I like the look and feel of this cookware set -- very sleek. I've only used them a few weeks so far and have overall enjoyed my experience. It's my first time using stainless steel so I expect a learning curve. (I've had success with eggs most of the time!) The pots and pans aren't so heavy that I feel uncomfortable using them, but do feel hefty enough that I'm confident they are retaining heat and providing a good cooking experience. My reason for the 4 stars is that if I turn my burners up all the way (which I do when I boil water) there is an awful high-pitched "squealing" noise that occurs where the lid meets the pot/pan, due to rapid vibration. I can't boil water using that highest setting because the noise is awful.
I have used this set for a year now. Coming f et om the culinary world I know cookware. This Tramotina tri clad is as nice or nicer than professional restaurant equipment I have used. Worth every penny,this is outstanding lifetime cookware.7 stars on this set
Very simple: Tamontina is the best cookware except por the tev hevu "le Creuset ware, which by price and purpose is in a different category. But I am old and the weight of the paller si by now a drawback
We purchased these pans a few months ago. After using once, they became discolored. I went back to look at the reviews and decided I wasn’t done with the quite yet and SO GLAD I kept them. After using, I decided to try using Bar Keepers Friend for stainless sinks and items. The pots and pans came clean immediately, with no elbow grease to speak of. They look wonderful and cook wonderfully and we’re so happy now with the purchase.
I bought the 8 pieces back in 2010. The set has held up beautifully Even cooking , easy to clean, Handles great! I first saw these pans on PBS show American Test Kitchen. They were doing a review to pots and pans.
These are amazing! They cook so evenly and are easy to clean. Wish I would’ve made the decision to purchase sooner. We refreshed our cookware with these and other Tramontina items. We love them
