Amazon.com Review
Cooks shopping for midweight stainless-steel cookware at a mid-range price may well have found their match with this cookware set from Cuisinart. Equipped to handle most common cooking tasks, the 14-piece set includes a 1-1/2- and 3-quart covered saucepan, an 8- and 10-inch covered skillet, a 4-quart covered saute with helper, and a 9-quart covered stockpot, as well as a 7-3/4-inch covered steamer insert and 9-1/2-inch covered pasta steamer insert. As part of Cuisinart's Chef's Classic line of cookware, all pieces are made of 18/10 stainless steel that has been polished to a brilliant mirror finish and that won't react to acidic foods. An inner core of aluminum ensures that foods heat quickly and evenly without hot spots that can burn foods. The riveted stainless-steel handles on the cookware stay cool on the stovetop and the matching 18/10 mirror-polished stainless-steel lids seal in moisture and nutrients for healthier, more flavorful results. In addition, the cookware pieces provide tapered rims for drip-free pouring and all pieces are dishwasher-safe. All cookware in Cuisinart's Chef's Classic line is oven-safe up to 450 degrees F and covered by a limited lifetime warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

 Poor Quality Stainless & Machining May 8, 2008
Frank P. Herrmann (Naples, FL)
I bought this Cuisinart cookware to replace a set of Revere Ware that was well over 40 years old. I should have kept the Revere Ware. First, the Cuisinart Chef's Classic stains and spots even if I just boil water. There appears to be flaws in the stainless. The interior surface is not so smooth as other stainless cookware, so food sticks unnecessarily. The bottoms are not well machined and polished and, as a result, stain very easily.
I bought this Cuisinart Chef's Classic cookware with a pot rack to store and display it. Now I am embarrassed for anyone to see it because of the stains and discolorations. Because of this poor quality, the Cuisinart Chef's Classic cookware is hardly worth the price. I could have done much better in a discount department store for less than half the cost. My son bought the Kirkland brand from Costco for less and he has a far better quality product, by far.
I had problems with the poor quality of an expensive Cuisinart blender, but took a chance on the Cuisinart Chef's Classic cookware based on the positive feedback on this site. If there were a way to give it back, I would. The quality is so poor, I definitely cannot recommend it to anyone.
Good Product May 7, 2008

Beautiful product, not as heavy weight as I expected. Short term this cookware has exceeded expectations, long term is yet to be seen.
 Great Value April 15, 2008

I bought this set for our vacation house. I have All Clad at home, and I must say this is a close second! I don't really care how it looks, because I don't have this out. But it performs really well for the $$. I love the pasta insert! Just make sure to remove it in the sink!
Great cookware April 7, 2008

This was given as a gift. The person loved it. She is a professional cook and has enjoyed using this product. Will buy more Cuisinart Chef Classic cookware.
 Quality falling off ... beware of free offers. March 16, 2008

I have purchased several different Cuisinart items over the years and the quality of the pieces is noticeably different (and poorer) over the years. It is now made in China (what isn't) and the packaging is incredibly flimsy and cheap.
Also the last set I bought had free offers which disappeared from amazon one week after the purchase. If I hadn't cut and pasted the info when I made the purchase I would have been SOL. I am still trying to find out why Cuisinart's fulfilment center did not send the free offers, they have not replied to four emails so SOL there anyway. I noticed that some of the tags/barcodes that were supposed to be included in the redemption did not even exist anywhere on the packaging, so there was no way to comply with the terms of the redemption.
All are signs of a company going downhill rapidly so beware when purchasing Cuisinart pots and pans that it may not be up to the standards you expect, it certainly has not been what I expected.
Also be aware that any advertised free offers on amazon are not guaranteed and are no better than the company that offers them. Make sure you print or save all the info at the time of purchase because amazon can and will take it down at any time. This quite surprised me, that even following links from my account info I could not connect to the original offer information. Caveat emptor indeed.
