I read all the reviews,especially by chefs using this product.
Well they weren't wrong! This is a fantastic set of cookware,at a fabulous price! Any set I had found even close to these were in the $400 to $600 range.
They are so sturdy,not to heavy,and the lids fit down into the pots about 1/2",making a very snug fit and decreasing cook/boil times. Also,if anyone else looked at the pictures and thought they are glass lids,they aren't. They look so shiny in the photos,I was afraid that they were glass.(which I think glass lids are useless anyway,they steam up in two seconds).
If you have read any other reviews I have posted,you know that I "do my homework" before buying ANYTHING!
So let me save you the time I spent and JUST BUY THEM!

I got this set about two weeks ago and figured I'd use all the pieces a bit before I wrote a review. I have to admit that my first impression of the set was pure joy. I had been using a ten-year-old Revereware set, good in its own right, but there were some things I disliked about the Revereware, mainly the fact that the bottoms did not make good contact with my stove burners (ceramic top). These pots and pans were so shiny right out of the box, so much heavier than I expected, and so obviously worth the money I paid for them, that I was thrilled. They are SO much heavier than expected. Not heavy in a bad way, like you can't lift them or anything. Just not cheap and easy to dent. I had never used a frying pan not coated in Teflon, and I was a little intimidated by the fact that these are not nonstick. Since this was the very reason I bought them (Teflon is evil) I decided to dive right in. This has been my experience so far, even though I can't comment on the overall longevity of the set at this time.
*I love the finish. These are so pretty, I intend to get a pot rack and hang them for all to see!
*The lids are awesome. Nice tight fit. I think they may even be weighted. I didn't want glass lids for breakage reasons, and the lids from my old pans had a lip that trapped moisture underneath. I was forever burning myself or dripping water all over the stove every time I lifted the lid to check something.
*I chose this set over the Cuisinart set because of the three sizes of saucepans, which my old set had and I am used to.
*Love the handles! I didn't think I would at first, but they really do stay cool and are grippy so you're less likely to drop a full pot when transferring it.
*Easy to clean. I haven't tried frying an egg or anything, but I think for everything except eggs and pancakes these will be wonderful. I made pizza sauce in the larger fry pan and it cleaned up in a snap. I even melted chocolate and marshmallow for some cookies in the saucepans and those also cleaned up quite easily.
Now for a couple things that could be better:
*The set could have included a lid for the smaller fry pan. I assumed that the lid to the one of the saucepans pot would fit the smaller fry pan as well (my old set was this way) and was slightly disappointed to find that this is not the case.
*One of the saucepans has some "pitting" on the inside bottom that was not there when I opened the box. Another reviewer mentioned this too. I tried cleaning it with baking soda and water as the instructions suggest, but no dice.
*You must be very diligent about drying these IMMEDIATELY if you don't want water spots on them. I know that is the nature of the beast, my other stainless is the same, but it's a bummer. I want them fresh and shiny clean all the time, and they just don't look as nice if left to air-dry.
Just some minor gripes. They were SO worth the money, especially since the price jumped fifteen bucks the day after I ordered them, and I got a forty dollar rebate to boot. I almost spent 3 times more on a much costlier set, but I suspect I would have been paying for the name. Of course KitchenAid is also a brand name, and a darn good one at that, (I am in love with my Artisan stand mixer) so why not the pots and pans set? After reading all the positives here on Amazon, I decided to try them and I'm so glad I did!

I ordered this product late Saturday and received it the following Wednesday! That was much faster than I expected! The cookware looks and feels great! I'm a happy camper!

Very nice product at very nice price. The pans can be tough to clean after frying; however, I think that's typical of stainless steel pans. I definitely recommend this product.

I was initially hesitant to purchase this set because of the low price...low price usually equals low quality, not so here. These are wonderful!! Excellent weight. I like my cookware to be a little on the heavy side and these are wonderful. Heavy enough that you know you have bought something of quality but not so heavy you never want to use it. Perfect balance. The lids even are weighted. Handles are great also. Stay cool and will not slip out of your hands if you have a slick substance on your hands. And the best feature of all.... beautiful and dishwasher safe!!!
