Product Description

From the Manufacturer

This 10-piece cookware set is part of the Berndes Tradition line. The set includes a 9-1/2-inch and 11-inch skillet, 2-1/2-quart sauté pan, 1-1/4-quart and 2-quart saucepans, 10-quart stockpot, and several glass lids.

Berndes Tradition cookware is manufactured using vacuum-pressure casting. High-grade aluminum alloys are melted and forced into a mold, ensuring the absence of air bubbles and resulting in a thick base, thin sides, no interior rivets, lightweight construction, and a perfectly flat bottom that never warps. The aluminum base delivers excellent heat distribution and is perfect for gas, electric, and ceramic stovetops.

The cookware's interior and exterior nonstick surfaces ensure easy cleanup and the coating is guaranteed to never chip, crack, peel, blister, or come off. The nonstick surface allows the user to cook by adding little or no fat. Berndes does nonstick right--in 1975, DuPont and Berndes were the first companies to launch nonstick cookware in Europe. Users are not recommended to use metal utensils with Tradition cookware.

The cookware's rustic wooden handles are cool to the touch on the stovetop. In addition, the cookware may be used in the oven when wrapped with foil. Tradition cookware should not be washed in the dishwasher, as the handles may dry out from the heat.

9-1/2-inch skillet, 11-inch skillet, 2-1/2-quart sauté pan with lid, 1-1/4-quart saucepan with lid, 2-quart saucepan with lid, 10-quart stockpot with lid

5.0 out of 5 stars This my favorite nonstick cookware, September 10, 2006

I purchase both the 7 and 10 piece set of Tradition and use Berndes non-stick all the time and it is the best & most durable nonstick I have ever used. I have used non-stick by Calphalon, all Clad, Circulon, ScanPan, + others but none is as good as Berndes. It is NO STICK like no other brand around.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't go wrong with these!, July 20, 2008

This review is from: Berndes Tradition 10-Piece Set (Kitchen)

I purchased a couple Berndes pans around 10 years ago at Marshalls and they're still going strong. I always grab for these over any of my others (Le Creuset/Cuisinart. I agree with other reviewers in that I've NEVER had anything stick ... and I make slow cooked steel cut oats every week. They also look as good as they did when I purchased them (I bought the kind with the two curved side handles as appossed to the wood handles). There really are no down sides to them other than the expense ... but they're definately worth it, and a good investment.

Update: 08/09 ... still my favorite pans; I purchased a full set for my summer rental cottage last year and they are holding up great. Good looking, easy to clean, and nothing ever sticks to the skillets.

Simply buy one piece of Berndes such as a small skillet, wash & dry it, then heat it to medium heat without oil and drop in a fresh egg. NO STICK. Nothing, no matter the cost, will pass this test as beautifully as Berndes. Steel cut oats are always a cleaning/scrubbing challenge in Creuset or AllClad but rinse out of these pans with almost no effort.

This cookware is without peer and is a joy to use.
