 Like her dynamic cutlery, Rachael Ray cookware first enchants the eye before you even realize how well you can cook with it. The handsome charcoal-gray, hard-anodized pots and pans feature shiny stainless-steel handles wrapped with neon-orange silicone grips that practically glow with the kinetic energy of this celebrity chef. It'll come as no surprise that orange is Ray's favorite color. A smile is practically guaranteed each time you pull one of these pans out of the cupboard or see them hanging by your stove. As for cooking, hard-anodized aluminum heats quickly and evenly, resists scratching, and is incredibly durable. The interior nonstick finish allows food to slide right off. You're good to go with this 10-piece set of commonly-used cookware. Included are 1-1/2- and 3-quart covered saucepans; 8- and 10-inch open French skillets; a 6-quart covered stockpot for big batches of pasta and chili; and a 3-quart/10-inch covered sauté pan. The glass lids let you monitor cooking without losing steam or nutrients, and feature stainless-steel rims and handle with those same neon-orange silicone grips. Every piece is oven-safe to 400 degrees F, so you can start a dish on the stovetop and finish it with a hot bake-through. For the best care, washing the nonstick cookware by hand is recommended. An excellent gift, the set is covered by a lifetime limited warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri What's in the Box

Customer Review: I love this set!!!
I got this cookware set as an early Christmas gift to replace a really cheap set (but functional) from a few Christmases ago. I am very happy with this set and the great deal I got on it. I went back and forth between lots of hard anodized sets but settled on this set because of the handles. I love how you don't have to use a hot pad on the handles! They are not as heavy as I thought they would be but they cook very evenly and are easy to work with. To keep them from getting scratched up I got some Pampered Chef cookware protectors and they work great. The only thing I don't like is that I can't seem to find individual pieces to add to my set that match. There is a small saucepan but that is the only piece I could find. Overall, this a great set for a great price. Kohls had it on Black Friday for $169 and Amazon had it for $139 with free shipping. I wish I had this set a long time ago and hope that it will last for several years.
