I bought this pan set at Amazon about a year ago. I LOVE them! This is my first "real" set of pots and pans. I am a persistent researcher and I spent weeks researching pots and pans before I settled on this set. I learned about how the non-stick coating is bad for you - and my cheapie non stick pans had flaked up, etc... I wanted something that had NO coating on it. These pans are beautiful. They are shiny and have been easy to keep that way. I did make 1 mistake when I first got them - I used a plastic spatula in the frying pan and accidentally melted it on the frying pan when I held it too long in one place! I researched and found that cream of tartar sauce would remove it and make it like new and it did :) Whew! So, the food cooks evenly. It says in the instructions NEVER to turn your stovetop burners on high when using these pans and I go to number 7 max and that has worked perfectly. No need to go to super high heat because these pots allow water to come to a boil pretty quickly on 7 (which my old nonstick pots never did). Hmmm. Mine have not pitted. I use them everyday to cook. I put them in the dishwasher without anything touching them of course (so they don't scratch while being washed). I keep them stored without stacking and don't stack them in the sink (to prevent exterior surface scratching). So far not one single scratch! I was thinking about buying a second set as backups and/or for display on a pot rack I just bought and use the pots I already have as my everyday pots and pans. Is that crazy?

If I were to do it over again, I probably would have gone with a high end nonstick set. Stainless steel can be inconvenient. Make sure you purchase Barkeeper's Friend to remove discoloration every 3-6 months. Aside from that gripe, the set is heavy duty and well-made. It also looks more professional than nonstick.

I purchased this based on the recommendations from Cook's Illustrated. Since I can't afford the price of All-Clad, this cookware appeared to be a good value at less than half the price. I was replacing a mish-mash of worn-out non-stick and wanted something which would last longer. I have been please with its performance.
First, I had to adjust downward the burner temperatures I used on my glass-top electric stove since these pans are much more efficient. The highest level I use is slightly above half-power, and I've had no difficulties with burning or sticking. Also, do not shock hot cookware by spraying or immersing it in cold water so as to keep it from warping.

I returned my one and one-half quart pan which was pitted and was advised that it would be replaced under warranty. When my replacement arrived, I then sent in my two quart and three quart pans which were also pitted. All this pitting occurred only after five months of use. My replacement one and one-half quart pan started pitting after only being used three times. I called customer service and was advised that I could return the replacement, at my expense once again, and received another replacement. I told them that this would not solve anything since this was an obvious problem in them being manufactured in China. I wanted to return the whole set and receive a full refund as I had spent $56.54 on postage so far and the problem continues. They REFUSED to even consider paying the postage on the replaced one and a half guart pans second return. I have lost all confidence in their product brand after over 30 years of owning their products.

We did quite a bit of research before choosing this as our first full cookware set, and so far we've tested everything but the pasta insert. As far as doing what it's supposed to, we have no complaints. The pots and pans heat evenly and quickly. In fact, we never need to turn our oven higher than moderate heat just to boil water. The steamer was great for artichokes and it's so handy to have a nice big frying pan for stirfry. However, from the first use the bottoms and insides of the pans began to discolor. We cook a lot and expected some wear and tear but certainly not so quickly or to this extent. Still, I can't complain about the quality for the price.
