Customer Review: Huge Bargain
Summary: 5 Stars
I came across this great pots and pans set on Amazon for $90. I wasn't really ready to buy, but the price seemed too good to pass up. I'm glad I purchased them. They look and work great. I'm happy to have my old mis-matched pans gone and have this heavy duty set in their place! Beautiful!Customer Review: Cuisinart 12 -piece set

Summary: 5 Stars
Purchased as a gift, I was so impressed with the great quality for the price that I purchased 2 more sets. Amazon refunded additional price drops with no questions asked. I prefer the feel and construction over Emerilware or Kitchenaid at almost half the price.Customer Review: Best value for the money
Summary: 4 Stars
I got a great deal on a single pan several months ago, loaned it out and never saw it again. I was heartbroken. Being frugal, I waited for another knock-out deal from Amazon. I got this entire set for $89.99, on sale. I can't say enough about how much I LOVE them. I couldn't have been more excited getting my worn out pots and pans ready for Goodwill.
There are only 2 things keeping them from 5 stars:
1)the sides of the pans are thin (I don't remember my other pan being this thin). Given that I'm going to cook on the bottoms & not the sides I'm not overly concerned.
2)the set comes with two lids of the same size. I would rather they put another pan than give me one more lid to keep up with. Although, I'm sure I'll be glad to have two when I use both pan and skillet at the same time.
Now, the good stuff. No more teflon to worry about coming off in my food. I can use whatever utensil I want without worrying about ruining a nonstick finish. When used properly (not too high heat), they are easy to clean up. I made two batches of scrambled eggs this morning. On the first one, I was using the wrong burner and turned the setting too high resulting in a film of egg left behind. Cleaned out the pan with a very light use of a brillo pad. Not really that difficult to do, but more work than teflon pan. I then had to make more eggs (growing boys!). Second go around, I was more careful and only used low-medium heat and a small amount of oil. There was absolutely no sticking. A simple wipe of the pan with a sponge and hot soapy water and the pan looked as good as new. VERY EASY.
Getting such a large set had me wondering how I would fit them all in my cabinets. But the pans nest into each other very nicely, so they require little space. I love the shiny finish, so I'm keeping the cardboard that came with them to pad between pans and minimize scratches. All I need now is a system for those pesky lids!
I would recommend these pans to anyone who wants a good quality set of pans and knows how to cook. They are a GREAT VALUE.
