T-fal Initiatives Nonstick Cookware Set 18 Piece, Oven Broiler Safe 350F, Kitchen Cooking Set w/Fry Pans, Saucepans, Saute Pan, Dutch Oven, Griddle, Pots and Pans, Home, Dishwasher Safe, Red

Keep in mind, I've only just received this cookware, but this is my opinion so far. Every piece is sturdy, perfectly made, not a mark on any one pot/pan. The finish is very nice - I bought the red/orange color since it was about $50 less and the actual color even nicer than the photos. Everything is non-stick, so as long as no one uses anything metal on the cookware, everything should last for a long time. I saw review issues with loose handles; all of my handles are very tight and perfectly aligned. I love that every pot lid has a steam vent. I used the square flat pan and as long as cold water is not applied to the hot pan, it shouldn't warp and it didn't. Love that every pot has a measurement bar on the inside. Frankly, I am impressed so far and we're glad we purchased the set.

The best set of cookware I've owned. I'm not sure how much that's saying since I had the same set since I graduated college in 2009 but I love these! Cooked in them for the first time tonight and nothing stuck, cleanup was a breeze and it just felt good having such good looking cookware! I'm happy with this so far and if this hold up, I'll look to add to my set.

I'm doing an initial review of this cookware set. As it's being used, my intention is to come back to this review with updates. I ordered this set after doing a bit of 'googling' on what is the best cookware set for 2019 - I wanted something for our gas range. I think it's something to take into consideration when choosing what you're going to buy. An example - on a gas range - if the setting is high and your cookware has some sort of enamel-like finish, and the flames are coming over the sides of the pot/pan - it's going to discolor the finish after a period of time. I looked at the top 10 bracket, the top 5 bracket, I went to reviews, Good Housekeeping, Consumer Reports, just to name two of several, and surprisingly (at least for me) T-Fal was a set that kept popping up as one of the best. I've always thought of T-Fal as one of those starter cookware sets that someone might purchase when they're moving into their first apartment and starting out on their own - it is/was inexpensive - a set for a person learning to cook and therefore not requiring something more 'higher-end.' If you have/had those thoughts as well, you might want to set them aside, at least with this set.. Upon pulling everything out of the box my first impression was they look really nice. The set is light weight - the handles are riveted, silicone encased and can withstand up to 400 degree oven temperature. The lids are heavy tempered glass, each one having a small vent hole, and the handles are also silicone encased as well. The design of the lid-handles seems to take into account the use of pot holders since there's substantial space between the glass and the handle itself. All of the lids in my set fit nicely onto their respective pot/pan - no warpage or bent rims. The pots/pans are dishwasher safe (mine aren't going to see the inside of a dishwasher), and this particular set you can use metal utensils (I personally ain't-a-gonna do it). It comes with a steamer that is designed to stack on top of the large pot (not the dutch oven). When you're done steaming, grab some pot holders and lift the insert out by it's handles - no muss, no fuss. It's a much better option than the collapsible steamer I currently using. It comes with instructions on how to care for your cookware. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS! Why you may ask? This set is replacing a Calphalon set, and yes Calphalon was/is rated highly as well. But why replace it? Because being the knuckle head that I am, I didn't read the instructions. I knew Calphalon had to be hand washed (at least the set that I own) - but what I didn't know was what high heat does to the pots. When you read the instructions for T-Fal, and because it's aluminum, it'll say something to the effect of using low to medium heat (because aluminum conducts heat really well). See … I didn't know that about anodized aluminum and what I ended up doing was burning the finish off of each pot and skillet bottom of my Calphalon set - right down to the bare aluminum and of course this affected the non-stick surface on the inside. So please, read and follow the instructions. One other thing before I wrap this up. When I was doing my 'research' I came across this one video of an owner showing how an empty T-Fal pot didn't sit level on her stove. Seems the handle was heavy enough that it caused the pot to tip. She said this was a problem - and I guess it could be if you're in the process of putting something inside the pot in preparation of cooking. I do get that - but I placed an empty pot on the stove, centered over the burner, and it sat just fine - although I'll say my stove grate is different than the stove in the video - it also sat level on the counter top. Perhaps this might be something to take into consideration??? So initial impression is the set seems to be of good quality, looks nice, and I'm looking forward to putting this set through it's paces. UPDATE: As of December 4, 2019 I have to say that the T-Fal set has held up extremely well - cooking with this set is a breeze. I keep the burner setting usually at med-high if I want to bring something to a boil - and it doesn't take long for that to happen. The pots and pans conduct heat really well and there's practically no sticking. Usually I can pretty-much rinse off any food residue left behind using just running hot water. I'm pretty good at using either wooden or silicon-type utensils when cooking, though on occasion I've used metal spoons to stir, and there are no marks inside any of the pots/pans. I'm not one of those cooks adept enough to shift a pan around and flip the contents briefly into the air (my cool-factor is not that high) so "skating" the bottom of a pot/pan over the cast-iron grate has not taken place, so I can't say what would happen to this set if I were to do so. If I were to hazard a guess, I would say that more than likely there would be some marring of the bottom since cast iron probably trumps aluminum. Overall I'm very please with this purchase and the performance of this cook set.

For anyone wondering T-fal is a good brand out there! good quality and lasts a long time all my pans and pots are T-fal. although amazon packaging was poorly done.. but good thing my pans arrived in good condition, but there needs to be more security

I have tried all different brands of non stick pans and most lose their non stickness within a few months. This brand doesn’t and is PFAS free. Easy to clean and not too heavy.

Best set of pots I've ever owned. Nonstick easy clean-up

Wife loves this gift. On our second year with it. Very durable.
