Cuisinart 17-Piece Cookware Set, Chef's Classic Steel Collection 77-17N

We upgraded our old tephlon pans and couldn't be happier. Cuisinart is a brand you can trust and perform beautifully. They are heavy bottom pans that conduct heat well, wash well and don't scratch. Very high quality, Buy them!!

As someone who loves to cook and has been on the hunt for the perfect cookware set, I am absolutely thrilled with the Cuisinart Cookware Set. This set has completely transformed my kitchen experience, and I can confidently say it's a fantastic choice for both beginners and experienced chefs alike. Unmatched Quality and Durability The first thing that stands out about this cookware set is its exceptional build quality. Made with 18/10 stainless steel, these pots and pans feel incredibly solid and well-made. They offer both strength and durability, and I've already noticed a significant improvement in how they conduct heat evenly. The triple-ply construction (with an aluminum core) ensures that heat is distributed quickly and uniformly, which makes cooking faster and more efficient. There’s no hot spot or uneven cooking, whether I’m simmering sauces or searing meats. Comprehensive 17-Piece Set This set comes with everything you need to tackle any cooking task. The 17 pieces include a wide variety of saucepans, skillets, sauté pans, stockpots, and a steamer insert, which means I’m equipped for almost anything, from making delicate sauces to preparing hearty stews. Each piece in the set is highly functional, and the fact that it comes with multiple lid sizes adds a level of convenience that makes cooking even easier. I love that the lids are clear, which allows me to monitor my cooking without having to remove the lid and lose heat. Easy-to-Handle and Versatile One of the standout features of this cookware set is the ergonomic, riveted handles. They are designed to stay cool on the stovetop, which means I never have to worry about burning my hands when I’m stirring or moving a pan. The handles also feel secure and sturdy, providing a confident grip, even when I’m transferring a heavy pot or pan from stovetop to oven. Additionally, the cookware is oven-safe up to 500°F, which is perfect for dishes that require transitioning from stovetop to oven. This versatility makes it easy to cook a wide range of meals without needing separate cookware. I’ve baked chicken, roasted vegetables, and made frittatas all in the same pans with no issues whatsoever. The non-reactive interior ensures that food won’t interact with the material, so I don’t have to worry about acidic foods like tomatoes affecting the flavor. Whether I’m making a tangy marinara sauce or a rich, creamy risotto, the flavors stay pure and unaffected. Effortless Cleaning Cleaning this cookware set is a breeze. The stainless steel surface resists food sticking, and most messes simply wipe off with a gentle scrub. The pans are also dishwasher-safe, though I usually hand wash them to maintain their appearance. I’ve found that they clean up quickly and easily, which makes post-cooking cleanup less of a chore. If you’re in the market for high-quality cookware that will last for years, handle a wide variety of cooking tasks, and look great on your stovetop, I cannot recommend this set highly enough. It’s truly a fantastic investment for anyone who values great cooking tools!

THESE TAKE SPECIAL CLEANING. I have no problem with food sticking, they look and feel awesome, nice and heavy gauge metal. What looks like water stains are left after cleaning. They do not scrub out unless you use Bar Keepers cleanser when cleaning or vinegar after cleaning. gave it a 5 hoping others will see input to make a decision that works for them.

This is my first stainless steel pan set, and I chose this brand because it came recommended from a family member. I do love that my food does not stick to the pan, as long as you follow proper heating instructions. I was sad that the pan did discolor from cooking, even though I tried all the tricks to get the coloring out of the pan that was caused by the oil I used. My biggest complaint about this pan set is the handles. The top of the handles are indented which makes it very uncomfortable to hold. This could be a me and it might not affect others. I have extremely small hands and I'm used to my panhandles having a rounded top. Overall I would recommend these pans

Don’t like how things stick even with oil in pans. Hard to get clean don’t recommend them.

We tried really hard to like these. We watched videos on how best to use stainless steel. We have induction and wanted to take full advantange with stainless steel pots/pans. I see all of these other positive reviews, and it has just not been our experience. Literally everything sticks. Even when using high heat oil, doing a warming and cooling, cycle, everything sticks and the pans are such a massive pain to clean, requiring soaking and scrubbing. Even pasta will stick to the bottom when boiling to a degree I've never seen. I REALLY want to get my money back but am past the return period. I just no longer have the energy to pretend these are not terrible. I should have given up on day one. It's a no from me...

I am very happy with this purchase. Sturdy cookware and easy to clean. It cooks evenly. The lids fit nicely. This set has a good variety of sizes of pots and pans. I highly recommend.

I am in LOVE with these pots and pans. Nothing sticks. Cleans easy. Heats evenly. The reason I chose these is because I wanted pots and pans that would be easy to kasher if needed. Even the little measuring markings inside the pots are not recesses. Just printed on there. So these would be super easy to kasher when needed.
