I had a bunch of hand-me-down pots before purchasing this item and these pots and pans make cooking less of a chore for me. Nothing sticks to these pans and I don't burn things anymore! I was relieved it was my old worn out pots and not my lack of cooking skill charring things.

I wouldn't agree that the pot handles stay cool all the time. There have been a few instances that I've had to grab a pot holder to remove the pan from heat. Perhaps I'm just a sissy.

Washing by hand is sort of a downer but since nothing sticks to em, it's really not that huge a deal to clean em up.

We're very pleased with this purchase and would recommend to others. I'm actually on Amazon now looking for matching pieces to add to my set. :)

This set is great. I can't believe how easily they clean. They are nice and flat and work well with flat stoves, electric burners, or gas. I do suggest reading the instructions. They state how to clean, what temp they are good for, etc... Follow these instructions and the set should last for a very long time.

I purchased these pans to replace my older models. I like the handles and weight of the pans. I do prefer the clear lids which these don't have. But for the price, it's a fantastic deal for a Kitchen Aid product.

These pans are wonderful!!! Clean up is a breeze but I would only hand wash.They are a perfect color. Very sturdy but not bulky, just the right sizes for all your cooking needs. Definitely worth the money. Would recommend these pans to everyone who wants a nice set of pans without spending a fortune.

I love these pots. I purchased a red set about two, three years ago, and I liked them so much I bought this blue set as a gift. I cook lots of different types of foods in them and love the results. I like the weight, not too light that they may tip, not too heavy that my wrists would suffer, and the price is just right.

These are a great set of pots and pans at a very affordable price.
They look nice....have a nice comfortable grip that doesn't get hot ...not real heavy, cook well and clean well.

Very Very pleased!!

I love this cookware! It is cooks food faster and with less burning/sticking than my former cookware set. It is easy to clean and the silicone handles really do stay cool to the touch. And to top it all off, it is a beautiful shade of blue! I have two small complaints: there are lots of lids-I'm used to one lid fitting multiple pots and pans, and they can not go in the dishwasher.

I bought this set of pots and pans because I know Kitchenaid has a good reputation. I have been very pleased with the set...looks great, proper weight, cleans up in a flash and overall a great set of pots and pans. I wish it came with a steamer/double boiler insert, my only negative. Great price for quality goods.

I spent almost a year searching for a new set of quality, cobalt-blue cookware. I finally settled on this set two months ago and have been very pleased thus far. The only drawback I've noticed is the steel lids: glass would have been nicer.

Kitchenaid Gourmet Essentials Hard Base 12 Piece Cookware Set....Holds heat and very non-stick. THey work great
