Don’t purchase!
Unhappy and super disappointed with this purchase. Coating is pealing on almost all of the pieces and I don’t feel safe cooking with them as I’m not sure what is flaking into my food. I have only ever hand washed these. I wish I had gone with stainless steel instead. Cuisinart, any way you can help me?

Love this set
Very high quality set. I absolutely love it. It’s my first stainless steel set and there is a learning curve for the nonstick frying pans, but if you watch some videos and read about cooking with them you can do it easily. The handles on the pans themselves have stayed cool for me, but I did have one lid that got too hot to touch. I definitely recommend buying Barkeeper’s Friend cleaner to have on hand to clean the pans with if you have tough stains, or if it gets discolored. The discoloration is not damaging to the pan and the cleaner takes it away. Otherwise I just use Dawn soap.

Stained spots that can be easily cleaned
They seem to work really well, but tend to have spots that stick.

Wonderful Set at a Wonderful Price
Excellent! Very happy with this set. The "everything sticks" reviews are most likely from customers who don't know how to use stainless steel cookware. Stainless is not for everyone. The cookware is well made and looks fantastic, even after use. Cleaning can be a bit of a chore, but, again, stainless is not for everyone. Steak, chops, veggies, soups, stews, chili and eggs all come out great. I highly recommend this set to folks who are a bit more "into" cooking and not your average Joe or Jane who is looking for non-stick pots and pans right out of the box.

Meeh I would NOT recommend
I purchased this 17 piece Nonstick set and the NON STICK material started coming off. I used wood and plastic utensil to keep from scratching the syrface and we have a glass top stove. 1st the bottoms started "de-coloring" as if we were deep frying everything and then started noticing swirls and then scratches inside the frying pans. I know everyday use BUT due to the trusted name and type of material, i thought these would last a lifetime. Love the name brand and even bought a Cuisinart 3 in 1 Stainless 5 burner grill. NOW that needs the internal burners replaced.

Shockingly Awful
I'm 62 and am comfortable enough to have a Cuisinart Kitchen before I retire. Big mistake! I bought the hard anodize (not likely) cookware set and the plating totally came off! The suggestion was to hand wash to keep pots looking nice but they got cloudy so I put in dishwasher thinking "they look terrible now so why not?" I am in engineering in a sheetmetal shop and have never had this happen. Someone is lying there. Sadly I am never buying another Cuisinart item ever. Fry pan did the same thing and had to get a coffeemaker replaced as well.

Everything sticks
Every time I use the cookware no matter what I cook it sticks to it. I have used olive oil, butter and a cooking spray and whatever I am cooking still sticks to the pan.
Response from Macy's
Hi Jenny,
You can try preheating the skillet before adding any oil or butter to help prevent sticking.
To check if the skillet is hot enough, add a few drops of water—once the droplets move around easily, you can add the oil or butter.
If the issue persists, please contact us at 1-800-726-0190 or email customerservice@cuisinart.com, and reference ticket number 8900396615.

Chef's Classic Stainless Steel Cookware - A+
Complete set of stainless steel cookware for every need. Well made, nice handles that you can grip firmly and not just a knob. I had to buy new cookware for an electric ceramic cooktop after having a gas cooktop for many years. After much research, I ordered this set and am extremely pleased. I love that they are dishwasher safe, though a few pans have just a bit of discoloration on the inside bottom after washing. It does not affect cooking, so it's a minor thing. I would purchase these again and highly recommend.
