Excited doesn't describe how I felt to receive and try the Anolon Allure Hard-Anodized Nonstick 12-Piece Cookware Set. I love to cook so I knew I would be putting this set to the test. 
Out of the box this set is beautiful. You can tell the materials are top notch and the construction was perfect. Lids fit snugly and handles are very sturdy. 
When cooking they heated nicely on my glass stove top and both the pots and pans sit level. I had NO issues with sticking or uneven cooking. When removing I had no issues with the handles being too hot. Cleaning was easy and there was no scrubbing involved. 
I can tell by only using this set a few times that it is going to last me for years to come. I would strongly suggest this set to anyone who wants a fantastic pots and pans set that will last the tests of time and that will not bend, flake or fall apart after using.
