Functional and handsome, the 17 pieces in this economical Farberware set provide all the basic necessities for home cooking and baking. Each pot or pan is constructed of gleaming 18/10 stainless steel that encapsulates a thick aluminum core in the base, the "full cap" advantage that allows Farberware Classic to cook evenly without hotspots. Stainless-steel lids and black phenolic handles in traditional styling withstand oven heat up to 350 degrees F. While not as heavy-gauge as the Farberware Millennium line, Classic has long been a popular company standard.
Suitable for stovetop as well as oven use, the cookware in the set consists of: 1-, 2-, and 3-quart covered saucepans, 4- and 8-quart covered saucepots, and 8- and 10-inch nonstick aluminum skillets. For mixing and storing, three nesting stainless steel bowls with ring handles and tight-fitting plastic lids are included; for baking, a 9-by-13-inch nonstick cooking sheet, and 9-by-13-inch nonstick cake pan. All the items are dishwasher-safe, and are covered by a limited lifetime warranty. --Ann Bieri

I looked at many cookware sets at might higher prices but i decided to go with these and i am very happy. These pots are good quality and $100s less than the other sets i was looking at.

I got a set of Farberware pots when I got married 32 years ago, and I've cooked in them for my family of five since then. My set did not include the baking pans or the mixing bowls. My two skillets are not non-stick, so I can't vouch for the durability of the non-stick finish, but otherwise they appear to be comparable to mine. Lots of good food has been cooked in these pots, and they're not done yet! I think they'll be passed on down through the generations long after I'm gone.

This is a phenomenal starter set. Everything in this set is of top quality -- and a nice bonus is that it's all dishwasher safe. It includes all of the cookware you'll need to get started. Very happy with this purchase!

Just like Grandma used to have!Yes these pots and pans have been slightly updated from their older version, but they still function and clean up just as well. I purchased these because my Grandmother had a set of them my whole life and they were always dependable, and seemingly indestructible. I say indestructible because I have managed to destroy many non stick pots: scratching the coat off and melting the coat of non stick yuckyness- and that literally stinks horribly and ruins the meal and the pot! The Farberware pots and pans are heavy duty, stainless steel, and best of all- there's no non stick coating on the pots to ruin if you leave your beans unattended (in my case cleaning house) with the fire up a tad too high. The lids are not glass, they are also stainless steel. So no dropping lids and stressing the glass which in turn eventually break. These stainless steel lids sit nicely on the pots, the bell shape keeps the moisture in the pot and when the lid is removed the bell shape actually helps with not dripping the condensation on the lid all over the stove.This Farberware Classic Stainless Steel set is perfect for any cook of any age. For young cooks who are learning, for cooks who try to fold the laundry while the beans have 2 minutes left, for cooks who are a little clumsy and drop their kitchenware, and even the older much more experienced cooks who just want a good high quality classic cookware set. Regardless of the age or expertise, this set is hands down the best that is out there for anyone! And I must add- I searched everywhere including macy's, sears, walmart, target, and tons of places online. This was the only set I ever saw that was a great brand, that had stainless steel lids, and sturdy design. After moving out on my own I have ruined 3 sets of nonstick pots. I laugh now because now that I have this set, it will never happen again. The Farberware Classic Stainless Steel 17-Piece Cookware Set is the best cookware set on the market today!
