So I bought this set after literally 2 weeks of investigating SS cookware, reading reviews, warranties, etc. I was hesitant to buy because I have been using a Wolfgang Puck set for over 15 years. It's still a very functional set and has held up well but I wanted new! Compared to Cuisinart, T-Fal, Cook's Choice, and others, this is superior. Anyway, the reviews on this set mention water spots, discoloration, sticking. Okay people, that is an EXPECTED outcome when you cook with SS. First of all, know how to clean it- with Bar Keeper's Friend, which is cheap and a little goes a long way! It will keep the SS shiny and like new! Also, if you run the pan under water while it is hot it will deglaze any leftover food making cleaning a snap! Second, the impact bonding is done VERY well...the cook is even and does not burn for me- no hotspots! Third (and the most important), this is not a non-stick set! SS cookware, unless you specifically buy with a non-stick interior, it is going to stick to some degree. BUT, you have to know how to cook with it and be a nimble chef who is aware of the needs of SS pots and pans. You can't crank up the heat and use butter. It will burn and so will the eggs. I use the organic canola oil spray or butter but I put it on a low heat and let it come up to temp. I have made fried eggs in these pans at least 4 times so far and I have no issue. If you use olive oil, it burns easy so that is another consideration. So, in the end, I am 100% happy with this set and I can tell you this is not a set for the weak! It's a heavy, well made in the USA set that is worth the $$.
