LEGEND COOKWARE3 Ply Stainless Steel Pots and Pans Set | 10-Piece, Induction, Non-Toxic, Oven Safe | Best 18/8 Full Clad | Premium Kitchen Cooking, Professional Chef Quality | PFOA, PTFE & PFOS Free

I waited a few months before writing this review because I wanted to test the pots and pans first. I purchased the 11-piece set in January, and I couldn’t be more pleased. This is my first stainless steel cookware set (I finally parted ways with my old non-stick set), and I’ve been thoroughly impressed with the quality. Not only are these pots and pans beautifully designed, but they’re also solidly constructed and feel very durable. The packaging was excellent — each item came with protective cardboard inserts and wrapped in soft cloth sleeves, which I really appreciated.Before using the set, I followed the recommended cleaning instructions and I’ve had no issues with food sticking. Cleaning has been incredibly easy — just warm water, soap, and a non-abrasive sponge (or sometimes even just a paper towel). On the rare occasions when something left a stain or slight discoloration, a small amount of Bar Keepers Friend brought everything back to looking brand new.I make sure to preheat the pans as advised, and they heat evenly on my gas stove. The handles are ergonomic and don’t get too hot to the touch, and while the pieces have a nice heft to them, they’re not overly heavy or cumbersome.The variety of pot sizes in the set is great, though I do wish a 2-quart saucepan had been included — hopefully that might be added in the future (maybe even as a piece that can be purchased separately).Overall, I’m thrilled with this set and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for high-quality stainless steel cookware at a very reasonable price point. As a bonus, the owner personally reaches out after purchase, which is a thoughtful and refreshing touch.

Over all I think this was a GREAT purchase. I am trying to stay away from any and all nonstick at the moment with the stuff coming out about Teflon etc. Plus, anything that causes toxicity in birds feels like maybe we shouldn't be cooking on it.... but that's just me. Besides the point i was on the hunt for a good set of stainless cookware that is reasonably priced. We cook on a near nightly basis and i'd say I am an avid cook and like to experiment but am no chef by any means. For the last three years or so we had been living in fully furnished units which allowed me to experience a great deal of mostly subpar cookware. all that to say I wanted something decent and good that I would enjoy cooking on, but didn't want to spend a fortune. These absolutely fit the bill. They feel great with good heat distribution when cooking on them. The handles stay nice and cool (seems like a no brainer but several years of subpar cookware make this a huge plus that needs to be stated in my mind) I've had zero issues with cleaning, since these are not non stick some buildup is expected while cooking certain things ... but they always come off when cleaning. the fact that you can plop these into the dishwasher is a huge plus as well. We did do the alcohol pretreatment on all but one (my husband didn't read instructions) and would recommend doing that for preventing staining. Over all this feels and looks and cooks like a really solid cook set and I would highly recommend this set.

I've waited a while to write a review to make sure I have used these pans to get a good feel of what I like and don't like. I've primary owned All-Clad--5ply anodized and copper clad cookware. I believe the Legend pans are every bit as good and better in many ways. The copper core pans are exceptional at heating quickly, heating evenly and cooking perfectly. The handles of the Legend are nearly perfect. They are long enough to offer good leverage (the pans are heavy!), but it's the shape of the handle that's exceptional. The thumbprint like indent along the handle fits your hand perfectly and makes picking them up feel so stable.The collection of pans included in the set is perfect. They cover all the needed sizes for any kind of cooking and the fry pans are BIG--in a wonderful way. They are deep as well making it easy to cook a variety of food from pan fried foods to braised meats. The inside of the stock pots are etched with volume measurements which makes for a convenient way to judge the amount of liquid. They stock pots seemed a first a bit small, but they are larger than they seem at first and the selection of 4 sizes has covered just about all areas I typically need. I have no problem having 5-6 pans going at any one time and the variety of sizes is great for fitting the pans all across the induction cooktop. The stockpot/soup pot is HUGE. Its really deep but doesn't have an overly large footprint, so it works great for larger quantities of liquid without taking up too much real estate.These pans have been phenomenal on my induction cooktop. They heat up very quickly and I've never had such even heating(in part due to the nature of induction, but also due to the copper core). The personally think they are aesthetically more pleasing that most of the cookware out there and with 3 handle color choices, its easy to pick the look you are going for.I felt like I took a bit of chance buying a unknown/less known brand of cookware, but I'm THRILLED with the performance of these pans. I've catered and regularly cook for dinner parties as well as family gatherings, and these pans and wonderful in everyday use. The large set has everything I need. I couldn't be more impressed.

I'll say first, wow, the quality on these is primo for the price point. After unboxing and washing I am blown away by the finish on these. They are heavy, but I'm used to super thin non-stick pots/pans. The handles are great and the lids are simple, but perfect.After the first use I felt a little let down, but I was using all new pans on an all new range. After the second use I'm getting the hang of it. Don't overheat them, medium heat, give it time to heat entirely, then add your oil/butter/etc. Don't rush your cooking, just let the pan do its thing.Sauce pans are great, thick bottom = no more burnt sauce. I'm so happy to have this set in my kitchen now. Beyond stoked to use these for years to come.
