I just purchased this set and put them in the dishwasher. I don’t want anything I have to wash by hand. As I was putting away I was drying the waters spots off the dutch oven my towel became red. That piece lost it’s shine and the others remained shiny. I am really disappointed. My first set of new cookware in 17 years. This set let me down.

Love the none stick cooking surface, love the color has a unique finish. The handles however get very hot when using the cookware on the stove top. Would be beneficial to have seperate lids for each peice of cookware. Expected to get a larger frying pan than was in the set.

I bought these for my daughter as a housewarming gift. I was surprised at how much they were speckled given the solid red look of the picture. They’re red, with a darker shade of red speckling, which is pretty dramatic. They are plenty heavy enough, very unusual finish, and beautiful. Perfect to hang up and display.

I was about to buy this and waited a week. It went from from $120 to $149. A 20% increase. Makes me want to think about Emerilware now.

I was very disappointed after checking all over the packaging in store and again at home only to find that in very small print in the well folded pamphlet inside it turned out to have PTFE coating. Would never have bought it if I’d known. Says non stick porcelain all over but no mention of the PTFEs.
