 Best CookwareJan 02, 2003
By Melissa Rhodes
I just replaced all of my cookware with the Circulon 2 and I love it. It cooks faster than other brands I've owned. It's also a lot easier to clean. The only drawback is that you cannot wash it in the dishwasher, but it is so easy to clean that I don't think I'll miss it that much.

they are the greatest!Jan 11, 2007
By Laura Amini
Circulon is not as popular as Calphalon or Analon, but I think it is superior to either of them. I have had my set of pans for nearly 5 years and there's not a scratch on any of the pieces. My daughter has had her set for 7 years with no scratches. The tiny ridges on Circulon are what seems to account for this phenomenon. Both Circulon and Analon are smooth surfaced. I love my pans so much that I just recently bought a complete set for my son and his wife. Highly recommend Circulon pans!

Excellent SetSep 08, 2005
By Emily
Cannot say enough good about this set. My fiance does most of the cooking, and I let him pick out the cookware for our registry. What a great choice -- I love cooking with them too! Everything heats so evenly and quickly. I was a bit worried when it said not to use on 'high' for electric stoves, but it heated so quickly on the '7' setting, it was faster than my old teflon set on high! Also won't miss that you can't dishwash them -- they clean so easily! The ergonomic handles are great, too. Excellent set, hands down.

Singing the praises of a skillet is embarrassingDec 04, 2008
By mateo52
"invisible man"
Due to a confluence of circumstances four years ago when I was in the market for a new set of cookware I was able to try out 10" skillets from Anolon and Circulon classic. After using each for a few days, I felt the Circulon unit with its' ridged non-stick interior surface heated more efficiently and was easier to clean. After a price check, I decided to purchase the full set. However, when I saw the subtle changes in the beveled interior configuration of the Circulon2 cookware I decided to opt for this set. I have been pleased with performance ever since.
My basic criteria included:
- Cost efficiency
- Attractive for display on cookware hanger
- Durable with riveted handles
- Oven safe
- Non-stick
- Had full complement of open stock items
Anolon and Calphalon might be a more prominent names, but dollar for dollar, Circulon outperforms. The anodizing process this company employs is impressive. With minimal care and maintenance ( cleaning smudges and hard baked external areas with vinegar and water solution) the set looks as good as the day I bought it and it is an everyday set. I detest the need to tighten handle screws periodically with some cookware and in this case, the riveted feature as been outstanding. I have found no evidence of the flaking problems some users have reported with the Classic set. The pans seem to distribute heat much more evenly than I found to be the case with Anolon so most food can be prepared on lower temperature settings. It can be seamlessly transferred to the oven for baking temperatures up to 350 degrees.
Just about the only downside is the inability to place the pans in the dishwasher but with the ease of cleaning that never becomes a major concern. Supplemental pieces can be found at competitive pricing from a number of retail outlets. If I ever needed to replace cookware again, I would make the same choice but with consideration to the lifetime guarantee, these pots and pans are likely to outlast me, and look better doing it.
