I love my new cookware set. So bright and cheery. I think they are very well made and they are so easily cleaned. The price was great and no shipping cost. Can't beat that! My dutch oven did have just a tiny bit of damage on the top rim but I chose not to return it for another as it is very small and in no way affects its usability. I would highly recommend this cookware set.

I have a glass stove top and so far I have had no problem, I have never put them on high heat though not even when I boil water 8 or med high has brought it to a boil every time. I was hesitant to get these because of reviews that I read about the glass top stoves but I am so glad that I did they are great! eggs never stick,Omelets are a dream to make, My husband loves omelets and in the past has thrown a skillet or two after trying to turn them and it not working but with these when you pick up the skillet and move in a circular motion the egg slides around when ready to flip. I love these and they have passed the husband test he loves them also. We have no complaints so far to date but its only been 3 months I will write more in a couple of months to let you know how they the wear and tear is.

this the absolute best pot set i have ever own it does the job and clean up is a breeze

I bought these pans a little over a month ago. I love the color and they cook very well. I have mixed feelings about the lids simply because I am used to glass lids and being able to see into the pot w/o opening the lid. Other then that I'm good.

I bought the 12 inch skillet just like this set to try it out and used it for 2 months - and loved it - before ordering this set. I was SO looking forward to it (except for the stainless lids). The first (and only) time I cooked in the large pot, I boiled some ribs in salt, pepper and garlic. It boiled over the sides and actually damaged the finish !! I cleaned and cleaned, but there was a permanent stripe down the sides where the liquid ran over. The inside and exterior bottom were a breeze to clean, but not the red enamel. I sent mine back and ordered the black anodized set. Not nearly as pretty, but very durable and easy to keep looking good.

These pots are the best quality! They will last a lifetime. Several people in my family own more than one set of these pots. You will not be disappointed.

I purchased this product a little over a year ago. It cooks well, looks beautiful. But, after repeated use, the red turns to an off-pink. KitchenAid support doesn't offer any suggestions for bringing the pans back to the original color. Overall, its a good product. Just don't purchase it in a colored version.

I've had this set for about a month now. I replaced my OLD T-Fal with this set, and am very happy that I went with Kitchenaid. This particular set has a perfect variety of sizes. No need to buy separate pieces unless you need a specialty piece. The non-stick surface is really non-stick and cleans up easily. The handles are comfortable and are cool to the touch when cooking. The only drawback I have encountered is that they are not supposed to be washed in the dishwasher. However, they clean up so easy, it only takes a few minutes to clean, so that really hasn't been an issue like I thought it would be. Shop around for price. I got this set for $130, including shipping.

I am very happy with them.They were delivered very fast and they are all that was described.The non stick really works.They clean up beautifully.

Do not buy these products if you have a flattop stove. You can't turn yourstove top over medium heat or else the pot melts onto your cooktop ruining your stove! They don't tell you that the ceramic will melt at too high a temp and bond to your cooktop so beware!! It seems like the chance of this happening would be low, no, I put a pot onto boil med-high and the pot started to fuse to my cooktop. I smelt the burning but it still left some pot residue on one of the burners...Yuck. Probably great for a gas stove

This was a great price on this set of cookware. I have been looking at these in stores and online and this was the best price I found. I am very pleased with the product. Love my kitchenaid.

I bought this cookware set for my daughter for Christmas, and she really loves them! They were on special when I purchased them, so they were also a great deal! Thanks Amazon!

I PURCHASED THIS SET AS A GIFT FOR MY SON. HE IS VERY HAPPY WITH IT. I AM PLEASED WITH THE PRICE.

I love my new cookware! I have some Circulon cookware which was much more expensive but I like the Kitchenaid much better. I don't like the extra heavy weight of the Circulon and some others as the Kitchenaid is much easier to handle and heats up much faster. It took water forever to come to a boil in my so called "better" cookware. Many people have posted that they were not happy with the Kitchenaid product because it couldn't be put in the dishwasher. I suggest a little research on the types of cookware out there before you buy. I think you will find all the "pretty" enameled type cookware is not dishwasher safe. It will dull the shiny colored finish. Also the many types of coated inner surfaces are not dishwasher safe as it is too harsh on the coatings. This is true of most if not all of the upper level cookware that I checked into (all enameled, hard anodized, etc.). Keep in mind that you can put this stuff in the dishwasher, it just will not last as long or look as good. You can choose ease of cleaning or superior cooking performance. I for one was happy to trash my uncoated ugly silver cookware that I was able to put in the dishwasher for this great looking, easy cooking product. It's like a Yugo compared to a Maserati...bet you'd take time to hand wash and wax your Maserati! Enjoy!

