I have to admit how selective I am when it comes to cookware. Recently I was enticed with a copper ceramic pan that I purchased as it would cook without food sticking to it and clean just as easily. I am stoked to be providing my honest opinion in exchange for this set I received for free, with even better quality and different pieces that are meant for what I am cooking. Lovely warm color that just looks perfect in my kitchen. Craftsmanship is beautiful, I thoroughly inspected it all. PFOA, PTFE, lead & cadmium free, your family deserves that. So convenient washing all the pieces in my dishwasher. I have been using bamboo utensils to cook with, do the same and you won’t scratch surfaces. Also, do not use abrasive brushes either of course. It says it can be used in the oven, that I didn’t try yet. I would absolutely recommend it.
