Rachael Ray Cucina 12 Piece Nonstick Cookware Set, Gray with Agave Blue Handles

My first thought when receiving these pots and pans was that they wouldn't be as good of a quality as my Farberware sets that I have purchased in the past. I will start off by saying I was wrong. Unboxing I was pleasantly surprised at how durable they felt. They had some weight to them but not enough to make them too uncomfortable to handle with one hand while moving them around. First thing I noticed that I really enjoyed was the handles. They are rubberized and make gripping much easier. I have never had a set that had anything but smooth handles and this makes things like holding the pot to drain out water especially easy. Color was a light almost bronze/brown color on the inside which was aesthetically pleasing. The coating on the inside had a slight shimmer to it that I noticed. Not that it matters but they were attractive, nice set to have especially with the holidays coming up. The glass lids are heavy and fit well onto the pots and pans. They feel durable and like they wouldn't shatter if dropped by accident. Now beside all that the real test was obviously cooking. I always test my pots and pans out by making eggs. I notice that they stick a lot on most sets I've used. With this set I was very pleasantly surprised how evenly the eggs cooked and how easy they were to move around the pan with very minimal sticking. When using the spatula to move them around they were just gliding across the pan and didn't have a problem moving them or flipping them or with sticking. Overall I was more pleased with the product than I had anticipated. Owning these has definitely made me more inclined to try other rachel ray products if they're all made as well.

I highly recommend Rachel Ray's cookware. After receiving the cookware, I decide to cook a full course meal for my family just using this cookware. It definitely meets my expectations. The cookware is nonstick, so I didn't have to use a lot of oil to keep anything from sticking. I used the large skillet to make my daughter a grill cheese sandwich and it brown beautifully without having to use butter. I also used the spatula that came with the set. I used the large pot in the oven to bake a roast, and the handles did not melt. I also love the orange color of the handles. If you are in search of new cookware, look no further. It's worth it! I have no complaints about it.