I CANNOT believe the incredible price I got on this set. It is SO pretty, matches the mixer perfectly and is very high quality. The silicone handles are comfortable and make it easy to use safely in the oven too, not just on the stovetop. I am certain, based on my research, that the retail originally was NOT as high as this listing says, but even so, I got the set for $89, and that is a steal. I highly recommend this set.

This was a really great deal. Seen another set minus the 3qt. pot for $144 on sale at a place known for having the lowest prices. I am really happy and my husband is really proud of the job I did finding great cookware at an unbelievable price. Thanks so much Amazon!

I like this set bought my kids a set they enjoy them to. had them for a year no problems yet.

I hate cooking (would not go near a kitchen if bribed by money or a fine man) but my mom loves it! Soooo after years of hearing complain about her worn down pans and pots; I gave her this set. The red color is nice; it give the kitchens a nice decorative red glow; and my mom is thankful for the non stick quality.

This set is the best set of cookware that I have owned. This set provides everything you would want and they are very durable. The lids are of excellent quality as with everything in the set. I highly recommend this set for the on-sale price.

Oh my gosh, I love my new cookware! It cleans up very easily, so I don't mind at all that I can't put it in the dishwasher. It is a great set, and I love the variety of the set. Plus getting it on a one day special with free shipping for $89.99...what a deal!

I bought this set over a year ago. After reading several negative reviews, I decided to give it some time before writing a review. No problems whatsoever! I'll address the complaints I've read-not dishwasher safe...it's faster to wash them by hand because the food rolls right out, no scrubbing required. Not for use on glass cooktop...I have gas (fine print read, check)
Even heating, handles that don't burn, I only use silicone utensils anyway so no scratches. Perfect set of nice inexpensive pots and pans! get some

These pots and pans come highly recommended by me and my family. The set offers desired features in a virtually complete set. A couple of the lids are interchangeable, which is very nice. I got this set over a year ago and am still very happy with them.

Pros:
They are gorgeous.
Wash very easily. The Teflon inside makes is very easy, just a little soap and warm water.
They stand the test of time, and if they don't they come with the Kitchen Aid lifetime warranty.
Like I said, I've had them over a year and they look like the exact same condition I bought them in. No nicks or scratches.
They have an even distribution of heat, regardless of how big or small your burners are on your stove. So the food cooks all the way through and at the same time.
The grips on the handles prevent you from getting burned.


Cons:
You must hand wash them (but most people tend to hand wash big pots and pans) they are NOT dishwasher safe. Y
You must only use plastic or wooden utensils inside them, otherwise they will scratch. The lids are metal so you have to take the tops off to see how your food's cooking.

If you read the product description and then you buy and use these pots, you will realise that they are *precisely* what their description claims that they are. In addition to that, shipment was fast and delivery was faster. And the color, oh I just love it.

The inner non-stick layer doesn't require *any* greasing of any sort. Every food turns out just perfect! They do, however, take some time to heat up (but that's because of the outer lining physical characteristics... it heats up slowly, and it cools down slowly... it's porcelain, and it works the way it is supposed to be, it's NO FLAW) and some more time to distribute the heat evenly (again it's NO FLAW, it's because of how these pots are anodized between the porcelain and the teflon... timings resemble the one you get while cooking on an electric stove). Also, cleaning is very very easy, since nothing (no-thing) sticks to these pots.

If you don't have the patience that cooking requires stay away from these pots... microwave ovens are a great invention... use one.

LOVE this set. It cooks really evenly and quickly, but is thick enough to not burn things. It isn't dishwasher safe, which seems like a bit of a pain, but these pans clean so easily you're done before you even think you got started! One of the lids from the saucepans also fits on one of the skillets, so there is only one skillet that doesn't have a lid to fit it. The largest skillet holds a ton of food, great for cooking for a lot of people or oversize items (I cook hamsteak in it). Because of the coating on the inside of the pans, food does not stick to it. At all. These pans are fantastic.

I have Kitchenaid mixers, both stand and hand), food processor (which I love), blender, two toasters, knife set, a 12-cup coffeemaker,and a set of cookware all in red!! This is the first Kitchenaid product with which I have not been completely satisfied. When I found this one on sale, I bought it for the 12" skillet. I had planned to give the other pieces as gifts. I was disappointed that the pieces were not as heavy as my other cookware. The 12" skillet "bucked" (raised in the middle) when it was heated. It didn't stay flat on the eye. If I had not already been using the original set, I might have been satisfied with it.

