Stainless Steel wins hands down, for cooking, cleaning, storing. Stainless.

I would suggest Cooks Essentials from QVC. They’re great, Ive had my set for 6-7 years and they’re still as good as new and actually reasonably priced when compared to the more expensive brands.

I like this set so far. One thing I noticed was that the non-stick coating overlapped the top of some of the pans and tended to flake off. I rubbed the edges real well with a rubber glove to eliminate the loose stuff, but it makes me wonder how well the coating is going to hold up, and how much of the coating I have eaten. Nice set and not too light weight, for 100 bucks. I like the 3 sauce pans that are included, especially the handy smallest one. The handles for the pots and lids have no coating, and get hot, but I’ve gotten used to that. The glass lids are nice, as I can see the meal I am destroying very clearly.

Very durable and good nonstick surface on the pots and pans. I wouldn’t recommend getting this if you have a gas top stove or anything that is flat. It tends to slip off the cooking surface easily. The bottom of the pots and pans are very smooth. I should have opted for the silicon based handles. The metal handles sometimes gets too hot to touch, especially the lids. I love the red color.

I love this set! It looks great, feels great to use. Very professional “feeling”, easy to clean. I was even more thrilled at the Amazon price for KichenAid!!! I was told KitchenAid is the best, I’d have these pots and pans for the rest of my life…. well….

I wasn’t crazy about how easily the edges/rims of the pans “dented” or “dinged”. You know how you tap the spoon or spatula (or whatever) on the side of the pan after you’ve stirred your culinary creation? Well, doing that chipped it! I went back and looked at the other pans/skillets, there were little dents along the rim from doing this. Often exposing the aluminum underneath. What the heck?

We’ve changed our spatula/spoon tapping (we just stopped doing it). But I was VERY disapointed that we’d have to do this after being told KitchenAid made great quality products.

I saw this set go down in price for $99 on Amazon and had to get it. Amazingly it came to my doorstep the next day with the free super saver shipping, and tax free I might add. I searched for 2 months on a good set, this 12 piece set has the best all around collection of pots and pans. The red enamel looks awesome in the kitchen, the ceramic non stick cooking surface is outstanding. No oil or spray is needed, my omelette’s were perfect. They distribute the heat excellently so you don’t need high temps for cooking. The stainless steel handles are designed to dissipate the heat, so they stay nice and cool for cooking. I love the tempered glass lids, not only do they look great, I dropped a big lid on the floor, and nothing happened. No marks on the glass or stainless still rims. You can also see your food cooking while the lids are on. We are so excited to have functional, amazing looking cookware and look forward to using the set for years to come. Kitchenaid continues to make awesome products!

This set looks beautiful in the kitchen with the vibrant red and have been so amazing after years of buying crappy cheap nonstick pots and pans that don’t last. The handles do not get hot so moving them around the kitchen or stove is a breeze and they heat so evenly that food gets done quicker instead of having to constantly move food around the pan. The best part is the ease of clean up afterward because they practically wipe themselves and there is no need to soak even after food has dried on.

I would recommend these to anyone as it was my first KitchenAid purchase and I am now captive to their higher quality. It is worth the money and more than what I could have imagined.

I have been eye balling these for quite a while. I read some of the reviews & decided to try them, actually my wife got them for me at Christmas, because she knew I wanted them, and she likes my cooking. I have been nothing but thrilled with them. My only regret is that I did not try them sooner.
