Quality Cookware at an Excellent Price
I purchased this set about six weeks ago am very pleased with it to date. I enjoy cooking and cook most meals "from scratch," rarely relying on anything pre-packaged for a meal, so these pots and pans get a workout on a daily basis. Since purchasing them I've cooked dishes from oatmeal to pork tenderloin, squash soup to rice pilaf.The set is good looking, the lids fit perfectly, the pot handles are comfortable to grip even with a full pot (much better than my one Calphalon pan). In my kitc...

Great buy for the money
If you are looking for the quality of All-Clad or Calphalon but not necessarily willing to fork over the dough, then this is a great set for the money. Fast, even heating; good looks; versatility (stove to oven to even freezer, if need be...); and a decent combination of pieces in the set made it the perfect choice for me, after nearly a year of research.I don't find it as difficult to clean as other reviewers have commented. I will say that the mirror finish does show wear after just a few u...

oustanding products
I got two sets a year ago, one for me and one for my daughter. To those i slowly added a lot of other pieces. Not only the price is unbeatable, this cookware is outstanding.... I also own some All-Clad, and I must say that the Cuisinart compares beautifully. I highly recommend this set!!!

Solid construction and design
Any shopper who is name conscious should stop for a moment and seriously consider this seven piece set. Cuisinart, a mainstay in the kitchen offers the cook in the household this wonderful 7 piece cookware set and Amazon.com offers it at an exceptional price.The set features 18-10 Stainless Steel construction that makes each piece feel substantial. The design also aids in convection and, thus, requires less heat from the stove top but that Heat is not transferred to the handle making the hand...

Looks great, performs well - a bit of work to clean
I bought this set from Amazon over a month ago. I live alone and have cooked rarely (about 4 times) since I bought it. I bought it because:
1. Stainles steel looks great
2. It was a good brand at a depply discounted price.
I did know before buying that stainless steel cooks slowly and needs a lot more patience than cooking with non-stick. I had also heard that cleaning is not as easy as with non-stick. Here are my comments:
If the pots and pans are cleaned as dir...

Be a smart shopper and avoid this set!!! (Why 5-Stars then?)
The 5-piece starter set includes the 8 qt. covered stockpot, 3 qt. covered pot and 10" open skillet. This set sells (curently on the Amazon site) for $49.99. Add the 1 1/2 qt. covered sauce pan (curently on the Amazon site) for $13.99 and your TOTAL will be $63.98!!! Thus you have saved $5.00 and can buy the wonderful open stock 3 1/2 qt. saute' pan with helper handle and lid for $20.99. Thus, you have ended up with a very fine 9-PIECE Cuisinart set for a few dollars more than the 7-piece se...

As good as All Clad without the price
This is a great cookware set and a great value. If you are considering stainless steel cookware, this is the set to buy. I own All-Clad and Cuisinart pieces, and the Cuisinart has the same heavy construction, riveted handles,and even heating as All-Clad. The Cuisinart actually looks a little nicer because the exterior is shinier. As another review wrote, the handles are a little akward to use, but for the price, this set can't be beat.

Good-but hard to keep clean.
I am pleased with the performance and style of the Cuisinart Chef's Classic. Looks good and cooks generally ok. I just wanted to mention a few problems I've had. 1. Dishwasher safe-the say ok but they don't recommend it because food particles from other items in the dishwasher may scratch the surface. 2. After one use, the pan interior surfaces fail to maintain the original luster. The manufacturer provides very specific cleaning directions, but even following them I find the pans hard to...

difficult to clean
I agree with the previous review - these are nice pans at a great price - good quality ... however, I spend way too much time scrubbing them as apposed to some other pans I've owned (even though I always use low heat). The only way to get them clean is with steel wool or scouring powder. I guess I'm spoiled after using Tfal and Berndes.

great value
I agree with other reviewers that this is terrific cookware for a remarkable price. It heats evenly, is easy to clean, and looks great too. My only criticism is the handles are a bit slender for my taste -- a little uncomfortable to hold onto, especially when a pot is full. Having said that, I love the set, and know I will enjoy using it for years to come.
