I had a cheap set from W@$%^*)t and I moved into a place with gas. When I had electric i would lean the utensils against the trying pan. I leaned the utensils against the frying pan against the gas stove and it melted all the way through. I got this set and it does not happen at all even on high gas. After removing them against the frying pan its slightly warm to the touch, but no melting at all.

I got this set to go with my new Calphalon Contemporary Non-Stick pans I bought on Amazon, to protect my investment. These utensils are very heavy duty, but they're made from Nylon so that they do not scratch the non-stick surfaces of your skillets and pots. I've gotten other nylon utensils in the past and they were flimsy. But these are really solid and sturdy and work excellent. The handles do not bend or flex under pressure.

I highly recommend these to anyone that has non-stick cookware. You will nt be disapointed!
