Experience Nonstick Cookware Set 12 Piece, Induction, Oven Broiler Safe 350F, Kitchen Cooking Set w/Fry Pans, Saucepan, Stockpot, Kitchen Utensils, Pots and Pans, Dishwasher Safe, Black

These are the best pots/pans I have ever used! This particular one I actually purchased as a gift for my mom, but I have completely switched all of my pots and pans to the T-Fal E series. I have yet to cook (or burn) anything that actually stuck to the surface and couldn't just be wiped out. FOR EXAMPLE: I occasionally make sandwiches for my family, and one thing that I do is throw deli meat (whether it's turkey, ham, salami, etc.) in the pan to heat it up and give it a slight crispiness, and top it with cheese (processed, shredded, real cheese, whatever we have at the time). I will then flip it over to "toast" the cheese side. Again, the cheese releases from the surface as good as the meat does, and this gives it a little smoky flavor that adds to the overall taste. This is by far the best non-stick pan I have ever used! PROS: Incredibly non-stick No harmful chemicals in the coating (does NOT contain PTFE (Teflon) Super easy to clean Lightweight, but solid Has a color changing circle in the center to let you know when it's hot Retains a considerable amount of heat (you can cook the same with less heat from the burner) CONS: Does not hold up to use with metal utensils -- have to use silicone-coated or plastic Made of aluminum -- this contributes to the light weight, but is soft and dents/bends easily if not properly cared for Lids are not readily available (T-Fal does not make them) After about 2 1/2 years of near daily use, this particular pan became "sticky" due to improper care (the non-stick surface became VERY scratched, down to metal in some spots), but this is not a fault of the pan. It could have easily been prevented. I cook just about every meal for my family, and after using this I would never switch to a different brand or series of pots and pans. But, like any high-quality item, they must be properly cared for. SUGGESTIONS: ALWAYS wash by hand, do NOT put in dishwasher!! (This should be self-explanatory, it takes approximately 30 seconds to completely clean by hand). For me, washing consists of a rinse under hot water, a simple wipe (NO SCRUBBING NEEDED) with either a soapy soft-sponge or cloth, followed by a hot water rinse and towel dry. DONE! NEVER heat pan with nothing in it!! (Even though it is non-stick, you should always add a little oil/butter or whatever you are cooking to the pan while heating). This prevents the pan from overheating. DO NOT overheat!! Overheating the pan causes the coating to "scorch" and will greatly reduces it's effectiveness. ALWAYS use plastic or silicone-coated utensils, as metal utensils WILL damage the surface. Pay attention to your cooking temperature! The design of these pans allow you to get a better cook in the same amount of time with less heat on the burner! For example, I can boil water with the burner set at 6 in the same amount of time that it takes an aluminum or stainless pot to boil with the burner on 9 or 10. Frying (say, eggs or burgers) can be done on 4 or 5, whereas other pans need to be on 7 or 8. **YOU'RE SETTINGS MAY DIFFER!! EVERY STOVETOP CAN PRODUCE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF HEAT!!** I have used everything from cheap ceramic-coated non-stick to very expensive (and overpriced, if you ask me) PROFESSIONAL stainless steel cookware, and nothing I have used in the past can even begin to compare with the quality of this series of pots and pans by T-Fal. Not to mention, the price on this series is outstanding, and i would easily pay double for them if I had to, and they are definitely worth it!. I have repeatedly, and continue to recommend these to ANYONE looking for pots/pans or having a problem with sticking food. Now, I am not a professional chef, and I do not consider myself to be, but I do cook with multiple pots/pans a lot, and these have made cooking a much better experience for me, and cleanup is much simpler (no soaking to get the stuck-on crud off!).

