HOMICHEF 14-Piece Nickel Free Stainless Steel Cookware Set - Nickel Free Pots and Pans Set - Non-Toxic, Healthy Induction Cookware

Me and my wife wanted to take steps towards a healthier lifestyle, which included moving away from Teflon coated cookware, leading us to purchase Homichef's stainless steel cookware. I'm pleased to say that after 30 days of constant use, these pots and pans are the best we've ever used. Below are the pros and cons me and my wife have settled upon: Pros: Price and quality. This cookware set looks and feels great! We were slightly discouraged when shopping for stainless steel cookware sets as some of them can be quite expensive. Homichef has made a product that is priced just right with exceptional quality. This cookware set is going to last a very long time. Look and feel. The cookware's mirror finish is perfect. We've had several comments and questions about the set when friends have come over. Homichef even provides a handful of polish packets to bring out the shine if they ever dull. The handle is also firm, doesn't feel or appear loose and never gets hot to the touch. Stick or non-stick. The pots and pans come with a set or recommended uses and guidelines on how to achieve non-stick cooking. Following these guidelines and suggestions provided have truly shown that these pans can be stick resistant. Any food that gets stuck on the pans can easily be brushed off using water and abdish rag or brush. Utensils. This set comes with stainless steel utensils, including 1 spatula that has a silicon flipper and a stainless steel body. The spatula works great with the exception of using the smaller skillet. The spatula itself is large and may be slight overkill when using the smaller skillet. But overall, the utensils are of a high quality. Cons. None. Takeaway: If you're looking for a stainless steel cookware set, look no further.

I cook 3 meals a day at home; we very rarely eat out. That being said, my pots and pans get a LOT of use, and I expect a lot of them. I've also become very aware of the toxicity of Teflon, so I went on a mission to find a good set of stainless steel. This particular brand was mentioned on a trusted website because it is nickel-free. After reading tons of Amazon reviews, and also seeing that I had 1 month to try them out risk-free and a 6 year warranty on top of that, I decided to purchase this (very affordable) set. Before the set even arrived, I received an email from the company thanking me for my purchase. The email also gave me a rundown on how to properly care for the set in order to get the most out of them. When my set arrived, I was so pleased with how beautiful they are! The set of nickel-free utensils was definitely a perk. I immediately went to work on seasoning them, which took a little time, but was absolutely worth it. The next morning, I did the "scrambled egg test" on my small skillet. It worked like a dream! I preheated the pan on medium heat. When it started getting hot, I turned the burner down to a 4, and swirled a small amount of butter in the pan before adding my (room temp) scrambled eggs. They cooked quickly, and nothing stuck to the pan! After removing the eggs, I immediately washed the pan with only water and a wash cloth, dried with a towel, and put it away. I've done that several times now, and it still works great. Same goes for the pots. They cook and clean up like a dream. I am so glad I went with this set! Safe and effective!

We were looking to replace some ageing cookware when the opportunity to test and review this Homi-Chef stainless set with utensils. The finish and overall appearance of the set is quite good at this price point. The choice of small, medium and larger sauce pans is helpful, as are the two skillets, it was also a bonus to have the addional utensils, which were a good quality addition to our cooking gadget drawers. We followed the instructions provided to season the new cookware, and it went well. Both skillets cooked well on the lower recommended heat settings, and the food we cooked did not stick, and clean-up was very easy. The care instructions provided are very good and I recommend you follow those closely. Cooking with stainless is so much different than using other types of cookware. We have several other Homi-Chef cookware items and they have held up well. We do cook quite a bit, and usually prepare larger amounts of food due to our family size. One concern I do have with the sauce pots is the time that it takes to boil a liquid. Using the recommended low heat settings a "4" on our electric range, it took 45 minutes to bring 2 quarts to a boil. This presents a challenge when cooking multiple items on the stove top and trying to coordinate finish times. I did finally have to turn up the heat to about "7" to get the water to a rolling boil. I have another Homi-Chef sauce pan that does heat much quicker. According to the care instructions, using higher heat can warp and damage the cookware, so I am not sure how to address this issue. We used the larger sauce pot to cook down green beans with salt pork, so the low heat and long cooking time yielded some very tasty beans. It has been a concern we have had cooking beans in a non-stick pot, usually simmering for 6+ hours. Otherwise I do recommend this set perhaps as a entry level set for a single or couple. Stainless cookware can be expensive when you get to the higher end professional quality items. It would be a good idea to start with something like this set as you learn the methods of taking full advantage of healthy cooking with stainless, and just how good food can taste when properly prepared with stainless cookware. Also, since we do usually cook larger amounts of food, this set would be best suited for a single or small family. I have been pleased with the Homi-Chef cookware that I do own and sincerely recommend that you give their products a try. Happy Cooking!

