This is the 2nd set of Cuisinart Cookware I have purchased and I love the way it looks I always have success with my recipes the clean up is always easy...
I love them! They are beautiful! I have to admit food sticks but I soak the pan for a few minutes and they come clean. A little vinegar in the dishwasher prevents any type of water spots. Only issue is kids, the kid handle gets very hot so you have to use a potholder to remove lids. Overall so much better than most.
Bought this to replace an older set ( different brand ) .Set has the pieces that I use on a regular basis to fix meals for my wife and myself. Very satisfied.
I received the cookware for Christmas. I really love that the pans sit flat on my smoothie range. This makes them cook food evenly. The only problem I have is whatever you cook leaves an impression on the bottom of the pan.
I was hoping this was a heavier set of cookware. Handles get hot and you have to use potholders when cooking. Food sticks but does clean up with some scrubbing.
I've had a great time with this set. It's my first stainless set, so it took a bit of getting used to in order to feel comfortable with cooking temperatures and not having everything stick. It's advised not to use nonstick cooking spray, but it's the only way I can reliably do a fried egg every time. The pans are not getting discolored or having any build-up because of this.
Overall, the set is beautiful to look at. So shiny! The interiors will scratch, of course, even with a bamboo utensil set. No big deal. My dishwasher cleans them perfectly every time, even with baked on crud.
To be completely honest, this set MAY do some things better than my previous nonstick set can, but so far all I've really noticed is a SLIGHTLY crispier texture on some foods. In the future, I will get a nonstick set because the cleaning and cooking process in these is just a nuisance for a low-level home cook like myself. Again, this set is amazing, it's just not a great match for a generic cook like me.