Over the years, I have bought many pot & pan sets. My wife and I decided last year to create a "red Kitchenaid" themed kitchen, and these pots were a welcome addition. This set has exceeded our expectations. We cook with these almost every night. My only gripe is that the set did not come with a 12" pan when I got it. We always hand-wash, never overheat, and always use plastic or wood utensils (no metal!) and the nonstick surface has held up consistently. Not true of some of the other very high priced nonstick cookware we have tried. After a year of continuous use, the red exterior paint is the only thing that has begun to fade. We use a gas stove, so that probably contributes to the fading of the paint. Overall, one of the best sets we have owned and I would recommended this set to anyone. They distribute heat evenly and cook efficiently.

Update: After about a year and a half of constant usage, the teflon started to warp / peel on all of the cookware pieces. I have since retired this set to the local landfill and I am now using a cookware set called BlinQ (found in shopping mall dept. stores) which is stainless steel. The BlinQ set does not offer the nonstick properties that this set had but it seems more heavy gauge. I would still recommend this set.

I just love this set, but buried in the paperwork is a warning that it, like all enameled cookware, is not suitable for use on smoothtop (ceramic/glass) ranges. If the pans overheat (e.g., boil dry), the enamel can melt off and become ONE with the cooktop surface. For my range, that'd be a $400-800 mistake.

I don't THINK the pan-vs.-smoothtop information was readily available in the product description... had I known, I could easily have picked up the very similar hard anodized or stainless versions instead!

For now, I'm paying REALLY close attention while cooking, but I might have to sell these lovely red pans and pick up safer ones.

We ordered these for Christmas. We chose Kitchenaid, since we assumed it was THE brand, and they were going to look great in our kitchen hanging above the island from a rack.
After using them for about 3 months, I am very disappointed in the quality. The bottoms are very thin. I have never burned so much oatmeal in my life. Frying is a pain, since the heat spreads very uneven. Actually, the bottom of the large frying pan is no longer flat, which does not help with good results.
We purchased the matching large sautee pan seperately. It's much heavier, and the cooking results are much better.
Another issue is that on the more frequently used items some of the black color on the bottom has rubbed off, and the red is starting to be banged up. It appreas the finish is not inteded for heavy use.
If you're looking for kitchen decorations, this set is right for you. In case you are planning to do "Gourmet" cooking, do yourself a favor and keep looking.
The rubberized handles have eliminated the need for potholders. The stailess steel lids are great, since we can have them sitting on top of the rack and use them without being concerend about them breaking (most sets seem to come with glass lids).

I'm very happy of having chosen this product! Every single part of the pots and pans is made with the purpose to make cooking a pleasant, safe, and efficent experience. The red color? It's simply awesome!! :-)

Got these when Amazon had the 25 off 125 dollar deal in kitchen and housewares plus free super saving shipping. Compared similar deals at other places that sell kitchenaid. None of them could beat this deal. I use this as my everyday cookware and it has held up fine. I do hand wash all pieces, and try to always use silicon utensils when cooking with them. Love the cool touch silicon handles. Can't say much for kitchenaid brand baking pans and cookie sheets, but all the pans in this set are excellent. The big deep chicken fryer type skillet is my favorite and the one I use most often. I highly recommmend this product for yourself or as a gift.

Love it! Gorgeous to look at. Wonderful to use. Easy clean up. Wish I'd gotten it sooner.

This is a great set. Among other things, you can cook on lower heat settings with it than with cheaper alternatives because these pots and pans do such a good job of distributing heat.

I noticed that someone said these could not be used on glass or ceramic stovetops and I wanted to clarify--if you use high heat (which you're advised not to do in any event), let a pot boil dry, or leave an empty pot on a hot burner, the red enamel can fuse with the top. All you need, then, is some common sense and a trivet, and you don't need to worry about this hazard.

It is also worth noting that the lids are dishwasher safe. Yes, the pots are not, but I have yet to meet a nonstick pot that really was. All the regular rules of nonstick cookware apply--use plastic utensils only, don't cook with your pet bird in the kitchen, et cetera.

All in all, a lovely set sure to last a long time with the right care--and a great bargain.

I received this set for Christmas and I have to say I am EXTREMELY impressed! Nothing sticks to these at all! I am the queen of burning stuff and no matter what I burn in the bottom of these pans, it just comes right off during cleaning. I'm not sure if they should be washed in the dishwasher, but it doesn't matter. They are so easy to clean it's just easier to handwash them. I have never needed to soak them first.
This set is HIGHLY recommended!

The product performs very well. And, the red really adds a great splash of color to my kitchen.

I love the cookware, it is all I expected it to be. Works wonderful on my smooth top range!
