KitchenAid® Tri-Ply Stainless Steel 10-Piece Set

This is a wonderfully complete set, big enough to cook most any meal. I cook most of our meals from scratch, so my pans get a lot of use. They maintain their shiny new look with just a little car, easy to keep looking like new. Great strength and stay cool handle that is welded for extra piece of mind. Good design in the glass lid. Keeps moisture in for faster, moister cooking. Makes it simple to watch your food cook without removing the lid. Ease of use handle on lid also makes lifting lid more comfortable. Easy to clean by hand or in dishwasher. A little gourmet cooks hint: For ease of use and to help to keep food from sticking in any type of pan always throughly heat pan before adding any oil. Then heat oil before adding food. Makes clean up a breeze in most cases. I don't use non stick pans, no need with proper heating of pan. The small skillet was really good for cooking eggs. The large skillets second handle makes it easy for lifting when filled with food. Also love that these pans are oven safe. And I can't say enough about the convenient measurement markings on the inside, really useful for adding liquids to the stock pot for for soups and stews. I especially love the fact that I can use this set on my glass top range and well as my induction burner with equally good results. Pans heat quickly and maintain the heat. All views where mine after using the pans.

Quality three ply construction with measurements, great for cooking all type of food. Browns/sears beautifully, cleans easily with a variety of methods (scour, Barkeepers Friend, cloth). Caramelizes onions to perfection, squash soup with citrus without pocking (acid), heavy enough to make caramels, hot fudge, chocolate candies and corned beef. A gourmet cook's dream. Love the handles on the pans & lids, which stay cool - lids are clear so you can see what is happening. Much better than non-stick for health and cooking reasons.

I was hesitant at first to use stainless steel for cooking eggs for breakfast. Much to my surprise, the small skillet was "stick free" better than my Teflon type. I found the pots heated up faster on my gas stove than other stainless pots I currently own. I LOVE the level markings inside pots, no more guessing how much liquid I am cooking with. Lids do not hiss & bubble when cooking veggies. I also like the fact that the lid handles do not get hot, and do not need a pot holder when lifting lids to avoid getting an unexpected burn! All in all, I simply enjoy cooking with the set, have no complaints. Clean-up is easy, sometimes I needed Barkeepers Friend Liquid to remove blue markings on bottom of pots. I also like the quality of the weight of the set, better than what I currently own (All-clad).

I can't think of anything negative about the set except for the fact my daughter is building a summer home and I have to keep an eye on the cookware to make sure it doesn't disappear when she visits.

Browning meat before finishing in the oven is made easy with oven proof handles.
See-through lids prevent boiling over.

Have used everyday. Cooks food quickly at lower heat. Easy clean up. Goes into dishwasher and comes out spotless. Made specialty recipe that called for stove top searing, then oven cooking. Pan worked great! Love that it can be used on both cooktop and oven. The pans are very well made. Some other products look nice, but you can feel and see the difference in the quality. Have shown these pans to all my family and friends. Can't say enough good things about them. Best cookware I have ever used and owned.

My husband and I enjoy home-cooked meals at least five nights a week and we prepare special meals for family and friends at least three times a month. In addition, I make soups from scratch for our lunches during the week. We are delighted with this elegant set of cookware. The three ply construction ensures very even heating, yet the pans are not too heavy to lift. The handles are welded onto the pans so that we won't have to worry about screws coming loose and trying to find replacement handles! They fit our hands perfectly and stay cool better than any other cookware that we've used. The glass lids allow us to see the food as it cooks, and the handles on the lids are a delight. Not only do they stay cool, but they allow the cook to get a good grip, in contrast to those on some brands that are simply a knob. Another feature we're finding very useful are the lines on the inside of the saucepans and the stock pot in both liter and quart measurements. It's so easy to fill the pot to the desired amount instead of using an additional measuring device. The pans are easy to clean with a nylon scrubber and some Bon Ami or Barkeeper's Friend so that they retain their shine. This set of KitchenAid cookware has joined my KitchenAid stand mixer and my KitchenAid food processor as our favorite kitchen items. We've cleaned out our cabinets and donated our old cookware since we know that this new set will last forever and enable us to cook healthy and delicious meals for years to come.

I have personally tested these pans against others in the marketplace specifically for induction. These are the best. Great performance, pan detection is never a problem, even with the small pots. Do not believe all other claims that pans are "Induction Suitable" - usually that means they might barely detect or cook slow/uneven. These live up to the name.

I love the durability of these pans. Sleek, clean, good handles, and made of good quality material. My only complaint is they are hard to find the right temperature for them with an electric range. They are high tech and the electric stove doesn't operate that way. Commercial kitchen and newer homes have gas so these are the ticket.

These pans are beautiful, sturdy, and easy to clean. They heat quickly and evenly on my gas stove. The measurements on the insides of each pan are handy when adding liquids. I've made several soups in the stockpot. It is deep enough to use my KitchenAid immersion blender without splashing the stove and myself. The clear lids are convenient for foods like rice and grits. The larger skillet is efficient for sautéing and deglazing and making sauces. The extra handle makes it easy to pour the sauces. I received this set for free in exchange for a review.

I bought this tri-ply cookware a couple of weeks ago; every single pot and pan is just perfect; cooks evenly, easy to wash, pans stay up perfectly on my glass-top stove, and the pots and pans don't tip like my old set and the bottoms are very flat which means the pots don't swivel. I particularly love the saute pan it's perfect for making creamy chicken pasta, it is very deep and has a lid. The small frying pan is excellent for making pancakes. I'm actually thinking of buying this set for my son's wedding in April. Obviously, I recommend this cookware.
