Martha Stewart Emmeline Premium Nonstick PFA Free Ceramic Interior 12 Piece Heavy Gauge Enamel Aluminum Pots and Pans Cookware Set - Linen White

This set comes with some very pretty, sleek-looking pots and pans. They're lightweight and easy to lift, which I really appreciate. Not all of them come with lids but the ones that do close so tightly that it almost lets you pressure cook things if you want to (they have a little hole in them for ventilation, otherwise they're sealed and perfect!). They feel thinner than pots and pans I'm used to, but I've heard ceramic spreads heat more evenly, so this makes sense. With stainless steel pots, if I cook rice, it can burn easily and quickly, but this didn't do that and I was so impressed.Cleaning these was a dream due to the the "slippery" nature of ceramic. A quick wipe between frying can even be sufficient sometimes, much easier than my teflon pans. On that same note, it's SO easy to transfer things from these to plates or other pots/pans because of the "slippery-ness."One thing to note, this does say it comes with a "dutch oven" but it's just a big ceramic pot, not really a dutch oven. I'm not too mad about it but if that's why you're purchasing this set, I'd suggest looking elsewhere.

Some of our pots and pans were pretty beat up and in need of retirement so I chose this set to replace them. I was partly interested in these due to them being ceramic coated aluminum. At some point a pan of this type entered into our collection and I liked it so I thought it would be cool to have a whole set. I got it in the black exterior color.Out of the box, I really liked the way they look. I liked the rounded bottoms and the long low profile/flat handles which I discovered made it easy to gently nest the pots and pans in order to save space. The flat lids can also be inverted to allow for stacking the pots if desired. Included in the set are four pots, four lids, two skillets, and two wooden utensils (a spoon and a spatula) which are nice and thick.The non-stick surfaces are legit and work very well, so well compared to our old cookware that the lack of resistance I felt when scooping food out with the provided spoon seemed strange to me. Clean up with soap and water was easy enough. I checked the box for the Dishwasher Safe logo and it did have it. You can wash these in the dishwasher but handwashing is recommended to make the ceramic coating last longer. I have run them through the dishwasher a couple times when I was too busy to hand wash and they came out fine. However, I understand that doing that too often will shorten their life.So far I haven't found anything I don't like about this set. They look nice and work well.

This set works well and fits all my cooking needs that my normal stainless doesn’t. They clean up extremely well and distribute the heat perfectly. The black color is true to the listing. I am not sure of the durability however. I have noticed a couple of scratches on the finish mostly on the rim. We don’t use any metal tools while cooking with these so it must have scratched when stacking in one another or on the drying rack. The other thing I noticed is in the larger pot there is now a ring line on the bottom inside. I have no idea where this came from but appeared after we made chicken Alfredo one night. Idk if it was too hot for too long but it’s kind of annoying there is now a ring in the bottom. Maybe the heating element from my ceramic stove caused it. Either way it doesn’t change how it cooks it is more of an appearance thing which stinks for how much these cost. Overall they work well, clean up quickly and nothing sticks so can’t ask for too much more.
