Rachael Ray 12-Piece Cucina Nonstick Pots and Pans Set, Cookware, Blue

This set of cookware is by far the best set of cookware I have ever used. I am a stay at home wife and mother of 2. I used this cookware the very first night it arrived. Absolutely NOTHING sticks or burns in this cookware. And, the design of the large pot kept the boiling water from boiling over when cooking pasta. The lids are a perfect fit. The handles on both the cookware and the lids always remain cool throughout the cooking process. I absolutely love the deep skillet with the lid for cooking my pasta sauces and meats. No more sauce splatters on my stove top! And, the utensils are awesome. I was a little skeptical of these at first, especially the spatula. I thought these would just be more utensils to get lost in my drawer due to being flimsy. Boy, was I wrong. These are very durable. And, the spatula, well, it makes my life so much easier flipping pancakes and French toast for my kids. No more messed up pancakes that slide off my spatula anymore. And, the ease of cleaning these. So easy to wash and dry. No scrubbing necessary. And, last, but certainly not least, the color. I was pleasantly surprised. They are more of a brown with a hint of orange rather than the bright orange I was expecting. This cookware is a wonderful addition to my kitchen and will be used for years to come!

This set of cookware by Rachael Ray is a BIG hit. Generally non-stick is not my favorite w/ the exception it's really a breeze to clean. Remember as well to only use utensils appropriate to non-stick cookware. The interior cleans extremely well (even after cooking borscht)-no...zero staining. Impressive. Exterior comes clean quite well. Even the handle & pan lid grips (silicone-?) came out showroom new. Whether omelettes or pan-heating corn tortillas it was quick, effective and easy cleaning. Here's the best feature (in my book), universal pan lids. Basically unheard of. Even for the larger skillet the lids from the larger pots/dutch oven fit.. not tight, but I could steam veggies along the way while cooking other things. Brilliant team that created this. Color choices were amazing. I wanted this option, as I am quite certain alot of you as well want that kind of choice. Coordinate and appreciate...guests were amazed. For years I've had products by RR, her lines are vast and growing. Consider too that numerous makes/makers are on the same level and yet Ray's cookware, bakeware & dinnerware are generally a fraction of the cost. in addition, the manual and instructions enclosed are straight-on, clear and concise about usage & upkeep. Avid cook is tremendously pleased. Enjoy.