UPDATE (May 2017): After a little over 2 years, the non-stick surface finally lost it's non-stick properties. Part of that was due to the fact that my wife loved this pan so much, she used it all the time for everything, and non-stick pans will last longer if you only use them for applications where you really need a non-stick surface. NO non-stick surfaces last forever, however, which is why I think it's silly to spend a fortune on a non-stick pan. Of all the non-stick skillets I've tried (including some of the expensive ones) T-fal has the best non-stick surface. Some notes, though. This pan did exhibit the "hump" in the middle of the cooking surface, but I still say the constant belly-aching over this is way overstated. It never affected the ability to cook anything I wanted to. If anything runs towards the edge, just give it a quick swirl – problem solved. It made great, thin omelets, even with the "hump, until the non-stick surface wore out. However, this pan did warp. Just enough that it wouldn't lie perfectly flat on a ceramic cooktop. I think it had something to do with the construction. Although it conducts heat evenly, this is not a heavy duty pan. The stainless steel bottom is a thin disk mated to an aluminum body, which is different than more expensive pans that sandwich an aluminum disk between layers of stainless steel. The two metals expand and contract at different rates, so I think warping is inevitable with this design. Because of that, I opted for the Ultimate Anodized version of this pan for its replacement, which features solid anodized aluminum construction. Same non-stick surface. Same handle. I've been very happy with it. If you have an induction cook-top, then this Professional version is your only option. It's a good pan. Just don't overheat it and maybe avoid super hot dishwasher cycles to make it last longer. (May, 2014) It's still pretty much brand new. So I can't comment on its durability, yet. The build quality is fine. I prefer a slightly longer handle and ones with the slip-on silicone sleeves, but it's fine. This pan is oven-safe, but only at less than 400 degrees. But this pan is not made for super-hot cooking - no non-stick pans are. It's not a super heavy pan, but it's not super thin like so many cheap ones. But the purpose is to quickly heat things up, and it does so evenly. Mine did not exhibit the "bow" that some complain about. Even if it does bow slightly over time and the oil runs to the sides, I'm not concerned. With a non-stick skillet, you are adding fat strictly for flavor. A quick swirl is all that's necessary when you add the food. (Note: If you actually watch ATK like I do, you would see that their skillet actually DOES exhibit the bow and their oil runs to the sides. Doesn't seem to stop them from making great food, so I think the bellyaching over this is a bit overstated) If you are adding more than, say, a tablespoon of oil, you probably need to use a different pan, anyway. You should be using this pan to cook quickly sauté veggies or cook delicate foods like fish and eggs, not to cook burgers and steaks or simmer foods for a long time. Use stainless steel or cast iron for those things. The non-stick surface is excellent. Omelets are a breeze. Fish releases easily and intact while still getting a little color. To make the surface last as long as possible, hand washing is best, and cleanup is easy. This is more than I've spent on a non-stick skillet in the past - I usually just buy inexpensive commercial non-stick pans from restaurant supply companies. But the America's Test Kitchen tests and reviews seem to suggest that this one will put up with a little more abuse and retain it's excellent non-stick properties longer than most. I can't comment on that yet, but I haven't seen the non-stick properties of any of these skillets last longer than a year - or two, at best. Dings and scratches are normal wear-and-tear, unless you really baby these things, - always hand wash them, always use soft utensils (wood and silicone are best - hard plastic can still scratch the surface), and store them in a way that the non-stick surface never contacts any other surfaces. This skillet does the types of cooking it was made for extremely well. That's why you should buy it.

I deliberately waited for a while to write a review on this pan so I can review about its durability. It is now eight months since I've been using it and I use it regularly. I am someone who cooks regularly and am comfortable with making recipes that are elaborate and time-consuming. I make traditional American recipes but I also cook French, Indian and to an extent Mexican food all of which require durable pans. As an avid cook, I also must admit I'm harsh with my utensils so the pans I had purchased from the run-of-the-mill brands usually looked quite used or scratched by 8 months. I decided to purchase this pan because I desperately needed a nice pan but also I have a bias towards this brand T-Fal (or TeFal) since the brand is French and so am I. I also of course read all the raving reviews here on Amazon but had a hard time believing that a pan so good would be so cheap. I have payed five times more for pans in brick and mortar stores for a lot less quality. During the last 8 months, I have done everything under the sun that you would expect to do with a pan; sauté, fry, boil, re-heat, slow heat etc. I have cooked hard vegetables (like carrots), soft veggies (like kale), fruits, all kinds of meat and lentils. Some of my cooking which is normally extremely demanding on the average pan takes very little toll on this one. This pan really IS non-stick. I have REALLY deep fried chicken Southern style yet all the scrapings came off with almost no muscle power. Both the pan and the lid are completely unaffected by my ratty old dishwasher which could use a replacement. The thermo-spot heat indicator is an added bonus for me. Now I don't have to play guessing games anymore on when the oil is preheated enough to sauté or fry items. However the only caveat is the scratch-resistant part. Yes, compared to the run-of-the-mill pan, this pan holds up well against scratches but it is not 100% scratch-proof. There were couples of occasions that I can remember where I cleaned the pan in a jiffy with a wire brush which caused a dinger on the pan (which you can clearly see in the picture). So definitely don't expect this to be fully immune against scratching from metal. But other than that, this pan has held up really well to my use of the pan and has become my favorite pan of all. I find myself always picking this pan from the rest when I'm cooking. I like when a kitchen utensil is functional but I like it even more when the utensil is also hassle-free cleaning because while I love cooking, I hate the aftermath cleaning part. So in that regards, this pan is also great because it requires minimal effort to get it looking sparkly again. For the price I paid, I'm extremely pleased with the quality and durability of this pan and recommend it to anyone who needs pans on the daily. I'm attaching pictures of the pan from when I received it (that's the picture with the T-Fal booklet), during various cooking processes and one taken 8 months after use. I hope my review was helpful.

