I paid $49 for this set on a Friday sale, and at that price it's a good deal. While the pans are not as heavy and durable as Circulon Commercial, they are comfortable to use, they cook evenly, and they clean up easily. The lids are excellent. The two large lids are interchangeable and fit the 10" skillet as well as the stockpot and saute pan. (Unlike a prior reviewer, I had no difficulty peeling off the stickers.)

I am now looking into contacting Cuisinart about the set I bought last December. The first set we got started shedding its non-stick cover within 2 weeks. Amazon promptly replaced it with another one. Now, a year later, I have thrown away all items except frying pans because of the same issue. Even though this set looks good, it does not have the quality to last more than one year.

If you are a non stick cookware fan this is a great set! I too had no trouble with stickers. The red color is nice, the non stick surface works great, the pans are heavy weight, padded handles are a super nice feature and the lids are heavy. Coming from a 10 year old T-fal set these are a serious upgrade. And my Friday sale price was 59.99, worth every penny!

I bought this set when it was offered for sale at $39.99 by Amazon. It is a great set at that price, however, the price has risen to $149.00. I would be disappointed if I paid that much for it.

I once thought that I would buy a more expensive set once my children grew up and left home but now that I'm older they are too heavy for me. This set is light enough not to aggravate the arthritis in my hands and sturdy enough to stand up to daily wear.

The non-stick surface does a fantastic job and clean up is a breeze.

I bought this set because it was a good price. I did not think that I was going to be the happiest with the "red" color, but as it turns out, it is a deeper, richer color than the picture portrays. The pans feel nice and heavy (not as heavy as a much more expensive set) but very nice for the price I paid. The non-stick surface is just that - non-stick and easy to clean. The bottom of the pans is the part I like - there are no "hot spots" to burn my food as I am cooking. I do have a husband and teenaged son who are hard on things but so far these pans are standing up to their abuse. For the price, I would definitely recommend these.

Amazon forced me to give this product 1 star. It deserves 0. This crappy set of cookware has the non-stick surface peeling after only a few months of occasional use by a single guy. And I know how to take care of non-stick: no extreme heat, no metal utensils, no dishwasher, no de-glazing, no scotch-brite etc. I have had medium-low end sets (e.g. Club Aluminum) of cookware that lasted over 5 years. Cuisinart saucepan failed after 2 months. Frying pan failed after 3 months. I contacted Cuisinart service via their email function and never heard back. THIS IS THE LOWEST QUALITY POSSIBLE FOR COOKWARE. BUY IT ONLY IF YOU LIKE TO EAT TEFLON!

I bought this product for $49.99. I love this set. The only thing I wish is that the lids (once turned upside down) were more condusive to stacking on top of the pans without sliding off. Other than that, they are a great set of pans.

A great set of pots and pans! Let's see:

(*) The surface is just like any other non-stick surface I used, except for the rivets that are not non-stick.
(*) The rubberized handles are nice.
(*) The glass lids are great, except that if the lid is hard, and you want to hold it upside-down in one hand while stirring the pans with the other hand so that the steam doesn't drip, the handle makes it hard to hold since they are not wide enough.
(*) You can use them in the oven! However, at around 400 degrees, the handles get much more flexible than they should be, so I don't think I'll ever try baking in these pots and pans, despite the label on the box explicitly allowing me to.
(*) The medium-dark red colouration is great!

These a great for basic day-to-day cooking, and I don't regret bying this set at all. (Though because of the two shortcomings I mentioned above, the product only gets four stars.) Make sure to get some nylon spatulas, though!

I first found this deal on a HT board and knew that Cuisinart was an excellent brand so I ordered them. Before I received them I saw one or two reviews that they weren't as nice as others had expected. I was a little leary until mine arrived. I'm not sure if these people were professional chef's or what, but I bought these to replace a T-Fal set and I think they are WONDERFUL! They are a nice/fun color and the quality is just as high as the ones they replaced.

It wasn't even a year before the paint on the exterior looked horrible (all scratched up) and the non-stick coating began coming loose and flaking away. We had to throw away a few pots and pans already. In my opinion, this is junk.
