Love these pans

Purchased this set on sale in club for $150 and is definitely worth it. Read the instructions before using and you will have no problem. The pots and pans have a good weight to them so be prepared for that. They specifically recommend warming the pans prior to first use and spreading oil to prevent things from sticking. This is recommended every couple of months. Also, again right in the instructions they recommend to use Bar Keeper’s Friend to maintain the shine. Trust me you will need this.

excellent

So disappointed I used my small frying pan just to cook eggs for breakfast and it looks ugly from the first use. I used my large frying pan with same results. I hand washed mine and didn’t put them in the dishwasher but after just a couple of uses they look horrible and everything sticks regardless of what temp they are cooked at. I won’t be buying anymore Viking anything. I have cooked with stainless steel for many years and these are the worst.

My boyfriend bought them for me for an early Christmas present. I have the copper pans. Wash them with hot soapy water, use copper cleaner on the ourside and bottom and rinse clean. Cook on medium and low heat all the time. NOTHING swticks if you follow the instructions that is given with the pans.

I’ve waited 4 months after first using the pans to write this review. Great pans. I made sure to research how to properly cook on them (warm them up before, use a dash of olive oil/butter, don’t need to cook things as hot as you usually do). I have burned a thing or two. When I do I just boil cream of tartar in the pan and then scrub it. It makes the pans shine like new too. Everything that I have cooked in these pans turns out fantastic. Especially pastas with sauces. I used the larger pot to make potato soup and it worked perfectly. Only negative is that the larger frying pan doesn’t have a top. I see people complain that they aren’t as shiny after you use them. I’d like to remind people that these are tools of the kitchen and don’t have to have a glossy shine every time. Just make sure to clean the bottoms of them every time, especially on a ceramic cool top like mine. These pans are fantastic and professional kitchen use stainless steel so you should too!

I was in need of new pots and pans, and was tired of the non-stick pans I had flaking and getting ruined, so I decided to try this set. They are gorgeous to look at and a breeze to cook with! If anything sticks, it comes right off with a bit of scrubbing (although eggs take some getting used to) , and they have gone through the dishwasher with no issues as well. I was worried that there wouldn't be enough different sizes, but all the sizes I use are there, so it works perfectly for our family of 3. All in all, super happy we bought them! Well worth the extra money over the cost of non-stick ones I have purchased in the past.

Had this for about 2 years. Every single piece has warped. The pans were done after 2 months. And I did not over heat them. The pots followed

Wish I could say they are great but food - especially bacon & eggs tend to stick easily & they are all spotted for some reason?

Planning to return! I am used to non-stick cookware -was looking ideally for the Cooks Essentials brand which apparently is no longer sold
