I really enjoy the pots and pans but was mislead by the dishwasher fast. It's recommended not to put them in the dishwasher. If as they stated silicone utensils are the best to use, why did they include bamboo? Easy cleanup because food doesn't stick to them but how long will that last.. Dallas. Lewiston, ID.

Fantastic! Couldn't be happier. Mary. Sat Mar 28 2026

High-performance Stainless: Stainless steel cooking surface does not discolor, react with food, or alter flavors. Perfect for a variety of cooking techniques.

Awesome! Last set of Cuisinart lasted 15yrs. Love your sales! Well, what I thought was a good deal, is not!!! My stainless steel cookware is pitting and I am not very happy. Says that there's a 30 day return policy. I understand, but the pitting in the cookware shouldn't be happening when the cookware is this new. We have a gas stove but do not cook at a high temp. Please let me know what you can do to assist me in this matter. I would be happy with a credit to Wayfair and then find another cookware set. Thank you for your time.. Faye. Owatonna, MN.
