doesn't hold up

I loved this cookware --for a bout a year. Then all the pots started flaking and all the skillets were scratched up even though I only EVER used plastic (Analon's own utensils) or wood. Now 4 years later I have pitched it all as I didn't think it was safe to cook in any longer. I wish I hadn't donated all the hard anodized cookware when replaced it with this. I wanted something lighter weight, but this stuff doesn't hold up over time.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I like the sizes, nonstick, weight, and color. Have had it for a month but hope that it will last for years. I cook full meals at least 4-5 times weekly.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is by far the best cookware that I have. The frying pans and pots are big, but very lightweight. I am most impressed over this. I am so tired of cookware claiming they are lightweight but not. This set definitely do not stick. Cleaning up is a breeze. I use soap and warm water and everything comes off. You can also use the dishwasher.I use the pots to boil water, make soup, and cook noodles. One of the pan is deeper so when you fry things, there is almost no splattering to clean up. You need this set! I have many sets and in different brands, but this one is by far the best in quality and durability. I am no chef but this set have made cooking and cleaning easier.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set of pots and pans has a great variety of sizes, we replaced all our old ones and are so happy. We tend to cook a lot of side dishes and this set has the right size we need for just about anything we make. The non stick is great, we are extra careful when cooking to use silicon or wood utensils and also careful while washing to really keep these in their best shape. Everything feels like great quality, the handle is comfortable to grip and it's nice having a lid for everything. Another reason why I got rid of my old stuff for these is this set can go into the oven, no worrying about melting handles. Built tough to last and they look good.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love that this 10 piece pot and pan set actually had 6 pots or pans in it, compared to other ones which count utensils as pieces. The quality was great, I noticed that they resisted scratches very well and were easy to clean. The color was great and it looks very modern in my kitchen too.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like that this set includes pans and pots of larger sizes. There is a good inclusiveness of sizes and the largest pot goes up to 6 quarts. Most of my other pans are mix and match so having a nesting set that matches is great. We hope eventually weed out some of the existing pieces. The look is slick and nice and the nonstick factor is really good at this stage so we’re very happy with the set for making eggs/omelets to all day sauces simmering in the larger, covered pots.
