Cook N Home Kitchen Cookware Sets, 12-Piece Basic Stainless Steel Pots and Pans, Silver

Not often lately have I felt that I've gotten my money's worth from things, but these pots are different. They are very simple yet very nice. The bases are thick so they transfer heat well with out warping. The lids are all glass and have a nice feeling handle. The pots and pans all have a nice handle as well. For 6 quality pots and pans I feel like this purchase was worth the money.

I’ve been using this cookware set for over 6 months now, and they still look and perform like the first day. The stainless steel is durable, easy to clean, and distributes heat evenly—no hot spots or burning.I love that they work on different stovetops, and the glass lids let me see how the food is cooking without lifting them. The handles are sturdy and comfortable, and the whole set feels high quality.Most importantly, I feel good cooking with these because stainless steel is a healthy, non-toxic option—no coatings or chemicals. If you're looking for a reliable, long-lasting cookware set, this one is definitely worth it.

Good thickness and quality. Lids all fit nice and tight. Would buy again.

Buena calidad. Excelente juego de ollas en acero inoxidable

Seems like these are adequate quality wise. Price makes this an even better buy.

I bought these pans 2 years ago, and they still work just fine! Overall this is a pretty good deal for how cheap they are. I'm thinking it's time for an upgrade, however. I am an avid home cook, and in addition to this set I use a variety of frying pans.The first thing I need to say is this: if you have not used stainless steel and are used to non-stick, you have some learning to do! Do your research and learn how to use your cookware. The biggest things to remember: preheat your pan before adding food and use plenty of oil. If your meat sticks, that's a good thing; just wait until it releases on its own to move it around the pan. Later you can add some liquid (water, wine, vinegar, stock, etc.) to deglaze or release all of the lovely flavorful browned bits on the bottom of the pan. If you are a novice, I would recommend that you continue to use non-stick for delicate foods like eggs and fish.Now that that's out of the way, let's get to the review.UseabilityThese pots will boil water! Perfect for making pasta, ramen, and anything with copious amounts of liquid. The bottoms have a tendency to scorch when there isn't as much water present, so you'll want to stir frequently. I've made fudge, caramel, and toffee in that dutch oven, and it only scorched at the very end. I'm used to this, and it just means that I can't scrape the bottom.The frying pan has deep walls, so it will trap moisture and cause less evaporation than a pan with lower, sloping sides. I don't use this one very often, opting instead for non-stick (for ease of use and of clean-up), carbon steel, or cast iron. Again, these pans don't fare so well in a low-moisture setting.The handles are odd. Typically with the two-handled pots, one handle will get hot and one will stay cool during the cooking process, and that's if I use the correct burner size.The lids have vents, but they still rattle loudly when your water comes to a boil. It kind of works as an alarm so that I know the water is boiling - like the whistle of a tea kettle.DurabilityThe casserole/dutch oven type pans are what I use the most, like one would use a sauce pan. Those have held up really well, and with a little bit of Barkeeper's Friend would look brand new. These are lightweight and probably won't take much of a beating, but with normal use they will last just fine. I haven't had any lids break on me, either.The fry pan, however, has a warped bottom. Within a few months or so, the encapsulated bottom formed a 2-inch bubble, so it doesn't sit flat on the stove top.The handles are hollow, but I haven't had problems with strength. None of them have bent or buckled.Clean-UpFood comes off of these just fine, although sometimes they require a good soak. We have hard water, so spots are inevitable, and sometimes the "rainbow" effect is too, but with some Barkeeper's Friend they shine like new. My roommate blackened the entire bottom of the frying pan, and I anticipate that it will scrub away just fine, because that powder is magical.The hollow handles like to collect water, so I make sure to let my pans dry thoroughly before hanging them back on my wall.The Bottom LineIf you're a casual home cook, a broke college student, or just someone who needs to boil water, I highly recommend this set. It's cheap and it works. If you have more money to spend and are looking for quality cookware, you should probably go for something else, but it's hard to be disappointed by a $45 set of pans.
