Mainstays Iridescent Stainless Steel 20-Piece Cookware Set, with Kitchen Utensils and Tools

Upon opening this cookware set, it was hard to miss how pretty the iridescent accents were! They pot lid knobs, handles and the 3 pieces of serving utensils all have that beautiful finish. I love the selection of pots, you can cook most meals with what is included. These are all made from heavy weight, stainless steel. The handles and knobs are sturdy and put on very well. I made gravy in the dutch oven. It heated up very quickly, nothing stuck and no stains were left behind after rinsing. I was also able to wash it in the dishwasher with no ill effects. I am just so happy with this set; they are very unique and great quality! I highly recommend!

Beautiful pots and pan set that I do desperately needed. I absolutely love the bright colors, they give the stainless steel a classy yet fun look and I've gotten a lot of compliments on them. So far zero issues with any of them and I'm glad to be rid of my old heavy set. Just what I was looking for to match my kitchen!

Absolutely Beautiful Cooking Set! I am totally thrilled to get to review these beautiful cooking instruments! I actually have the matching knives set and silverware set so it perfectly blends into my kitchen. I just love how great these look. My kids call it rainbow but it's actually called iridescent. It has a really beautiful finish not only on the rainbow color of the handles and cover lid tips but also on the metal that is a shiny and reflective material as well. I was happy to note that while cooking the handles do not become too hot to touch which was one of the concerns I had for a fully metal set. The only one I had any issue with was the smallest cooking pot whose handle did get hot probably because it was closest to the burner. I just used potholders to protect my hands when I picked it up which was simple enough to do. These pots cooked perfectly even through and through and had no transfer of metal taste of any sort. These are dishwasher safe which is amazing when you're in a hurry with a family like mine. The cooking utensils that come with this set are easy to handle and of course, match perfectly. I definitely recommend purchasing this set. It is everything I needed and wanted for a cooking set!

I hate cooking but this pot set makes it fun. It sounds silly but i love the colors. They cook evenly and wash up great. Impressed with the color not coming off or fading.

The Mainstays Stainless Steel Cookware Set, Iridescent, 10 Piece really upgrades my kitchen by it's unique colorful design and comes with everything I use on a daily basis and is perfect to sear, saute, braise, and make sauces! I like how these are made lightweight and stainless steel with a iridescent handle that seems to be durable and easy to grip onto. The triple layered base makes it nice because it allowed more of a even heating that quickly got hot. When cooking I noticed the pans to be better then I expected, using the metal utensils that come with the set there was no scratches or scrapes and the food did not stick to pans. The pans and utensils do get hot so make sure to have a pot holder handy. Also the lids are able to with stand heat and do not shatter or crack when cooking or baking in the oven. I did notice a minimal amount of stain after washing but nothing major to worry about. My overall thoughts I like that these are lightweight and easy to hold, comes with everything I need to make a meal, have a unique colorful design that does not fade, easy to clean and dishwasher safe, function and handle well, made with good quality and durability that will last a long time.

This is a beautiful cookware set and so far I am very happy with it. Shiny silver mixed with beautiful iridescent handles. Everyone loves rainbow colors they are beautiful. The food I have cooked in them so far has turned out great with no issues with sticking and then clean up is really easy. The are easy to hand wash or put in the dishwasher. I really like that it comes with 3 different sized pots, serving utensils and a saute pan. I do wish the saute pan was a little bigger though its only about the size of my hand. Based on the picture on the box I was thinking it would be bigger. I have 5 boys and a husband to cook for so I need a bigger one bc I have to cook large servings. I wish it was bigger but I am sure it would be the perfect size for others, so it's not too small. The handles do get somewhat hot but mostly just on the lids. I haven't used this product longer enough to know if the color will stay or how they will hold up but so far so good. I would recommend them to someone, in fact I plan to buy the same set to give as a wedding gift

I would have gave 5 stars but I was a little disappointed when I first took the plastic off one of the pots, it looked almost used (just the one pot) it had a scratch on the handle and inside the pot was a black ring as if it had been used. The rest of the utensils were good in fact I loved them so much I didn't want to go through the trouble of returning and getting another set. It was a small scratch and it came all wrapped and in the box so I'm not sure if it happened during shipping or what. I would still recommend because everything was beautiful

When this was first delivered I couldn't believe a whole dish set could fit in the box because it looked too small. Once I opened it I saw that the pots and pans were small. The pots are very pretty I like the colors and the stainless steel together. Love the fact that every pot has a lid. The biggest pot and pan uses the same lid. The handles get too hot and should have some type of other material over them. I wont even use the spoons, stainless against stainless is a no no. I fried sausages on very low and also sprayed with cooking spray but the food still stuck to the pan. I think these pots are good for food with liquid involved not for frying. My rice and vegetables come out great.  I would say this set will be good for a individuals first apartment with a small budget

This stainless steel cookware set is absolutely gorgeous! The irradessent utensils, handles and knobs really make this set unique. Unfortunately the color does not seem to last. I did not wash these in the dishwasher. I only washed them by hand and the beautiful coloring appears to be washing away. Otherwise the set seem to be holding up well. The sides of the pans seem to be a bit thin but the bottoms of the pans are medium thickness. Holding them they seem to have decent weight and seem durable initially. I would not use high heat with these pans. Due to the thickness of the metal I am being cautious to not warp the pans by using high heat. The handles do get hot on medium-high heat. Food does stick easily to these pans and I have used different types of coatings to try to prevent it. I don't reccomend this set if buying for the irradessent look but for functionality it is holding up ok so far. I did recieve this cookware set in exchange for my honest oponion.

The Mainstays Iridescent Stainless Steel Cookware Set is very eye-catching and definitely stands out visually amongst other cookware. While the iridescent handles are undoubtedly beautiful, I am disappointed by the quality of the pans. The handles get too hot and you need potholders to prevent getting burned. These pans cannot handle high heat as per the instructions, but even on medium heat the handles are too hot to touch. The pans smoke very quickly which causes the food to get stuck and leave marks. No matter how many times I wash it the stains won't come off. I always make sure to use oil or cooking spray and the food always sticks to the pan. Cleaning the pans is so frustrating! I've soaked the pans with hot water and soap for 20 minutes to see if that would remove the stains but it doesn't. The included utensils - spoon, slotted spoon and slotted turner have the same beautiful iridescent finish as the pan handles, but after a few washes the paint is already starting to fade. While the lids are convenient, the screws on the knobs have already started to loosen so I had use a screwdriver to tighten them several times. I cook everyday and unfortunately this won't be the set I'll be reaching for first. The quality of cooking is not what I expected it to be.
