I really like this set. It has everything I need.  For the price it is unbeatable. It cooks evenly.  My only complaint is I followed the directions. I kept the heat on the pans medium to low when cooking, but they get discolored at the bottom easily.   I have what looks like two finger tip size burn marks on two pots and I have only used them once.  I am sure it is easy to remove.  I'll probably find some solution on pinterest, but my husband pointed out that our other set never did this, but it was also twice the price.
