These pots are excellent quality! I love that they are waterless! I love the temperature gauge lid handle! I love that they require little oil! I love that they are NOT made in China! I love that they are so easy to clean! I love this set!!! I wish that they were available in various size skillets!I took a risk on this product because of the maker. I was blown away buy the quality of the cookware. It is heavy, well made and beautiful. Way beyond expectations. I also bought some Cuisinart sauce pans because I never have enough sauce pans and a set always comes with the same pieces I don't need. Although the Cuisinart was well made, this set is several buts above. However I will keep the Cuisinart because I need the extra sauce pans. I will use all of this cookware. The Pros are the 7 layers of heat induction on the bottom. There are usable pieces here that work well together. There is a strainer that goes in the 3 quart pan. The picture shows a lid on the pan and the strainer but there is only one lid (which makes sense). This is also waterless cookware. I don't know much about waterless cookware but I have never seen a set for under $1000 so I never tried it. For the cookware alone, I would give it a 5. The negative side is around 4 of the parts. There are two trivets, and some handle with a suction cup. I have no idea what to do with these as the trivets are much too small to be of any use. I think the handle is meant to stick to the bottom of the mixing bowl so it can be used as a lid. Why, I don't know but that is the only thing I can think of. The strainer basket comes with a separate handle so the wire handle is considered part of the count. Next, the handles have plastic under them to make them cooler to the touch. There is a warning not to turn the flame up too high or they will melt. Yes they will because my husband turns the gas burners up too high and burned the handles on a similar pot I used to have. The knobs on all of the lids have temperature gauges built in. I have not had good luck with these kinds of lids in the past so for that reason (and the plastic under the handles) is why I am rating this a 4 out of 5. I get the impression there should have been a recipe book but an instruction guide would have really been nice. I have NEVER used waterless cookware so I am nor sure how to use this. Regardless, it meets my needs. Overall, I would value this set at closer to $1000 for the 15 parts I will use. You will not regret picking up this cookware!I purchased this set in September of 2015. These pans are used heavily everyday for the past 5 years. We are a family of 7 and within the past 6 months certain parts are coming undone. The handle for the lids have broken off of 3 out of 5, the plastic has loosened on 3 pots and a little rusting on the screws that connect the plastic to the handles. The actual pot has zero rusting after all of the abuse.I gave it 4 stars because of the design flaws. The plastic is pointless. Just make it a metal handle and people can use pot holders. That’s what I do anyways. Most of the time they don’t get that hot if used correctly! The other flaw is the top knob that houses the temperature gauge. I like the idea, but the knob is not sturdy enough. It would be nice to see a different style handle with the gauge, like one going over top. Think rainbow style.Overall a very good set, especially for just starting out! A nice wedding gift or new home gift. The price is well worth to dealing with the potential problems that may occur down the road.This is a really nice set for the money. I gave it three stars because after 2 years of use, the handles on the lids that has the dial in them cracked and came apart due to washing them in the dishwasher. They need to remedy that.I bought this set for an induction stove that I had gotten. Some people think the induction stove “sings” b/c a high pitch is heard when you turn the burner on - but it isn’t the stove - it’s the cookware. ALL induction cookware does it till it gets heated up, then it stops. It only lasts for a few minutes and it isn’t loud and doesn’t hurt your ears or anything. Some people find it annoying, I guess - but I don’t. The pots and skillets have held up EXCELLENTLY! The lids have to - just not the knobs on the top of the lids. ?*UPDATE: We've had these for three years now, and they all still function well. The temperature gauges have cracked and don't function on most of them by this point, and that is with hand washing only. They've otherwise held up well. We are now a family of 4, and realizing that the pan sizes really have limitations, especially the skillet. I do love the steamer though, and use it a lot to make fruits and veggies for baby food. I'd still recommend it, BUT you might want to buy some larger skillets depending on your family size.We were pretty much sold on this set because they were made in Switzerland. I do like that there is a temperature gauge on the lids as well, it is a nice feature. They nest pretty well for in-cupboard storage and definitely are not "cheap." I like these a lot.That being said, I have two complaints:1) When washing these, your finger can get momentarily stuck between the handle and slightly sharp edge.2) The skillet base is made with these little bumps - not great for cleaning, and some things just don't cook up nicely in them.Overall, for the price it is a great deal and worth it.El producto no es de la marca indicada y tampoco las capacidades son como indica la publicación, son menores.Casserole de 6.3 L llegó de 5.0 L, casserole de 3.1 L llegó de 2.5 L, casserole de 1.6 L llegó de 1.25 L, fry pan de 2.9 L llegó de 2.0 L y sauce pan de 1.8 L llegó de 1.25 L
