The cookware features a three-layer nonstick system, with heavy-gauge hard-anodized aluminum construction that delivers fast, even heating while eliminating the "hot spots" that burn food.

The pieces include break-resistant glass lids that let cooks observe their foods while cooking. This 11-piece set includes 1-quart, 2-quart, and 3-quart covered saucepans, an 8-quart covered stockpot, a 10-inch French skillet, and a 12-inch, 5-quart covered sauté pan.

Great set, super price!,
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: KitchenAid Gourmet Essentials Hard-Anodized Nonstick 11-Piece Cookware Set (Kitchen)
I received this set today and put it to work right away! Straight out of the box, I was impressed with the professional quality of this cookware. These are sturdy pots and pans with wonderful heavy glass lids that I should never have to replace. I chose this set for five reasons: 1)It had three saucepans, a 10" skillet and a 12" skillet. If you have a large family, this is a must. 2)The hard anodized non-stick coating has a lifetime warranty. 3)Glass lids allow me to monitor what I'm cooking without lifting the lid. 4)KitchenAid brand--the quality speaks for itself. If you don't have a KitchenAid stand mixer, I can't recommend it highly enough. 5) Amazon offers this set at a great price and FREE shipping. Can't beat it.That said--a couple of items worth noting that aren't mentioned in the description: This set is not dishwasher safe, but that really isn't a problem since nothing sticks to it. It cleans up very easily. When storing these pots and pans, place a towel between items to prevent scratching. This is a great set and I look forward to using it for many, many years to come.

Great cookware! Better than Calphalon!,
By P. J. "Neophyte" (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: KitchenAid Gourmet Essentials Hard-Anodized Nonstick 11-Piece Cookware Set (Kitchen)
I never write reviews, but this set has inspired me. It looks great, heats up fast, cooks evenly, and is the best non-stick I've ever used. I've just ordered a second set for my summer home. The set offers an excellent range of cookware. (The only thing I've added is an 8" skillet.) I'm surprised to discover that I don't mind washing it by hand, since it's so easy to wash (one swipe, which I used to have to do before I put my old pots in the dishwasher). The stay-cool rubber handles are great: coolness without looking cheap. The glass lids are also wonderful: nice for seeing what's in the pot and very easy to clean. I used to have Calphalon, and it quickly became discolored, got things permanently stuck to it, began to look terrible (I finally gave it away). I thought seriously about Le Creuset, but finally decided against it (cost, weight, not really non-stick) and am glad I did. Caveat: I'm not an extremely refined cook, so have no idea how well this would perform in very high-end cooking, but I'm *very* happy with it.

This review is from: KitchenAid Gourmet Essentials Hard-Anodized Nonstick 11-Piece Cookware Set (Kitchen)
It's so nice to have cookware that does what it's suppose to do. I've had no probs with it. I love the fact that I can cook 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts at one time in the 12" skillet with absolutely NO sticking, and clean-up is a breeze. I haven't tried it in the oven yet but stovetop cooking with it is a breeze. It cooks rice perfectly which is one of the main reasons I purchased it because I previously had Revere SS cookware that rice stuck to every time. I do recommend only using the silicon heat-resistant tools with this cookware as the SS utensils tend to mark the bottom if you're trying to stir or serve something in them. I can't say enough good things about this cookware. It's absolutely THE BEST set I've ever owned and look forward to years of cooking with it.
