Bought these because I bought a similar set for my mom maybe 2 years ago. The old set was fantastic and built well.

This new set is much much cheaper. It's been maybe a month and there is noticable wear - the logos are worn off, the coating is all scratched up (we don't use metal utensils) and they have just general shoddy build quality.

But the worst is the lack of balancing. If you're cooking something light (like an egg) the pans won't balance and don't sit flat on the burner, causing your food to sit and cook unevenly.

Product looks sturdy and works fine. The problem is the smell. Every time we use them it smells like toxic burning plastic and the fumes fill the entire house. We’re getting rid of them because we’re concerned that it could cause health damage.

The pan was completely defect and also the lid was broken! There was also a dent in the saucepan! Really bad quality...I can't imagine how this can even happen!

I have not had time to use all the items in the set yet, but the VERY first time I used the smaller frying pan to simply cook 3 eggs, over easy, with little butter - part of coat burnt INTENSELLY. I tried washing and using A LOT of fat to cook two other times - where it is burned dark, it just sticks forever. I was expecting low quality, but this is bizarre. If you are going for nonstick, this is not for you.

Depending how you look at these pots and pans will help you rate these. For the price they are excellent pots and pans. As a starter kit they have been doing a great job so far. They are by no means the best cook ware you can get so if you want the highest quality you should spend some more money. These pots and pans are light but are quick to heat up. The non stick surface had worked perfectly and will last if you take care of it.

Don’t buy these thinking you’re getting the best. These are great for the price and great as a starter kit for your kitchen. Expect to replace them by a year end or so.

Smelled like the house was on fire when I used all the pans. Junk save ur $$ Don't Buy!!

This product was not worth, the handle broke off from one of the pans

I can't believe how great the quality of this nonstick eight piece set is. Had never bought from Amazon basics before and was drawn to these bc of low price and good ratings. My advice - don't spend $300 or more on pots and pans before trying this for $35. Also remember to wash right after using to keep nonstick quality at highest performance. Will def be buying from Amazon Basics more often!
