I was in awe when I set my eyes on the beautiful teal color. Reminded me of a car color. Has a sparkle to it. Bottoms are firm and thick. Metal Grey color inside. The skillets and pots arnt to heavy, not to light, just right. The handles are rubber so not to burn your hands when cooking. Glass lids are clear with same rubber handles. Cooked my food great and so easy to clean. Love this set. Also food did not stick.
