CAROTE16 Piece Cookware Set, Nonstick Pots and Pans, Induction Cookware Cooking Set with Frying Pans, Saucepans, Saute Pan

There are a lot of positives about this set.To start, there's a wide variety of sets available, so when I was trying to decide which to get, I envisioned the pots & pans I use the most and chose one that contained only those pieces. I was tempted to get a larger set, but ultimately I'm glad I didn't because it would have been overkill. but kudos for the huge variety!!The shipping was fast and the set was packed extremely efficiently. Minimal assembly required; it's just attaching the handles to the lids and the pots/pans. A matching screwdriver was included, which made me smile. By the way, the wooden-looking handles (they aren't actual wood) have a very nice feel to them and are beautiful.The pots and pans are gorgeous. I couldn't take a photo that did them justice, so I likely won't attach one. They're somewhat speckled, but in a pleasing way, they feel amazing, have a good heft to them, and they're high-end looking. Regarding cooking in them, it's been great. I was a little concerned that the instructions said not to use more than medium or medium-high heat on them. However, our stove, which has traditional electric burners, is old, so while I started off with them at medium-high at most, having them on high heat to boil water for pasta has not harmed them. They cook very evenly, and absolutely nothing has stuck to them. The omelette I made in the small pan came out surprisingly well. (The cheap sets of pans I've always used previously do not hold a candle to this set.) I've also used the various pots to make chili, Tuna Helper, a one-pot pasta dish, to heat up canned vegetables, and make a gnocchi dish. They were great for all. The one-pot pasta dish had a bit of tomato paste in it, and it didn't stain the pan, which is nice since the pan is very light-colored.It is a bummer to have to hand-wash, as our household was used to putting our pre-soaked pots and pans in the dishwasher. However, if this is a concern for you, I have two points to make. One is that these are so non-stick that the food comes off with a soft sponge with no muscle after just a few moments. If you have let the pan soak (make sure it is completely cooled first!), the food will come off with no real scrubbing. So hand-washing the pot and lid takes literally two minutes total. Two, hand-washing these leaves a lot more room in the dishwasher for other things, which has been an unexpected bonus for us.I feel indifferent about the utensils it came with. The ladle seems oddly-shaped to me and so does the spatula, though maybe I just need to give them a chance. I already have appropriate utensils and have been using them, and they are dishwasher-safe.My last thought is it's amazing that the pan protectors were included. Even though purchasing them wouldn't be super costly, it's a relief to not have to search for and buy them.I recommend these whole-heartedly. I'm very happy I bought them!

I love these pots so much. We’ve had them for several months now and they have held up so well they look brand new. They are so easy to clean and don’t stain (we use a lot of turmeric in our cooking) and they cook food easily. We cook all of our meals fresh, cooking at least twice a day and these just make cooking a breeze.I was afraid the light color (we have the white and gray pots) would look worn out quickly, especially since we make a lot of Indian cooking with spices that would normally stain. That is not the case. They look and stay perfect! Truly nonstick!The sizes the pots come in are just right…great for a typical family with a few kids but also roomy enough if you have to cook for more guests. The wooden part of the lids also do not get hot while cooking and have not chipped or swelled. We love also love the spouts built into the pots that make it a no-mess breeze for pouring out teas and sauces.I’m so happy. I love the price, the ease of use, the durability and how elegant they look. I even display them right on the table when guests come over for meal. No need for an additional serving platter. They are that beautiful.They also come with flannel coasters to help protect the pots and your counter. I haven’t found them necessary to use but they are a nice touch.I also should mention customer service. My set of pots came with two handles that did not fit two of the pans. I emailed customer service with pictures and a video and they explained to me that they were paired with the incorrect handles. They sent me two new pans of equal or better value and followed-up to make sure I was satisfied. Superb and speedy customer service.I’ve never been one to shy away from expensive cooking wear. I’ve owned Green Pans for year and was looking at Caraway for my next purchase. My husband saw these and bought them. I doubted the quality at the price point.Well, these definitely are an incredible value for the price. I would certainly repurchase but it doesn’t seem like I will have to any time soon—at least not for me because these pots look they will last a long time.They would make a fabulous housewarming gift, though!

I absolutely love the Carote Cooking Pot Sets! It’s versatile, easy to use, and performs flawlessly. Whether I’m sautéing veggies, searing steak, or even baking, this thing does it all. The even heat distribution and adjustable temperature settings make cooking so much easier, and cleanup is a breeze thanks to the non-stick surface. It’s sturdy, looks great in my kitchen, and saves me from using multiple pots and pans. Worth every penny—highly recommend!I recently reached out to Carote support with a minor issue, and they were more than happy to assist me.

I love the color of these as well how easy they are to clean. They are truly 'nonstick'! They are quite durable. Definitely would buy matching pieces if needed. I recommend these! Great value!

I wanted to make the switch to a nonstick style pan and thought a ceramic set would be my best bet. This was set was on an incredible deal and I snagged them up.I've had the set for more than a few months now. Some of my thoughts, first the good. I like the look of the pans as they are very stylish. They do not stick and my first test was an over medium egg and the surface was evenly heated and cooked properly. I am happy the size of the pans and pots and versatility they offer.The bad. The bottoms of the pan are beginning to discolor slightly. I have a gas range and the you have to be pretty cautious on not burning the wood handles on accident. The handles do get hot.But all in all a good investment and I am really happy with the set so far.
