Cuisinart Chef’s Classic Nonstick Hard-Anodized 14-Piece Cookware Set Review
I bought Cuisinart Chef set over a year ago, desperate for some decent pots and pans. I have been very impressed with cooking performance and they do clean up easily. Non-stick coating has given me no issues, still like new.I am an avid home chef & treasure high-quality cookware. These are great! They are thinner (but harder) than many brands, which I truly love. Lower heat settings can be used for comparable results in other cookware, which saves energy, money, & severity of burns if the user is accident prone.
The price is great! This is a high quality product! There are 14pc included and they are all in useable sizes.The 4 quart sauté pan is wonderful!!! And I absolutely love the steamer basket, which was a huge selling point for me because I steam veggies everyday! I am very impressed with everything about these pots and pans! The non-stick finish has been very durable so far, and extremely easy to clean. They cook evenly with no hot spots, etc. One important thing to note that makes this set different than most other hard anodized cookware is that these are made with an aluminum core. So they have a hard anodized exterior and a non-stick interior, but the aluminum core makes them quite a bit lighter in weight to most other products. The exterior finish is awesome, it’s a smooth hard anodized finish and very easy to maintain.
The cookware pieces are attractive, well-made and perform exactly as described by the manufacturer. A smooth finish inside and out means that hand-washing is easy; food just does not stick in the pans. The rivets are easy to clean, too. Anyway, if you are considering this cookware and are comparing it to more expensive brands, and then save your money! You will not be disappointed with this purchase!
