Farberware Glide vs Tramontina Gourmet 12-Piece Tri-Ply Clad Cookware Set

The problem because worse and now we are not able to use it, I cannot get some scrambled eggs off the pan ! I believe since it is only the one pan in the set, the non-stick was not applied correctly. Unfortunately, we waited to long and now the return window has closed. UGH

That is for cast iron because cast iron absorbs the oil, then makes a coating of oil and carbon after a good seasoning that creates a non-stick surface. Stainless does not due this. When cooking with OIL, you must heat up oil first to prevent sticking. There are videos on how to do this and it works great

Very light weight. I mean really light. Frying pan warped after 2 uses. Would not buy these again or recommend to anyone

We cook more than anyone we know and had gone through 2 sets of well-ranked non-stick pans from Costco. They were fine, but we give them a workout and the covering finally wore out. I did a ton of research and first tried the Costco Cuisinart set. It was good quality, but the sizes were all too small, so I returned them and bought this set

We haven't had these long, and I think I've used every one by now. Easy to clean; had no issues with anything sticking; and they heat fairly evenly. I followed the initial soaking, cleaning per instructions, then used them - never washing when they are hot. What I've noticed on the 2 pans, so far, is that the bottom black material is already starting to flake off

The riveted handles look and feel bullet proof. They do come pristine and polished so if you plan on doing any cooking you have to get over the fact that they will acquire scuffs and slight discoloration over time, but their performance will last. The one negative I have to give this set is that the 12" fry pan has a less than ideal flare to its sides. They flare out at such a shallow angle that it reduces the area of flat cooking surface that's available

Food will sponge away, but it's as if the food has left an indelible stain INTO (not onto) the pan itself. Very strange, and I don't like it at all. I guess it's time to bite the bullet and spend a pretty penny for quality pans. I know they won't be Farberware

Ours was manufactured in China, but that was pretty much expected. It is stainless so those expecting ease of clean up like Teflon or ceramic will be disappointed obviously, but stainless is a whole different animal and if you treat it right and use it properly it works and cleans up almost easily as modern chemical based cookware without the worry of what your feeding your family unknowingly. In other words, it's not for the 'super' lazy cook if you want it to continue to look great, and it does look great, it needs a bit of care

This claims to be non-stick but it clearly is not. I haven’t even had it for 2 months and haven’t used them that much, and things stick to it very easily and doesn’t come off

If quality matters, this set is for you! If you want for displaying, you'll be using barkeeper on the inside for stains, not food sticking, after each use. But, that said, each pots, pans are a beauty, and a joy to use. I'm blessed.

And that’s the most important thing - provided they last longer than a few months. Thus the 4 stars. But I don’t like the plastic pot handles and lid knobs. I would prefer metal

True, the stainless steel doesn't release food as readily, and the pans have a tendency to dull (without upkeep), but I didn't buy these for their aesthetics, there were purchased for their ability to cook our food evenly and quickly.

I turned off the heat and let the pot cool. The olive oil went down the drain and my pot still looks like new. I have the sense that there is no way to burn, discolor or damage the beautiful shiny ceramic copper cooking surfaces of these Farberware pots and pans. And they are so reasonably priced

NOTE- This particular set was made in Brazil and has glass covers, which is my preference. They clean easily and maintain their polish.

There are a few things to know though before using the pans and basic maintenance. First when you first get the pans you will have to soak them with baking powder and hot water this will remove the coating the put on the pans to keep them from getting damaged in shipping, also if they pans start to loose their sheen you can do this. Another thing is you have to be gentle with cleaning these as using a heavy scrubber or throwing these in the dishwasher and remove the nonstick coating and will void the lifetime warranty. Overall I really enjoy these pans they cook food fantastically well and they look really nice, I would definitely recommend these to any one looking for a long term cookware

This company does not honor its warranties. Non stick coating works around six months before peeling.

Product came damaged on the big pot and a small pot but my wife didn’t care. They aren’t the best but my wife was happy.

stainless. Not so with the pots and pans. Tramontina suggests from some link to season the pan with a little oil in the bottom - never heard of having to season a ss pan in my life! Cast iron sure; but not ss. Then they suggest barkeepers friend - okay fine - but one shouldnt have to use BKF every time you use a pan/pot! Fact is they are Chinese s
