Cuisinart Chef’s Classic 17-Piece Stainless Steel Cookware Set

After years of "Non - Stick" pots and pans and their claims of non toxicity and durability I decided to go back to good old fashioned stainless steel. These pots and pans are very good quality. They distribute heat well and clean up nicely. You don't have to worry about scratching a non stick surface either. I got this set on sale and am very pleased with the quality and value.

My husband and I decided on this set of cookware to start married life with. I couldn't be more pleased! I haven't had the chance to use all the pieces yet, but the several I have, have been fantastic. If we need to expand our selection of cookware in the future, Cuisinart will definitely make the top of the list. Definitely recommend!

I love my stainless steel cooking set love it love it it's a healthier way to cook and I love the look of these lightweight but sturdy I have gotten a lot of compliments on it

Complete set of stainless steel cookware for every need. Well made, nice handles that you can grip firmly and not just a knob. I had to buy new cookware for an electric ceramic cooktop after having a gas cooktop for many years. After much research, I ordered this set and am extremely pleased. I love that they are dishwasher safe, though a few pans have just a bit of discoloration on the inside bottom after washing. It does not affect cooking, so it's a minor thing. I would purchase these again and highly recommend.

Very high quality set. I absolutely love it. It's my first stainless steel set and there is a learning curve for the nonstick frying pans, but if you watch some videos and read about cooking with them you can do it easily. The handles on the pans themselves have stayed cool for me, but I did have one lid that got too hot to touch. I definitely recommend buying Barkeeper's Friend cleaner to have on hand to clean the pans with if you have tough stains, or if it gets discolored. The discoloration is not damaging to the pan and the cleaner takes it away. Otherwise I just use Dawn soap.

It is good so far, nothing sticks, handles don't get hot, now the tops can according to heat you cooking on but you don't need to cook on high with these, medium heat works great for cooking with these. Lots of sizes for all things to cook, Love the big skillets hard to find them that size in a set.

This cookware is exceptional. It is well constructed and provides even heating. It has just the right weight but I can easily lift it with my arthritis. I love it. I encourage you to try this cookware.

These are good for cooking, however, please note the lids do not have air vents so you cannot place them flat on glass stove tops without tilting them (I leave a mixing spoon underneath the edge of the lid to provide venting), as the heat could break the glass.

within the first 6mths of owning.. The exterior coating has bled off the pots and fry pans that I use most and one of the frying pans, cooking onions... alone, no oils... now that one pan everything sticks to the pan. FYI: I hand wash (Dawn Dish detergent) OR use dishwasher w/cascade.

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
