Farberware 17-Piece Nonstick Cookware Set - Red Pots and Pans with High Performance Coating, Dishwasher Safe | Perfect for Family Cooking, Baking & Everyday Meal Prep

I do not have a lot of time to be writing reviews but I am pretty displeased by these that I thought i'd share my personal experience with this pots & pans set. So initially what drew me to this set was obviously the price, it was very budget friendly. I am not a fan of cooking so I was just looking for a very basic set. I did not want to invest so much in a cooking set when I know myself enough that I won't be using them that often. So let's talk about the pros:1.Nothing was missing2.These are very easy to clean (so far) and lightweight.3.Stackable for easy storage4.I am satisfied with the color I got (Aqua)Cons and the reason for the 2 star rating:1. The whisk included in the utensil set is way too flimsy. I have a hard time mixing the boxed pancake batter.2. The cookie sheet was bent as well as most of the pots and pans having some sort of scratch/nick. (I took some pictures and will attach them later)3. This is the biggest con for me. THE SMELL. I hand washed all of the items after taking them out of the box and they are hand washed after every use. But the plastic smell is still there, it makes me sick to my stomach. I have made pancakes a few times and can't even stand to eat them because the smell is so awful.Overall, I think this set is okay for maybe a first time cook or someone that is on a very tight budget. But if you can spare a bit more for a different set I would highly recommend you do so. I will be purchasing a different set and giving this one away to anyone that wants it.They are beautiful and I’ve been wanting them for a long time. The non-stick is amazing, making them easy to cook on and clean.The only issue that I have is that the two smallest sauce pans are smaller than I thought they would be. It seems like there should be a pan between the middle and largest pans. The middle pan is a little small for certain things but the biggest pan is not some thing that I would use on a daily basis. Because of this, I ended up keeping the set of three sauce pans that I already owned. If the sizes of the three pans were a little bit different, this pan set would be perfect.These are really nice looking cookware. It's probably just the way I cook food that makes finding the "right" cookware a problem. For instance, I like to fry my eggs in the morning, usually 2 or 3. To fry eggs with this product I must use the flat skillet, not a fry pan. Instead I use a fry pan from different manufacturer. The base of the fry pans is too small. the large fry pan is 10", the base about 6". Fine if you want my 3 eggs combined as one in a 6" circle. Fry pans also don't work well for bacon or sausage for the same reason - base too small. The flat skillet is great for pancakes. It works for sausage and bacon - watch splashing grease; not so much for eggs as, for some reason, they run in all directions. The pots are great! I love them.Don't be deceived by the fact that two of the top three reviews are one star, since those seem to be situations that are out of the norm. I live in Alaska, meaning "prime" really doesn't mean anything up here, so shipping took forever (about a week and a half). When it finally did get here though I was very happy with the quality. I was apprehensive to order these since all of the cheapest cookware sets on Amazon have some reviews saying they're terrible quality, arrived damaged, or were too small to even be functional. None of these were the case with this cookware set though! Despite it being shipped across a continent, all of the lids and pots arrived in perfect condition with no dings or scratches, and the lids fit perfectly on their respective pots and pans.I've had more expensive cookware sets that didn't include a skillet, cookie sheet, or any hand tools and those sets were barely better- if at all- than this one. My only complaint is that the cookie sheet is too small to actually make more than 6-8 cookies at a time, but that's not much of an issue since I need to get a bakeware set separately anyway so now I will just have two cookie sheets in different sizes! Yes the one quart pot isn't very large, but it is standard size for any cookware set you'll find and not nearly as useless as those "one egg wonder" pans that this set mercifully omitted. All of the pieces are standard size and large enough to be functional, even the mini cookie sheet, so I think the reviews saying they are too small are mostly people who are unfamiliar with standard cookware sizes.Also for those of you wondering, the pans have angled sides (for sautéing) and not straight sides.All in all a great set for the price and I would highly recommend!Love this set so far. My baking pan was dented upon arrival, I saw this in another review, so it must be in the manner in which it's packaged. Non stick, food slides right out!I purchased this set as a wedding gift and the recipients were thrilled...just what they wanted! Loved the teal color.The product arrived a week before its estimated arrival date. Thumbs up for that! Love the colour and cooking with this cookware is amazing. The non stick surface definitely helps and makes cooking enjoyable and more pleasurable again. Was definitely a best buy so far!With all the news and what not of other certain brands releasing toxic chemicals, I did a fair amount of searching for a set that didn't contain those same chemicals and found this set.Don't get me wrong, I love this set, but the coating is ssssooooofffffttttt and if you look at it wrong with a fork, it will scratch.For non stick cooking, I'd highly recommend, for daily abused pans, go for a porcelain coated cast iron.A las tres semanas de haberlas comprado usé la olla grande para hacer unas papitas cambray doradas...¡y las mismas papitas rayaron y desprendieron el teflón al dorarse! Parece como si hubiera rayado la olla con un tenedor, terrible. Quedó inutilizable. Esta batería sólo sirve para preparar alimentos blandos como huevos y guisados. Un desperdicio de dinero para mí.Un sarten venia golpeado, por lo que la tapa ya no embona correctamente, es decir, no sella. La cacerola grande venia rallada. Aun así pensé que de todos los productos al menos me salieron tan solo dos defectuosos; sin embargo al primer uso, los sartenes y la olla se rallaron y se oxidaron mucho, tan solo llevo 2 meses y medio de uso y ya todo está para la basura. No lo compren, es de pésima calidad, me siento robada con el producto. Ojalá me pudieran hacer la devolución.Muy recomendable,Tenia tfal pero esta batería salio mucho mejor, no se le pega nada y son fáciles de limpiar aparte de que estos si tienen garantía de por vida, sin duda los mejores
