The pans cook very well, but my one complaint is that they turn brown/bronze after one use. So dont purchase expecting them to stay silver and pristine after use. They heat evenly and cook the food quickly, theyre also very durable as I have them stacked on top of each other in my cabinets and have not noticed any denting or scratching.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I got this set to replace a set I got a couple years ago. I have had this set for a couple weeks now. It is a beautiful set for a great price. I love stainless steel . Yes, it can stain if not heated enough before cooking but some bartenders keeper will get it off.
Remember it is stain-less steel not stain free steel. It does have some spots that can't be cleaned off but it doesn't bother me. I like the handles they are easy to hold and pour. It doesn't hurt my hand.
There is a lip on the pots and pans to prevent any liquids from dripping down the sides of the pan. I love this set so far. I totally recommend.

We wanted to switch from non-stick pans to stainless and this set seemed to hit the mark. So far we love how well the pans hold up to cooking and cleaning. I recommend this set.

I like the measuring lines etched on the inside of the pots which eliminates looking for a measuring cup, the see thru glass lids, and the quality shine of stainless steel.

I bought the this and the 11 piece sets and some larger pots. I am happier than a kid at a birthday party. Follow the cooking instructions you will have no problem. I have an induction stove heating was hard at first. Once I figured the stove temperatures. It has been easy sailing. I absolutely love they're products. Looking forward to purchasing the entire Cuisinart kitchen! Everything. One or two pieces every month. I can't wait to get the steamer.

within the first 6mths of owning.. The exterior coating has bled off the pots and fry pans that I use most and one of the frying pans, cooking onions... alone, no oils... now that one pan everything sticks to the pan. FYI: I hand wash (Dawn Dish detergent) OR use dishwasher w/cascade.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Complete set of stainless steel cookware for every need. Well made, nice handles that you can grip firmly and not just a knob. I had to buy new cookware for an electric ceramic cooktop after having a gas cooktop for many years. After much research, I ordered this set and am extremely pleased. I love that they are dishwasher safe, though a few pans have just a bit of discoloration on the inside bottom after washing. It does not affect cooking, so it's a minor thing. I would purchase these again and highly recommend.

I absolutely love them my husband got them for me for Christmas and doesn’t even get the chance to use them because I won’t even let him in the kitchen while I’m cooking
