What the testers found
Rated Recommended with Reservations by America's Test Kitchen. The pans "generally cooked well and browned food nicely," but were "slightly smaller and the skillets a bit more bowl-shaped than we prefer," the "comparatively petite stockpot made cooking even a pound of pasta a bit challenging," and a rounded handle "was hard to grasp securely through a pot holder." ATK gave it top marks for cleanup and durability.
