Beautiful Cookware
"I received this cookware set about a month ago. I waited awhile to review it because I wanted to make sure that my experiences with the skillets were not a fluke. I love these skillets! They are nice and sturdy and very pretty. The handle is heavy duty. The nonstick surface is truly nonstick! When cooking eggs in the skillet, I really don't need any oil. Also, they are super easy to clean. I definitely recommend these skillets."
Very nice
"These were a little smaller than I expected, but they are so nice. I make eggs for my kiddos every morning before school, and when I received the cookstart aluminum diamondmax nonstick skillets, I made the eggs with the smaller pan. No stick whatsoever. Cleaned up with a simple rinse. I love them."
Nonstick greatness!
"I love these pans! They're amazing and super nonstick. They are the most spectacular little egg makers, ever! No need to cramp the pan with butter, the eggs simply fall off. I hand wash them with finish and then seem to hold up very well."
Great non-stick and light weight
"Review for Cookstart Aluminum DiamondMax Nonstick Skillet Set, 2-Piece, Pewter. This is a good skillet and is light weight. So far food does not stick to the pan. The handle of the pan is comfortable with a good rubber grip on it."
I love them !
"I really like this double skillet set and how much food I can cook in them. the two pans are very good size, perfect for cooking any type of food, I use it to make hotcakes, eggs, enchiladas, hamburgers! I like that the food does not stick in the pan, they are also very easy to clean! I can use them in the oven without any problem! They are super strong, it does not burn deep down, they heat up quickly and are of excellent quality! I really recommend them !!"
Works on various different ovens
"I am very happy with my Skillets by Farberware. The pewter color of my skillets match well with my other cookware. I really loved that it is lightweight, oven safe up to 350 degrees, and it is able to be used on electric, ceramic, and gas ovens so it not narrow down my selections when I was in the process of buying my new oven. I would definitely recommend Farberware products to my friends."
Many useful features
"I selected the Farberware Cookstart Aluminum DiamondMax Nonstick Skillet set for my tween daughter, who is learning to cook. This two piece set includes a 10" and an 8.25" skillet. There is a versatile mixture of features which appeal to me, including the products being affordable, nonstick, lightweight, oven safe (to 350 degrees), and dishwasher safe. As my daughter is learning to cook, affordability is a must. In addition, the nonstick feature is desirable. The skillets are incredibly lightweight, and my daughter is able to hold them with ease, something she struggles with when using the (much heavier) pots and pans used by the adults in the house. While I am unsure if she will utilize the oven safe feature, their capability is reassuring. Finally, as far as clean-up, she has thus far used warm soapy water with ease, but realistically, she will eventually get lazy, and toss them in the dishwasher, so her cooking set being dishwasher safe is a necessity. I have used her set a few times and have been very satisfied with the skillets, except that I find I can only prepare small portions. If I do not limit cooking to 1-2 servings, I have food falling out of the skillet when stirring, flipping, etc. and I notice that the walls are flatter than I am used to, so when cooking for a larger family, these skillets are not a feasible option. Farberware packed quite a few useful features into these affordable skillets and I am impressed. I would recommend them to anyone seeking a starter set or those cooking smaller portions/servings."
Will be using these often!
