I am soon happy I have this set. First off, it has no Lead, no Cadmium and No PFOA.  And, as we all hopefully know, this is a good thing.  They are a beautiful blue color, Indigo, and it matches the colors in my kitchen, they heat up very quickly, I don't even have to turn my burners up to high anymore.  I usually use wooden utensils and I've seen nor experienced any scratches.  I'm even able to cook things inside the oven with them.  And the handles don't get hot either.  It states that the lids are shatterproof, but I'm not going to try that one out.  I really love this whole set and I'd definitely recommend them!
