This is a wonderful set of cookware it was well pack in the box and pack to secure each item. We used this set couple weeks before writing a review to make sure we got want we needed out of it. I admit we lazy so we dishwash everything and these pots and pans held up pretty good getting toss around in the sink to dishwasher! No dents or scratches on the outside or inside of the cookware. It heats up pretty even all around the pans and pots to get that even cook. The glass is a temperred glass so it holds up against the heat but also gives a moisture to what you are cooking to prevent to dry out. This is a perfect  set of cookware for any home. The hard anodized aluminum is the best way to go!
