"I got this set for my birthday. I really liked it, they are light and easy to use! The only prob is the non stick surface, easy to scratch. But I use plastic spoons and haven't had a problem."

"It is an aluminum pot, there is not much else to say. The not stick coating is easily scratched and has bubbled up all over my pot. The pot lifter leaves large scratches in the coating if you are lifting your pot with more than a cup of water in it."
