Greater Goods Party of Four Cook Kit - 10 Piece Nonstick Cookware Set for a Complete Kitchen | Non Toxic, Teflon Free Pots and Pans Work on All Cooking Surfaces, Even Induction (Birch White)

This set is exactly what I was expecting! These pots and pans, like other Greater Goods items weve purchased in the past, are the best quality for the cost. Simple, smart design that makes cooking just a tad bit easier. The nonstick surface works incredibly well against our creamy soups and homemade cinnamon rolls. We immediately switched out our old cookware after testing these. I find this cookware heavier than our old set, but I think that speaks to the quality.

I ordered this set from Greater Goods because I had used some of their other products in the past and always been pleased with the quality and utility. This time was no different. You can see by my pictures the care that went into the packaging and the extra details they included. It came with a quality plastic spatula and wooden spoon, both of which can be used in the pans without damaging the surface, and a soft sponge to use in cleaning it. I also appreciated the thick felt pads they included to facilitate scratch-free storage. Everything Ive cooked in these pans has cooked uniformly and come out of the pan without sticking or leaving residue. I particularly tested it with scrambled eggs and fried rice, because I often find these stick in other pans, but I had no problem with that in these. I also appreciated that it fried bacon evenly, without scorching some spots and leaving others underdone. The one slight issue I have is that its recommended to cook on medium or low in these, to avoid damaging the coating, and there are some time (such as searing a steak or making stir-fry) where I would prefer to use higher heat. As with all Greater Goods products Ive used, I appreciate the attention to detail that went into designing these pans. I know Ill enjoy using them for many years to come.

I received this product free if I would give an honest review, which I was determined to do! When the box arrived, it was big, sturdy, and extremely impressively packaged. Each pan was bagged; each handle separately wrapped; each layer separated by thick spools to keep them from scraping in shipping. Everything looked perfect. I felt like I was unwrapping the Crown Jewels. I won’t lie- just unwrapping them made me feel this was a quality product. In the front was a little package of freebies, and who doesn’t like that? A wooden spoon with two separate sizes at ends, a turner that wouldn’t scrape the pans, and a thin piece of something that was obviously good for the environment and turned out to be a cool sponge completed the freebie package. I’ve kept the pans for a month to give them a good try. I’d chosen birch color- so off-white- and wanted to see how easily they would scratch or stain. After more than a month, mine still look perfect. These pans feel heavy and sturdy. Handles and lids are very ergonomic. The whole set just FEELS good when you use it. I’ve used many non-stick pans in the past and then went to cast iron, mostly because I didn’t want Teflon buildup in my system. (Did you know this stuff never leaves your system? That can’t be good.) Anyway, being offered this healthier non-stick option was inviting for me. And, boy, does this stuff NOT stick! Cooks eggs like a dream. The instructions make it clear that these pans aren’t a good application for bacon or things you want to cook on high. This is better for low and medium heat, but I feel it cooks pretty quickly on those temperatures, so best of both worlds. The set consists of a 2 qt. Saucepan, a Dutch oven, a nice large frying skillet, and a sauté pan. We have a family of four in our house and many guests, and have found the assortment very adequate for both settings. I cook on an electric glass top flat range and have had no issues with heat conduction, scratching, etc. The only negative I’ve noticed is that the company makes a point that the handles have a spoon rest, which isn’t obvious to me. Idk if I’m placing the spoon wrong or what, but that’s not a feature that stands out to me. I leave a number of reviews on Amazon and have never received a product as a premium for a review before. I’m not even sure that they wanted me to put my review on Amazon or just email it to them, because they did ask me to do that. But, whatever, my integrity is worth more than a set of pans, so I’d tell you if there were other features I didn’t like. Just so happens, I really like these pans and am extremely happy with them.

I love these pots and pans from GreaterGoods. The nonstick ceramic heats up evenly and helps me cook with minimal oil. Because the base of the pans is a little thicker than some other pans I have owned, I do give the pans an extra minute or two to get up to temperature before adding food to the pan to saute. I love the tools that came along with the set and they have helped my family to use the right tools in the pans to keep them looking great. One downfall I have found is that the large pot handles get hot from boiling water and I needed to use potholders when draining pasta.

We own a few other Greater Goods items, but they are health related (bathroom scale, BP cuff, stethoscope, etc.). When I saw the cost of these new ceramic pans I thought, why not give them a try. We stopped using most of our old pans, due to the non-stick coating coming off, a while ago. Been using cast iron a lot. When the box arrived these pans were packed safe and securely, as GG is known to do. But as soon as I held one in my hand I was really impressed. Everything that they list in the description is true. Everything. They are light but sturdy, the handles feel great, the lids are perfectly stable when upside down on the counter, they look so sharp, and they are slick. Amazingly slick. I know this will change with use, but everything slides right off these pans. Cleaning them last night my wife, only half jokingly, said: “They practically clean themselves!” We both give this set 5 Stars. Similar sets seem to sell for $100s more. If you are wondering how the set is 10 pieces, a wooden spoon, nylon spatula, and cleaning cloth are included. We’ve only been using them for 2 weeks. I will update later this if needed. As of now, I can’t recommend this set more.

