I got this set for Christmas and was so excited. I did all my research and knew what I was getting into with Stainless Steel. I don't have any problems with clean up with this set, just soak it a little or wash immediately after cooking and no problems. It still looks beautiful today. However, like the others my small pot leaks at the rivets in the handles. Now unlike the others my set came with no "instructions" or information about the manufacturer. So I had to research with Amazon's help how to send it back for warranty coverage. Meyer Corporation is the name of the company who holds the warranty. Now I sent this back at /the end of Feb. and they were recieved on 2/24/09 and I have not heard from the company yet. I submitted a help ticket about this on Monday of this week, I was told within two days I would have a response. Today is Thursday and no response. I wish there was a way for Rachel to know what kind of Customer Service her fans were recieving for her manufacturers. Anyway, other than I am now down 1 pot I love this set. I wish I could have gotten satisfaction from the warranty dept. and then I wouldn't have a complaint.

Nice set for the price. I'm switching over from "non-stick" so I was a little hesitant about sticking & clean-up. But, it hasn't been bad at all. I did have to look up how to get the white spots out of the skillet (water & vinegar). I just wish there were larger pieces that matched this set!Best Deals for Cheap Download Rachael Ray Stainless Steel 10-Piece Cookware Set
I'm an experienced cook, and I'm also something of a foodie (try my green peppercorn duck it holds up nicely against any high-end restaurant's version). And I know a good deal when I see one. But let's be frank: Not everything is always as it seems, right? Well, in this case, WRONG! The Rachael Ray 10-piece stainless steel cookware deal is *exactly* what it seems and then some.In my 45-plus years of cooking and entertaining, I've deliberately stayed away from cookware "sets." Every pot and pan I've purchased has had a purpose, and I've bought each piece in only the size and materials that work for me.
However, I've now moved into a smallish apartment and I'm downsizing. With comparatively limited kitchen storage space, I wanted a set of cookware that would perform across all or at least most of my cooking needs: Not too many pans, not too few. I also knew it had to be stainless steel, it had to have aluminum cores (or at least bases), and I was hoping for at least a few glass lids. And I did NOT want to pay a fortune.
Enter the Rachael Ray 10-Piece Stainless-Steel Cookware Set: Ten gorgeous, multifunctional, eminently practical pieces of well-constructed, heavy-duty stainless steel cookware. The thick, flat aluminum bases ensure even heating; the slight rounding of the interiors from base to side makes them work much like sauciers or chef's pans (*very* desirable!); the slightly flared but crisp edges allow pouring without dripping; the high-angled, silicone-padded handles are easy on the wrist and cool to the hand; the well-fitted lids close snugly for steaming or rest securely at a tilt for releasing steam; the lids for the saute pan and the Dutch oven also fit the 10-inch skillet, and the lid for the Rachael Ray Stainless Steel 3-qt. *Shallow* Saucepan (bought separately) also fits the 8-inch skillet...what more can I say?
Well, I can say this, for those who find too many foods sticking to their stainless steel cookware: STOP SCORCHING YOUR FOOD! If you want to sear everything, buy a carbon steel wok; you'll never be happy with stainless steel. And for those who don't like hand-washing their cookware, go ahead and put it in the dishwasher: That won't actually damage the cookware (though you'll probably void its warrantee) but *any* stainless steel cookware will eventually become dull and discolored from caustic dishwasher detergent.
Is this set a deal, at $179.95? No, it's a STEAL. (Go ahead and price a few so-called "higher-end" sets: Comparable groupings cost as much as $1,000 and pieces bought individually cost even more.) Rachael Ray knows her way around cookware, and she also knows her audience: people whose interest is in cookware that works, accessibly priced. Way to go, Rach!!!
Honest reviews on Cheap Download Rachael Ray Stainless Steel 10-Piece Cookware Set
I just received this set for Christmas and I love it! I too was nervous about switching from non-stick, but it hasn't been too bad. Just make sure you spray with non-stick before making hashbrowns!! LOL The set is beautiful and functional. LOVELOVELOVE the glass lids and grippy handles. The only thing it needs is a larger pan as the two provided are fairly small. I went ahead and bought Rachael Ray 5 Quart Hard Anodized Orange Oval Saute Pan with Helper Handle to complete the set.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Cheap Download Rachael Ray Stainless Steel 10-Piece Cookware Set
I've used my set for about three months now and am very pleased. What I like most are the glass lids and cool-to-touch handles. I've had glass lids before but those handles are awesome.I wouldn't call these stainless steel in that the inside are more of a brushed material and so cleaning is different. I did have one burned item in the pot (for three months use, one disaster is pretty good for me)! The burn cleaned very well but I did need to scour the inside to get the evidence of my lack of skill out of the crevices of the pot. It's not really hard to keep clean but does require a little bit of strength; and, for the record, I have arthritis and didn't find it too much to handle.
I read a couple review of people complaining of leaking at the screws. I purposely boiled in each pot and personally haven't had that problem (thankfully!) so maybe their redesigned this aspect of it.
All in all, I'm quite happy. They're pretty, useful and safe to use and clean. We don't need to use those non-stick pans anymore. They're bad for pets especially birds. Better safe than heartbroken.
I would definitely recommend this set. Great price too.
