Amazon.com Review: This trusted name in kitchen appliances carries its renowned design and construction expertise into this Chef's Classic 12-piece cookware set. Classically styled for any kitchen décor, each piece is crafted of 18/10 stainless steel, with an encapsulated aluminum base for quick, even heating without hotspots. The mirror finish never reacts with food or discolors, and maintains its shine even after repeated dishwasher-cleaning. Even the handles and lids are solid stainless steel for the utmost in durability.
Included in this set are three lidded saucepans, holding 1-1/2, 2, and 3 quarts, all sizes you'll reach for everyday for such tasks as cooking soup, rice, or macaroni-and-cheese. The 8-inch and 10-inch skillets are ideal for frying and sautéing, whether onions and mushrooms, omelets, pancakes, hamburgers, or fish. Braise meat dishes in the sauté pan, which lifts with the aid of a helper handle; and fill the 8-quart stockpot with chili, corn-on-the-cob, artichokes, or pasta. Each piece is oven-safe up to 550 degrees F, so you can start a dish on the stovetop and finish it in the oven or under the broiler. You can freeze foods in these durable pans, too. Dishwasher-safe, the set makes a superb gift and is covered by a lifetime warranty against manufacturer's defects. --Ann Bieri

Rating: - great set for anyone
I took up gourmet cooking as a hobby over 2 years ago and have become quite good at "amateur" gourmet cooking. My old set of cookware was very old and inadequate at times so I looked for a new set and specifically was looking for stainless steel b/c I have noticed that most of the good TV chefs use it frequently. I love this set, especially for the price. It cooks very well, is relatively easy to clean and looks great.

Got a good deal!! Have been researching stainless and was finally convinced this set was the one to buy after a friend brought soup in his soup pot.
Rating: - Cuisinart's 12 Piece Cookware Set
We recieved the product and were very pleased with its overall construction and appearance. It cooks evenly and cleanup is very easy. We have know regrets on purchasing this cookware set. For the price it can't be beat.
Rating: - In a word - awesome
This set is amazing, especially for the price. The size of the pots are great for the beginner cook but are still more than enough for the more advanced. Good heat conduction (watch how high you put your burners) and performance while still looking great. My sister is a foodie and she's drooling over them...
Rating: - Love these pans!
I decided to dump all my nonstick cookware, and after lots of research, settled on this set. I was a bit concerned about sticking food and cleanup, but haven't had a problem at all. These pans are lighter weight than I am used to, but I like that. Makes them much easier to handle. I highly recommend this set!
