Know about copper and normal chemical reactions. You cook differently with these vs nonstick.
These pots and pans are beautiful and holds the heat. Food always has the potential to stick and burn but oil and deglazing is helpfuI along with adjusting heat throughout cooking. I was scared to buy after some reviews but I'm glad I did. I did notice some discoloration and silver showing like some of the pictures in the reviews. However, the copper cleaner that was included took care of that and turned it back to its original state. The bottoms discolored somewhat but thats normal with copper and again the copper cleaner fixed that. Cleanup was a breeze with mild soap and water. I use very little oil in cooking and deglaze with water often throughout cooking. I like that I use less heat in comparison to my vintage stainless steel set. I found cooking on medium low to medium was more than sufficient. If you don't like washing by hand and polishing your cookware this may not be the set for you but I think the quality and beauty is worth it. Just do your research on copper and how to utilize it to its fullest potential.I wanted to add an update. The copper did react when heated. I used it 3 times before I decided to use the copper cleaner. Not bad and I don’t mind the few water marks. I’m lazy that way. I had to use the copper cleaner 3 times remove every single mark but the silver went away with the first polish. I guess it depends how picky you are with pots and pans looking brand new and perfect 24/7. Also I have been cooking on medium high with no issue.

Beautiful set of pots and pans.
This set came perfectly packed and even included cleaning paste. All the pots look amazing. They get discolored during cooking process, but it cleans easily with this cleaning paste. Frying pans I use only for warming up,Because during the real frying, food gets stuck to the bottom of the frying pan even with oil. Otherwise, cooking soup, pasta, warming up rice gives healthy cooking and pleasure to look at the set. I like the set very much. I even like to clean it.

Hands down BEST Pots and Pans
Boy, do I have a story for you!! My husband bought these pans for me for Christmas a few months ago and I never knew how much I loved them until this past week. I already liked them because they do not contain the cancerous nonstick coating, but I really fell in love with them this past Thursday.My husband was out of town, so I had all of the duties to myself with juggling kids to school, packing lunches, making breakfast and prepping my car for the school field trip. My kids helped me, but I was still in a hurry since there was lots to do! Somehow, I managed to get out the door and into the car leaving for the day~ not to return until almost 5pm. When I got home, I noticed that my stove top was hot!! I looked and saw that I left the simmer on the entire day with the pan on it. The pan (larger skillet) was absolutely torched. I contemplated just tossing it in the trash. However, I didn't want to be wasteful. So I pulled out my Bartenders Keeper magic cleaner and caked it on for a couple days. I truly wish I had a before picture. It looks like a brand new pan. Seriously, no other pan would have done this. Yes, I am grateful that our home didn't burn down, but I am also in complete shock with the sustainability of this product! Five Stars for sure and I wish I could do multiple plus signs next to it as well!! Well done to the manufacturer!PS~ I grew up using copper pots and pans. Please make sure that you have the appropriate cleaner to hand wash them. I love two products called Bartenders Keeper for inside of the pan/pot and Twinkle Brass & Copper Cleaning kit~ for the copper side. Bartenders Keeper can be bought at Bed, Bath and Beyond, Smart & Final, Target, Amazon or Dollar Store. Twinkle I buy on Amazon. These two products will make your pans look new and will cause you less work and time.

Use almost no heat at all and everything sticks and very difficult to clean.
I was so excited when I opened these for Christmas! The color was absolutely gorgeous. Now here comes the sad news my friends. I made some delicious blueberry pancakes and when I went to flip them the blueberries oozed out naturally and were burnt on the pan. I used low heat as recommended and they still burdened. I waited until the pan cooled down and tried to clean it. At first I just used gentle pressure which did absolutely nothing and then I used a lite scrub pad and wasn't able to get the burnt blueberries off. I'm so sad and disappointed with this cookware and I will be sending it back🙄

I love — LOVE — these pots
I love these pots. I realize that I said that not once, but twice in my headline, but it bears mentioning again. First off, they cook beautifully. They definitely get hotter, faster than stainless or other types of pans, but that just means you need to start with a lower flame than you might otherwise. For me, clean up for these is a breeze. To those that complain about how the copper gleam goes away and moan about how hard they are to clean, I'd suggest reading the instructions. The sets comes with a jar of copper cream that you just wipe onto the outsides of the pans and VOILÁ! Shiny, like they were just taken out of the box. The copper cream is an extra step, yes, but watching what it can do and how it restores the shine is pretty nifty. Finally, these are a great value; most copper cookware is insanely expensive. In short, I love them.

have to polish them each time used
love the way it looks and the quality but I have to polish every time I use them , will not suggest anyone to buy them if you don't have time to polish your dishes everyday

Too hard to maintain
Beautiful cookware, but the problem is the copper reacts to the heat or water and discolors significantly. Even when you hang the pots on display they discolour after a few days. I was sent the copper cleaner, but you need to use this every single time you use the pans, they don't scrub up without effort and you even need to use regularly when they are clean just to keep the colour. I don't think that these pots are good for everyday use, they are nice but far too hard to maintain and they get marked way too easily.

Beautiful. Cooks evenly.
The pots and pans are beautiful. No sticking and even heat distribution. The copper changes color a little. They send copper cleaner. It makes a big difference when pans get dull.
