While these pots and pans clean up very nicely and are scratch resistant, they are most uncomfortable pots and pans to hold onto. The handles are absolutely horrible. They are flat pieces of steel, and I can't say the edges are even really rounded. Not a great feeling in your hand. Had I known, I would not have bought them. Unfortunately, due to an injury my other half was cooking and cleaning up the first 5 weeks we had them and by the time I was back to cooking the box had been discarded along with the delivery paperwork. Potholders are my friend, using one when just putting the pots and pans away after washing. Yes, the handles are THAT uncomfortable.
