FarberwareMillennium Stainless Steel Cookware Pots and Pans Set, 10 Piece

I bought this cookware set as a gift for my niece. I have a set made by the same company for over 30yrs and still using them. So i know this will be a great gift for anyone who loves to cook, or for any kitchen add on.Im very happy with the overall quality of the cookware set,i was very impressed of how it was pack, with no damage to its very new sealed boxes. It is so well organized, the presentation was amazing.I highly recommend this company and their products.

Great price for a beginner stainless steel cookware set. Excellent shape (tulip shaped) and a decent size for a family of 3-4, the quality is good for a regular use. Medium to low heat cooking works well. Easy to clean and use.

Nice set of pots/pans. Stylish cookware.

After much research on stainless cookware, I finally settled on the Farberware. The pricing on the Millennium setwas well under what I was willing to spend, so I also looked at the higher priced sets. It turns out that those higher priced pots & pans didn't have any apparent advantages over the Farberware at all. In fact, the Farberware looked to be of better quality than some sets costing 30-80 dollars more.These pots & pans are of good weight, they are stout, but not overly heavy and the highly polished outside surfaces are beautiful. The insides of the pots & pans are of a satin finish, with the degree of finish slightly varying from pan to pan. I was concerned that the pans with the coarser finishes may be prone to having food stick on the bottom, but it was worry for nothing, the pots and pans were problem free. The heavy glass lids are nice, but the lid handles get very hot, very quickly. The handles of the pots & pans themselves also get hot, so I'd recommend using an oven mitt when holding on to either handle. It was the issue of the hot handles that caused me to drop them to a 4 star rating, I'd give all other aspects of the product 5 stars. Besides the one minor problem, Farberware has produced a very fine set of cookware.I noticed that most of the 1 & 2 star reviewers all had the same issue, they complained that everything they tried to cook would stick. Well, cooking on stainless is much different than cooking on non-stick. I believe the unhappy buyers of stainless are expecting bare steel to act like Teflon and that's just not gonna happen. If you're going from Teflon to stainless steel, you'll need to adjust your heat setting to lower than what you are used to and use at least a little oil. DO NOT use PAM or other spray cans of anti stick coating, it'll just make an ugly mess of your pan.The bottom line?? If you want a stainless set for under $100, this is it.

I’ve been using a base set of Farberware for literally decades, have loved them and was hesitant to change; but these are every bit as good and more. I love the glass lids. They cook well. They are easy to clean. I’m pleased they made the larger pan deeper. Highly recommend.

These are the worst pans to cook in and clean up - do not buy them!! After 35 years using old pots and pans, I decided to treat myself with new ones. I had a farberware pot I really liked, so went with these. Everything sticks to these pans. Can’t even make an over easy egg in them without it sticking. Cleaning is the worst. Soak, scrub, soak some more and keep scrubbing. I am so ready to toss them out.

High quality cookware. This is my second set of Millennium. The first set lasted 12 years.

I love these. I had been looking for a stainless set with a good nonstick and NO plastic (on handles, etc). Partly so the little-used pieces from a prior stainless/nonstick set (different brand) would still somewhat match, but mostly because I find the look classic so it never goes out of style. I also can't stand exteriors that can't take a good scrubbing or interiors that food sticks to and stains. Once I saw The Farberware Millennium set, I kept looking at reviews for it and it consistently got very high ratings on any site I looked. I decided this was the set for me and got a very good price on Amazon. Both the interior and exterior are very easy to care for. I can't say anything bad about them. I expect this set to last me many many years and never go out of style.Update: I've now had this set about a year, and I absolutely love it. Although they state you can put them in the dishwasher, there are some items I've learned to NEVER put in a D/W -- nonstick cookware and knives, besides things that will obviously melt or state not to. The harsh dishwasher detergent will "kill" a nonstick surface over time. The purpose of nonstick to make cleanup easy, and this is truly a swish with a sponge in warm soapy water, so there is very little time spent, and the dishwasher has much more room for plates, bakeware, etc. They are as shiny and nonstick as the day I got them. I also make sure to follow the instructions and not heat the pans on a high heat -- they cook just great at a lower setting while preserving the nonstick surface. My husband and I use the small skillets for breakfast every day, and the one from an old (non-Farberware) set started peeling so we were down to only one. I got a Cuisinart skillet the same size, but no comparison, have now ordered another Farberware Millenium one. The price on that one piece was 1/3 of the cost of this 10-piece set! If you are wanting a stainless NONSTICK set, this one is EXCELLENT for the price!!!
