So dissapointed
I have purchased several pieces of individual pots. 2 of the pots have started to have the finish wear off on the bottom and are pitting. I still have and used my 60 year old Farberware pots that are in perfect condition. I am completely frustrated with the Cuisinart new pots.

Awesome set, bigger pots have challenges.
I bought this set 6 months ago and while yes, there is a learning curve, they were working beautifully until I went to unload my dishwasher that ran in a normal cycle and discovered my 8qt stockpot had split in the walls of the pot and was extremely upset. However, upon doing a bit of research seems that this is common for this pot and there are a few posts in Reddit with it. Seems like a manufacturing issue.

Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we’re very sorry to hear about the issue with your stockpot. To help prevent damage, we recommend hand washing larger pots and avoiding high-heat dishwasher cycles, as rapid temperature changes can sometimes affect performance.

Great set of cookware
Purchased this product 6 months ago. Love them. I knew when I purchased them that learning how to use them properly would be part of the fun. A great set of cookware.

Stainless steel forever
It's a very good product. Exactly what I expect from cuisinart. I've had them a year and haven't been disappointed. I love the versatility, sear on the stove toss in oven to finish. The larger pans are great for 1 pot dinners. 2 of mine do have manufacturer defects which is why I gave 4 not 5 stars but don't affect performance. Since these are composite do not put in dishwasher or soak the entire pan in water. Stainless steel cookware is the way to go. Better performance than nonstick and less maintenance than cast iron. This is best budget option I have seen.

Awful
Absolutely everything sticks to these pans. Potatoes, eggs, you name it - the worst pans I’ve ever had. I’ve tried “seasoning” with oil and cooking in ample amounts of oil. I would not recommend.

We’re sorry to hear about your experience with the 77-17N stainless-steel set and appreciate you sharing your feedback. Stainless steel requires preheating the pan before adding oil and allowing food to naturally release once properly seared, as adding food too early can cause sticking. We would be happy to walk through detailed cooking tips to help you achieve the best performance from your cookware. Please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 and reference Ticket #8900522096 for assistance.

Nice to look at, not for use
Discoloration occurred on the first use. Boiling pasta. Definitely did not live up to the expectation. Very nice set to look at, but not to use.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about the discoloration and understand how disappointing that can be. Stainless steel can sometimes develop spots from high heat or certain foods; using moderate heat and adding a small amount of oil or water when cooking can help minimize this. This cookware is backed by a lifetime warranty, and we encourage you to contact our Consumer Service team at 1-800-726-0190 for additional support if needed.

Great set! Easy to clean and still looks new after multiple washes. I would recommend hand washing always.

Love this set
Very high quality set. I absolutely love it. It’s my first stainless steel set and there is a learning curve for the nonstick frying pans, but if you watch some videos and read about cooking with them you can do it easily. The handles on the pans themselves have stayed cool for me, but I did have one lid that got too hot to touch. I definitely recommend buying Barkeeper’s Friend cleaner to have on hand to clean the pans with if you have tough stains, or if it gets discolored. The discoloration is not damaging to the pan and the cleaner takes it away. Otherwise I just use Dawn soap.

Stained spots that can be easily cleaned
They seem to work really well, but tend to have spots that stick.

Wonderful Set at a Wonderful Price
Excellent! Very happy with this set. The "everything sticks" reviews are most likely from customers who don't know how to use stainless steel cookware. Stainless is not for everyone. The cookware is well made and looks fantastic, even after use. Cleaning can be a bit of a chore, but, again, stainless is not for everyone. Steak, chops, veggies, soups, stews, chili and eggs all come out great. I highly recommend this set to folks who are a bit more "into" cooking and not your average Joe or Jane who is looking for non-stick pots and pans right out of the box.

Chef's Classic Stainless Steel Cookware - A+
Complete set of stainless steel cookware for every need. Well made, nice handles that you can grip firmly and not just a knob. I had to buy new cookware for an electric ceramic cooktop after having a gas cooktop for many years. After much research, I ordered this set and am extremely pleased. I love that they are dishwasher safe, though a few pans have just a bit of discoloration on the inside bottom after washing. It does not affect cooking, so it's a minor thing. I would purchase these again and highly recommend.

The best buy for your money
These have been in the family for years and they are great if you know how to use them. If you are used to "non-stick" pans, these will be very different. You have to use butter or oil to cook and your temperatures will be lower as these pans conduct the heat quite a lot hotter than regular pans. Also, if they start to stick even with the use of butter, et al., you need to follow the instructions for cleaning them. Use Barkeeper's Friend, works like a charm and your omelets won't stick.

Worst pots and pans ever!
Worst cookware we’ve ever bought! Everything sticks to it - - even when using an ample amount of olive oil. After using this crappy product for a year, we threw it away and bought HEXCLAD.

Food sticks
Everything stick to these pans. They are the worst pot and pan set I’ve ever had. It’s not stick free, not dishwasher safe, and it takes so long for them to heat up and when it does get to temp, food sticks and burns. It’s a pain to clean afterwards. I won’t buy the pots and pans but the other electronic appliances were decent like my can opener.

Loving this kitchen!
I bought the this and the 11 piece sets and some larger pots. I am happier than a kid at a birthday party. Follow the cooking instructions you will have no problem. I have an induction stove heating was hard at first. Once I figured the stove temperatures. It has been easy sailing. I absolutely love they're products. Looking forward to purchasing the entire Cuisinart kitchen! Everything. One or two pieces every month. I can't wait to get the steamer.

The best Cuisinart pottery set yet!
I like the measuring lines etched on the inside of the pots which eliminates looking for a measuring cup, the see thru glass lids, and the quality shine of stainless steel.
