About T-fal Initiatives Nonstick Cookware Set 18 Piece
Overall Feedback:
88% positive
83% found it scratch resistant, yet 17% noticed scratches after some use
My pans are forming bubbles and peeling off the Teflon after a short life span.
The pot easily gets scratched even with a wooden or Teflon spoon, and over time, it has many scratches.
After using the pots for a few weeks, several pots are scratched through to the aluminum.
The pots scratch easily and their coating gets into the food.
84% liked the non-stick performance, yet 16% experienced sticking issues
The cookware set has a non-stick surface that makes it easy to clean and use less oil. It is also dishwasher safe.
The kitchen-cookware-set has good non-stick performance and handles without sticking or too much mess.
After two years of usage, the non-stick coating on my two skillets stopped working.
80% liked the snug lid fit, whereas 20% found the material light
One of the pots had a significant dent, making the lid unfit for use.
While boiling anything, the lids get too hot to touch and the plastic lid cover handle gets super hot.
84% appreciated the heat distribution; however, 16% found it uneven
I made caramel sauce from scratch and was impressed to achieve perfection on medium heat despite all the recipes suggesting the use of cast iron or a very heavy bottom pan for even heat distribution.
The biggest problem with the pots/pans is the heat distribution. It takes a long time for them to get warm and even longer for things to cook in them. The heat doesn't seem to distribute evenly across the bottom surface.
80% liked the handle comfort, while 20% found them uncomfortable
The long handle of the pan allows for a comfortable grip from a distance.
The handles are ergonomically designed for a comfortable grip, reducing the risk of accidents in the kitchen.
I have to keep a large flat head screw driver near the stove top in order to tighten the handles of the pan.
84% highlighted the ease of cleaning
I like the non-stick feature of the pans because it makes cleaning up easy and they heat up fast.
The cookware's nonstick property makes it easy to clean.
The cookware has a non-stick surface that makes it easy to clean and is dishwasher safe.
It's very easy to clean the cookware by putting it in water for a couple of minutes.
85% appreciated the durability, whereas 15% found it less sturdy
I have been using these pots daily for a long time and they are not showing any signs of wear. I believe they will last for years to come.
I only get around 2 years of use from the cookware sets before needing to replace them as they are not very durable.
