5.0 out of 5 stars
Feels like a deal, May 22, 2009
This review is from: NapaStyle Stainless Steel with Copper Bottom 10-Piece Set with Silicone Handle (71063) (Kitchen)
I bought these as a gift for my wife. I was hesitant about the quality, but gave them a try for the price, the items in the set, and the copper bottoms. My wife likes them a lot. There are a few issues you should know about before buying these: 1) the copper bottoms have a film that must be dissolved with a baking soda solution before you first use them, 2) the metal has discolored on the inside of the pots/pans, but it is no worse than some super expensive All-clad copper core pans I also bought the wife, 3) the pans are very easy to clean up, 4) my wife says she loves how evenly they heat up and cook (due to the copper bottom, I assume), and 5) my wife likes the padded handles. This is a substantial cookware set; get it - I don't think you will go wrong for this price.

Better than AllClad, and Recession Friendly, April 10, 2009
This review is from: NapaStyle Stainless Steel with Copper Bottom 10-Piece Set with Silicone Handle (71063) (Kitchen)
First off these were dirt cheap. I would have been understanding if the quality was sub-par because of the price, but I was really surprise that these pans are really high quality. They have a good weight to them, and respond to changes in heat really fast. The handles have saved me a few times from burning my hand, and they are really comfortable to hold.
I originally bought these because I needed some replacement pans for some AllClad pots that got lost in a move. I was really sad that I couldn't afford to replace the AllClad with more AllClad. Now I'm really glad I couldn't afford the AllClad because I almost only use the NapaStyle now. The AllClad I have left, just sit in my cabinets now. NapaStyle is awesome.
Don't hesitate because you haven't heard of them. They are awesome.

fabulous pots for the $, September 16, 2009
This review is from: NapaStyle Stainless Steel with Copper Bottom 10-Piece Set with Silicone Handle (71063) (Kitchen)
I was visiting my daughter-in-law and noticed these pots and wondered why her pots were better than mine! I ordered them on my return. the price was very reasonable for the quality received.
The handles on these pots will never unscrew and they are sturdy and ergonomically shaped, very nice.
NOTHING BURNS like my old copper lined pots (not as heavy as these). The heat spreads evenly and things that really could make a mess (running out of water when making wheat berries) just seem to be less of a disaster than my old pots.
They are good sizes. THe smallest one is a little big - but somehow it works for small things. And the 3 sizes are useful.
So go for it ;-)
