| Like her dynamic cutlery, Rachael Ray cookware first enchants the eye before you even realize how well you can cook with it. The handsome charcoal-gray, hard-anodized pots and pans feature shiny stainless-steel handles wrapped with neon-orange silicone grips that practically glow with the kinetic energy of this celebrity chef. It'll come as no surprise that orange is Ray's favorite color. A smile is practically guaranteed each time you pull one of these pans out of the cupboard or see them hanging by your stove. As for cooking, hard-anodized aluminum heats quickly and evenly, resists scratching, and is incredibly durable. The interior nonstick finish allows food to slide right off. You're good to go with this 10-piece set of commonly-used cookware. Included are 1-1/2- and 3-quart covered saucepans; 8- and 10-inch open French skillets; a 6-quart covered stockpot for big batches of pasta and chili; and a 3-quart/10-inch covered sauté pan. The glass lids let you monitor cooking without losing steam or nutrients, and feature stainless-steel rims and handle with those same neon-orange silicone grips. Every piece is oven-safe to 400 degrees F, so you can start a dish on the stovetop and finish it with a hot bake-through. For the best care, washing the nonstick cookware by hand is recommended. An excellent gift, the set is covered by a lifetime limited warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri What's in the Box

 Amazing cookware |

| I received this cookware December 06 and have been cooking with it everyday since then. It is truly an amazing cookware set. It goes from stove top to oven with no problem. It looks nice hanging on my pot rack in my kitchen even after all of the use it gets from me and my family. The pots cook evenly and the food does not stick making clean up spectacularly fast and easy. I was lucky enough to receive and add to my collection this past Christmas the larger, deep oval skillet for large family dinners. I highly recommend this set for anyone from beginning cooks to very experienced ones. |
Excellent Cookware

| I bought the set about 4 months ago and absolutly love it. It is sooo easy to clean, and I don't normally like to handwash, and it cooks great. The orange handles are great especially if you have kids that like to help you cook. I have since bought the 8 qt. pasta to add to my original set. Can't say enough good things about this cookware. |
best set ever

I was looking for an upgrade to my cheap pots from college. There are many brands out there that are a lot more expensive, but you cannot go wrong with this set of cookware. I have had my set for a month now and have used it every day for dinner. Besides the orange handles (that are great grips, by the way), these pots are beautiful and of great quality. The entire set comes with glass lids, and the range of sizes is perfect for a single person or an entire family. I highly recommend this item for anyone, whether a regular cook or an experimental chef. The pots are easy to wash (by hand only!), are aesthetically pleasing, and make my food taste amazing. I have not burned anything, as the aluminum helps evenly distribute heat.
I have cooked everything in these pots including potatoes, breakfast foods, stove casseroles, soups, pastas, sauteed veggies, shrimp, you name it. If you need a new set of pots and pans that will make your meals a delight to eat AND make, then I recommend this set. Rachael Ray uses these pots/pans on her own show, as well, which speaks for the quality and value you will have in your own kitchen. Unlike other non-stick pots with one can use metal utensils without risk of damaging the inside, as it lacks the teflon or enamel non-stick coating. This also allows you to add more heat to what you're cooking.
One con might be not being able to wash the pots/pans in the dishwasher. I do not mind this as I've never washed any of my cookware that way. Just be aware that if you are not a hand-washer you will be stuck doing so anyway. Even so, the nonstick (but not coated) surface makes it a breeze to wash with some soap and water. No need for scrubbing or scouring pads. Your pots will be good as new to use for the next meal. Besides this I do not see anything to write a negative review about. This will definitely get you excited to cook and try new things! |
