Editorial Reviews and Product Descriptions

Amazon.com Review

Farberware’s Classic cookware is aptly named for its traditional style that complements any kitchen decor. This 9-piece set offers a grouping of essential pans at a great value. The set includes 1-quart and 2-quart covered saucepans, 8-inch and 10-inch nonstick skillets, a 5-quart covered Dutch oven, and an extra straining lid that locks onto the Dutch oven. The straining lid has two holes sizes; the larger is ideal for draining lasagna noodles, corn on the cob, or potatoes while the smaller holes are better for draining angel hair pasta or rice.

Farberware Classic cookware is constructed of gleaming 18/10 stainless steel for a timeless appearance and has an aluminum disk encapsulated in the base of each pan to spread heat evenly without hot spots. Phenolic plastic handles stay cool on the stovetop and are oven-safe to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. This cookware is dishwasher-safe and is covered by a lifetime limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

After using a mish-mash of various pots, pans and lids for several years, I finally decided to take the plunge and buy one quality set. I read several reviews and shopped in the stores, checking all kinds of different brands. It finally dawned on me that my own mother has had this set of pots and pans for many, many years and I've always admired them. Not surprisingly, I've really enjoyed using this whole set for everyday cooking. (The only suggestion I have is to purchase a separate 12-inch pan/lid, which is not included in this set and really is necessary if you're cooking for more than one person.)

I bought this set a couple of weeks ago for my wife. It is not as good as most people claimed here. Today my wife showed me there are quite some spots(stains) inside the small pot at the bottom after only one use. I tried washing it again and again and the spots just would not go away. The sauce pan also scratched my flat top stove (well, for this I can probably blame my stove is too delicate, but my old pan did not have such a problem).

I have been on move every 3 to 6 months. I used to buy $30 cookware from walmart. They are chep and not usable with in 3 months time. This time I tried Farberware 9 piece set. Wow! it's great set for $35. I can keep this set for long time. It has beautiful stainless steel look, heat spreads evenly.

Look no further just go ahead and buy it, you will be surprised to see quality kitchen ware for such a low price. It's great starter set.

Only caveat I can see is, holding the handles may not be comfortable due to it's curved handle design.
