WearEver C944SA Pure Living Nonstick Ceramic Coating Scratch Resistant PTFE PFOA and Cadmium Free Dishwasher Safe Oven Safe Cookware Set, 10-Piece, Gold

I ordered this cookware set because our old non-stick pans were no longer non-stick (Green-Pan). I opened the box yesterday, and was so impressed with the look and quality of the set. I love the soft silicone handles, and the color is really a nice bronze-ish gold. Very good packaging, as nothing was broken, bent, or chipped. I LOVE that all the lids fit every pan--this was not the case with our old set. Yes, the sauce pan lids fit the small frying pan, and the large lid fits the large frying pan beautifully. I thought about writing a review yesterday, but I had not cooked on them yet!Today I made eggs, just simple cooking, but I am not really an experienced cook, so I was sure to follow all the instructions, and some of the helpful hints from other reviewers. I hand washed and seasoned the large frying pan, and set it on low-medium heat. I cooked the eggs over easy, and was absolutely amazed by how easily they came out of the pan, with no left over 'stick' in the pan. I rinsed the pan and washed with a washcloth and everything came out flawlessly; still looks brand new. The eggs were great. I know this was only my first day cooking with this set, but I am already so impressed. Only time will tell. The only 'issue' I am having is figuring out how to store these without them getting scratched or damaged. I don't want to just pile them on top of each other, as I fear this will cause scratching and such.I will admit, I was not really nice to my old pots and pans, but these are so pretty and well made, I want them to last. I would recommend not putting them in the dishwasher, as they are so easy to clean by hand--it will just extend the life and look of the pans. Also, like directions and numerous other reviewers have said, make sure you follow directions for seasoning them. Don't add canola oil, ever, as well as any 'nonstick' spray--this will destroy the nonstick on your pans. And finally, there isn't really a need to crank up the heat with these pans--they do the job well at medium to low heat settings.I was also going back and forth between this set and the cook n' home ceramic set, which is slightly less expensive. I decided on this set because one, I like the look better than red or green; two, because these have silicone handles and not nylon 'pegs' (I didn't really like the pegs), and I liked the white silicone as opposed to off white silicone. I will add, however, that the cook n' home set has one more sauce pan (smaller one) than this set does, however once getting this set, I realized that it's not really needed. These pots and pans are not huge, so the saucepan can be used for multiple purposes. I guess it's mostly a personal preference. Definitely would recommend getting these--you will be impressed!

I picked up WearEver Pure Living Nonstick Ceramic Coating pots and pans set for my mother for Christmas a few months ago and they are a great buy! My mother had a set of old kitchen aid pans from the '80s and they were getting really worn down as you could guess. So I searched for a set that wasn't hundreds of dollars and could get the job done. That's where I found these. I always heard of ceramic being better than other nonstick sets but I hadn't tried them before. I took a leap of faith with these and I am glad I did! She opened the gift and was immediately over joyed knowing she has some new "toys" for the kitchen. We seasoned the pans (prepped them for first use) immediately. We used them for all the holiday meals and every meal since, and have had no problems what so ever!They have a very nice build to them, not cheap feeling or flimsy. They also have great rubber grips on the handles that have held up very nicely and come in handy a lot, since she is getting older and her hands don't grip as well as they used to. One other thing that shouldn't be a selling point but is a nice addition is the fact that this set looks very nice. My mother actually installed a hanging rack in her kitchen for easier reach and access of them, and they fit very well into the decor.I would recommend anyone who is on a budget (and who isn't now a days?!) to pick this set up. They are perfect sizes for small families and for medium sized kitchens. They have no issues what so ever with things sticking to them or making a mess of them, even burnt on food that was sitting over night washed clean with no scrubbing needed.One word of advice is to look up how to season ceramic pans before use, this will ensure you never have to use nonstick spray and will ensure that your pans will have a long life ahead of them!

I just used the two pans of the set (10 pieces set) yesterday and here I am back to report.The price is good for a set of all pans/pots that a person with some light cooking.1. Oil / season your pans/pots with coconut oil (thank you, one of the reviewer here at Amazon) before the first use. And keep seasoning it after you clean (wash and dry up) your cookware. I think the seasoning idea is same as how you season Lodge cast iron: dry up pan (no water at all), heat up a bit (open the pores), apply oil evenly, and you are done. However, a cast iron skillet is way more painful to do due to the fact it is very very heavy. The WearEver cookware, on the other hand, is light to handle during seasoning (cause it is made of light aluminum base).The document about taking care of WearEver set is at [...]Here I summarize some points that I think is important,- Season the pots prior to the first use. Make sure the cookware is dry. Hear the pan for 30 sec (to open up the "pores" on the ceramic coating), and then apply the vegetable oil evenly, with a brush or a soft paper towel. I learned from the reviews here and used coconut oil and I strongly recommend it. The coconut oil smells good too.- Use wooden or silicon utensils. The plastic ones that came with the set do not seem soft, so I choose to use my own wooden spoon.- During cooking, ALWAYS USE LOWER THAN MEDIUM HEAT. The document says low-medium heat actually. I think this is a cooking habit thing that is challenging to me who does stir fly most of the time. How is it "stir fry" if there is no dancing flame under my pans?? With the low-medium heat, yes I kind of feel it takes longer (few more minutes) to see my veggie turned "grilled" from raw ingredient. But after that, the grilling is working pretty well. I assume that with these pans, if I wanna heat up some frozen food, it may take longer. But since using no more than medium heat is a true rule for all non-stick cookware (T-Fal), and you keep more nutrient in your food (high heat kills a lot of vitamin... no reference yet just what I remember), I can live with it. (Bye bye, the dancing flame under the wok).- To clean, "allow the cookware to cool". Wash with soapy warm/hot water. The idea is you want to avoid sudden thermal shock to your cookware, e.g. cool water to wash the hot pans. I think this is true to most of the cookware. I wait until the cookware is cool down a little bit (still on the stove, heat off), and pour some warm/hot water into it to let it sit there a little while. Then I hand wash off with the warm water and a soft sponge. I am not sure whether it can handle a scrubber or not, cause the document says use "a sponge or gentle Dobie pad." No stain on my pans yet (even after I grilled the carrot).I do concern a little bit cause a lot of other reviewers complain that these cookwares lose the non-stickness after months of use, so hopefully the seasoning and gentle cleaning let my set stay longer (years). I will come back to report the following up.
