This is my first experience with Rachael Ray cookware. When I removed the cookware from the set I first noticed how light weight it was. I then noticed the attractive orange handles and the beautiful clear lids. It's not high end cookware but it would be welcome in many or most homes.
I used the skillet to saute tofu and it browned nicely even at a medium heat level. I didn't use any oil in the pan and just let the tofu do its thing. I have also sauteed vegetables using just a touch of water without added oil and it also worked out beautifully.
I heated some almond milk for chai and forgot about it. That could have resulted in quite a mess with some other types of cookware but it cleaned up quickly and still looked brand new.
What I liked:
* The design is very modern and attractive.
* The glass lids have a sturdy rim that is designed so food will not be easily trapped
* The orange handles are non-slip and easy to grip and they keep very cool while cooking
* The small size pots are very handy and the 6 quart stock pot is a nice small-size stockpot that I'm finding a much better size for my use.
* Cleanup was super easy
What I didn't like:
* The pots seem to be about half the thickness of most of my other pots and pans. While I don't think they would dent easily if dropped they don't have a sturdy well made feel to them.
* When compared to my Calphalon they also do not have the same quality hard anodized finish on the outside.
* The nonstick coating doesn't feel as high quality as other brands. So far so good though!
* The pans do not have a thick bottom and seem to heat unevenly. My food scorched quickly so cooking time and technique will vary from my other cookware.
I think this would make a great starter set for someone just starting out on their own. Despite the few flaws (IMO) that I noted above I am enjoying using this cookware and cooking just became a little more fun!
