Anolon Advanced Hard Anodized Nonstick Cookware Pots and Pans Set, 11 Piece, Onyx

Took almost a month to receive the set. Used almost every piece at least one time except the 12" deep fry pan with handle. When using this pan the first time tried to put lid on but it didn't fit. After looking closely the pan it has a small dent near the main handle that is hard to see but very evident when using the lid. I sent in a claim under the lifetime warranty including all pictures asked for by Anolon for replacement. Waiting for a response from Anolon. Will follow up review.Had not received any response from Anolon after 1 month. While updating my claim with a question I noticed they have a chat feature. I gave them 2 days more to respond to my question and then tried the chat.i was connected to agent Stacy. she informed me that claims were taking longer more like 8 to 10 weeks. she told me Anolon didn't have the 12 inch pan in this set. It was only available in the set. She asked if they could substitute the straight sided 12 inch as a replacement. I agreed as long as the pan shipped is the same as the set. this will still take another 1.5 to 2 weeks to get to me. Stacy was very helpful. Will follow up after getting the replacement.I received the replacement that was promised within the 2 week period. This pan shows zero damage and is a great replacement for the set. thanks again to Stacy for making this happen.After using the set for a couple of months we are extremely satisfied with the heating, non stick and cleaning ease of this set. Hand washing is a breeze.

Having just received this set three days ago, I have only used two pieces once thus far so I cannot yet speak to the durability or longevity but my first impressions are very good. They have an excellent nonstick quality and the cleanup has been super easy. The cooking was even and they are easy to handle. I cook a lot and while I'm not a professional chef, I know my way around a kitchen. I finally bit the bullet and decided to throw out my old set (which was nonstick but not hard anodized and had begun chipping). These are definitely an upgrade and while my old set listed me about 9 years with proper care, I expect that this set will last me far longer. I like the sizes and my only problem is that they take up so much more space in my pot cabinet because the handles sit up higher and the pieces to not nest well together. I worked it out, but it's not quite as convenient. I may have to slim down my cabinet holding my bakeware to allow more room for these but all in all, it's an excellent purchase thus far and I will try to update the review when I've had more time with them.

I am in love with these!! I waited a few months to make sure they stood up to daily use before submitting. I love the color!! They are very sturdy. The quality of the product is exceptional. I was disappointed they don’t do well in the dishwasher. But after using them they are so easy to clean I don’t mind that I have to wash them. They will last me longer and keep their quality longer. Definitely very very happy I chose these and will love them for a long long time!

I was looking for a set that would really hold up and cook evenly, well, and a no stick. These are heavier than what you would purchase at the local retail stores. Inside and out are no stick. They do cook really well and clean up is a breeze with these pots and pans. I thought the glass lids would have drain capability but they did not. The larger pots are tall and narrower than I expected, however they still hold a much as the larger shorter round type of pot. When they first arrived I do not think my family was overly impressed. Once they also used them I've had many comments that they not only liked them but was glad I had purchased them.

I'm adding an update note to the oiginal review below, and I'm adding back some stars. The reason for for this is that I was able to pound the pot and skillet into a round shape with a hard rubber mallet, so now the lids fit properly on them. Still, these defective items should have never left the factory at this price point.Original review:WTF?!? The set arrived, and is very pretty. The bottoms are thick and anodized, while the sides and interior are coated, and should be easy to clean. The fluted sides also promise easy pouring. But...The large pot and skillet are not round, SO THE LIDS DON'T FIT!!!I suspect the handle riveting machine uses too much force, bent the thin sides, and the company is selling their rejects as new items. Basically, the largest items in the set are now useless.Here's an action shot of how bad one lid is. If I'm not careful, the lid falls right in! Pathetic!

SUPER GREAT cookware. I bought these to replace my 11 year old wedding gift cookware set from another brand. The price was high but knowing now how great they are, I wouldn’t hesitate to pay it again. Heats evenly and quickly. Non stick - every time. Heavy and sturdy. And says you can use with metal utensils (even though I’ve been trained not to...). You won’t regret this set!

First of all, I love this cookware set. It looks great and performs very well. Also important, however, is the quality of the seller. One of the pot lids came dented. Not a big deal, but I still wanted a complete and undamaged set. The seller worked with the manufacturer on a replacement. Always great when a seller works so hard to make sure their customer is taken care of! Thanks!

This is a set for professional cooks as well as those of us who are trying to survive in college. Its main feature is distributing heat evenly. This set needs TLC to maintain. Purchase the Calphalon Dormond, Hard-Anodized Cookware Cleaner, 7-Ounces (about $12.50 on Amazon) to help you maintain the set. If you take care of this set, it will take care of you forever. Do not wash these pans while hot, and do not put them in a dishwasher. Use wooden (bamboo) utensils and avid hitting and scaring the bottom of pots and pans. These are tough looking pots and pans, but need gentle handling to last.

This is a beautiful functional set of cookware, don’t hesitate for a minute to purchase Analon Advanced. The set contains everything you need! Very high quality and cleans up perfectly with no effort. On top of that, the seller, Meyer Housewares Canada was fantastic to deal with, prompt, professional and they stand behind their products. They will definitely be my go to for future purchases. Because the product and my buying experience was so awesome, I made sure to take the time to write a review, which is something I don’t normally do. Thanks so much, you’ve gained a loyal customer!
