Did my homework and decided on a cookware set that did not have a frying pan. No frying pan. no problem. Why? I thought that the 2 inserts that came with the sets; that fit the pots perfectly was a more valuable trade-off, when I could get the frying pan separately. (I added the Duxtop 12 inch with lid, so I could fry 2 whole fishes at the same time.)
I loved the two-toned finish on the outside. (This was after liking the cuisinart set that had this feature)
Loved the measuring marks on the inside.
I loved the fact that the lids all had 3 tiny steamholes in them.
Loved the price for 12 pieces.
Loved the fact that ALL the pans had curves edges for drip-free pouring
Loved having the set with both a 1 quart and a 8 quart. (Each pot is twice the size of the one before...1, 2, 4, 8)
Loved the shape of the handles. (The handles are simple but I love the high curve. It looks "Frenchy".)
Currently love the weight/feel of the pieces.
Cons:
No frying pan.
Amazon should put more pics to showcase the features of the set.
Starfrit does not have a frying pan sold separately that coordinates with this set. If they did, I would have purchased it, instead of another brand.
So far I have used the 1, 2, 4, quarts saucepans and the 3 quart sautepan. No need to use the barkeepers friend as yet. Had to use the water/vinegar combo to deal with white spots left after washing. I have used stainless pans before (not tri-ply) so I know what a stainless steel pan looks like after years of use. I bought this set without an amazon review. Went to a Canadian website for that. Very pleased with the purchase. Wish more users would review this item. I compared duxtop/american kitchen/cooks standard & cuisinart sets before I decided. Only looked at multi-ply sets, since I did not want any with the disc on the bottom. I called this set the sleeper set, because I think I found a hidden gem among the tri-ply sets. Cat Cora did too, but having her name on the set simply makes it cost more. The quality is still the same.
Will add more if anything changes after using for a longer time. Thanks for reading.

I'm not a gourmet cook. I'm a single male construction worker that likes to cook for my ladyfriends, and also want my kitchen and appliances/cookware to look nice. Not only does this set look great, but it really cooks quite nicely. Good, even heat distribution,and easy cleaning. Much heavier than any of the other stainless tri-ply that I looked at . I have several nice cuisinart pots but I like these better. I am very pleased with both Amazon and Heritage (stamped on the bottom of the pans). When I bought these, there was only one review and it helped significantly. I have had these for about three months now and have had no problems of any kind. I have recommended them to friends.Best Deals for Starfrit Dolce Vita 12 Piece Stainless Steel Tri Ply Cookware Set
