SO glad I found these!
By P Gilroy on Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2022
I was searching for a dupe for a more expensive all-use pan and Google led me to this one. Since I typically like certain types of pots/pans for certain uses, I was happy to note that there was not only a sauté pan, but a Dutch oven style pot as well. I am enjoying both of them.The pot:The handle on the top of this one seems to be some kind of hard plastic, and I think it's because it's supposed to be oven safe. However, it's ONLY oven safe up to 400 degrees for 30 minutes per the instruction guide. It has smaller metal handles on each side that DO get HOT, so you'll want to have some kind of potholders or mitts at the ready when handling it. The sage green color is beautiful, and the nonstick surface on the inside of the pot is very smooth. Like many others, I cannot help wondering what it is made of, and I really hope that it is safe, because I plan to use these for many years to come if possible. I tend to cook soups, stews and chilis in a Dutch oven style pot, and this one has been extremely easy to use AND clean. It doesn't require a lot of heat to get going, and once it does I typically have to turn it down a bit. The nonstick surface is fabulously easy to clean, and I DO season the surface prior to storing it away. I also seasoned it prior to first use per the instruction guide. I have cooked chili, red beans and chicken soup, all with zero issues.The pan:This is a lovely piece of cookware to have on hand for sautéing and browning. It features a long soft touch handle on one side and a smaller metal handle on the other. Like the pot, you will want to have a mitt or potholder readily available if you plan to touch the smaller handle. The sage color is a perfect match to that of the pot. As many others have stated, it is pretty deep. I have cooked butter chicken and nacho meat and also boiled macaroni (and made the cheese sauce) in this one. All of the dishes came out perfectly, and the pan was super easy to clean. I also season the pan after use.I use silicone utensils to cook with, as I am not a fan of wooden spoons or spatulas.I noticed a bit of discoloration on the bottom of the pan after first use, and I'm not sure whether it was from letting water dry on it or what. I was able to use a cleaning paste to restore it, so I think that I will do this from time to time if I notice any further problems in the future. I also handwash these pots and will probably not put them in the dishwasher. I plan to provide an update in 3 months or so, since that is when several others have noticed issues with the cookware. As for now, I am totally in love with them and hope that that they will last for years to come.Update 1/14/2023: I no longer season the pan after each use and it is still beautifully nonstick. I'm still in love!Update: 1/28/2023: The underside of the handle of the sauté pan is singed, as I have a gas stove. I do not have the flames up high, but somehow the heat has gotten to it. Hopefully this will not effect the performance in the long run, but it COULD compromise the integrity of the handle over time.

Not as good as the all-in-one pan; handles cause burns
By Crystal M. on Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2025
The first purchase I made was for the all-in-one pan which I liked a lot. The problem with the pot is that I had assumed it would be the same width as the pan. Perhaps that was my fault for not checking, but why would a stock pot come in such a small size? It's not functional for many things. The worst part about it, however, is that the handles get super hot. I will need to buy some pot holders to be able to use this (which means I have to make an additional purchase on a purchase I already regret), I have already gotten burned as have several others. This isn't a problem with the pan so not sure why this one would be different. I probably should have returned it honestly, I guess I wanted a pretty new pot and stuck with it but I honestly hate using it.
