Product Description: KitchenAid's 5-Ply Stainless Steel 9-piece Cookware Set includes: 2-qt. Saucepan with Lid, 3-qt. Saucepan with Lid, 8-qt. Stockpot with Lid, 5-qt. Saute Pan with Lid, 10-in. Skillet. KitchenAid's Stainless Steel Clad Cookware is made of the finest materials available and is the ultimate in stainless steel cookware. Each piece has a five-ply metal body - an 18/10 stainless steel inside and out with a 3-layer aluminum core that assures even heating through and through. The long stainless steel handle is riveted to the pan and is heat resistant on the stovetop, and the deep-fitting, stainless steel lid is polished both inside and out.
Amazon.com Review: This has to be one of the flashiest cookware sets on the market. The highly polished stainless steel is mirrorlike. The 9-piece set includes a 2-quart saucepan with cover, 3-quart saucepan with cover, 8-quart covered stockpot, 10-inch skillet, and 5-quart covered sauté pan with extra "helper" handle. Each piece is made from a five-ply construction, which fuses an aluminum core between layers of stainless steel. The result is wonderful heat transference across the bottom and up the sides. Bottoms are permanently stamped with size and capacity. Special deep-draw lids ensure a tighter seal and minimize rattling. Each handle is individually cast of stainless steel, designed to accommodate large hands, and secured with polished stainless-steel rivets. They're also comfortably curved, stay cool to the touch on the stovetop, and are oven-safe up to 500 degrees F. Hand washing is recommended, with a nonabrasive sponge--you won't want to mar the gleaming finish of these pieces. --Matthew Evans

Rating: - Very good product for its price
I have been using this set for past few days (ordered when price went down to $209). Just to mention I'm using this cookware on smooth ceramic top electric stove.
- 2QT Saucepan is outperforming my expectations. I have a farberware millenium bottom encapsulated set, and there's a difference. I have been using saucepan to boil milk and make lentil curries etc, no sticking and cleans up like a breeze.
- 10" skillet - heats up faster, cooks evenly. Only think I didn't like about this one is the color goes brown (as if some oxidation has occured) in the bottom surface if you delay adding ... Read More

Mine just arrived, paid $209 with free shipping. Can't beat the price, quality is so much better than anything else you can get within the sub-$500 range. After working on a budget and looking at my choices, I was really happy that this deal came around. I don't know if it's better quality than All-Clad, but I couldn't find an All-Clad set for this price anywhere. Quality cookware typically has a little bit of a heft to it, but if you are weak-wristed and cook a lot, I'd look elsewhere for your set as they do take a little effort to handle.
I predict that this set will last a long ... Read More
Rating: - The perfect cookware set
Buying a cookware set from the internet is a tough decision! I personally want to touch the pots, feel them, weight them.Unfortunatelly at the local stores i could only find some way too expensive sets (All Clad) and some cheap but...So after a lot of search i decided to trust the customer reviews for this set (plus the free shipping from Amazon.com). I am so happy i did it. The pots have the right weight - not too light, not too heavy - and the right size for someone who cooks every single day for a family of 4!! I'm not gonna argue about stainless-steel because anyone who cooks a lot knows better.As ... Read More
Rating: - Great Set at a Great Price
When we got our new Jenn-Air range, with glass-ceramic cooking surface, we found out that our old MagnaLite pots and pans just weren't flat enough. After some research we decided to try this set out. We are more than happy with them and they work great with the glass top.

I bought my daughter a set of 5ply stainless steel pots for her bridal shower two years ago. My son is getting married and his fiance loved them and wanted them also. I couldn't find them anywhere for a reasonable price. I finally found them at amazon for an amazing price and bought them. They maintain the heat and cook so even its unbelievable. And you never have to cook on high. I would recommend this cookware to everyone.
