Rachael Ray Brights Hard-Anodized Aluminum Nonstick Cookware Set with Glass Lids, 10-Piece Pot and Pan Set, Gray with Orange Handles

This is my first experience with Rachael Ray cookware. When I first removed the cookware from the set, I first noticed how light weight it was. I then noticed the attractive orange handles they were made and the beautiful clear lids with clear view glass view. It's not high end cookware, but it would be welcome in many or most homes. I used this to cook maggi. It was so perfectly cooked and also i don't see any thing stick to the bottom of the pan. They are made beautifully and perfectly for the use of cooking. I love to cook in Rachael Ray cookware. The food was delicious and tasty whenever i use these product for cooking. I always use to cook dal. Unfortunately, one day I forgot to turn off the stove and i see all mess in my kitchen. I see the dal was totally overcooked and some part of it was sticked to the cookware. That could have resulted in quite a mess with some other types of cookware, but it cleaned up quickly and still looked brand new. What I liked: * The design is very modern and attractive. * The glass lids have a sturdy rim that is designed so food will not be easily trapped * The orange handles are non-slip and easy to grip, and they keep very cool while cooking * The small size pots are very handy, and the 6 quart stock pot is a nice small-size stockpot that I'm finding a much better size for my use. * Cleanup was super easy What I didn't like: * The pots seem to be about half the thickness of most of my other pots and pans. While I don't think they would dent easily if dropped, they don't have a sturdy, well made feel to them. * When compared to my Calphalon, they also do not have the same quality hard anodized finish on the outside. * The nonstick coating doesn't feel as high quality as other brands. So far, so good though! * The pans do not have a thick bottom, and seem to heat unevenly. My food scorched quickly, so cooking time and technique will vary from my other cookware. I think this would make a great starter set for someone just starting out on their own. Despite the few flaws that I noticed , I am enjoying using this cookware and cooking just became a little more fun!

I could hardly make toast when I moved out on my own at 19 and after a year of hamburger helper I started to teach myself to cook. Now 22, I cook every dinner at home for myself and my boyfriend seven days a week and am planning on culinary school in the coming year. This is my first set of decent cookware and I am the happiest chef-in-training ever! The orange handles add beautiful color to my kitchen without being overwhelming. The non-stick coating is absolutely fabulous and has rinsed perfectly after homemade Alfredo sauce, which is notoriously sticky. I wait until they have cooled before rinsing though, as an extra precaution. You want the coating to last as long as possible. They practically wipe clean and the dishwasher-safe feature makes clean-up a dream. All the basic sizes you need are here and I can't wait to purchase some of the speciality pans next. Do make sure to use nylon or bamboo utensils as metal will scratch them. And don't be tempted to use them on high heat because it will ruin the coating for sure. I usually transfer the food to a baking pan if oven time is needed because the handles are only safe to 300 degrees. The lids fit very well too so it really traps the heat. If you need to sear something though, these pans won't work because of the non-stick so I just use an old cast iron for that duty. This is the perfect gift for the aspiring chef in your house. Mine were a birthday present and they're the best gift I've ever recieved. Even after daily use, they're nearly spotless and I love to cook with them more and more every day!

Let me admit up front that I'm not a Rachael Ray fan. My wife loves her; she's not my thing. But I will give her credit for these pots - they're pretty good. I bought a Cuisinart set a few years ago that has since flaked and fallen apart. In replacing some specific pots, I picked up a couple of the Rachael Ray ones on the recommendation of a friend who works at Williams-Sonoma (to be fair, her first recommendation was for a proper set of Mauviel copper cookware , but all I needed or have the skill to use, is a basic non-stick set). They've held up very well, so I took the plunge and replaced my entire Cuisinart set with the Rachael Ray ones. The Cuisinart set, like previous budget cookware I've owned like T-Fal , had a black non-stick surface that began to peel and flake off after some use. The Rachael Ray set also has a non-stick surface, but seems more meshed to the pans themselves and I've not noticed any flaking in the two years we've had them, even after daily use and dishwasher abuse. The handles on this set are also really well done, allowing cool, easy gripping and a natural angle. I also appreciate how well the lids fits and how high the handle is off the lid so you don't burn your fingers while removing it. Now whether Rachael Ray actually designed these, or they're just licensed under her name, I'm not sure. But I will say they're the best daily pots and pans I've owned and I definitely recommend them.

Love the set of pans. Light weight, clean up nice. Color wasn't exactly what I wanted, but price was the cheaper than other colored handles.

Best pan set for Airbnb property……..easy clean, long lasting.

LLEGO MUY RAPIDO, EXCELENTE MATERIAL Y EL COLOR MAGNIFICO, GRACIAS!

So far good and enjoying it

Me encantaron!!!!

I’m not impressed with this set at all. It stains easily and the stains are a hassle to get out. You’d have to stop cooking, get the pot off the stove, wipe off any food particles on the sides (burning your fingers while at it) and then put it back on the stove. All of that just to prevent the stains! I’ve tried all the cleaning hacks and liquids and nothing works, it shouldn’t be this hard to clean. It’s just over a month old and I’ve tried to give it some time but I’ve had enough. Going to be asking for a refund because this set isn’t worth the £180.
