Summary: Caution!
Comment: These are sure pretty to look at.
I never cook with high flames, like some do in my family. These are not for frying up potatoes, sausages, or scrambled eggs, either.
After purchasing these, I still went to Albertsons and bought that huge non-stick skillet for 16.00.

Summary: Operator Error not Cookware Error
Comment: I just received my set for Christmas so I haven't had it long. I've used a friends Quisinart many years ago and loved them! Have wanted a set since. I was pleasantly surprised when I received my own set and cooked in them right away, loved it! So easy to use.
I came on here to check out some of the reviews since I'm always curious as to what others have to say about certain products. The number one complaint has been burning and sticking, particularly with eggs. I went right back into the kitchen and cooked an egg to see what would happen...it came out perfect, I didn't have to use butter as some have mentioned...I used olive oil and water as I've always done
Perhaps I'm just lucky for having grown up on Amway pans, where I had to learn to cook properly (and clean right) so I wouldn't end up spend the rest of the day scrubbing them. And even then there was no guarantee. If you are one that doesn't like to cook or doesn't have a lot of experience or, are always in a hurry, these pans are not for you!!!
Like most pans you are not supposed to cook on high heat (even t-fal pans state this), there are very few cases in which you would. Not to mention you can't just walk away as if it's a microwave oven. I would venture to bet every person who complained about burning and sticking isn't much of a cook to begin with. No offense, but everyone I know who happens to be a decent cook and owns these types of pans do not have the issues as many of the complainers here.
As far as cleanup, I dunno, I have always soaked my pans right away while still warm off the stove, and then clean them up after dinner. With these pans I soak them in vinegar and hot water and wash them up with a soft washcloth. So far so good.
So what's the trick to frying your food? Let the pan warm up first on medium (yes this means waiting a few moments), when you feel warmth at the bottom of the pan, place a little oil in (it doesn't take a lot) roll the pan around to coat the entire bottom, and then throw your food in. You might have to turn the heat down a notch once the foods in. It should cook just fine as long as you are paying attention to it and not walking away.
As far as the functionality of the pans? If used correctly they cook evenly and beautifully, and clean up quite nice. They feel solid and of good quality, the handles stay cool and the lids tight. They have a modern but timeless look to them which I can appreciate as a designer. I'm sure I will have these for a very long time. I highly recommend these to anyone who actually enjoys cooking.

Summary: Great set!
Comment: Husband and I purchased this set as a starter cookware set to go with our new home. We expected it to just "work" and we have been pleasantly surprised with it.
They have some weight but it is balanced and easy to use. Skillets heat quickly and uniformly and clean easily. Sauté pan was easy to handle empty or full. Handles were the only things that did not transfer heat - was really worried when we bought it how he'd crisp his hand - but I would still use a towel to grab handles and lids just-in-case.

Summary: This Pot SAVED MY DAUGHTER AND MY LIFE!!!
Comment: Emeril's stainless steel pot SAVED MY DAUGHTER AND I!!!
I have been meaning to write for a while now but it has been a crazy year.
In May of this year my daughter had a cold and I had mastitis. She barely slept the night before and I was exhausted. That morning I got up went downstairs to get a bottle for my daughter. I decided to sterilize the bottles while I was down there. I went back to my bedroom and decided to breastfeed my daughter instead. I ended up falling asleep and was awaken by some beeping. When I openned my bedroom door to see what it was smoke started billowing into the room. I slammed the door shut and openned the windows. I then remembered that I left the bottles sterilizing in the pot on the stove! I was then going to run down quickly to turn it off but as I openned the door I couldn't see two feet in front of me and the smoke actually burned my eyes and throat. I slammed the door shut again and called 911. They advised me to try to get out of the house with the baby. I wrapped Yanna in every blanket I could grab and made a run for it. I couldn't see anything, I seriously don't even know how I got downstairs and outside. I had to leave my two dogs Diesel and Jazmine upstairs in my bedroom which broke my heart. As I got outside I could hear the sirens of the fire trucks approaching. They ran into the house and took care of it and was able to rescue Diesel and Jaz. They came out with my beautiful Emeril pot with what just looked like black ash which was once all of my baby bottles. The fire chef then told me that I was lucky that I had such a good quality stainless steel pot or else we would have had a very bad situation on our hands. This pot was so good that it contained the fire in the pot! I was told that if I had a teflon pot or one of those "dollar general" pots it probably would have melted down and the fire would have consumed the whole back of my house. Most likely my daughter, Diesel, Jazmine and I would not have made it out.
I can't even express how grateful I am that he put such a quality pot out on the market. And if there is any way to thank the people who designed or made the pot please pass this on to them. People all over should know how great this pot is!
My daughter is now 8 months and doing great. We had to stay in a hotel for over a month while they fixed the smoke damage in the house, but everything worked out in the end. We should all be thankful this time of year and Emeril is making the top of the list this year.
Thank you
