These pans feel and cook as well as my Chef Sisters professional pans costing 3 times the price. The handle shape and always cool silicone handles on the pans and lids make these feel even better, and there are flip out loops if you wish to hang them. They feel substantial and solid with thick bottoms, yet feel comfortably balanced. The fry pans are French styled so pan flipping is easy. The coating is amazing, the raised circular pattern resists burning if you make a mistake, and just a drop of oil is needed for browning. Lids for everything, super deep stock pot and superb saute pan. I feel like a chef using these, and unlike the professional pans, are more forgiving of errors.The results are so much better cooking with them that I will use no others. All my pre-Circulon pans are now in the camping box.
