Cuisinart Chef's Classic Stainless-Steel 14-Piece Cookware Set

Cuisinart Chef's Classic Stainless-Steel 14-Piece Cookware Set Review

I've owned this set for over two years. We have not babied this cookware; it's used a lot. The pots, pans and lids are always washed in the dishwasher and turn out sparkling clean. They've also had burnt foods and drips down the side and bottom which comes right off with a little, and I do mean a little, elbow grease and bar tenders friend. The inside of the pans is scratched from the metal utensils I've used but do you really want the inside of your pot or pan to be pristine? The outsides and bottoms of the pans ARE pristine. My daughter is currently completing a wedding registry and I am HIGHLY recommending this set to her. Could I give a better recommendation?
