This cookware is great for the price. I've used a few different pieces so far and have really like it. They are lightweight but fairly sturdy and the handles don't get too hot on the stove top (they do get hot in the oven though). The lids fit right and the handles are on tight. They are dishwasher safe, but I hand wash them. As others have described, there is a slight rainbow affect on the interior of the pots after usage, but it's minor and I don't mind it, particularly since the outside of the pot has not discolored at all. This is a great set for this price.

Pros: the number of pieces, sizes, price
Cons: slight rainbow effect could be bothersome to some
