ok... - N. Twersky - New Jersey
My Mother bought this set of pots for me and there were a couple of dissapointments. First off, I was upset that the set didn't come with a medium size pot- a 3.5 or 4 qt. it only came with the 1 and the 2 qt which are very simular in size and I felt that the size was missing. Second, I am very particular about the cleanliness of the pots and I found the little lip/bubble around the lid was annoying to clean. After cooking a soup on the stove for about 6 hours, the steam really cakes up inside of there, and no matter how many times I passed my sponge through the groove, it kept coming out dirty. Also, I originally bought the circulon 2's but returned them for the elite's because I wanted the clear cover and now I regret it. The clear covers are nice because you could see inside, but food particles (especially after cooking a long time) gets stuck between the glass and the metal and I always have to take out a toothpick and wipe that out. Macy's was very apologetic and let me return this set, which I replaced with the circulon infinates. I haven't used them yet, but am hoping that these two problems will be solved with my new set (it came with a free bonus of a 4 qt. pot). They seem a bit heavy, because of the additional steel plate on the bottom, but it helps with the cooking, and I think all the pots (including the elites) are heavy anyway!! Also, I'm not so thrilled that the handles don't have any silicone covering, which makes it hot when cooking- but if you cook properly, and keep it on a medium flame, the side handles are ok to handle (but the lid handle you need some sort of protection). They did this because it is oven safe, unlike the others. But the biggest plus about the infinate is it is dishwasher safe- which has fantastic reviews, so hopefully that will hold up!! Hope this helps!!!
Circulon Elite 10-Piece Nonstick Hard-Anodized Cookware Set - Taya -
I purchase this item to replace my other set of cookware which I had for 10 years. I like Circulon because I purchase a round griddle pan from a department store and I like the way it cooks and easy to clean. Buying this cookware set is a great vestment for me and my family. We like the way it cleans easily, the appearance of the set which has glass lids and you can see what the food is doing.
I love these pots! - C. Gallagher - Edwardsville, IL
I LOVE these pots. They cook so evenly and clean up oh so nice! I found them originally at Kohl's for 0, but purchased them at Amazon and saved 0. Free shipping and no tax--can't beat that!
