28Pc 12-Element Stainless Steel Cookware Set

This is such a good deal I almost hate to post this rating because I plan to buy another set if available. I thoroughly read the reviews prior to buying these, especially the bad reviews, and from a structural stand point they seem to have corrected all of the problems and from a cooking point of view, if you read the information that comes with it thoroughly you will not have the stated problems in other posts.I was looking for a double boiler type of set when I ran across these. I had never really contemplated low heat cooking, I have always steamed.I read all of the information on how to cook different types of food. I was cooking Potatoes the first time out to test the process, so I followed the directions by cutting the raw potatoes in half with the exposed core facing up, placing them in a circular configuration on the bottom on their ends and the sides of the potatoes next to the side of the pans, and one in the middle so they would stand up. As described in the instructions, since I was new to the process, I put a little water in the bottom. At the same time I cooked asparagus in another pan, and broccoli and carrots in another.I then cooked it all on low heat as directed, The potatoes were perfect, so were the broccoli and carrots, the asparagus was only slightly under done because I went with the shorter time in the range.The handles are riveted to the pans with replaceable plastic inserts is that is ever needed. The lips around the edges of the tops of pans are sharp enough to cut if you grab the pan the wrong way, but I am not sure why you would as described in another post.The tops of the lids have thermometers that screw on and were sturdy and helpful when I was cooking. You do need to make sure you screw them on tightly washing them, especially if you plan to put them in a dishwasher. I hand washed them after this use. I did not see how these could break off as described in a post.It is very important to wash these before use with soapy water AND vinegar combined to avoid having a coating used in the manufacturing discolor when you cook. This was one of the complaints but was clearly stated in the literature in the box.You will be amazed at how much you get with this set.Read the literature and you will have no problems, do NOT use high heat, right out of the box, the literature explicitly indicates it could melt the bottoms which are designed to distribute the low heat to achieve the proper results.As a final note, I have always cooked with Gas but had to use these on a glass top electric the first time. The directions cover how to use both kinds and I followed the directions to a "T" to achieve my out of the box success.The only negative post I could not address is the one where the literature was missing. This would have been a huge problem. On top of that my only real disappointment was the literature did NOT describe how to stack and cook which is alluded to in the description.I highly recommend this product.

For years I've been looking for a cookware set similar to (amc) what my mother bought 40yrs ago and I still have and use 2.This are very similar and I love them, looks nice, easy to cook with very small amount of water. Vegetables taste delicious!Also I use no oil or very small amount to cook the meat.And the best part.. easy to clean..The only thing I do not like is that doesn't have a heat thermostat on the lid. Instead have a pressure thermostat.

The shipment was fast and items are good. I used it right away and it really works like saladmaster. This made in China as it is common nowadays. The pots are heavy and shiny. It is a good quality. I just can't afford to buy Saladmaster for 3K but for this 28 pcs Waterless cookware its a great deal and good items! Just be careful its kind of sharpy.

I bought this set. Upon arrival, I counted the pieces and it does not contain 28pcs. It contains 25pcs & the 26th piece the grater handle. I figured it was a good price so I would still keep it & try it. Soon after the 1st use of 2 casseroles, tiny spots began to emerge from under the varnish coat of the casseroles. After the 2nd use more spots began to emerge & the existing spots were wider. I decided to return this item, for I do not want to be cooking on cookware that could end up being toxic to my health as well, as that of my family's.

Thermometers on lids are C, rather than F. Attractive, heavy duty, and a great value.51/3/2016 Now all the knobs are falling off the lids!!!!
