Duxtop Tri-Ply Stainless Steel Induction Cookware, 9PC Pots and Pans Set | Whole Clad 3-Layer Steel, Family Cookware Set, Even Heating, Dishwasher and Oven Safe

This pan set replaced a Cephelon non-stick pan set. My wife and I were getting a bit aprehensive about the flaking of the coating and I decided to get this stainless set. I really wanted copper bottoms, but for what I was willing to spend, it seemed like anything with copper was just a coating, not actual copper. Once I settled on this set, I ordered and waited a bit longer than the Two Day Prime shipping. Once I actually received the pans. I was pleased with the fit and finish. They are sturdy and feel good in the hand. I am a very hands on cook who likes to flip and swirl as opposed to just stirring. The handles stay cool and the pans are weighted nicely so they don't tip to the handle while on the stove. The pans heat quickly and stay hot, which is good when you pick them up to toss the veggies around a bit. I read a tip in another review about letting the pans heat before cooking to close off the pores on the cooking surface to avoid sticking. So far so good on that front. The pans do discolor a bit with cooking, but as long as they don't mess with the flavor I could care less. If I had wanted display pots, I would have bought copper and a hanging rack. I am also sure a little Bartenders Helper or whatever that cleaner is, will shine things right back up if I ever care to use it. 3 year update: These pans are still going strong. There are some scratches at the bottom of the pan from using metal implements to stir food, but there is no staining, burned in residues, or any other discoloration. The handles are still firmly attached and the pan lid handles are the same way. This is one of the best pan purchases, besides my cast iron skillet, that I have made. 7 year update: These pots and pans have been through the ringer and are still holding up beautifully. They are just as sturdy as the first day I got them and the finish is still shiny. All the handles are firm and the lids are as solid as ever. My wife has burned I don't know how many eggs into the smaller frying pan and they come out easily with a little soak. I will probably end up using these pans forever as I am a firm believer in if it isn't broke, don't fix it methodology.

After 28 years of marriage I finally got a good set of cookware! We had a cheaper set of hand me down Revere Ware from the days of my first apartment. As pieces wore out they were replaced by more cheap pots and pans. Finally, I decided it was time to get rid of my cheap hodgepodge cookware and get something good, but still needed to stay on budget. These did the trick! I have used them about 5 months now on a glass top electric range. (not induction.) They cook evenly and clean up easily. The pans clean up easier than non stick cookware and don't have a coating we have to worry about flaking off. The handles feel natural in my hand, comfortable to grip, and each piece is weighted nicely. They have enough heft to tell they are solidly built but not too heavy for me to handle with food in them. They still look like new and we use them every day. I have them hanging on a ceiling mounted rack from S hooks and they look great. I am very happy with these and would recommend them to anyone looking for a decent set of cookware at a fair price.

Love my pan set. They are beautiful, easy to clean, cooks evenly. For the negative comments complaining about sticking these people clearly do not know how to cook in stainless steel. Eggs cook beautifully in the pans if you know how to use them. My only wish is I wish they made a 12 or 14 inch skillet.

I wanted and expected so much for this to be a 5-star review. I bought my first Duxtop pan 3 years ago to use for making tea. I wanted something inexpensive that I could scour, as needed, with Barkeeper's Friend and this fit the bill. I was very surprised with the quality of that first pan and it has become my go-to stove-top 3qt pot and I use it for far more than tea. I have a 30 year-old copper-bottom stainless set that I love and I bought a Cuisinart French Classic set here on Amazon that I like a lot. The problem with the Cuisinart is that the pots all have straight sides and tops, no curve for pouring so they always drip. Not a huge problem but it adds cleaning time. So when I wanted another tri-ply set for my new induction stove, I immediately looked at the Duxtop. The price on the Duxtop set was about 35% lower than I've seen Duxtop sets up to now so, based on my experience with that first pot, I ordered two of the 9-piece sets - it was that great of a price. Then came the gotcha. These pans are "ok" pans but not nearly the quality of the older pan. The handles have been modified, thinner, lighter, more pointed (pokey when gripping) etc. Though these are sold to US consumers, they're laser etched with liters inside rather than quarts, etc. Just in general, I don't love them the way I love that original Duxtop. If you need an inexpensive stainless, tri-ply, pan set for induction tops, this will definitely fill the bill but the overall design and quality has gone down so that is disappointing.

