| ziprz's Full Review: Meyer Anolon Professional Cookware Sets |
My wife and I have been married for a year and a half. Not one day haven't we thanked ourselves for asking for these pans for our wedding. We looked at a great many pans prior to selecting this set.
We got a free Calphalon pan at a bridal show and tried it out. Calphalon is a great pan except for the fact that you MUST use a pot holder to pick up the pan. We also very much liked the idea of having glass lids on our pots which the Calphalon ones didn't offer.
The Analon pots and pans are outstanding. First, the handles never get hot. Who wants to pick up a potholder to move the pans, or to serve guests? Second, the non-stick surface is durable and very slippery. Third, these pans have glass lids. This seems like a silly thing to base a buying decision on until you have to check and see if your pasta is boiling, and you don't have to let out the heat and scald your face. You'll also find that these pieces are very nice looking with their shiny stainless handles, deep black insides, and charcoal gray outsides. There is no shame hanging these babies out in full view above your stove.
We received a variety of pots and pans for our wedding. The most useful pan is the medium fry pan. It is perfect for omelettes and bacon. The 3 quart saucepan is the most versatile of the lot. It heats up quickly and evenly, and seems to be just the right size for most spaghetti sauces and steamed vegetables. We have love our roaster, with the exception that it does not come with a rack. It has been next to impossible to find a rack to fit it as well.
Whatever you do, if you are planning on getting married and plan on eating, please get a good set of cookware like the Analon Professional. You will find that its durability, heating characteristics, and features like cool-to-the-touch handles, make your food taste better, and your cooking experience more pleasurable.
