HIGH quality cookware for a midrange price
I have MANY good things to say about the Zwilling Truclad pots & pans sets. Having burnt the bottoms right off of a few cheapo pots (partyly the cheap pots fault, partly my inclination to the highest heat settings, something I'm learning not to do....) I knew I wanted a fully clad pot and my husband insisted I get a GOOD set this time. If you're new to pots & pans research (and I did a TON of it before settling on this line) I'll tell you that full lined means that the conductive metal (in this case aluminum) goes all the way up the sides of the pot sandwiched between stainless steel (for looks & in many people opinions health). You'll often hear about a heavy base being an important feature in cookware - which it is - but this takes it further so it's ALL AROUND for better heat control. The handles are extremely comfortable (compare to All Clad for example where the u-shaped handles dug into the palm of my hand) with just a bit of a dip where your thumb can rest. They are also shaped...
Amazing cookware!
If you want All Clad quality and not the All Clad price, I highly recommend this. Upon reviews, I had purchased Cuisinart Multi-Pro and the French Classic line. I went through 2 sets of each because they came in damaged. Although aesthetically beautiful, they are not well made. Some had dents and scratches. The lids came with metal shavings still on them. The French line says stay cool handles and they do NOT stay cool! I washed one pan and didn't dry it right away and it had rust spots on the bottom the next morning. So, I researched again and found these. The Tru Clad still uses 18/10 stainless steel. This cookware is substantial! It heats evenly and quickly and you truly only have to use low heat. The handles are extremely comfortable and stay cool to the touch. The handles on the lids stay cool as well. When I took them out of the box, not a single scratch or dent. Beautiful. I cooked eggs, yes, eggs right off the bat and they did not stick! I love to be creative...

I did a lot of research before purchasing this 10-piece cookware set. In fact I even purchased another set that didn't work with my induction cooktop. I ended up purchasing this at Bed Bath and Beyond for $299 less 20% for my coupon. J Henkel is running a promotion so when you purchase this set, you also receive one of their 4 piece steak knife sets as a bonus.
These pots and pans are beautiful. They are substantial but not so heavy that they are uncomfortable to pick up. The handles stay cook when in use. There is even scored areas inside the sides of the pots and pans that tell you measurements. They clean up beautifully. In my research I noticed that some induction ready cookware made a hissing sound. This is not noticed with this set by me. I was considered All Clad but frankly, didn't see the necessity in spending twice as much. I am very satisfied with this cookware and highly recommend it.