Great pan for the price. This is the 3rd T-Fal pan I've owned. Seems a bit thinner than my last purchase of the same model, but works well.

Well constructed and absolutely non-stick. Recommended

This was an affordable pan revommended by America’s Test kitchen. However it doubled in price since the first one I bought. That said I do notice improved quality in the handle, and thr nonstick, so there is a digference. The finish hold up it’s oven safe to 450, and cleans quickly. It is holding up with use. I only use wood or silicone untensiles in it so idk beyond that, the size is large enough to sear my trurkey breast on a 12-14 lb turkey and that’s what I wanted. As an every day pan it sautes and browns and has good versitility in my micro sized kitchen. I uses a proctive piece while storing it at the bottom of the pans/bowls stack, that keeps it frim damage. All in all it’s my most used pan all around.

Had these pots for a year and a half now and they still look the same that they did. I don’t cook every night but I do cook enough that they shouldn’t look brand new but they still do. There’s not any scratches on the pans and they’re very easy to clean.

Back in the early 90's I had my first experience with T-Fal. At that time, for whatever marketing reason, I thought of T-Fal as some lesser brand of cookware. I like expensive brand name cookware as much as the next person, but, when I asked a friend what they wanted for a bday present, they said a set of T-Fal. Ok, well, I'd have bought you AllClad if you'd have asked, but if that's what you want. After paying a little bit of nothing, then seeing the stuff in person, I thought, wow, I am gonna get another set for myself. This is nice stuff. So I did. And, with it being inexpensive and all, I used it really hard, like I didn't care if I had to replace it. I also overheated my 10" skillet about as often as a pan can possibly be overheated. Now, I'll admit, after almost 20 years, the non-stick coating in several of the pans is not very non-stick any more. But, none of it is missing! No holes in the surface and all that stuff in my food. In spite of the insane temps I've used the pans at, none of them have warped even a little bit. They are as flat as a pancake. I feel bad getting rid of my old trusty 10" skillet, but, its replacement is here. I bought the 8" thinking it would be a nice omelet pan but in truth, it's a bit too small for that. Nice pan, but, too small. My 8" skillet didn't seem to work real well as an egg pan when I first got it. Eggs seemed to stick pretty good, and clearly I expected better. After frying something in it using coconut oil, it immediately became the non-stick pan I thought it would be. This new 10" pan I broke in by boiling a shallow pool of water, then pouring that out and "seasoning" the pan with a good rub of coconut oil while over the heat. My first French omelet from this pan slid around like it was on an air cushion. Wonderful. This pan feels like a nicer quality pan than my 19 year old one. Though that one still looks nice, the balance of this one is nicer and the handle feels more sturdy. Not that it needed to be since that one isn't loose now. This one is also oven safe while the old one was not. The aluminum on the bottom of this is uncoated, where the old one I had was enameled. I use gas, and that one has needed the black crud cleaned off many times in the past. It cleans right up with ez-off, and I expect this one to also. Overall, I'd say these are the nicest non-stick pan you can get at any price. Cooks Illustrated seems to feel the same way. When you hold this pan in your hand, it'll feel like a pan of 5x the price. And, if it lasts like my last one, it's worth 5x the price. If you're a person who loves quality cookware, consider putting a few pieces of T-Fal in your collection. It'll fit right in with others you spent a mortgage payment on. PS. Their electric teakettle is amazing too.

We are extremely happy with this pan set. Great value and great pans

サイズをちゃんと見なかった私のせいですが、価格と大きさを考えると、コスパは悪いです。

Me gustó mucho el aluminio es grueso lo cual distribuye mejor el calor y el hard titanium es muy bueno da una perfecta antiadherencia, no se le pega nada y fácil de lavar,si sigue uno las instrucciones dura muchos años

La batería es muy buena, el detalle del que ya había visto en otras reseñas es que la olla más pequeña no la detecta la estufa de inducción ni el sartén para huevo, aunque de ese artículo si viene la advertencia en la descripción, y no vienen caja de tfal venía en una caja de cartón normal, me dio desconfianza pero al final no la devolví y a salido muy buena

The seller klaims that this product is compatible with induction stovetop. But it's not, so I have to return it
