 Love It December 15, 2006
I am a housewife and mother and I have a family who LOVES to eat. I am italian so I am ALWAYS cooking. I have had this set since I got married 3 years ago. The only scratches on these were made by my little brother who used a metal fork fork and spoon in them. The lids have no problems with the seals, others must have gotten a bad set which can happen with anything you buy. This is a great deal for the price. I know I still have plenty of life left in my pans. Very even heating and I do NOT put mine in the dishwasher. As long as you take care of your nonstick cookware it will last.
Great product - recomment to get it November 8, 2006

i have been using this t-fal sets for over 7 years and have been very happy with them. there is one thing, though, it only lasts for about 2 years and then you need to throw it out and get a new set.
Unbeatable value, if you get it on sale August 8, 2006

I purchased this set roughly four years ago, possibly longer, and it still looks relatively new. I think they'll last as long as I want them around. They're feather light and the nonstick still performs flawlessly. The thermospot seems a gimmick, I don't need a spot to tell me when the pan is hot, but it does work, which is admittedly cool. The light weight of these pans make cleanup a snap, and heat spreads quickly and evenly.
The people who complain about the nonstick cracking or coming off must be clueless to cookware care. Hand wash ANY nonstick items you have, dishwashers do a wonderful job of ruining the finish. Cooking on your stove's "high" setting is not only unnecessary, it's harmful to your pans (as stated in the manual). Lastly, be sure you're using utensils appropriate for nonstick. People that ruin cookware and blame it on the craftsmanship rank up there with those who say their $300 knives rusted after leaving them overnight in the dishwasher.

This is one of the best purchases I've ever made when buying products for my kitchen. The T-Fal items are light weight, easy to handle and absolutely non-stick. I'm extremely happy with my selection
 bad quality - a review after long term use June 2, 2006
12 out of 17 found this review helpful
I brought T-fal pans from my local Sam's Club wearhouse, and initially, the pans worked great. this is my review after about 1.5 years of use:
1. the handle on the lid (plastic) broke after about a year.
2. the non stick coating began to crack from regular use in about about 6 month, and it got so bad that i tossed the pan out in about a year and half.
3. the handle broke twice on me and for both time i super glued them back on. on the third time, i just tossed them out and got an expensive Anolon titanium non-stick set.
4. the pan is not made of aluminum and there are "hot / cold" spots on the pan. the hot / cold spot is caused by uneven distribution of heat. a good pan, generally with copper or aluminum core will evenly distribute heat. this pan does not.
bottom line:
do not use this pan in the oven eventhough the instruction said up to 400 degrees. the handle will and did crack on me for 3 times with occasional oven use.
the pan is thin, and does not distribute heat well. and the worst: the non-stick coating is a joke.
i found out that it's actually cheaper to get a expensive set and use it for like 10 years instead of getting a cheap set for a third of the price and replace it every 2 years or less.
not recommended.
