Granitestone Pro 13pc Hard Anodized Cookware Set with Utensil

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this set. I recently replaced all my cooking ware and this one is simply the best. This set seems to be made of high quality material and it’s great at being non-stick. I’ve been cooking everything with this set for about 3 months now and basically no wear and tear. Overall, I really enjoy this set. Not only because it functions well but also because it looks pretty high quality. I’ve basically replaced every tool in my kitchen because this set has everything that I need (minus the silverware). Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pans are wonderful. They are a good quality build that doesn't feel cheap or flimsy. The handles are solid and tight. The pans are a great non stick quality and super easy to clean. Nothing sticks to them. These pans are a great addition to my cookware and I use the skillets just about daily now. I like them so much that I even bought a new set to give to my mom for Christmas. And she loves them just as much. Definitely recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are very lightweight, have a much lighter finish inside each pot/pan than what's pictured, and seem cheaply made, as if you could buy them in the appliance aisle at the drug store. The nonstick spatulas/spoons are not of high quality either. They're not going to withstand high temperatures, so be careful when cooking with them. We needed a set of cookware for our cabin, so we weren't looking for anything fancy. If you're in need of a no-frills set of cookware that's not going to last probably more than a year or two, this is for you. If you're hoping for something of higher quality that will last a bit longer, look elsewhere. The spoons/spatulas are honestly not going to last long at all. I'll probably toss them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I mostly use stainless steel cookware because nonstick pans have generally been disappointing and because the husband cannot seem to learn to not use metal utensils with them. Along came this Granitestone Pro Hard Anodized cookware. First, I am impressed with the packaging - almost like a briefcase. The carton is of very high quality, and the inner packaging is efficient while offering good protection for the contents. There was simply not a mountain of plastic and cardboard pieces to navigate. This set has fry pans in 8-, 10- and 12-inch sizes (with a lid for the 10), a lidded 1/5-quart saucepan, a lidded 5-quart stockpot, and a nice 5-piece utensil set (Spoon, pasta tool, ladle, slotted spatula/turner, and a skimmer). After years of using stainless steel, I was astonished at how lightweight this cookware is. Even so, it doesn't feel flimsy or skimpy. The handles in particular impressed me and feel like those of higher-end cookware. Granitestone says that one can use metal utensils (but not to cut inside the cookware) and that one can wash them in a dishwasher (though they warn that dishwasher detergents may harm the finish). They also seem to be able to be used on every typical home cooktop except induction, in addition to being oven-safe up to 500 degrees. For my initial torture test, and the main reason I miss nonstick cookware, I scrambled up a batch of eggs with lots of cheese, and I only added about a dime-sized bit of canola oil - nowhere near enough to coat the entire bottom of the 10-inch frypan. I was stunned to see my eggs easily slide right out of the pan - even the melted mozzarella! After allowing the pan to cool for a few minutes, I hand-washed it in warm water. That was a breeze! I am looking forward to cooking all sorts of things that are typically a cleanup nightmare!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The heat distribution of these pans is amazing. There were no "hot spots." My Thanksgiving dinner went rather smoothly this year. I've never cooked a turkey breast in a dutch oven before. This year I did. I feel it turned out as well, if not better than a oven bag or roaster. The breast was moist, flavorful and browned nicely. The drippings left made a great gravy, all in the same pot. Super easy clean-up, no sticking!!! I used the large skillet to brown some chicken breasts ( easily holds 5) transfer the pan to the oven, add vegetables, sauce, done in 30 minutes. These work great for one pot meals. When cooking on the burner, the handles stay rather cool. Nice size handles makes for a good grip and control. Very well-made, strong but not heavy. I'm loving the easy clean-up and how multi-functional all these pans are.
