This set is awesome! We replaced an old non-stick set of pots and pans and we are really happy with this one. It looks attractive and we got it for a steal on a discount website. It performs well, seems to hold up to wear. We learned from our last set to use caution when stirring foods that may scratch the surface. So if you are contientious of the scratchable non-stick surface, the set will last a long time!