I was hesitant to purchase this cookware set based on some of the negative reviews but I am glad I took the chance. The set is beautiful. I love these. Do Not listen to the negative reviews. these are really good set and at an affordable price point.

Love my new cookware set! This Homichef set is awesome—great quality at an amazing price. The bottom of the cookware is sturdy, attractive, stays flat on the stove, and distributes heat evenly. The handles are simple and comfortable to use. Overall, I’m extremely satisfied.

I washed and seasoned the pans (follwed the the brochure exactly)and yet when i just boiled potatoes for my first time using the pot on medium low heat too (per instructions) i went to get out the potatoes and noticed the bottom had what i thought were silver stainless steel dots but after wiping them now it seems to be have turned white from silver (seemingly corroding after the very first use?) with permanent stains on it from the potatoes. I'm now afraid to eat the potatoes since something silver seemed to have come off of the pans and is now worn away and i can not het rid of it...& I am beyond disappointed because I spent 100 bucks in this economy because I need nickle free cookware but it failed first try...I should be able to at least boil potatoes, this is ridiculous!

**I did not include a picture of each piece** Visually, this is gorgeous. It feels solid and well-made but still lightweight and which is nice.I especially love the lids because they are pretty they are very easy to hold onto to pick up. The cooking utensils it comes with are really nice as well. I’m a little worried to use them with the pots and pans as I’m afraid it will scratch, but the paperwork included with the set says it’s ok to use them with the Homichef pots and pans. I have a little staining in my frying pan from heating up butter, but I chose not to season the pans which may be why. I didn’t want to season them as it says that once you do season, you should not wash with soap and water. I always want to wash with soap and water; therefore, I chose not to season them. Other than the little staining, they all have been wonderful to cook in and have been easy to clean as well. I have the Homichef 1.75 qt sauce pan and noticed that it feels heavier than the 2.5 qt saucepan in this set. So these are possibly lighter than others that they have, but they still feel really nice, and I like the lids better on these pots and pans than the other one I have. The only critique I really have is that I wish the size was engraved on the bottom of all of the pots and pans, or shown on the inside of the pan like my other Homichef saucepan. The set does come with a little checklist which shows the capacity and dimensions of each pot and pan which is helpful and nice, it would just be easier if it was actually engraved on the pots and pans. Overall, I’m very happy with this beautiful set and it’s a great price!

First of all, there is absolutely no need to season stainless steel cookware. I don't understand the instructions telling the purchaser to season the pots. I'm using the pots without any issues of sticking. The lids and utensils all have a problem that is a quality issue. All the utensils have a sharp, unfinished edge to them. Also, the utensils have a handle that has a slot where water can enter when cleaning. If I use them I would possibly have soapy water dripping down into the bowls of the utensils from the handles. Every one of them is like this. And the lids have a knob handle in the center of the glass where water can enter. I washed them and as they were drying I noticed a pool of soapy water in the knob. My husband unscrewed the knobs, dried the water, and put it back together. Now I know I have to be careful when I wash the lids. I would totally return the set if it were not for the fact that I've switched to silicone utensils to solve my need to get away from nickel, and I will just wash the lids carefully so no water gets into that part of the lid. Buy this set for the pots, knowing the lids need special care when cleaning. And toss the utensils. You will love the pots.

Mi sono trovata bene con queste pentole nichel free, quella grande poi per la pasta o i brodi mi piace un sacco consiglio l'acquisto.

No better deal! This is a kitchen game changer 😁

I love my Chef 14 piece nickel free stainless steel cookware great to use but remember to season each cookware with oil,easy to use highly recommended
