Construction and quality

This cookware set boasts a solid build that is not too heavy. Its 18/10 stainless steel construction, coupled with a multi-element aluminum core, ensures excellent heat transfer, and the attention to detail is superb.

The interior surface is smooth and features a hard layer of premium-grade 18/10 stainless steel. All the pots, pans, and lids (except for the steamer basket lid) have stylish air-flow “stay cool” handles, making them easy to hold without the risk of burning yourself.

Unlike some brand-name cookware that feature aluminum rivets, which eventually grey due to oxidation, this set has all-stainless steel rivets that won’t grey.

A good indicator of quality is that this cookware set comes with a standard limited lifetime warranty that guarantees the product to be free of defects in material and workmanship for the lifetime of the cookware under normal household use.

Use

To use this cookware correctly, it is recommended to pre-heat it with some oil, which helps prevent food from sticking to the surface. With the proper technique, you can sear meats and even fry eggs without them sticking to the cookware. Most other foods, such as vegetables, can be cooked without sticking to the surface and without requiring special techniques.

This set is oven-safe up to 450 ° F and is compatible with any type of stovetop, including induction, gas, and ceramic. The heat distribution is even and well-distributed, regardless of the type of stovetop used. This means you typically don’t need to heat the cookware too much and can cook on a lower temperature.

Cleaning and maintenance

If this cookware is used on low heat, it is very easy to clean with soap and warm water. However, if it is used on higher heat, food may stick to the bottom, resulting in a sticky mess that can be difficult to clean.

The best way to clean this set is to scrape it with a wooden spatula or let it soak for about 10 minutes for tougher residue. Barkeeper’s Friend can be used to remove stains. Additionally, the set is dishwasher safe, so it can be easily cleaned by placing it in the dishwasher.

Value for money

This cookware set offers great value for your money. You can get this 12-piece set for a slightly lower price compared to other brands, while still getting the same or even better quality.
