5.0 out of 5 stars All-Clad for 1/3 the price, November 19, 2009

These pans are branded All-Clad pans (look at the bottoms). They cook evenly with no hot-spots. Even a novice cook like myself gets MUCH better results than with a cheap low quality pan.

I've had the 10 piece set for two years. They hold up great!

I received this 10-piece set as a Christmas gift, so I have only been using them for a couple weeks. I was just looking for a couple select pots/pans for Christmas, but you can't beat the price of the whole set. Initially, I loved the fact that the two small sauce pots have pour spouts and built-in strainers in the lids. Also, I'm a fan of hard-anodized cookware.

The set stores nicely - I stack the pots together, starting with the 3-quart saute pan, and the frying pans together. The lids I have to store by themselves.

Keep in mind that these are non-stick pans, and you can not use metal utensils with them. The inner surface seemed like it would scratch easily, but it's pretty durable. At first I wasn't sure how they would hold up to high heat, or even cooking, since they are thinner than my Calphalon hard-anodized pans, but they do a great job. Clean-up is a cinch - nothing sticks! I even made apples with caramel sauce, and the caramelized, sugary syrup cleaned up ever-too-easily. Which leads to another thing - if you are looking to create "browned bits" on the bottom of your pans, which I love for creating sauces, don't look to these pans - seriously, nothing sticks! They definitely are great at what they are - non-stick!

The only downside I have found so far, which is old news to me, is that the metal handles do not stay cool. The frying pan and sauce pots have long handles, which tend to stay cooler towards the end, but watch out when you go to lift a lid.

If you're looking for a nice, non-stick, durable quality cookware set, I recommend these pans. They're great for the value, and come with a life-time warranty.

UPDATE (SEPT 4, 2011):

I've now owned this set for 2 years come this Dec, and they are holding up great :) Plus, I love the ease of draining pasta without having to dirty a separate colander!

This review is from: Emeril Hard Anodized Nonstick 10-Piece Cookware Set (Kitchen)

We bought this set about 10-11 years ago. We loved it!!!! Then about four or five years after we got them, the non-stick coating started breaking down on the large skillet and large pot. The company was great about sending us new ones. But now it is four or five years later and those same pieces (the ones we use the most) are breaking down again. We are very careful in how we handle this cookware; there are no scratches in the finish and we only handwash them. It just seems like they have a limited lifespan. Now we're debating whether to try and get them replaced again or purchase something else.
