This is a very nice set of cookware that I bought in order to replace pots and pans that are not useable on an induction cooktop.  The capacities, handles, and lids are the right sizes for most cooking purposes, and the price was excellent.  They do tend to show scratches a bit more than pure 18/10 cookware, but I am not looking to put them on display, so I don't care.  As long as I can prepare food, I'm happy.  These utensils also heat quickly, and do not need as high a burner setting to do the job.
