Product Description
This cookware set is an exceptional value, including all of the pans needed to equip your kitchen with the most used cooking pieces. It includes saucepans for whisking a homemade sauce or cooking your morning oatmeal, a big stockpot for soups, stews or boiling pasta, and skillets (probably the most used pan in any kitchen) that will help you turn out perfect crepes or a simple grilled cheese sandwich. The set also includes a saute pan, a wide, straight-sided pan that can perform many of the functions of a skillet but features deep sides for extra capacity, perfect for one dish meals. Start your dish in this pan by sauteing onions and browning meat, then add your liquid and other ingredients into the same pan to finish on the stovetop or in the oven.

5 out of 5 stars Very Good Product!   March 4, 2010
R. Steffens (MO)
Very good product with great reviews from Consumer Reports. We've had the set for a couple of weeks and we're very impressed with the durability and the non-stick surfacing. A great purchase.


4 out of 5 stars Nice, basic cookware for the price.   February 12, 2010

This was a Christmas gift for my son and his wife. We has a Sensible Christmas this year.
He really likes the pieces, cooks a lot and needed a basic set. He does put them in the dishwasher (?) which is unnecessary because they clean up in a flash. Lids seal nicely. Pieces aren't too heavy, but have a decent weight and seem to heat evenly.
A good buy for a starter set.



5 out of 5 stars Fabulous set   February 8, 2010

I can't tell you how much I love this cookware set! Nothing sticks and it cleans up so easily. Even cooking, no burning, buy it.


4 out of 5 stars Unbeatable for the cost   January 30, 2010
L. Pederson (FL, USA)
This is an older model of cookware that Analon no longer sells on their website (probably why it's sold so cheap!), but it still has all the modern features you need. The non-stick works amazing. Warm dish-soapy water and the soft side of the sponge is all I've ever needed to clean the non-stick surface, one light swipe and the food is gone, even after sitting out all night. The hard anodized aluminum is extremely porous though, and requires noticeably more effort than standard aluminum or stainless cookware to clean. If any food gets on the hard anodized section of the pot you really need to wipe it off before it dries, or it will stick, and possibly stain if it's acidic like with a tomato base. The stainless handles are thick and sturdy, fairly fingerprint resistant, and don't really heat up to speak of. They remain cool to the touch throughout cooking as long as you grab them by the end instead of down next to the pot. The lids and lid handles, however, do get very hot, and need to be handled with a hot pad or glove.

The pans are equivalent in thickness to similarly-categorized Calphalon and Cuisinart sets (meaning they're much thicker than any of the cookware you'd find at Target or Wal-Mart, and very solid feeling), and is in no way a bargain or cheap product. Build quality is actually superior to some more recent Calphalon products, and far superior to the entry-level "Simply Calphalon" cookware.

Definitely make sure you use only plastic or wooden utensils with these pots, however, and I'd recommend not using the scrubbing side of the sponge on the non-stick, only on the anodized section. I've heard the Autograph 2 non-stick is susceptible to damage if you use scrubbing sponges or metal utensils, so I've avoided those practices and the non-stick is holding up beautifully.

I ordered this set of pans in October for my daughter who is an excellent cook. She had requested a set of anolon hard- anodized pans. After using a couple of other pans ordered from Amazon we were sure these would fit the bill. Upon opening them this morning, she was totally shocked - not what she had expected at all. The exterior surface is fine, but the interior surface will not sear meat - because it is not the hard anodized that was advertized. Good pans, but not what was advertised. Amazon totally blew it.