Having used nonstick cookware forever I was a little nervous in switching to stainless steel but.....I'm so glad I did!!! I absolutely love this brand!! It is very sturdy and quite heavier than others. Love it's shine, the size of the individual pots, and the cute lids! it's a stunning set at that! it took me awhile to get used to the preheating and no longer use of cooking spray, but at least now I can scrub them clean and not have to worry about scratching teflon. The price was fantastic!!

Update 2-27-18 I like this cookware so much that I've purchased the 3 quart chicken fryer which includes a lid. Makes perfect chicken in wine because I can finish cooking in the oven. Also remember that stainless lids are more sanitary than glass because food can't get trapped inside. Update 11-03-16: I've now owned and happily used this cookware for over 2 years. I can honestly say that it cooks as well as my single All Clad saute pan (which I received as a gift). Considering that I can buy a full set of the Duxtop cookware for LESS than the price of one All Clad pan, the purchase becomes a no-brainer. This is a fantastic product at a bargain price! If you're looking for a starter set of tri-ply cookware, look no further. This is a high quality set at an incredible price. Don't hesitate, cuz Amazon might come around and start selling this set for a profit. The pieces are heavier than one would expect and have VERY solid handles that stay reasonably cool. Sticking should not be a major problem as long as you remember to ALWAYS preheat your pans before adding your lipid. Also, tri-ply construction means that you are able to cook at a lower temperature setting than you may be used to with your previous cookware. Once you adapt to the "Stainless Learning Curve", you'll never want another type of cookware. BTW: Tri-ply works great regardless of your type of heating element.

I waited to write a review. I’m married and have two kids, so I cook a lot. I got tired of “non-stick” pans constantly chipping, even high end brands. All those chemicals can’t be healthy. So I figured I would try stainless out. I did a lot of research on how to use them and how to clean and take care of them. I use a glass top electric range and I’ve been using these for a few months now and they are perfect. Easy to clean and non stick if you “season” the pans first. You don’t need high heat with these.. just do research and watch videos on how to take care of and cook with stainless. It’s pretty easy once you figure it all out. I’ve looked through the bad reviews on here too and I’ve noticed almost all of them are people who used too much heat or didn’t season the pans and just didn’t take care of them. Do your own research like I did. These pans are amazing for the price.

Solid, attractive, reasonably priced. I'm very happy with this set. The Stainless is thicker and heavier than I expected which is a plus.

I've been using this product for a few weeks now and I'm impressed with its quality and durability

Update: July 2018, I can say these are still holding up after two years. I certainly am glad that I decided to buy these. I have not tried them in the oven yet as I have my cast iron for that. I have used all the pots and pans now and can say they clean up easily, even after cooking sausages in the frying pan. If you are thinking of getting yourself a first set of pots and pans, give these a try. Even though I have not used all the pans yet, the two pots I have used have excellent weight. I followed the instructions on using lower heat for them and they seem to be quicker at coming up to the boil point then the other pots I use. The only thing I noticed I don't like is that the inside has discoloured after using first time for boiling water for potatoes etc, but this has not affected the use of them. I hand wash them only, to keep the outside looking great! Great price too!

Quise abandonar el peligroso teflón y estos productos no lo contienen. Soy muy resistentes, duraderos y cumplen con lo prometido.

Estupendo! Primer calidad a un precio increible! Merecen 10 estrellas!

We bought these pots to go with our new Induction Range and we are very pleased with the results. Two other family members (our kids) persuaded us to replace our gas range with an induction cooker and we are very pleased to report that these Duxtop pots are superior in service to the big name pots they bought for their induction stoves. The evenness of the heat through the bottom of these seems definitely to be better than the other brands our family members have. The Duxtop are a pleasure to look at and to handle. PS - It would be nice if there were a matching tea kettle.
