Excellent pots and pans!
My wife says: Love the comfortable cool touch handles, light weight, pour spouts, and strainer lids, all of which make this set an excellent kitchen workhorse. I just got rid of a set of All Clad that scratches when even you use nylon utensils, these are SOOO much better!!!For those who are complaining that these pots are not stainless and are ruined from staining, that’s nonsense. Staining is very common when you have pans that have excellent heat distribution and retention, stainless discolors when it gets super hot. All the pictures shown here with discoloration are completely normal. Oil burns and browns, excessive heat causes rainbow stains, and salt causes pitting and white spots... all completely normal, doesn’t affect the performance, and is easy to remedy. Just use BARKEEPERS FRIEND and a SCOTCH BRIGHT scrubber pad, they’ll look new with very little effort. I usually just wash normally, and use barkeepers as needed once a week or so.Additionally, you need to pre-heat a stainless pan well in order for it to be non-stick, you'll then only need a small amount of oil or butter, and the pan will be completely non stick and clean up easily. It should be hot enough so a few drops of water dropped in the heated pan rolls around in the pan without breaking or evaporating. If you have a surface temp thermometer, you're looking for a temp just over 200°F. Once your pan is up to temp, add a small amount of oil or butter, reduce the temp if desired, and add your food. Easy, and so much healthier!These are designed in Texas by a Woman Owned Small Business, and made in China. Lots of great products are made in China, you just have to make sure you buy from an American Company who has authority over the materials and manufacturing process. I couldn’t be happier with the product and service I received.
