and it will last you!

Really good so far

I bought the set not knowing that TEFLON is used in the nonstick hard anodized aluminum. I would like for someone to tell me is this safe?? everywhere I read online states that "C8" is still allowed in the USA, and that you should cook with ceramic or all clad. Is this set safe to cook/bake with? Thank you
