Wow!

This is an incredibly versatile and durable set. I'm amazed at how superlative it is. There are a few nice features, like measuring lines on the sides of some of the utensils, the glass tops, and the ease of use (think, ergonomic design). The ONLY complaint, and it's really not a complaint, but a warning, DO NOT WASH IN DISHWASHER. It will ruin the outside coating. The point of this set is its non-stick properties, meaning, you can wash it easily by hand. Otherwise, it's the best.

The pans weigh more than I expected at first, but no real drawback there.

This set is complete! The steamer works with several size sauce pans. You'll find that the pans are little heavier than other sets, but then remember you have three layers of metal that make up this cookware. Please remember to wash the pans in warm water first to remove any tiny debris. No need to use the scratchy side of a dish sponge to clean up with, the pans almost wash themselves with a bit of detergent and some warm water. I highly recommend the CUISINART set of cooking utensils with this set or at least the use of non-metal utensils to avoid scratching the bottoms of the pans They are tough and scratch resistant, but they can be marred over time. You can actually make pancakes with out oil or spraying the pan first, and they don't even hint at sticking. These pans are so easy to clean with just a soft sponge and some hot water and detergent. They heat to temperature quickly and evenly. One thing though that I found out the hard way is that the handles do tend to get a bit warm on the stove top depending on how long you are cooking an item. Simmered stews will get hotter than heating up a can of soup or vegetables, so have the oven mitts handy. I am only sorry I waited so long to get this set. You will not be disappointed!

All 11 pieces are perfect. You want to read the care instructions- easy ...

Delivered today. All 11 pieces are perfect. You want to read the care instructions- easy care. Not high maintenance like some pans. The color goes great with my kitchen. I made a veggie burger using my 8 inch frying pan. It came out great. No mess. The pan cleaned up very nicely. I am looking forward to using all the other pieces. The set has everything I need. The lids are versatile. Feels and looks like it is made of good quality. Love the handles on pans and lids. I like the measurement marks that are in the inside 3 of the pans. I know this review is early but so far- great!

The best cookware I've ever owned and I am a single male LOL

I have purchased three sets of the 7 piece cookware set after haven't bought a 12-inch skillet I like the fact that they are teflon infused with titanium. One for myself and two as Christmas gifts so far this it's the best cookware set I have ever owned. Even though it says you can use metal utensils on this cookware I would not recommend this on any kind of regular basis I did with the 10-inch skillet and I do regret this due to the fact that the codeine have flaked after 2 years of constant use. The other pieces in this set I have not used metal utensils on and they are still in good condition. I have learned my lesson and I'm going to replace the 10-inch skillet but will not be using metal utensils on it. Even though it says that you can use this sat in the oven at 500 degrees my neighbor recommend that you do not go over 400 degrees also the lid for the stock pot also fits the 10-inch skillet. Other then the 10-inch skillet this set of cookware has lasted longer then any other that I have owned. Other non-stick cookware that I have owned never lasted more than six months to one year. My neighbor and I definitely recommend the Cuisinart cookware.

Heavy, sturdy, and truly non-stick!

I have had these for a few months now, and I still love them. Pros: Heavy and sturdy. The handles seem to be attached well to the pots and pans. I love that it comes with lids for almost every pot, INCLUDING the big frying pan. I love having a lid for my frying pan. The steamer is awesome as well. These pots are truly non-stick and SO easy to clean. Cons: The only cons I would give it is that I wish it came with one really large stock pot. Other than that, it comes with every size I would need.

Efficient, well made, great starter kit

Great value for the money. Set arrived well packaged and it feels very high quality. Heat distribution is better than other pans I've had, including OXO's. I've only had it a month but everything is as good as I've ever had in a non-stick set. I also appreciate that it has a lot of the basics and not 25 pieces with too many duplicates. It's a great small apartment set that you might want to supplement with a stainless steel or cast iron piece. Highly recommended by someone who cooks every day.

Cuisinart 66-11 Chef's Classic Nonstick Hard-Anodized 11-pc Cookware Set is the best - My Favorite

I recievied this pot set quickly. I must say these are the best pots and pans I've ever owned. They cook so evenly and the non-stick is truly non-stick and this makes cooking and cleanup so easy. And I have an electric stove. I just make sure I keep the temp on medium and begin cooking immediately because they heat up evenly, but very fast. They are made of great quality material. Not heavy and not light. But just right. After finishing cooking, which with these and for what I cook - the food is ready pretty quick. Then I let poor pan cool off to room temp before wiping out with a soft dishcloth, then hand wash them. I do not wash them in the dishwasher. I am super pleased with these Cusinart pots and pans with lids set! I highly recommend them.

Great set that at a better price than most.

This is the first time I have ever bought a set for more than just a few dollars and it shows. They look nice. Feel sturdy with solid handles that are riveted, not bolted on. Less oil needed for cooking. Better heat distribution. Pans are tapered which makes cooking easier for me and a heck of a lot easier to clean, no right angles to get food stuck in. Good amount of items that are a useable sized (no useless "one egg pan" or oversized "barley fit a burner pot"). *Lids for every pot and pan, so you are able to fry and boil simultaneously! DO NOT use metal utensils (to include whisks)!

THE BEST NONSTICK COOKWARE FOR THE PRICE

I purchased the 14 piece set at a very good price ($117). This cookware is almost perfect, and at the price I paid, a good value. The stainless steel handles are riveted to the hard anodized aluminum pans, giving them a very professional look and feel. (I am a classically trained French Chef). The best thing about this set is the QuanTanium nonstick coating. It is four layers thick, reinforced by bits of Titanium. That being said, I would like to offer some suggestions, as I have been using parts of this set for years, and therefore have some good experience. First of all, don't run them through your dishwasher as this may cause some discoloration of the hard anodized aluminum surface. Second, don't drop them, as they may become deformed if dropped on a hard surface. Third, even though they are promoted as being able to stand up to metal utensils, I wouldn't use them. Ever. When it comes to any nonstick surface, it is best to "baby" them: Don't use them for high temperature searing (use cast iron instead), hand wash them, and use nylon, bamboo, wood, or silicone utensils. I use a silicone sponge and brush for cleaning while they are still hot.

Look no further! Built to last!

I've purchased many sets over the years and this one might be my last. I've had these almost a year and they still look like new. The nonstick is TRULY nonstick. I use the steamer basket weekly. This set makes cooking easier with the assortment of cookware. I don't necessarily need to wash the pants from yesterday to cook today. There is so much to choose from. I suggest buying it with a lid organizer and a pan organizer. Made a fantastic Christmas gift for me last year from my husband.
