"Works well with smaller stoves, gripping nicely. Pot handle is good. Bowls are rounded for easy cleaning. One of the bowls in not coated, just anodised finish inside.

The non-stick coating is not the most durable and the neoprene type cover for keeping things warm/packing away has NEVER fitted the set again once it was used a first time."

"Great product. . . very well made and the pot warmer, believe it or not works well. . . cook the food then put it in a bowl and cover. . . will stay warm even on cool days.

The pans / pots work well the non stick coating is great and durable and the ridge bottom makes them stable too."
