Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Whether you're a fledgling cook or you just want to update your kitchen, you'll love this set of cookware from Cuisinart. The first thing you'll notice is the heft and feel--no wimpy cookware here. There's a nice balance to each piece, and the wide-grip handles fit the hand perfectly and stay cool no matter how much the pan is sizzling. The bottoms of each pan sit nice and flat on the cooking surface, and the lids fit tightly, sealing in the natural cooking flavors. The set is also amazingly versatile: begin a frittata on top of the stove, sprinkle on the cheddar cheese, and run it under the broiler; cook a pot of chili, pop it in the freezer, and when your guests arrive the following weekend, they'll think you're amazing. The pans clean up easily, maintaining their shine, and each handle is designed for hanging. --C. Whitney-Ward

5.0 out of 5 stars simply the best, November 5, 2000
This review is from: Cuisinart 99-5 Everyday Stainless-Steel 5-Piece Cookware Starter Set (Kitchen)
I bought a starter set of Cuisinart Cookware about eight years ago and dumped everything else I had. The cookware heats evenly, even when doing something sensitive like melting chocolate on a range, cooking rice, or popping corn. There are no hot spots and these pans heat up quickly and efficiently. I can touch the bottom to cool water to stop cooking instantly and with no fear of damage. They look smashing and clean up effortlessly in the dishwasher or by hand. My starter set still looks and cooks like new after years of hard use by my entire family. I've added a smaller (1 1/2 qt.) saucepan and a 4 qt. saute pan over the years, but this basic set will do for about anything a cook needs to complete a meal.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Bargin Price Cookware Set Around?, August 16, 2003
By 
Glenn M. Travis (Voorhees, New Jersey United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cuisinart 99-5 Everyday Stainless-Steel 5-Piece Cookware Starter Set (Kitchen)
All right, so I decided to get rid of my non-stick, crapware alum cookware set and get something real. Being an Italian male, cooking is part of my heridge. While surfing the internet, I saw the Cuisiant 5 piece set with the bonus Saute pan. This turns it into a 7 piece set, which after using, I'd describe as a tremendous bargin, and something that should be in every want-to-be-a-chef's kitchen, no matter what cookware you now own.
First off, very little heat is required to really get this set going. I found that high is really medium and most cooking can be done on low medium to low settings.
Second, cleanup is a breeze. As soon as removing food, just add a little water and soap. When cleanup time arrives, foods or stains come right off. If food gets stuck, then just add water and soap, and let it heat up on low heat. Everything vitually wipes off with a sponge. Even easier than non-stick.
Third, there is nothing like food cooked in stainless steel. It's easy to cook a steak or fish on the stovetop without using the oven. And steaks taste spectacular. Stainless steel allows the taste of the food and spices to really come through.
Everything I cook starts with a good virgin olive oil, with garlic and butter being optional. I heat the cookware first, before adding anything.
The real secret to this cookware is really the copper sandwich which allows the bottom to get really, really hot, while keeping the sides and handles cool. Just remember to let this cookware cook the food, and not the stove.
If you've ever pictured yourself on the Food Channel, then you owe it to yourself to give this cookware a try.

5.0 out of 5 stars A set for a lifetime, because I die before giving it up!, August 23, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Cuisinart 99-5 Everyday Stainless-Steel 5-Piece Cookware Starter Set (Kitchen)
I got this set about a year ago after burning the last pan of my T-Fal. I wanted something that was for cooking, darn it! My grandma's pots and pans were stainless so I looked for a good stainless set. THIS IS IT! No more of the 'teflon terrors' for me.

I have them hanging in my kitchen and they look great even though I throw them in the dishwasher, let my husbund cook eggs in them, have left them 'to soak' (sometimes without water).

These pans are a great gift for anyone who cooks--at any level. You will not be disappointed with this set.
