Kitchen Reviews

I bought this set almost a year ago, after having used a set of old-fashioned pots and pans for many years. These are a delight to use! Sunny side up eggs, which always stuck in the old pan and were often tough and rubbery, come out tender and I love just sliding them out of the pan onto the plate. I don't even have to use a spatula to loosen them. Even for food that doesn't slide out, clean up is really easy.

I did take the time to not just read, but actually learn the manufacturer's instructions for taking care of them and follow them to a T. (My Dad taught me that if I take care of my tools, they'll take care of me.) So they still look and work like new.

I enjoy cooking much more now that I don't have to worry about sticking. I'm more adventurous, because I know that even if the food doesn't turn out great, at least it won't be a hassle to clean.

I have spent thousands of dollar's, On Meyers cookware everthing from KitchenAid, Anolon, Prestige, Faberware, & Circulan, just to name a few. Though Meyers does manufacture very high quality pots & pans and I would recommend them to anyone it's just sad that if you have any problem with them, under warranty, you have to go throught the chain of command, that never gets you anywhere, even if you want to speak with upper management about the rudeness of the customer service department. Their customer service department employees are always very rude and snotty and they act like they are doing you a favor to even talk to you about their products. Don't get me wrong they do make good cookware, probably the best, but you as the consumer are at the mercy of their customer service and their descision or your fait on wheather your life time warranty is honored or not.

I don't write many reviews, but I am impressed enough with this set to offer nearly unconditional recommendation.

For the everyday cook who wants a set that is easy to clean, heats evenly and stands up to daily use, this set is what you want. Super heavy cast anodized aluminum, big glass lids, a bit heavy but thats exactly what you want in tough cookware you use every day. Perfect for families with kids.

The non-stick holds up very well on interior *and* exterior. The bottom is not coated so that heat from burner will not damage non-stick coating. The 5 quart pan is perfect for large skillet dinners. After 6 months daily use using mostly non-stick tools, hardly a scratch inside or out.

You'll use less oil, clean up with water. If you enjoy cooking fresh food every day give them a try. I bought mine at local store with bonus offer of a big rectangular grill for $299. The grill is also great, heats evenly, no hot or cold spots when positioned over two burners, perfect for pancakes.

We don't put pots in dishwasher (so easy to clean by hand), but sometimes lids go in dishwasher and they haven't suffered any damage so far. We have gas stove, but I doubt cooking surface will change performance.

Have a small kitchen so I hang some pots from black metal pot rack/ shelf combo I got from Pier 1. They look great there and are within easy reach.

I ordered and am now returning this set if utensils. My wife has a set of Analon Professional cookware, so I thought these would be a nice accessory. When the box arrived, it says FREE with any purchase of Analon over $150, so it looks really cheesy as a gift. The tools themselves look to be low quality and are rather small. After receiving this set, I did a more thorough search for Ananlon utensils and found their "Sure Grip" line at Linens N Things. They are $10 per piece, so about double the price, but at least triple the quality. I think she'll love the new ones!
