I waited a long time to invest in a new set of pots & pans, and after reading the reviews, I was so excited to get these and begin using them. We only use wooden and plastic utensils, and after only one use, the non-stick surface of these pans was scratched. I am incredibly disappointed in the lack of quality. I would have expected more from this brand. The picture I attached was after one use with my new pans, using a plastic utensil.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Don’t believe the negative reviews that say everything sticks. If you season the pan as directed, cook on lower heat (the pans are designed for this), let your meat warm up a bit out of the fridge and follow the cleaning instructions (hot water and soak) you will love this cookware and it’s ease of cleanup. They’re also beautiful hanging in my kitchen.

We love this set! It required us to kinda learn how to cook all over again, it only took a few days but well worth then re-teaching. Main problem we had was TOO MUCH HEAT!! low-to medium heat is all that is needed, unless boiling water of course. Once we learned to control our temp everything was non-stick. Now we never have to worry about teflon and other toxic stuff in our food and we have to break the bank to do so like ALL of the other stainless steel sets out there!! Thank You Cuisinart. Ya'll are our go to for all the other stuff we are going to replace.

Nice looking set. I like the way it feels. It's light and well made. I soon discovered that I need to learn a few things about cooking with stainless steel, but I'm finding them easier to use as I learn more. I think this set will serve me well for many years. The handles never get too hot to hold even when it's been on heat for over 30 minutes. The handles are attractive and fill comfortable to hold. They are also attached to the cookware in a way that is attractive and durable. For the money, I'm well pleased with this set and will recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a stainless steel cookware set.

This set was given to me as a gift and I am so thrilled with how well the cookware cooks: evenly & quickly. The lid handles don't heat up. I love the measure feature inside the pots making it easy to pour and cook without using extra cups, etc. The clean up is so easy and is truly non stick. I do not use oil/butter of any kind in my cooking and have been pleased with how well everything comes out of the pans. Really have not had a bad cooking experience with this set.

I bought this set after upgrading to an induction stove in my home. While the pans do work just fine! I'm highly disappointed with is the mixed metals. I was expecting stainless steel as advertised not aluminum bonded to stainless. I would not have noticed it if, after one use they had not started pitting inside bottoms and tendency to stain black after being washed. After using a magnet to verify the dissimilar metals, i was disappointed to say the least.

I really thought I was getting some great pot set. Cuisinart is a household name and are highly recommended. But I am very disappointed I with the set. I only used it once and all the pots have started to get rust marks. I only washed them with dishwashing liquid and towel dried. I only had these for close to a month. Terrible
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
