Cuisinart Classic Stainless Steel 8-Piece Cookware Set - Love this better than my Calphalon

I got this set as a birthday gift from my husband. I've had them for a week and I've made every sticky food I can imagine in them (except candy). Even the polenta, eggs and oatmeal did not stick. I love the fact that I can sear meat and finish it in the oven. Also, being able to keep food in the pan & brown/broil under the broiler is A++. Clean up is easy. I did make some grilled ham & cheese sandwiches that left a little yellow residue from the margarine. However a little Bar keepers best friend took care of it in a jiffy. The handles are warm, not hot so I can handle them without pot holders on the stove.
I can't wait to buy more pieces! The food taste great & the pans are nice looking.
