All-Clad HA1 Hard Anodized Nonstick Pots and Pans Set Non Stick Cookware Sets, Oven Broiler Safe 500F, Black

I’m loving this cookware set. At first, the contoured sides had me wondering if I’d like them. I do! The design actually improves the stirring of food in the pots. They clean up so easily and they are perfectly non stick. Very sturdy too

I was reluctant to buy this cookware set. Yes, I had heard repeatedly All-Clad was the industry standard. Yes, I had heard they (proudly) use made-in-America materials. But I thought, “Come on. It’s a round piece of metal you put over our current evolution of a campfire and wait for your hunk of animal carcass to finish turning brown enough that it won’t kill you. Can it be worth the price?” Yes. Yes it can. And it is.Sure, you could buy approximately 80 McRibs instead, but all you’d be left with is extra weight and regret. Why not go for something more fulfilling like this cookware set?I’ve been cooking seriously for years, and I’ve gone through several cheap pieces of nonstick cookware. They were like my first girlfriend. They were wonderful and treated me well at first, but they quickly fell apart and tried to poison me. These nonstick pans have withstood my regular cooking routine with no flaking, no scratching, and no chipping. Since I’m poor and single, I cook 6 dinners a week (plus lunches and breakfasts) at home; this cookware sees plenty of action. This cookware is my kitchen’s MVP. I have actually seen asparagus I was about to stir-fry try to run away because they knew these frypans mean business.Here’s my short, serious review:Pros—high-quality. Great construction and induction-safe (for those rich enough to have an induction stove). Works great on my traditional stovetop too.SUPERB nonstick coating (the best I’ve ever used, without exaggeration). Easy to clean. You could, if you were brave, cook things without oil on these. I don’t recommend it, but you could.Pretty even heat distribution (for non-stick cookware).Handles stay cool even though they’re metal. It’s like magic.Cons—heavy. Much heavier than your average residential-use cookware. To compare, about twice as heavy as T-fal of the same size and type. Although this is sort of a pro (heavy because they’re real metal), some might find it difficult to maneuver the saucepans or stockpots when they’re full.Expensive. Self-evident from the price tag. All-Clad is well aware that they are the industry standard, and they charge the corresponding premium.Bottom line: if you are serious about cooking your own food, or you want to get serious, this cookware is top-notch. It will make cooking more enjoyable for you, especially when it comes time to clean up.DISCLAIMER—I have never washed my cookware in the dishwasher. The box says it is dishwasher safe, but I prefer to hand wash all my nonstick pans to keep the finish lasting longer. I cannot attest to how they hold up in the dishwasher.

Well made, easy to clean, food doesn’t stick at all. Has a warranty through the maker- easy to register. I will never buy another style of pans again- absolutely love this set

Bought the full set when we installed our induction cook top in October 2021.Always hand washed. Stacked them for a short period of time, then hung them on the wall.The large frying pan shows what the company would probably call evidence of overheating, though we've never overheated them. I think it's just evidence of actual use. This is frustrating if someone needs to have it replaced under warranty. But after actively using the entire set for nearly a year and looking at pictures from other reviews who complain about quality and customer service, I really question how honest they're being about how they treat their cookware. The large frying pan has also become slightly warped, but flattens out completely when preheated. This is a concern since the company touts such quality construction. I'm guessing it's because of the layers and multiple metals used in construction. Next set I'll buy a solid core bottom and not a layered one. (If I can find that.) Knocked a star off for this.I knocked aother star off because the sides of the pots are not straight, but curve in slightly. While this makes the cookware look elegant, it makes pouring liquids from them tricky. This is the biggest reason I'm about to start looking for a new set.Do I hate them? No, they're fine enough.Would I buy again? No, for the price I paid, I need to love them.
