Rating: - Highly Recommended Cookware From A Gourmet Housewife
I've had this set for over a year.

My husband and I love to cook. I had Farberware for years and it was time to upgrade to a non-stick. I had read loads of reviews of Calphalon, Analon & Circulon. Those were the high end non-stick cookware I was looking at.

What sold us was the handles. You never have to use anything to take it off the stove as the handles are rubberized and always cool. We had another pan (Belgique) which promised the same thing (cool handles) but that wasn't true.

It is true that the bottom gets black, but I don't have a problem with that as I want pans that can cook, especially since we eat at home every day and love our organic gourmet type food that we eat. My husband eats meat, I don't, but that is not a problem with these pans and this set. When he makes Indian food (for instance), he's using another pan for the meat stuffs, while I use the another pan for the vegetable things.

Cleaning up is not hard with these pans. I usually don't even have to soak them.

I don't see very many scratches on my cookware set as others say they do on theirs. I would say minimal scratches have appeared, in fact, I can only remember 1 small one that I've seen in a year's use of heavy cooking.

As far as oils in the pan (someone wrote a review saying not to use oil in the pan), I had no idea about it. The person who wrote the review said they used Canola Oil, maybe that's why? I have only used high grade Olive Oil in the pan and have never had any problems whatsoever.

Food tastes great in this set and yes you CAN stack it. In 2 stacks as I do.

Overall I recommend this for anyone who loves to cook, or is just a casual cook.

Rating: - Terrific cooking tool. Makes cooking more fun!
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.

Rating: - Customers Service!!!
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.
