These pans are not only beautiful, but are excellent quality. They cook evenly and clean up beautifully. I love the measuring lines inside the pans and especially love the pasta strainer. The pot handles stay touchable when the put is hot, but the lid handles get hot. Overall, this set was an excellent value for the quality!

Quality cookware, couldn't be more pleased with the look and construction of this set. I'm sure they'll look even better when they have a patina develop. It was a little scary starting to cook on pans not covered in Teflon (it's been a while), but so far it's worked fine. The Teflon was the whole point of buying this kind of set, no matter how much we've spent on good quality non-stick pans eventually the Teflon breaks down. I'm in my fifties and I think this is the last cookware set I'll have to buy

This cookware is simply beautiful, and the value to market is crazy. Before getting this set I shopped many Copper Cookware sets, and for real copper in this piece count from a great brand like Viking you will literally pay over $600 easy. This set cooks wonderfully, and there is just a very small learning curve coming from non-stick cookware to a Stainless interior cooking surface. Just add a little bit of oil to the pan and you should be good to go. Also, when reading the care and use booklet, I noticed that they recommend really only cooking on medium heat to slightly over medium heat for best results and so far I agree. I grabbed some Bar Keepers Friend to use to keep this cookware polished and shinny.

Yes it tarnishes, it’s copper, that’s what copper does. I simply love the heat distribution that copper offers as no other metal I’ve cooked with compares. If you’re looking for a set that is durable and gets the job done this is it. I’d you want a set that’s going to stay looking like a new penny without some work, then you need to look elsewhere.

I was so tired of buying non-stick cookware and having them wear out within a year or two. There are 8 in our household and we do a lot of cooking. This set of cookware will last a lifetime. I like how well it distributed heat and cooks on lower setting than other pans. No problems with food sticking when cooked at lower heat. Like that this cookware can go in the oven as well as stove. We have a smooth top range and they have worked wonderfully.

This set caught my eye in a sale flyer and after reading reviews and doing some research I decided I couldn’t pass this set up. My almost 10 year old set of non-stick pans had been in need of replacement for quite awhile but I hadn’t found a set that I liked that fit our budget until this set. I was a bit afraid to try stainless, having never cooked with anything other than non-stick and cast iron before but these turned out to be very easy to cook with and clean up easily as well. They have a nice weight and seem to distribute heat evenly. Barkeeper’s Friend cleans the copper right up and I now have them hanging from a pot rack since they are too pretty to hide in a cabinet.

Two must-knows for copper cookware. First, it WILL discolor when used, or even if you just hang it up for looks. Like silver, copper discolors, and polishing restores the bright shine. Secondly, copper is an amazing conductor of heat. You don't need the high heat you used with your steel pans. Turn it down. If I usually saute a dish on medium high, I'm getting the same heat now on medium low! Less fuel used, more energy efficient. Third thing, I guess, is no nonstick coating. I like avoiding the questionable chemicals in nonstick. Sticking isn't an issue if you gently preheat and add your choice of fat. If you're a dedicated low or no fat cook, rethink the purchase. All that said, I love these pans. Superb quality! Equal to All-Clad's copper and stainless, and I've been an All-Clad user for decades. I cook a LOT. Two to three meals every day. I don't have time to fuss with stuff. I need it to work right, clean easily, and be trouble-free. I'm glad I got these. I'd buy them again in a heartbeat. Very impressed.

So far I love this set. Easy to care for and they cook evenly. To remove any discoloration on the inside I use barkeepers friend and I always wash by hand and throughly dry. Very beautiful pots and pans that require a bit more tlc than other sets but totally worth it,

Very attractive cookware set and very even cooking. Be careful to go easy on the heat though as they suggest in the manual. The stainless insides can be tough to clean as is normal. The outside is prone to overheating and may change color, but using the Penny Brite copper cleaner sample provided works great to solve any exterior issues. Unfortunately you can't find Penny Brite any more - which was biodegradable too!

I received these as a gift, and I wish my husband had done more research on their maintenance before purchasing. The very first time I used a pan to make some quick quesadillas for my kids, the whole copper surface of the pan turned a blotchy pinkish-red color. I called the manufacturer and they said that discoloration with use is pretty normal and I could use some vinegar and water to bring back the original color. I don't want to have to polish my pots/pans after every use. I cook three meals a day for five kids, someone in my position does not have time for such delicate cookware, no matter how well they conduct heat.
