What the user said about this cookware set in Amazon?

Breana Lee Leflar - “Best Set Ever! This is the best pots and pans set I ever had. They are super easy to clean up..nothing sticks to them! Everything cooks evenly and nice. I am very happy and also bought the other matching pieces to this set.”

J. Novak - “Amazing Cookware! I received this cookware December 06 and have been cooking with it everyday since then. It is truly an amazing cookware set. It goes from stove top to oven with no problem. It looks nice hanging on my pot rack in my kitchen even after all of the use it gets from me and my family. The pots cook evenly and the food does not stick making clean up spectacularly fast and easy. I was lucky enough to receive and add to my collection this past Christmas the larger, deep oval skillet for large family dinners. I highly recommend this set for anyone from beginning cooks to very experienced ones”

There are couple very helpful amazon reviews on this hard-anodized KitchenAid Gourmet Essentials cookware set, personally I found this review is the most helpful one:

“I’ve owned more expensive cookware sets, but this moderately priced set from KitchenAid ranks with the best of them. All of my previous cookware was stainless steel or low-end aluminum, so I was not sure what to expect in terms of durability. However, this set has exceeded my expectations. The pans are wonderful to cook with, the non-stick coating beats anything I’ve tried before, the lids fit tightly, and the insulated handles make oven mitts unnecessary. I love how light the pans are — even full they are easy to lift and pour from. One note of caution: The domed lids and upright lid handles mean these pans require a bit more storage space than other sets I’ve used.” - CEG

Consumer report choose this KitchenAid Gourmet Essentials Cookware as best induction cookware and personally I think this cookware set is more then just a best induction cookware set, it’s could be easily vote as best general cookware set too

Anyway, this 10-piece set of uncoated stainless steel over aluminum will work on an induction cooktop and can go in the dishwasher afterward. Silicone rubber handles are ovenproof and comfortable.

What People Said About This KitchenAid Gourmet Essentials Cookware Set

J. Gaspard Review - Such value for money here, no need to spend 3-4x as much on All-Clad…these are just as heavy and put together just as well. I’m glad I could never get myself to drop the $$$ on the other companies product. I expected them to be nice from reading the Consumer Reports piece but I was blown away by this set.

This IS the set to buy, don’t get a nonstick set…from experience. Even the best coatings wear off over time, you can’t use metal whisks in them, and who really needs a nonstick stock pot?

You don’t need nonstick for most cooking, you will get better browning and pan sauces from a regular pan, yes you need nonstick for eggs and pancakes but you can always buy a matching nonstick skillet to go with these and still wind up spending much less.

Consumer report choose this Simple Calphalon Stainless Cookware Set as best value cookware and it’s have set an excellent score for evenness heating, and performed reasonably well in testing of nonstick durability. Base on the report, handles could be sturdier, but they are safe and comfortable. Cleaning the uncoated pieces require more effort but all component except frying pans are dishwasher safe.

What User Said About This Calphalon Cookware:

N. White Review - For almost two years I’ve had this set, along with a few others in the same product line that I’ve also purchased. I use at least a few of these daily. They have great weight and balance, good heat distribution, are easy to clean (especially the nonstick pans), and are very reasonably priced.

Before purchasing, I considered the tri-ply pans, however the handles were terrible, especially when trying to hold the additional weight of the pans themselves. Plus they are more expensive - not worth the price for the tri-ply.

I’d definitely recommend this set of Simply Calphalon pans to anyone - great product and good price.

Big kitchen brands add cookware lines. KitchenAid, known for its revered mixer, proved to have the best of the uncoated cookware.

Henckels, best known for knives, was very good overall. Viking, manufacturer of expensive, “professional-style” ranges, has also expanded into cookware with its Professional Starter Set, a good but pricey performer. There are more to come

Celebrity sells. Cookbooks and TV programs don’t seem to cut it anymore. If you want to be a celebrity chef these days, you need your own line of cookware.

What Are The Celebrity Cookware?

“Naked Chef” Jamie Oliver, for example, has a new line from T-Fal. Rachael Ray, known for her 30-minute meals, found time to lend her name to the Anolon Advanced line, while Daniel Boulud, perhaps best known for his New York City restaurant’s $29 hamburger, lent both his name and initials to the Daniel Boulud Kitchen (DBK) Generation line of uncoated cookware. Befitting his longtime celebrity-chef status, Emeril has two lines to his name: one nonstick, the other stainless steel. There are more but this what I can remember for now

This limited edition Staub 5.5 quart oval cocotte is just great. I was initially very hesitant to place an order for this particular item to try it out since many reviewers indicated that they had received defective or damaged cocottes with improper packaging. However, it was too much of an awesome deal to pass it out. Anyway, I think I”m in good hand since I order it from Amazon and Amazon have very generous refund or replacement policy. Well, it’s arrived in perfect condition and I just love it

What Other People Said About This Cocotte?

I Just received this 5.5 qt. cocotte. It arrived in perfect condition and is beautiful. It must be the color that makes this a “limited edition” as they have retired eggplant. This price is by far the best I have found anywhere. The suggested retail is about what you will pay anywhere else. Excellent product made in France with much of the labor done by hand. Comes with several recipies from well known chefs to get you inspired. Enjoy! - Ed

“My mom’s favorite! I got this as a gift for my mom for mother’s day because she’s been wanted one for so long. She absolutely loves it. Use it for everything from soups, to stews, to braising meat. She never understood the expense, but now that she has had a chance to use it, says she should have purchased this years ago - as it has replaced a few of her other pans. She appreciates the quality. The rooster on the lid is very handy to pick it up, better than a usual “button” handle.” - Sassy Radish
