Cook N Home Stainless Steel Cookware Sets 10-Piece, Pots and Pans Kitchen Cooking Set with Stay-Cool Handles, Dishwasher Safe, Silver

I tried each pan for the magnet inductive stove top that I use. Grandson prefers the little one qt bowl, which he heated some canned soup. It did not burn , even though I used a higher heat than normal. I did not need to scrub anything. It has a 10 inch frying pan, 1 qt pot, 2 qt pot, 3 qt kettle, 5 qt kettle. The bottom is very thick for even cooking. I have not seen a higher quality cookware that would compare. The sizes are for small family cooking. A bigger frying pan might be nice. But I have one. I am very pleased with the quality of cookware & the quick shipment, UPS was running day & night this week, possibly back logged, but I got mine fast. I love My Duxtop magnetic inductive stoves, no raging heat burning me, the energy savings is applied to faster cooking, but once the water boils, you can reduce the cooking temperature to #1. Water boils at 212 deg, at Altitude of 2000 feet, 208 degrees. No matter how much more heat you can add to it, the water will not get any hotter, it will just boil over. In that case, you would need a pressure cooker, but warn me when you cook, I need time to run. I saw a 12 piece set without insulated handles, but I got a good bargain, even if the insulated handles are not necessary on a magnetic induction stove.I tried porcelain steel pots, they are good, but if you overheat, the porcelain will crack & chip, I have a regular steel pan, it is great for frying, but it rusts faster than cast iron. Cast iron is good, but very heavy, it takes time to heat up, but great for people that cook on high. So CooknHome has won my heart, it is light enough to warm up quickly, with even heat, easy to clean, & the stainless is thick enough, you do not need to worry about wearing out the finish. I use the magnetic inductive stove tops, for safety & Efficiency. They will not set grease on fire, grease burns at 500 deg, the stove shuts down at 400 deg. I can cook eggs at 300 watts, I can boil water at 1500 watts, & none of the heat comes around the pan to burn my arms. If I make a mess while cooking, I can lift the pot & wipe it off, nothing can get caught below the cooking pot. The stove top only gets as hot as the pan warming it.

Disclaimer: I hv not cooked in these yet & I will add to my review when/ if I do.Heres what I notice:Well packaged. Glass lids fit well.Needs preheating before food is added. Has an anti stick coating over the stainless. Medium weight with a nicely weighted bottom. Warnings of not to allow to cook dry, or use heat above medium. No abrasive cleaners. If you have a family of over 4, this is not the set for you--too small. Attractive set. Warning about always use a mitt when handling hot.So, that makes me wonder about the reliability of the stay cool handles. Maybe just protecting themselves. This is an attractive set. And if you, as I do, have hand arthritis, it is easier to maneuver than the typical large, heavy set.Update after 5 weeks of steady use:I really like this set. It can be handwashed but actually comes gleaming from the dishwasher--they recommend hand wash, maybe it has to do with the nonstick capability of the finish? No rough or sharp edges. Handles do not overheat for me. I do recommend that you keep stove temp at medium and preheat w oil.They are not fussy or high maintenance. I don't want high maintenance cookware. Life is hard enough without my cookware needing lots of special care. I find I can serve a family of 6 from the set ( 3 adults, 3 kids). I appreciate how lightweight they are while Maintaining a weighted, sturdy bottom. I use them on a glass cook top. Just don't scrape them across. I think this set is giftable & easy care. The short, curved handles are a big plus for my arthritic hands

I wish I could put more than 5 stars. These are the kind of pans I have been looking for, for a veryyyy long time. I don't do nonstick pans for safety reasons. I only use stainless steel and have used cusinart tri ply pans as well as farberware. I did not like the cuisinart ones, the farberware were a better choice until I found these. They are perfect, I could not ask for anything more to make them so. I love the lids that sit down inside the pot, the cuisinarts lids sit on top so things can overflow and when you take them off, things splatter at you. The farberware sits down inside but not even as well as these. Now the farberware doesnt have glass lids, these do as well as a hole in the lid to let steam escape, neither the farberware or the cuisnart have that either. Also, these have silicone handles and on the lids, neither of the other two have that as well. These pans are pretty much nonstick even though they don't have that coating and are stainless steel, I made rice in one of the pans first thing and nothing stuck.. They clean up and shine up like brand new. I can't really believe how lucky I am with these to find a perfect pan set. The price is unbelieveable for what you get as well. Only downfall of course is they are made in china but then everything is I guess. I have been cooking for over 45 years and I love these pans. I think you could not go wrong in my view.
