Rachael Ray - Create Delicious 13-Piece Cookware Set - Purple Shimmer

My rating of 4 stars is because I have not used the set for very long. Time will tell how the set holds up based on proper use and care. I like the product and for the modest cost it appears to be of good quality.

There good for a single person However I've used a lot of cookware in my life because I stay in the kitchen. I've had this cookware for only a year and I can't say it's one of the good sets out there. It's nonstick which is a plus however one scratch out of ANY nonstick material can expose you and your family to thousands of toxic chemicals. The skillet it comes with I had to throw away due to the material of the metal. It was so brown from all the scratches from mixing food. The largest deep skillet it comes with is next. This set has warped on me just by washing it and using it. Maybe it's not the best for being suitable for high temps on the stove top.

We have numerous pots and pans of this family of cookware. ALL HAVE THE EXTERIOR PAINT bubbling, peeling, flaking off. I've emailed support and they after 1 month have not returned back with a response, (they said 3-5 days in the initial reply for their review). After waiting one month I called their 800# to talk to an operator with a heavy foreign accent I couldn't understand who eventually disconnected me with no reply. Today I wrote a second time to their support center, let's see what happens. I can forward picts of every single pot and pan which look absolutely terrible, with friends and relatives that are shocked at the poor quality. The pots/pans cook fine, but when one also finds paint specs in the food being cooked (as just touching the exterior surfaces it flakes off) it deserves a poor rating.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This 13 piece set is amazing. The color is beautiful and the materials are very high quality. The food cooks evenly and everything is so easy to clean when we are done cooking. I am very happy with this purchase.

I loved my pots and pans
