I love this set, it has everything you need for a family. This is my second set in my lifetime. The first is still as good as new but my father-in-law needed more pots and I gave it to him. The heat is evenly distributed in these pots & they don't wobble. They are very easy to clean.

These are pretty standard Farberware pots and pans. The set is thorough, you get pretty much everything you could need. Stock pots and sauce pots and frying pans - and all for an awesome price.

These aren't fancy, the handles are plastic, but as I can tell you from havin owned a different pot from Farberware for over 20 years with the same handle, they're made to last. These pots aren't going anywhere. They hold up in the dishwasher (NOT THE frying pans, ONLY the pots) and even though they're not all teflon coated, food doesn't really stick to them.

My only real complaint is that Farberware decided to "update" something that worked for a long time. These are a new take on their standard Classic pots and pans - they have glass lids and are slightly bell-shaped. The bell shape makes it a little harder to clean (the big stock pot especially) because you have to scrub along the contour. I also liked the old metal lids better, but these do just fine. If the price on the non-bell shaped ones had been the same as the price on these with as many pans, I would have gotten it instead of this one. Regardless, I'm entirely satisfied with these pots and pans and would buy the set again if I needed more pots and pans.

When our wedding-register set finally gave in (after 12 years), we had one stainless steel Farberware piece (a pass-on from Mom) and I knew that that is what I wanted for everything. The 12-piece Classic fit our needs the most and what a bargain!!!! Love the curled lip--keeps liquids from running down sides after pouring off--to the see-through lids (first-timers)! Even heating and easy clean-up. Would recommend that you just stop looking around now and purchase.

This is a very nice set of pots and pans. I've had them for about a month now and am very happy with the purchase. They are sturdy and include various pot sizes.

This cookware set is well constructed and has so many pieces that it will serve all my cooking needs.

The 12 piece Farbarware cookware set is exactly as pictured, and I am very pleased with this purchase.

This was a great bargain. These pots are wonderful. Easy to keep clean and non stick in the coated ones. I would definitely purchase this bargain again.

Very good weight... Seems to have even cooking, though I have only had the set for two weeks.
Quality seems very good.

I recently purchased these to replace a set of Teflon-coated pans that had pitted. I chose these because of the lower price and the reviews. I am severly disappointed with them. The handles are very cheap and after only a month some of them are loose and feel like they are going to break at any moment. 2 of the saucepans are pitted and have funny spots on the bottom even though they have only been used for normal cooking. If I had it to do over again I would not waste the money on these. Save up and buy yourself a better set!!
