About 2 years ago I was looking to purchase a new set of pots and pans. I finally settled on stainless cookware but I do have issues with them. For one thing they do stain and you have to buy a special cleaner for them, plus they are prone to food sticking to them. I tried different types of non-stick pots and pans, and a lot of the materials end up peeling and in my stomach, which is non-stick now, (just kidding but it had to have gone somewhere). On my way to now pay for this shiny new cookware, I came upon a man doing a demo on the above cookware. I started talking to him about the cookware being demo-ed. I do have ceramic fry pans and like them very much. They are however kinda pricey. The thing that peaked my interest was the non-stick surface, being composed of ceramic and titanium. The pots and pans do all the things the manufacturer claims. A fine Made in America product and I'm fromCanada eh! The one concern I had about toxins being released into the food when cooking with non-stick was answered. The process and products used in the manufacturing do not release any type of vapour or chemicals. If anyone has any other info on this cookware feel to respond. I decided to purchase a set on faith and trust and have not been disappointed one little bit. They clean very easily but stay away from harsh scouring pads and cleaners. They are not needed, just a damp terry cloth. I am not a representative or salesman for this product, just a happy cook.
