3.0 out of 5 stars Waterless cookware, May 2, 2005

I love to cook with the cookware however the lids have a valve that quickly falls apart and does not hold up to normal use. The lid then does not hold the pressure in on the foods being cooked which allows the moisture to escape (these are the food moistures that would have cooked the food).

The product is quite amazing. You will taste vegetables like it's the first time you've ever tasted them! And other meats,fish & chicken area great! The cleanup is a little hard to say. To get it pretty clean is not that hard,but to get it spotless takes a little more work. A solution of apple cider vinegar works very well.
The paperwork however has a little to be desired. For example the directions & cooking tips seem to have a little lost in the language translation or are just vague at times. Also the warranty process is frankly quite shocking,it states to send in the product to a P.O. box in Texas with a check presumably blank to pay for return shipping & handling. Also there was no number to contact the company to find out about this process or if one would like to purchase additions items or handles since they are not covered at all. But from what I can tell one shouldn't have any problems with the exception of the handles if you burn them or maybe the valves which is also the handle on the lids so be careful of that. All in all it's definitely worth it!

If you want to buy this cookware from Amazon, be aware that the price fluctuates wildly. When I started shopping for this cookware, I saw it priced at Amazon in the $300's. Some time later, the price went down to the $190's. Then it went up again to the high $200's. Finally, I bought the set on 9/12/08 for $181.52. A week later, the price dropped to $155.73. I was able to get a price match. Today, as I am writing this review, the price is at $348.30.

I like the cookware. Everything feels high quality except for the lid knobs. I can't understand why they would put such cheap feeling lid knobs on what otherwise is an excellent cookware set. Except for these knobs, it has the same feel as the $2000 sets that you see at country fairs. But considering the price I paid for it and free shipping, the cookware is a very good value.

My wife likes cooking vegetables with it. It's easier and quicker than having to boil water. The cookware does stain or suffer some discoloration on the inside after some use. Also, try not to burn food in it. It's not nearly as easy to clean as those non-stick teflon sets.
