Wonderful! ... but for one flaw
UPDATE after one year:These pans are great. I've used some of them literally every day and they look and work as well as the day I received them. I got past being bugged by the small flaw on one of them, mentioned below. The finish on these has held up one-hundred percent.Sure, there's a tiny bit of a tendency to stick, but they clean up extremely well. I've resorted to using a little bit of spray-on dish soap with some baking soda and 50% vinegar/water on them a few times after an especially messy stir fry session. They have cleaned up spotless and seriously like the day I bought them. If I posted pictures today and when I bought them, you would never see the difference. I even cooked one for quite some time with no water, something has ruined pans in the past. This one took it like a champ.They're a bit lightweight, but the heat distribution is pretty good. I've been using them with a glass-top electric range, if that's any help.I've put back the star I took off originally. I think these deserve it.ORIGINAL REVIEW:I'll start off by saying I really, really like this set of cookware. I'll also say that Blue Diamond customer service is responsive and professional. However, I can't help but take a star off due to a little bit of damage in the arrived product. I discovered four small dents in the cooking surface of the 9.5" frying pan. They won't affect the performance, but I can't help being just a little bit bugged every time I see them.In the hope of not having to return the whole set I reached out to Blue Diamond customer service. They responded quickly asking for photos and order details. However, ultimately, they declined to replace just the one piece. Sure, I could have returned the whole set no questions asked but have decided not to do that.So I'm writing this to say 1) This is a really, really nice set, and 2) Check everything very, very carefully on receipt. Other than this small disappointment, I'm very very happy with the purchase. I just need to get over my OCD until such time as I bang the darn things up enough myself to no longer notice this.

Great starter cookware set for budding chefs
The chief and laudable feature of the Blue Diamond cookware set is its non-stick surface and, secondly among all its pieces is its light weight. For, and with this manufactured process, one may stovetop bake. Caution is to maintain low flame temperature, else half-way through the baking time be prepared necessarily to 'flip' the product baking; otherwise, may a thick lacquered charcoal bottom result. Another baking method that completely avoids any charred bottom crust is and in a bain marie to steam the baked good. While steaming does take longer for the product to cook, this method is equally effective as convection oven baking. The only different, of course is the lack of a browned top crust. Therefore, and for the more appealing browned top crust, one may wish to experiment with 'flipping' the product. / One other aspect to this cookware set is the 2 utensils included. Although very light and perhaps, also flimsy yet in design -in particular- the spatula- actually 'fits' the fry pan and skillet, facilitating use.

This Cookware Holds Up to the Hype
Why did you pick this product vs others?:I love this cookware set more than any set I've had so far! Normally I don't buy in to the hype of name brand items (my Pioneer Woman skillet isn't that old and already losing its coating), but I feel Blue Diamond really does provide most of what it claims. The nonstick coating is amazing! Most of the time I cook with a little bit of oil or butter, but even without anything like that, not much food is left behind, if any. Cleanup is so easy which is high in my list of important factors because I hate doing the dishes. They say they're dishwasher safe, but I haven't tried that yet because so far all that's needed is just a quick, gentle swipe with a soft sponge and it's ready to go again! I do feel like they heat up faster and cook more evenly than other pans I've used. I haven't noticed any warp of the base yet either, and I've even put one in the oven to bake a frittata and it turned out great with no damage to the pan, just as claimed.That being said, there a couple things I've had problems with. While amazing, the coating isn't quite as scratch resistant as I've been told. In the product video, they portray that it's safe to use metal utensils. I'm not sure if it was my whisk or which utensil, but one of my skillets already has a couple scratches in it - and I've only been using them about 6 months (see pic). Maybe there was a weak spot in the coating on the set I got...? Also, the metal handles are sturdy, but they get very hot (especially the lids), even with simple everyday cooking (not slow cooking or baking in the oven). It would be nice if they had some sort of silicone coating or something, but then I suppose maybe they wouldn't be as oven-safe. At any rate, I still love this set and feel it is well worth the money! I will keep my eye on this brand for further cooking needs.

Nice set!
I bought these for myself for Christmas of 2024. I have been extremely happy with this set of pots and pans. The set includes a variety of sizes. I like the weight of these, not too heavy but am happy with the way they have held up for the last year. I would buy this brand again without any doubt.

Great set of pans
I've had my set going on 2 years. I have an ingredient household so I cook a lot. The pans are still in amazing shape. None of them have any scratches. The weight is perfect. Nothing seems to stick either. Cleanup is always a breeze no matter what I cook. The various sizes work well and the pans heat evenly. I was concerned about the metal handles getting hot but they don't.
