When it comes to these pots I'm going to call them the 'rice lady pots and pans'. They are absolutely beautiful and immaculate. Super shiny stainless steel exterior.What I found interesting about these pots is so many of them have the bottom surfaces that are covered in small circles to make them work well on different cooking surfaces. So much so that its become basically en vogue. Not so with these, perfectly smooth stainless steel that looks absolutely gorgeous. You can see them in the ad photos.I both love and hate the handles. Love them because they're basically protective built-in oven mitts which makes it easier to hold and be able to move around without risk of burning your hand. Hate because they are WHITE. If there's any color that sets a chef's teeth on edge its white. These do not stay sparkling clean and pretty for long. They're very efficient but this is where I hurt a little while using them. I like for my things to either stay pretty or be able to hide how messy they truly are and this just doesn't live up. The stay cool handle is awesome though.In terms of size I've experienced a couple different Carote sets and I like this one best. I make a lot of family sized meals and I find that too many companies want to give me these dinky little pots that can't cook more than a mini-meal. This one is perfect for actually being able to hold a whole lot. When I used them I have a lot of surface area to work with.In terms of the quality these are amazing. Its a high cost but its absolutely worth it.

I’ve been using the CAROTE 12-piece stainless steel cookware set, and I have to say, it’s a great addition to my kitchen. The sleek white design gives it a modern, elegant look, and the stainless steel construction feels sturdy and durable.The pots and pans heat up evenly, and they work perfectly on my induction stove. The stay-cool handles are a big plus, making it easy to handle hot cookware without worrying about burns. The tempered glass lids are also a great touch, allowing me to keep an eye on my food while cooking.One thing to note is that stainless steel requires proper care to avoid discoloration or food sticking, but once you get the hang of it, it's fantastic. Overall, this set is high-quality, stylish, and functional worth considering for any kitchen!

These stainless steel pans are terrific. They're hefty, look great, and are easy to clean. Yes, good stainless can weigh a bit more than cheap pans, but they take all sorts of abuse and still come out looking like new. Preheat your skillet properly and you'll have very little trouble with food sticking.These are an excellent value, considering the number of pieces and the quality. I'm very pleased.
