Buying a cookware set from the internet is a tough decision! I personally want to touch the pots, feel them, weight them.Unfortunatelly at the local stores i could only find some way too expensive sets (All Clad) and some cheap but...So after a lot of search i decided to trust the customer reviews for this set (plus the free shipping from Amazon.com). I am so happy i did it. The pots have the right weight - not too light, not too heavy - and the right size for someone who cooks every single day for a family of 4!! I'm not gonna argue about stainless-steel because anyone who cooks a lot knows better.As for the shine and stains i'd rather cook than worry about such things!!! I highly recommend this great 9-piece set by KitchenAid!! | 5 | Today | Great Set at a Great Price
When we got our new Jenn-Air range, with glass-ceramic cooking surface, we found out that our old MagnaLite pots and pans just weren't flat enough. After some research we decided to try this set out. We are more than happy with them and they work great with the glass top. | 5 | Today | five ply = 5 stars
I bought my daughter a set of 5ply stainless steel pots for her bridal shower two years ago. My son is getting married and his fiance loved them and wanted them also. I couldn't find them anywhere for a reasonable price. I finally found them at amazon for an amazing price and bought them. They maintain the heat and cook so even its unbelievable. And you never have to cook on high. I would recommend this cookware to everyone. | 5 | Today | True Quality
First, let me say that if you're questioning whether to buy through Amazon, don't hesitate. They are great about returns, should you rethink your purchase. And, if anything is damaged, they'll take care of you or find someone who can.
Second, if this set is on sale (63% off), as it was when I purchased it, BUY IT NOW!
Okay, to the review. I love these pots. My first pot set purchase from Amazon was the Cuisinart Classic, which were pretty but cheap, cheap, cheap! Even my husband, you doesn't cook, says they felt like tin--as in a tin can!!! So, I returned those and descided I would spend a bit more to get a set that I'd be happy with for the long haul. I was looking at a few 3-ply sets (QVC Technique, Cuisinart, Gourmet Standard) and a 5-ply on Overstock by Mario Biro. When I was reviewing the options with my husband, the KitchenAid set went on sale, which made my decision.
I have had them for about two months and I love them. They're feel solid. The styling is simple. The mirror finish is not so intimidating that you feel compelled to spit shine them and put them on display, meaning I'm not afraid to actually cook with them.
The only thing I don't like is that the handles of the lids do get hot (and the Cuisinart Classics did not...).
As a side note, KitchenAid does truly have a no hassle return policy in case of damage. There was a tiny nick on the rim of one pot and they're sending me a replacement, without me having to return the pot for inspection (as I read in another review).
So, if it fits your budget, I doubt you'll be disappointed. | 5 | Today | Gotta have this
I love these pans. I am cooking all of the time now. Qualtiy and easy cleanup. | 5 | Today | good product
We are enjoying this cookware set a lot. It heats and cooks evenly and cleans easily. We look forward to adding to this set. | 4 | Today | Awesome!!!
I just love these pans!! (I bought the complementary set as well - they dovetail perfectly) Perfect range of sizes. I just love the great big skillet, it seldom leaves the stovetop!
I have replaced every other pan I have ever owned with this set and will never look back. I have a radiant heat stovetop, so I needed better pans. They conduct heat so well that water sizzles on the side of the pan when it sloshes - I've only ever experienced that before on a gas stove! Easy keepers - they clean up like new in the dishwasher. They are solid and beautiful.
I also added the matching grill pan - I don't miss the jen-air anymore - works great.
Kitchenaid (if you are listening), make a two-burner flat griddle pan with the same 5-ply aluminum core, and that will be the last piece of cookware I'll ever need!!!!

I have owned this set of pans for 6 years now and I would buy them again and again. Great weight, cook evenly, and they still look wonderful. I agree with another reviewer that the key to making these pans look new again is to clean with a sponge using a stainless steel cleaner. The only note is that the lid handles DO get hot so be prepared to leave a pot holder/handle holder on lid. | 5 | Today | KitchenAid means QUALITY!
This is the nicest cookware I have ever held, and without question the nicest I have ever owned or used. QUALITY QUALITY QUALITY! Perfectly even heat distribution, easy clean-up, BEAUTIFUL. | 5 | Today | Kitchenaid versus All-Clad
I thought I would weigh into the debate between purchasing Kitchenaid and All-Clad...
Based on the reviews here, my wife and I purchased the 9-piece set of Kitchenaid Clad from Australia before moving to the U.S., i.e. sight unseen. Since arriving, we have also collected a growing number of pieces of All-Clad. As it happens, both brands of cookware have, in my opinion, positives and negatives.
All-Clad, in my opinion make a better designed piece of cookware. While some people, myself included, picked up an All-Clad saucepan in a cookware store and have commented on the uncomfortable handles, what they (and I) didn't realise is that when cooking in a hot kitchen where steam abounds, sweaty hands can make it difficult to pick up a saucepan and tip out it's contents. The All-Clad pans make this job easy as while they are in some ways uncomfortable, they are extremely functional and allow for a good grip and ease of turn. Furthermore, the angle of the handles means that less effort is needed to tip the saucepan. The opposite can be said of the Kitcheaid handles. Kitchenaid's handles, while more comfortable in the hand, make the saucepan very difficult to tip when full. My wife cannot turn them at all and I find it difficult without using a teatowel or pot holder. This is accented by the flatter handle which means you have to twist your wrist further to tip out the saucepans contents.
It has been said that the pouring lip of All-Clad is not great. I have not found this to be the case, however the flared lip of the Kitcheaid pots certainly makes for easier pouring.
The lids on the Kitchenaid saucepans are good and bad. Being slightly more domed than the All-Clad lids they are better at keeping the condensation in. The All-Clad lids are not... condensation drips off them like no tomorrow. However I found that the Kitchenaid lids do not fit the pans all that well in some cases, especially the 3-quart saucepan... it doesn't affect their cooking ability however it is a bit of a pain.
I bought the steamer (KitchenAid 2-1/2-Quart Stainless Steel Clad Steamer Insert) for the 3-quart Kitchenaid saucepan. It does not fit well and tips when there is no food in it. I believe this is due to the lip of the pan. I rang Kitchenaid customer service (and I only have nice things to say about them) and they sent me a new 3-quart. The same problem exists. Hence, it is the design of the lip that is flawed with regard to use with the steamer. Of course, while there is food in it, it steams perfectly well.
When cooking with both I find that the All-Clad gives a slightly more even heat although not so much that it makes too big a difference. And I need to correct a misnomer stated by a number of reviewers here... Kitchenaid DOES NOT have more layers of aluminum than All-Clad. All-Clad have three separate layers of aluminum between the layers of stainless steel. If you read through the detailed descriptions on the All-Clad product pages you will find this fact (All-Clad Stainless 9-Piece Cookware Set). Thus, from a materials perspective they are very similar.
Ultimately, I think the price of Kitchenaid warrants it's purchase. For the money it is great value. Hence I gave it 4 stars. However, I am in the process of replacing my Kitchenaid pieces with All-Clad... but that's mostly because I have to have the best (and a bit because they are easier for my wife to use). If you want great cookware, buy Kitchenaid, if you want the best, buy All-Clad. I can't be fairer than that...
