The pots and pans works great if you know how to cook without it being non stick and it has nice weight. However when I opened mine there was already some dents on the metal. I assume it was just from welding. The box says to wash before use and dishwasher safe, so right out of the box I loaded it into my dishwasher and when it came out they all had an iridescent sheen to it. Also when packed away it has what looks like rust. This was after it was cleaned and dried, put away for 2 days before I used it to cook. I scrubbed it off but now I only hand wash them and leave it to air dry for a full day before putting them away. Since I cook every day they do not get put away. Nice set but a bit of a nuisance to care for.
I am very pleased with these pans so far. Some things that I cook does leave a stain in the bottom of the pain, like just browning sausage leaves a stain. But with Bar Keepers Friend and an SOS Pad, it comes right out.
Beautiful cookware. Cleans easily as long as you don’t cook on high heat. If food/grease do stick, Barkeepers Friend easily removes the cooked on grease. Should last forever.
The pans are well made and good quality. I use an induction stove top and it does not work as well with these pans. It is very difficult to boil water within the guidance specified for heat setting in the manual, I have to exceed that to get bubbles. Also the pans are terrible for cooking eggs, they stick every time no matter what I do for oil and heat.
