This cookware is exceptional. It is well constructed and provides even heating. It has just the right weight but I can easily lift it with my arthritis. I love it. I encourage you to try this cookware.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I won the 17 pc set for nurses week and my mid size stock pot and the large stock out finish are pbeginning to bubble! It's only 2 1/2 years old!
I really love the set but am disappointed - I have never put them in the dishwasher

Horrible product DO NOT Buy

Horrible purchase, These have only been hand washed, dried and only used on glass cooktop for 3 months there is no reason why they should be falling apart like this.

Don’t purchase!

Unhappy and super disappointed with this purchase. Coating is pealing on almost all of the pieces and I don’t feel safe cooking with them as I’m not sure what is flaking into my food. I have only ever hand washed these. I wish I had gone with stainless steel instead. Cuisinart, any way you can help me?

Very high quality set. I absolutely love it. It’s my first stainless steel set and there is a learning curve for the nonstick frying pans, but if you watch some videos and read about cooking with them you can do it easily. The handles on the pans themselves have stayed cool for me, but I did have one lid that got too hot to touch. I definitely recommend buying Barkeeper’s Friend cleaner to have on hand to clean the pans with if you have tough stains, or if it gets discolored. The discoloration is not damaging to the pan and the cleaner takes it away. Otherwise I just use Dawn soap.

They seem to work really well, but tend to have spots that stick.

Wonderful Set at a Wonderful Price
on October 11, 2025
Posted by: Chuck2112
Excellent! Very happy with this set. The "everything sticks" reviews are most likely from customers who don't know how to use stainless steel cookware. Stainless is not for everyone. The cookware is well made and looks fantastic, even after use. Cleaning can be a bit of a chore, but, again, stainless is not for everyone. Steak, chops, veggies, soups, stews, chili and eggs all come out great. I highly recommend this set to folks who are a bit more "into" cooking and not your average Joe or Jane who is looking for non-stick pots and pans right out of the box.
I would recommend this to a friend!
