Set doesn't live up to KitchenAid standards.
I got a set just like this as a Christmas gift two years ago. I'm a fan of KitchenAid and I have a lot of appliances and gadgets from them but this particular set was a disappointment... maybe I just got a "lemon".
Within less than 6 months of use the nonstick coating on both pans started to chip off forming a couple of unsightly "holes" on the surface of the pans leaving me wondering if my family is ingesting tiny pieces of that coating with pancakes and omelets... The pans have never gone in the dishwasher (even though it says "dishwasher safe") and I only use wooden and silicone spatulas with them. I ended up throwing the two pans away shortly after since I didn't have a receipt or keep the warranty paperwork for it. The sauté pan while still in use and with the nonstick coating intact got warped after about a year balancing itself on one middle point on my flat top range... On the positive side the pots are still fine but I don't use them much the handles are very comfortable and the color adds to a cheerful kitchen.
Bottom line it's a nice "pretty" set but if you plan to actually cook in it I would not recommend it based on the experience I had with it.
