I cook for every meal and have used this for going on a week. First of all, the way it all combines together in such a small little stack is SO convenient and space saves a ton of room in my tiny little kitchen cupboards! I love that feature! The pans have a great coating on them and a non stick coating that works amazing and cooks very evenly. This set comes with everything you need and especially if you are just starting out looking for a whole set of basics! I highly recommend and would buy again!
