Amazon.com Review
This budget-priced cookware set is perfect for college students or young couples who are setting up a first kitchen. The 14-piece set has everything necessary for the basic meals attempted by entry-level cooks (pasta and sauce, eggs, and anything pre-packaged). The pans in the set include four covered saucepans in 1-, 1-1/2-, 2-, and 4-1/2-quart sizes and two nonstick skillets in 9- and 10-1/2-inch sizes. The pans are accompanied by four kitchen tools: a slotted spatula, a ladle, a slotted spoon, and a pasta fork.

Made of aluminum, which is an excellent conductor of heat, these pans warm up through the bottoms and sides for even cooking. A nonstick coating on the interior and exterior of the pan reduces the need to cook with extra fats and makes cleanup fast and easy. Pans have durable, riveted phenolic handles that stay cool on the stovetop and see-through glass lids for keeping an eye on supper as it cooks. The 14-piece cookware set is oven-safe up to 350 degrees F and is dishwasher safe. --Cristina Vaamonde

Exterior paint peels off after a couple of uses
This looked like a great deal at $39.99 with free shipping, so I even gave it as a gift to a friend. To my disappointment, the exterior paint or coating started peeling on the saucepans after a couple of uses. Checked with my friend, and guess what - the same thing ! Perhaps, one could live with an ugly exterior because the interior non-stick surface is still alright, but I wouldn't gift this set to anybody else.

Nonsense nonstick
my husband got this to start our married life, and in just 6-8 months all the vessels have their nonstick peeling. very unhealthy for the nonstick material to mix with the food!! just bought a new stainless steel set!

Disappointed in Product
Although I have only used one of the saucepans from the set of cookware, I am not happy with the results. The black coating on the bottom of the pan, after the first use, began to "flake off". Quite frankly, I am now sorry that I donated my other set of cookware to a charity, because even though it was well-used, I consider it to be better than this set of Farberware. The set was purchased because of the Farberware name and I am now very disappointed. However, since I paid relatively little for the set (and utilized a gift certificate), I am not about to go to the trouble and expense of returning it to the manufacturer for replacement. Rest assured, though, should anyone ask me, I will not be able to recommend this product to them.
