Pros: In many ways, I've never had such nice pots and pans -they will no doubt be passed down for the next few generations. My husband and I decided to purchase them for a new induction stove. [Many pieces of our cookware were anodized aluminum, or were stainless with aluminum clad bottoms which didn't work with induction range.] I did have a few pots to which magnets did stick when tested, but evidently, the iron content of the stainless was insufficient because they still would not work with the range. [I had planned to take a magnet with me to a housewares store in order to test the pots before buying, but after my magnet experience on a few on my own pots, I just decided to buy pans which stated 'induction ready'.] These are very attractive, work incredibly well with the induction range, food cooks beautifully in them, and they clean up quickly and easily.
Cons: They are a bit heavier than my other pots. In and of itself, that is not a problem. However, there are some design flaws which shouldn't exist. Because of the weight of even the smaller pots, they should have a helper handle (and I'm not a weakling). Also due to their weight, the handles themselves should be more substantial. They have a nice arch, but because the handle is thin relative to the weight of the pot, they slide around in the hand and compromise control. At this price, all kinks should be worked out of the design.
