I have had my pot set for over a year now. I love them! They cost about the same as other high end pot sets but the quality is better. I got tired of buying cheap crap sets that fall apart so I bought more expensive ones from high end stores and those still fell apart. Finally I have a great set that is versatile, virtually stainless, and has even heat distribution. I can't tell you how many high end pots I have bought that end up with heat burn marks on the inside and outside from the cheap metal. Did I believe everything they told me in sales pitch about lifetime coverage and being completely non-stick? No. Not many products can really have a lifetime warranty and sometimes food is going to stick to a non-stick pan. I may have to buy new ones in 8-10 years but it is better than buying new pots every 2 years. And when I am ready, I will buy from them.
