I absolutely love cooking with my Hestan Nanobond cookware. I did a LOT of research prior to making this purchase because it's a big purchase and I wanted to make sure I bought something I would be happy with for a long time. These pans are incredible - not only are they beautiful and well-made, but they perform: they are the perfect weight (not too light, not too heavy), heat distribution and retention is the best I've experienced, and nothing sticks to them. I'm so impressed and am extremely happy with this purchase. I will be buying more Hestan products in the future.
