I really loved the look of this cookware, with the contemporary style and clean lines. The construction is great too; it is pleasantly heavy and certainly appears and feels like it will last you a lifetime. The sad thing, though, and this prevented me replacing my worn, cheap student cookware with Bodum Chef peices (which I really wanted to do!) is that when I use this pan on my gas cooktop, even with a low heat (no flames licking the side), the handles get too hot to touch. Perhaps it's just this peice, because it's quite a small stock pot, but regrettably I deleted this stuff from my wish list. I wanted to buy their gorgeous pasta pot with strainer, and decided not to take the risk, because of my experience with this one.

I would really urge the manufacturers to take another look at this aspect of the cookware and see if they can do anything about it, because it really is some nice looking, quality cookware.
