Ugh what a bummer. I received these in February with the chip on the rim in the first photo. I called Perigold and they were super helpful and offered for me to return them or receive a discount.  I took the discount thinking it was done in shipping and I could live with it. Fast forward 5 months later and they are chipping everywhere! The spots in the photos are not dirt they are actually chips out of the pans. I followed all care instructions and am not a cook so basically only make macaroni and cheese and scrambled eggs for my son and the pans can’t even handle that. Really disappointed.