They are well packaged and feel hefty BUT nowhere that I can recall do they say in the commercial, or description to NOT use on high heat. It does say it on the instructions once you get the items. How do you boil water in the pots if not on high heat? And a few of my burners get really hot, so now what... keep an old pot just to boil stuff in and hope a burner doesnt get too hot? HOW can they be put in the oven as advertised, but not on high heat on the stove? PS, I havent used them yet as this really surprised about NOT using them on anything above medium in the instructions, and some comments. I may change my rating if theres some good explanation from the company that they really CAN be used on something above medium. EDIT: Ive used these for a month and try to not use on high heat, but my burners get hot as the cooktop doesnt work that well at regulating. CHANGING my review to 4 stars from 2 because they clean up very nicely and are well made, hoping the teflon holds out given I sometimes use a higher heat setting.

Shipping was quick and I was amazed at the packaging of the cookware. Packaging was clean and well put together to ensure that nothing would break. I bought the birch white cookware. Taking them out of the box I noticed a good weight to them (Not heavy but just felt very durable/high quality/long lasting). The handles of the cookwares feel well built and sturdy. It came with 1 sauté pan, 1 frying pan, 1 sauce pot and 1 stock pot. There were 3 lids but frying pan lid can be used on the stock pot as well. There was a spatula and wooden spoon included. I think the sponge was pretty cool too. I havent used it yet. It also came with a little booklet that lets you know what is in the box and some recipes you can use. Overall, quality is amazing for the price of everything and theyre really nice looking. I would say that the handles of the pots and pan are stainless steel with no covering. Its not a big deal. I can always get a silicone covering for the handles. Greater Goods do sell the silicone covering at a decent price. But I would highly recommend this package of cookware.

The Porsche of pots and pans Well let me start ... I do not think that I would ever write a review on packing material! But here we go: The packing was INSANE and screams QUALITY I just retired and over my lifespan, I bought lots of cookware I grew up in Europe and am very familiar with gourmet cookware (and their associated Gourmet prices...) I have never ever seen something this well packed even cookware that was 10 times the price of this set Just the packaging will impress the most difficult critic What about the cookware? What stands out are the massive beautifully sculped metal handles which by the way stay cool to the touch The nonstick ceramic surfaces are environment friendly and work in my mind 100 times better than the Tefal (T-fal) versions My background is electronic engineering so I tried one of my gadgets Using my infrared thermal camera the pots and pans showed EVEN heat (tested on an electrical furnace) According to my wife THE most important spec of cookware A lot of the T-fal pots and pans we had before are easy to clean on the INSIDE but spilled milk products on the outside might discolor the enamel and might be difficult to clean NOT on this ceramic set, both the inside and outside are soooooo easy to clean All in all an impressive set for very low price!

These are really nice. Unlike all the cookware that over the years has been called non-stick, this ceramic-coated stuff really is. I’ve had these for three weeks now, and if you don’t sear something on, they clean up with the easy wipe of a soapy sponge and a quick rinse, inside and out (if you do sear something on, the stuff either shrinks, dries, and separates on its own, or you can soak it for a few minutes). They’re nice otherwise, too: the weight is just right, and the handles are more smartly designed than any other cookware I’ve used, so that they’re much more easily gripped and there are fewer contours to trap grease and dirt. I’m never been thrilled with glass lids and don’t love these, but the small vent hole in them does reduce spillover. The handles on the lids can get too hot, which seems to be true of glass lids generally, but especially if the grips are metal. These lids also cannot be hung (I shaped some hangers especially for them, but almost no one will do that). And for my purposes, the large fry pan is too large, but I expect that won’t be true for most people. I should say that these were comp’d to me, but if I don’t like something I don’t give a positive review. I happen to be a fan of Greater Goods – I like almost (with one exception) everything I’ve got from them, always good quality for a reasonable price. I don’t have an induction cooktop yet, but on a gas range the heat in these distributes nicely. I had not intended to keep these as my primary saucepan and frypan, but I now happily use them for every meal. As I noted at the top, they’re a joy to clean, and they don’t discolor and ever have to be scrubbed. While they’re good in the other ways, that’s really what sells them for me. Note, though, that I do not use bare metal in my cookware, and I expect that these would not survive if any metal at all were to scratch the surface.

I have been using my new cookware for about 1 month and am impressed with the quality and performance for the price point. The sizes of the pots and pans are perfect for everyday use. They are sleek in appearance and appear durable to this point. They provide great heat distribution on my gas cooktop. The packaging with the products arrived were top notch. They are easy to clean and maintain with a very slick non-stick surface. I would highly recommend this cookware set!! -additional tip, the lid for the large pot fits perfectly on the the small sauté pan!!!
