Great product!
I've been cooking with these pots for 2 months now and they are wonderful. They are very sturdy, professional quality and the even cooking is wonderful. The more eco-friendly non-stick surface is a dream!

Great Cookware Glad I made the purchase
I purchased these in December and use them every day to cook with. I love these pans. I haven't had anything stick to them. (when I cook eggs, I do spray olive oil on so they don't stick. They clean up really really nice. I also like the fact that there are no chemicals being released in my food. I would highly recommend these pans.

My new Cuisinart Greenware cookset smells awful and frying pans are already sticking
I've only owned my new Cuisart Greenware cookware set that I bought from Bed,Bath & Beyond for a little over a month and,although I've used all the pieces, I'm going to see if I can return the set. My frying pans are already sticking and need a wipe down with oil when I cook scrambled eggs, but my worst problem is that the set is giving off a terrible smell. I just moved to a new apartment and had lots of extra storage in my kitchen so I decided to keep the whole 5 piece set by itself in a compartment under the kitchen counter. I had used the pots gently for the first week or two as I'd never used non-stick cookware before and was feeling a bit unsure of how to use it. One day, I opened the kitchen cabinet under the countertop that I stored the pots in and was assaulted by a strong smell, something like old brussel sprouts - really nasty. At first I thought maybe it was something to do with the new kitchen cabinets and I scoured and disinfected the inside and then put the pots back in. The smell returned again so then I looked at the pots, thinking maybe I wasn't washing them sufficiently well since I'm used to just putting my cookware in the washing machine. I noticed that the 1.5 and the 2.5 pots seemed to have some kind of residue at where the waterline would have been when I had used them a couple of times to cook vegetables in. I took out all the pots and cleaned them again with soap and water,just as the directions advised, this time being extra careful to make sure that there was no residue of any sort and that all the cookware was sparkling clean. A few days later I took out the pots to check for a smell and they all smelled varying degrees of awful again. Then I thought that maybe this was some sort of gas coming from the cookware non-stick lining. I usually stored everything with their individual lids on, so I tried removing the lids and letting the pots and pans "breathe". I still have the problem. They have a faint to no smell when I first clean them but then after a couple of days the strong smell comes back. I can't continue using them as it's making me nervous about the safety of the supposedly safe, non-toxic new kind of lining. I'm going to call Bed,Bath and Beyond and also Cuisinart and see what they say and what they are willing to do regarding returning the set since I've used everything and no longer have the original packaging.

A very pleased customer
I have been searching for eco friendly and teflon free pans for the past year. I had bought several green pans of a different brand that I was very disappointed with. I was very excited when I found these, especially since they are made by a brand I know I can trust. I have been using them for about a moneth now and they work beautifully. I was also very impressed with the price of the set and that it included a few extras, like the steamer pan, which would not typically come in a set. I highly recommend this set.
