CUISINART77-10P1 10-Piece Chef's-Classic-Stainless Collection, Cookware Set

La bateria de cocina esta muy bien, es de acero y cumple su funcion

I've purchased two sets about six months ago and had a chance to use every piece. I have to say that this set is a bargain, but noticed that Cuisinart Multiclad Pro is what I would prefer over this set (if money was no object). I've purchased the Multiclad Pro 3 qt saucepan and the 5-1/2 qt pan to compliment this set, and love the true triple ply and heavier gauge sides which prevents scorching. Can't compare this set to the Cuisinart Multiclad Pro set that cost two to three times as much (or All-Clad)...and I'm quite happy that I have purchased this set!As for the 10-piece set, I agree with the high praise from many already posted. This is a very good set for a resonable price. Would it last a lifetime? Probably not but I will get good use out of it for at least ten years. Sides of pan are a bit thin and will flex slightly (compared to the Multiclad models). If the pan fell from my hanging rack, it would probably dent. You can hang the pots with lids on, though one would have to be careful not to knock them off. One of the lids came off and hit the countertop then the floor, but survived the fall without any damage. My favorite is the 3 qt saucepan and the 3-1/2 qt saute.Cameo or Bar Keepers Friend does a good job of cleaning up residue that can't be cleaned up with standard dish washing soap or in the dishwasher. I have some pitting on the interior of pan from throwing salt from soft-boiling eggs or pasta. Pitting does not impact the performance, but a bit ugly looking (doesn't bother me as this set was inexpensive and I've purchased to use everyday). I've done a comparison between the 3 qt provided in this set compared to the Multiclad 3 qt. I was surprised that using same amount of water an at same size gas burners with switching the pans every minute to ensure even heating, Chef's Classic boiled water quicker than the Multiclad by at least a minute (I'm a professional engineer and a bit quirky that way).I've also purchased the anodized non-stick pans by Cuisinart and been using the glass lids from that set on the Chef's Classic. Since purchasing the stainless set, my non-stick pans are in storage and though they are fairly new, teflon started coming off from the top of the cookware where lid meets the pan. I realize the professionals use metal lids as it keeps in the heat better and easier to clean, but I do like to see what's going on inside the cookware when I'm cooking. I'm starting to get used to the metal lids. This set has also retired my Lodge cast iron cookware to use only on the grill, as the stainless base heat retention is great and much easier to clean and maintain.I would highly recommend this set to anyone who wants a long lasting cookware, likes to use metal utensils with their cookware as long as they don't mind superficial scratches(instruction manual states that non-metallic utensils be used), enjoys developing fond (brown bits) for making tasty sauces, or simply wants a cookware that one can abuse without having to worry about ingesting Teflon, this set would be very satisfactory. If you want the absolute best and spend considerable time in the kitchen, spend more for the Cuisinart Multiclad or All-Clad and don't complain about the little details. For most everyone else out there, this set would be quite adequate. Happy cooking!Other Info: As for interchangeability with Cuisinart Multiclad line, 3-qt line has different size lids as Multiclas line has deeper Saute pans. Frying pans are the same size. Pam or similar cooking spray should be avoided as they will bake on to the pans and will be difficult to remove. I've started to cook eggs on real butter mixed with olive oil. Wow! Eggs are so much better than cooked on the non-stick skillet with spray oil. Everything in moderation, but I've been learning to live a little and exercise more to make up.

I did a lot of research before I purchased these pans. I've never owned a stainless steel set before. My other pans are either cast iron or non-stick. While researching cookware, this set came up a lot in the top 5 cookware sets to purchase. I have used them every day since I purchased them and love them! It took a bit to adjust to them because they are a little bit different than the pans I've been using. But I took the time to read the care and use instructions, which has made the transition a little easier.For the newbies who are considering their first set, these take a lot less heat than you would used with cast or even non-stick. Also, when you're frying, the food will stick at first...leave it alone. After it browns, it releases on it's own without leaving stuck pieces behind. As for cleaning, I found that the Cuisinart instructions were spot on. They suggest that as soon as you're done using the pan to fill it will hot, soapy water and let it sit for 15 minutes before cleaning. I fried chicken breast the other day, I did exactly as they suggested and the pan washed clean with no scrubbing needed. I've boiled, fried, sauteed and made sauces and so far they've preformed beautifully and they are still just as sparkly as the day I got them. I just make sure I dry them with a clean towel as soon as I'm done washing them and they're staying pristine...so far. Plus, I use propane, the reduced heat needed is definitely going to save me on propane! The only issue I've had is when I made the orange sauce for orange chicken...that took a little more than a 15 minute soak to get all of the sauce off the pan. But I just heated the pan with the soapy water in it and all the sauce residue came up. *Added note: Tonight I fried up chicken breast and after I washed the frying pan, I noticed it had cloudy white stains in the pan. I tried washing it again and the stains were still there. But then I remembered that the Cuisinart instructions had mentioned this and stated that if it occurred to use white vinegar on the stains. So, I whipped out the white vinegar and poured about a tablespoons worth in the pan, wiped it around in the bottom of the pan and rinsed. The stains are gone and the pan still looks new!Also, while the handles are also stainless steel, so far I've not had an issue with the handles getting too hot to handle. The lids sit on the pan beautifully, with no gaps. And the pans only need seconds to preheat. I've got a baker's rack that all the pans sit on with their lids, so there is no need to stack them and possibly scratch them. So, far these have been worth the time and money I've invested.Now as for my experience with Amazon...I purchased these as a birthday gift for myself. I originally ordered them on October 12th and they were shipped on October 13 with the free Super Saving Shipping. On October 24th I still hadn't received them and according to the tracking they'd been sitting in the Cincinnati post office for over a week. I called Amazon and told them about the issue, but because of shipping rules they couldn't help until the 27th. I was a little annoyed, but the 27th was only 4 days away. The very next day I had 2 emails from Amazon in my inbox. The first stated that my package had been returned to Amazon because it was un-deliverable and the second stated that all of my money had been refunded. I was extremely irked. I called Amazon immediately and got an extremely kind and understanding customer service rep. She walked me through repurchasing the cookware and gave me free overnight shipping. Then 5 minutes after getting off the phone, I had an email with an apology from Amazon. They'd also reduced the cost of the cookware & given me a small credit to use toward future purchases. I was so surprised. I was okay with the free overnight shipping, but I was thrilled with the reduced cost & credit. Even though it looks like the screw up was most likely completely postal related, Amazon really stepped up to make sure I walked away happy with my experience. Thank you Amazon for understanding that customer service is sometimes more important than price.
