Pros: Very good quality, cooks like we wanted it to, and the food taste better.
Cons: Sticking can be a problem unless you do as the instructions say.
The Bottom Line: If I had to do it all over again, I'd buy the same set from the same company again.

| dani003's Full Review: Maxam World's Finest Steam Control Surgical Stainl... |
I bought a set of surgical stainless steel waterless cookware online just about three weeks ago. I remember when I first went online and after doing some research I really thought I wanted to buy a set of either the Maxam or the Steam Control system's brand of cookware because they are all over the internet with lots of stores selling them. Also I guess it was because, other than the really expensive sets, these two brand names were the only other waterless sets I was seeing that had a lot of reviews written about them. So I called a company I found online and found out that these two sets are all over the internet only because they were originally made back in 1950 or around there, so of course more people have those sets than the more recently made sets.I ended up buying a set that is made by Chefs Secret and it's just perfect. The set has a total of 28 pieces, but this counts lids and everything. One reason I picked out this set was because the knobs on the lids are covered by the company's lifetime warranty, and you can't get that with every waterless cookware set. The knobs have a thermostat gage on the knobs instead of the steam release valve that most waterless cookware sets seem to have. I didn't have any problems learning to cook with these pots, and I found out that I don't have to stand over the stove and stare at the temperature gage to know when it's time to turn the heat down. That's because if I'm not in the room and don't happen to see the gage, the lid begins to jingle around and I can hear the steam escaping out from under the lid on the pot. This works just as good and the same as the steam release valve does. The other two things that made me pick this set was stack cooking is possible with it and also the lids will fit between the pot and the handles so when you want to remove the lid to stir or add something to the pot of food you're cooking you don't have to a lay the lid down someplace. I can't complain about a single thing so far and I've done a lot of cooking in the time I've had it. I'm just glad I didn't pay over $2000 for a set like I started to in the beginning when I first saw a set of waterless cookware at a demonstration party. Danielle D.
