Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Rachael Ray Hard Anodized Nonstick 10-Piece Cookware Set, OrangeCustomer Review: Great value, highly recommend. Summary: 5 Stars
I'm 16 years old and I love to cook. My family recently moved back home, we were victims of Hurricane Katrina, and we're finally settled in. Needless to say, we needed essential things such as furniture, kitchen supplies and more for our new and (hopefully) permanent home.
I did a bit of research and narrowed my options down to Hard-Anodized Aluminum (like this set) and Stainless Steel. After I found this great set at Bed Bath & Beyond, I went with it and haven't looked back.
This set is great. Each and every piece in this set is amazing and does what it's supposed to do correctly. Since I've gotten the set I've cooked anything and everything, from breakfast in the morning (Eggs are simple and NEVER stick) to dinner at night, you can prepare just about anything with these pots/pans.
They're really, really non stick. I haven't tested them without any type of fat (Oil/Butter) but I bet they'd be fine without it. Regardless, when cooking something like...let's say Eggs, I always toss a pad of butter in the pan (the smallest skillet is probably my favorite pan, just because I love eggs and it's the perfect size!) and the thing practically slips out of the pan when you're ready to serve. Over easy has never been this simple.
The set is also oven ready up to 400 degrees. The lids are great. If you're worried about the orange color clashing with the other colors in your kitchen, don't sweat it; for whatever reason, they seem to fit perfectly in any kitchen. The silicone handles are great and very heat resistant, they pans fit so comfortably in your hands!
All in all, you can't go wrong with this set. Think of your favorite food. It can probably be prepared with the items included in this set.
Customer Review: THE BEST PANS EVER!!! Summary: 5 Stars
I can't believe how awesome these pans are. But first of all, let me say how happy I was to see this set on sale on Amazon. My husband and I were at Kohl's on Sat. Feb. 14 and I was checking them out in the Food Network cookware section. They were on sale for $199.99 marked down from the original price of $229.99. He said "get them if you really want them" but I said they were on Amazon for $179.99 so if I was going to buy them, it would be from them but that I was in no huge hurry to order because they were always that price. The next day I received an email from Amazon that there was a two-day President's Day sale on cookware but since it was the weekend I didn't open up my mail. On Monday the 16th I checked my email and saw the complete Rachael Ray 10-piece set on sale for $125.00!!! I almost choked on my pizza! I ordered it right away and couldn't believe I'd almost missed the last day of the sale. I didn't have to pay tax, I didn't have to pay for shipping and I got the pans delivered on Wednesday. Now that's what I call service.
These pans are the best thing I've ever cooked with and I even convinced my m-i-l to get some after she saw me saute panko-breaded chicken breasts and wipe the pan right after with a paper towel - completely clean. I could have put it away in the cabinet and not even touched it with dish soap, it was that clean. My husband says I'm obsessed with them because after I wash them I dry them and put them back in the individual plastic bags each piece came in. I told him I plan on using these forever and I don't want them to get old-looking or scuffed so I baby them!
Customer Review: I love this my Rachel Ray cookware set!! Summary: 5 Stars
I hate to cook but with our economic times nowadays my family and I are eating in more often and I needed a good cookware set since all the ones we had were hand me downs, yuck! I had shopped around to find a good quality cookware set at a reasonable price and that is just what I found buying this set from Amazon. I enjoy watching the food network channel and I figured if Rachel Ray uses her own products then it must be good so I was on the hunt for her set. The set was running $199.99 at my local stores so I decided to come to amazon. At $139.99 I couldn't pass up this deal and just $3.99 for overnite with the free trial on the Prime membership, I was one click and one day away from getting my new cookware. I couldn't even get the cookware set at Bed, Bath, & Beyond with the 20% off one purchase item coupon (besides they BB&B didn't carry it at the store, only online and thank God for that or I would have spent more money there than coming to Amazon). I love the durablity of this set. The non stick is really non-stick. I don't even have to put any butter/oil in the bottom of the pan which makes for healthier cooking. The heat is evenly distributed throughout the pan so our food was cooked evenly. I love the orange silicon handles. They make for easy gripping and you don't burn yourself trying to pick up the pan. The lids also fit the 2 skillets/frying pans. This is a great product and I recommend it to anybody, even to those who don't like to cook (like me). This set has made cooking more enjoyable and I think, just maybe (wink) I love to cook now (smiling).
Customer Review: Awesome Cookware! Summary: 5 Stars
I have had this cookware for about a month now, I wanted to wait until I had used them awhile before I gave my opinion.
I LOVE this cookware!!! It is an amazing deal for the price and, I think, really compares to the high end, super expensive cookware. First, it heats just perfect, very even! With my old cookware, I had the problem of one area not being as hot and having to rotate either the pan or the food...not anymore! The pans heat up very even all over. LOVE that!!!
The weight of the cookware is awesome!! Not too heavy but not light, honestly just perfect.
Now for my favorite part, they are so easy to clean!! I admit, I hated the fact that they were not dishwasher safe but most of the "good" cookware isn't. It sucks not being able to just stick them in the dishwasher but they are super easy to clean!! Just a sponge and the food comes right off...usually the food comes off just rinsing it with some water before I even use the sponge. They also dry really easy, the water just comes right off. Clean up is a breeze with them, the non-stick is truly non-stick.
Another favorite is that when cooking something like eggs, again, just non-stick to a new level! No spray or anything is needed to keep the eggs from bonding to the pan forever. Again, GREAT non-stick!!!!!
If you are on the fence about this cookware, just jump over and buy it!!! I do not regret it. The only thing I have not done yet is put the cookware in the oven but I am looking for recipies so that I can try it. The cookware is oven safe up to 400 degrees.
Customer Review: Great set great price! Summary: 5 Stars
[...] I have had and used this cookware for about a month and I love it. There is no need to add extra oils as nothing sticks in them when you follow the cooking recommendations and use low to medium heat. Also making sure that you do not overcook helps too. I have hard water and there are no stains left insdie the pan once washed after boiling water. I love the silicone handles. They are comfotable to hold onto, especially when you have a heavy pan full and they stay completely cool to the touch. They never feel as though they are going to slip from your hand. All the pots and pans have a rolled over edge all the way around them which aids in pouring things out. The lids are perfect for taking a peak wihtout having to pull off and lose all your heat. They too have the silicone handles so you never need a pot holder to touch them. I have all plastic and silicone utensils which won't scratch the inside of the pans. They are easy to clean although you have to hand wash them. Every part of them is solid and seems well designed to last for a long time. Each handle has a loop at the end so you could hang them if you wanted to. I would buy them again!
