Decent product

I purchased this set in December 2019, and waited until now to review. First off they stack nicely into one tall stack, or two shorter ones. We use the big cooking pot the most for hot dishes, soups, etc. The insides show little wear after one year. The outside bottom of the big pot is starting to turn green possibly from natural gas flames. They are heavy, and when filled with food or water are heavier yet. The short handles do get hot . The long handles are hot close to the kettle, but can be picked up at the end without a holder but they are warm. Due to the stacking feature, there are two sets of rivets per kettle. Sometimes food can be caught around the rivets, so a soft brush is nice to clean around them. There are two sizes of lids, so every pan, including fry pans, can be covered with a lid. The 3.5 quart pan has an extra "handle" as part of stacking feature which is helpful to use when full of hot food. I hand wash all my cookware. As I like to keep my cookware nice and clean looking, the large fry pan's handle is turning brown near the pot due to use. It is hard to clean due to its construction. To me the only downside to this set is the smallest saucepan is 2.5 quarts, so I miss the 1 quart size I had in previous non-Caphalon sets.

Our last set was 18 years old. We probably spent $600 in new Caphalon pans this past year. Should last us to retirenment.

I bought this set as a wedding present for my son and new wife. The nonstick cookware they collected over the years from local discount stores did not hold up. Besides those pans being substandard, they could not get away from using metal utensils so you can imagine what happened. I've been using Calphalon stainless for years and recently bought a couple of nonstick fry pans. Realized this was the answer to their problem. They threw all their old pans away. They love this set!

If you are looking for an excellent set look no further. This is an amazing set. The quality is top notch and heavy duty. I love the stacking feature. It saves space.. The nonstick surface is amazing. Nothing sticks to the pan. I love how my foods cooke evenly. They are very easy to clean. I recommend them 100%. This is a great buy and you definitely get your money's worth.

Amazing cookware!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very satisfied with this product. Aside from being a quality brand, my hat goes off to the genius that thought of them being spacer savers. The space it saves me is incredible especially since my older pots take so much space. The space saving feature truly is one of my favorite parts of owning these. In addition, the quality of the pots is phenomenal and that was my expectation. They are very easy to clean and that makes this lady very happy. My only concern initially was the glass lids breaking/cracking but after much use these last months, I’m confident in their durability. I’m super excited to continue using them for all my home cooked meals. I highly recommend this set to anyone with limited storage space looking for a durable set. In my case, I have tons of storage but I love the clean look in my cabinet when I open it up. Another feature I love is that it’s non-stick- I use metal utensils and have no scratch issues. Compared to my other cookware this set is top of the line. Thanks again for a product the consumer can trust, enjoy and use for years to come !

4 stars because the lids could fit together closer on some of my pots. The notches are to shallow on some of them and because of that they’re unstable in stacks. A little heavy but well made. I love cooking with them. They heat up much better than all my other pans. More even heating throughout the entire surface.

Great set of pans and saves space!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set of pans appears to be excellent quality. They are durable and tough and stack together nicely to take up very little space in my cabinet. One of my favorite aspects is that the pans are of such thick quality that they won’t warp or bend over time after much use. They sit heavy and flat on the stove and don’t move around as I stir things. I have used other nonstick pans that end up with uneven bottoms over time, so they don't heat or cook evenly. These pans are so thick and well made that I don't believe that will ever be an issue! The nonstick aspect has also been wonderful. I have not had any issues with food sticking to the bottom. The even heat distribution means that all my food cooks evenly. They have also cleaned up nicely in the dishwasher with no ill effects. I like the clear lids as well so I can keep an eye on the food as it cooks without lifting the lid off. They are nice looking lids as well. The handles also stay cool to the touch and are quite heavy duty. Overall, I have been extremely pleased with this set of pots and pans!
