Amazon.com Product Description
This cookware from Cuisinart's Chef's Classic series incorporates both the classic good looks of gleaming stainless steel with the ease of an interior nonstick finish. Not just any nonstick, this finish is Quantanium, a high-quality, long-lasting finish internally reinforced with titanium. Little or no oil is needed for cooking on this ultra-smooth surface, and low to medium heat is recommended, along with non-metal utensils. An aluminum core encapsulated in the base conducts heat quickly and evenly without hotspots. All the lids are break-resistant glass, and the handles are also stainless steel, riveted for strength. Every piece is oven-safe to 500 degrees F and dishwasher-safe.

This 14-piece set of commonly used pots and pans makes a great starter set for the home chef. The three saucepans, holding 1, 2, and 3 quarts, take care of most boiling, warming, and steaming needs; the 8- and 10-inch skillets turn out perfect eggs, pancakes, and browned sausage; the 3-quart covered sauté pan is a good size for stir-fried vegetables, fried chicken, or braised beef; and the ever-popular 8-quart stockpot feeds the whole family with soup, chili, or corn-on-the-cob. All but the skillets come with lids. And the 12-inch everyday pan lives up to its name, with room enough to pastas, stir-frys and more for the whole family. They're also oven-safe to 500 degrees F, so you can finish dishes begun on the stovetop in the oven. Hand wash with mild detergent. Backed by a limited lifetime warranty.

Customer Reviews

Great Cookware
I am really impressed with this cookware. It only takes a minute or two to heat the food and it is also easy to clean.
The only problem I have with my set is that the lining is really thin. If you soak anything in the big pot it will leave a permanent stain.

Dishwasher proof...love it!
The most important factor in my purchase of this product was they they can be washed in the dishwasher. With three kids, hand washing pots, pans and knives every night is just something I'm no longer willing to do. The manufacturer states that while these are dishwasher-proof, they still recommend hand washing. I have owned mine for a month now and washed them almost nightly in the dishwasher and they still look brand new. Quality is top-notch and worth every penny.

great pots with great price, i would've paid more!
this pot set is quite wonderful! i love the cleanability and dishwasher-safe stainless and the nonstick is fantastic! it's been hard to find a set with both attributes. the nonstick never needs soaking to get off tough, dried-on foods. the lids on a few are interchangeable, so you don't have to have too many lids. the 2qt. pot lid fits the 8-inch skillet. the 3qt. pot, the 3.5 quart saute pan, and the stock pot all have the same diameter, so any of their lids can be used with the 10-inch skillet.
the only thing i would change is the make the 3.5 quart saute pan a little deeper, maybe by an inch or two. i realize that would also change the capacity for the better. the encapsulated aluminum bottom on all the pots and skillets really provides even heating.
i definitely think it's worth it to get this 14-piece over the 12-piece. the only difference is the 12-inch everyday pan and it's lid which has come in more handy than i thought. it's a great size for 4-6 and possibly 8 servings of meat.
if you're looking for quality stainless and nonstick, you'll love this set!
