I gave it a little while to review these pots and pans because I wanted to see how they really held up after a while of use and washing. I went through a mixture of hand washing and throwing them in the dishwasher to see how they handled wear and tear. Still perfect cookware!! Not a scratch, dent, rust, chips nothing to be seen!! It cooks our food pretty evenly and hasn't held caked on anything for me. I will spray my favorite dishwashing foam in pans I think might hold stuck on dinner when I leave it sitting in the dishwasher for a while before it's full and it never disappoints. They all come out clean and I have yet to have a problem. Also they stack so well in the cabinet so its not all cluttered and haphazard. Another plus is the handles don't heat up and burn your hand like other cheaper brands. It has been a tremendous help with our daughter learning to help cook without fear of getting burnt.
