Amazon.com Review:
There's something clean and pure about cookware that's stainless steel inside and out. This stylishly finished version from KitchenAid's Gourmet Essentials series features a brightly polished interior that discourages food from sticking, and a handsomely brushed exterior with a shiny band along the rim. Each pan is entirely constructed of premium 18/10 stainless steel, except for the encapsulated aluminum disk in the base (aluminum makes a superior conductor of heat), and the silicone grip encasing the handle. Even the tight-fitting lids are stainless steel. Each piece is oven-safe to 400 degrees F and is dishwasher-safe.

Whether you want to fry up pancakes for breakfast, warm soup for lunch, or feed chili to a crowd, this set more than accommodates your most typical cooking needs. The 1-, 2-, and 3-quart saucepans all come with lids, as does the large 8-quart stockpot. The 8- and 10-inch French skillets are nice and deep, great for poaching eggs or stir-frying veggies. Stainless steel cooks most efficiently at medium heat, and can be used to start a dish on the stovetop and finish it in the oven. An excellent value, the set is covered by a lifetime limited warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri

- Great set of Pots and Pans for a great price
I have been using these pots and pans for about 2 months now and I simply love them! They are very very very very easy to clean - even though they are not the "non-stick". I was scared to buy anything with Teflon since they are saying it can be very dangerous - so I bought these. I was a little nervous at first, as I have always used non-stick in the past- but they are great! They never get so hot that you cannot touch them, they clean easily and they are perfect sizes. All in all - a very good ... Read More

I am very dissapointed with this set. Everything sticks to them. I guess I will go back to non-stick!

Hi All,
I purchased the cookware set after reading the reviews. I really researched before I purchased. I wanted a heavy duty set of cookware, without paying an outrageous amount of money. I am completely satisfied with my purchase. They are well made and heat up quickly. My favorite thing about them are the silicone handles. I have a gas stove, and it makes it much easier to adjust the position of the pot, with the cool touch handle.

Several reviews have indicated they are difficult ... Read More

- Mostly love it
We purchased this set after much deliberation and research. Consumer reports find them best in the SS category. We found that although we do like them, I was instantly disappointed upon opening the box to see a solid SS lid. The picture, after looking at the product's website and Amazon's site seemed as though the lids were clear glass. Not so. Also, they seem to keep a stain of even boiled water after use, coming out a tad dirty looking after going thru the dishwasher. After a light scrubbing with steel wool ... Read More

I bought this set after weeks of going back and forth between this set and Revere Ware. I wanted the Revere but heard that it wasn't made as well anymore and after reading all the great reviews about Kitchen Aid decided to buy it. I LOVE this set of cookware!! The pots are heavy, but not too heavy, with great grip handles. Things cook beautifully and clean up is easy. I heard that vinegar would get rid of caked on food and it does! This was the best set to get and I'm so happy with it! It's gorgeous!!
