CAROTE17 Pcs Pot and Pan Set, Non-Stick Kitchen Cookware Set, Easy to Clean Kitchen Pot and Pan, Pot and Pan Set for Cooking, Cream

I have been researching non toxic pans for a while now. I have Hashimotos & I was told that I should stay away from Teflon. So I decided after looking for a while to order some. Well, I was looking at prices on some other cookware & they were probably the price of a car payment. Then I happen to see these & I put them in my cart to order later because they got really good reviews & were really reasonably priced. Well, I went back a few days later & they were on sale & I thought it was as good a time as any. I have been using for over 3 months & they are amazing. I cook with just a tiny bit of olive oil & nothing sticks. The clean up is almost non existent. You could almost just wipe it with a paper towel & call it a night. I wanted to try the smaller set first before I ordered anymore pieces. I'm thinking about getting some more to add to the set that I already have. I recommend trying them. I mean, what have you got to lose besides hours scrubbing pots & pans. Lol.

I’ve owned a 10 piece set for 5 years now. I’ve been so happy with this set that I came back to the listing to see if I could order another 4 quart pot individually. I’m not a chef by any means. I honestly have little interest in cooking, it’s just one of those things ya gotta do. I mention this to let you know where this review is coming from. I’m not some refined chef who is particular about my cook ware, I am not careful with my pots, I’m sure I do everything “wrong”. What I want in a pot or pan is something sturdy, that doesn’t warp, that doesn’t have it’s interior or exterior finish rubbing or scratching off, that stays non-stick, and that can handle dishwasher exclusive washing. And these pots hit it out of the park on all of these things. Prior to buying this set I’ve owned a lot of pots. Pots I’d pickup at Target or HomeGoods or wherever. None of the pots I’ve ever bought in the past have performed as well as these. I was constantly throwing out pots and rebuying them. Yes, I’m still tempted to pick up a pretty pot in my favorite color from HomeGoods. But I resist the temptation. I know it won’t last long & will be in the garbage before long. I’m sticking with these pots. They’ve stood the test of time & I couldn’t be more satisfied.

I ordered these because I desperately needed a new set of pots to cook with and these did not disappoint. Upon arrival, I noticed that one of my lids had a minor dent in it and contacted support to see if I could get a replacement. Unfortunately, they were sold out of the lid that I needed so they offered me a refund for the lid. Overall, I loved how fast their customer service was to respond to my inquiry.I do want to note, that if you do use this set do not put them in the oven. I made the mistake of putting one of the pots in the oven and one of the wooden handles came out with a giant crack in the middle of them. I love this set and the customer service is awesome.

I wanted to wait and really use this cookware set before reviewing. So here it is! These things are hands down amazing. The first day I was cooking with them I ended having an accident and cut myself (NOT ON THE PANS). Well I had to leave the food in the pan for about 24hr due to stitches. The food still slid right out! Cleaned up beautifully. No staining or anything. They have held up to my husband’s cooking as well and that says a lot! I would definitely buy again!

I found this set in one of those 30 Things Amazon Buyers Love articles and fell in love with them. I loved the look of the granite finish and had this set in my cart for several weeks. This wasn't the actual set that was in the article, that one was a smaller set but I opted to splurge for the larger set and I am glad I did. These replaced my Epicurious copper colored set that when new, retailed over $300. They are not that expensive now.However, I can't quite give it 5 stars.The good stuff: super attractive, lightweight, induction compatible, easy to clean, non-stick coating, so far, works great. I love the pour spouts in the smaller pans, including the frying pans. I love that the frying pans have high sides, much less mess that way and I can make larger batches of things like scrambled eggs. I also love that the covers are interchangeable so every pot, including the frying pans, have a cover. The handles on the smaller pans are attractive in their wood simulated color/coating. I wish they were wood but they probably wouldn't have been affordable if that were the case. They were packaged extremely well. Honestly, I can't figure out how they managed to get all of that in the size of the box they did, but there was no damage whatsoever and no scratches. The utensils that came with this set almost perfectly match the new set of utensils I got a few weeks before, so that was great. I do love the shorter handle tongs. The stock pots are wider rather than deeper but still hold plenty. The larger one boiled nearly 10 pounds of potatoes for Easter with no issues.The not so good: The larger stock pots have moulded handles rather than the simulated wood. They get very hot! Use caution, keep pot holders handy, you will need them. They do not have pour spouts, which is a little disappointing. They scratch easily, I was using my bamboo spatula to break up hamburger and noted during the washing the frying pan was little scratched. I have switched to 100% silicone (which is what the utensils that came with them are.) They stain easily, which can be avoided if washed immediately but I did not after making meat for tacos and the spice pack stained the frying pan. I didn't wash right away and I wish I had. It's not awful, but it bugs me because they are new. You also will want to wash the utensils right away too, because those will stain if you don't. The covers will get moisture in the small void where the handle is screwed on. Do not immerse or leave them in the sink to have water constantly poured on them as you are washing hands, other pans, etc. I can't tell if moisture from cooking will also cause this, but it's possible.Overall? I love this set. Much of the negatives can be avoided with proper care and foresight. They are beautiful enough to have on display rather hiding in a cupboard. If I could give it 4 and a half stars, I would. I highly recommend.ETA September 2024: I’m not going to ding the stars, because I still love this set BUT I did find a couple more issues.The biggest is that one of the covers does not fit ANY pan properly. I didn’t catch it at first because I don’t cook a lot of meals that require leaving the cover on and this is for the 5 quart sauce pan, which I use even less. But I’ve used it a couple times recently and the cover just does not sit on the pan correctly. I tried other covers, maybe I had to wrong one, but nope, this is the one and it doesn’t work on any of them. It doesn’t securely sit on the pan, so it’s kind of wobbly. Disappointing, but I can live with it.Second, and again, I didn’t notice because only one pan is impacted, but again, the 5 quart sauce pan is the only one that has texture to mimic stoneware/grantite. It’s clearly cosmetic but I have to admit, it would have been really nice if all of them had this texture.Once again, I do love the set but it does have its drawbacks.

I am so happy with my purchase! I absolutely love this set. I do have to say, be careful they heat up quickly. My son, who’s a chef, has been pleased but has found the quick heating of the pans an adjustment. Assembling the handles and lids was simple and I’ve had no problems as of yet. I highly recommend and plan on buying additional pieces to add to the set.
