    I purchased a set of Rachael Ray's cookware for a housewarming present for my daughter. I loved to look of the set so I purchased myself one. Boy are we both disappointed. You can’t even use a lid on a pot or pan without the coating getting scratched. We’ve only had them a few months and they look horrible. We’ve only used non metal utensils on them and the pots and pans are scratches. Now, I worry what my grandchildren and the rest of the family are ingesting from these awful pots and pans. I can’t believe she would want her name on something as cheap and possibly dangerous to consumers.

    The pots and pans are already chipping. Spent over $100.00 on this package. All I can say is that it's garbage and definitely not worth the money. Should have read the terrible reviews before purchasing.

    I just finished making a bad review on this place but I just received pots and pans from Rachel Ray. I want to thank you guys for standing by your warranty. I wasn’t expecting to get nothing back and nobody notified me that you were going to send me my pots and pans for the ones that were defective so they do stand up for the word and product. I take back what I said and I’m sorry but you guys do stand by your word. Thank you for all the good pots and pans that I’ve had in the past and I was sorry that this one was a bad bunch but you stood behind your warranty. Thank you.

    Jan 2020 we purchased a new red cookware set. Shortly after, using only wood spoons, the inside of the pots/pans were scratched and gouged within only a few uses. Aug 2020 I saw the red finish chipping off in large amounts! I am astonished since I have barely used the pots and pans due to being severely sick for 5 months and unable to eat. We purchased the entire cookware set and the stock pot. I pulled out my receipt and called Target and their employees basically told us that their strict return policy was 90 days no matter what and the supervisor (apparently) said she didn't care if we never shopped with them again when I said I'd take my business elsewhere if this was not rectified.

    Both Target and Rachael Ray Cookware need to reevaluate their policies and quality! Horrible. Now I'm reading other reviews of so many people who are experiencing what we have with the product and we should all be refunded by someone. How do we accomplish this? I'll be contacting Rachael Ray AND Target Corporate offices Monday!!! This is just bad business.

    Most of the Pots have the inside coating chipping in pieces. Got these Pots about two years ago and use only plastic spoons. Very disappointed that these Pot can’t be used now due to health reasons. The coating could be hazardous to your health.

    I use the smallest pan the most and the color has changed and I have not had the cookware not even a year and the other pans are okay. For now I only use the plastic cookware that’s needed for the pots and pans but I am not happy at all with the purchase for the price. I paid under a year ago 159 plus taxes and they are turning already. I purchase the gray color. I will not purchase anything I mean anything from her company again.

    I haven't had the pan for very long. I was going to fry some eggs, so I was heating up the pan on med low. The paint on the bottom of the pan stuck to the range glass top and the handles were too hot to handle. I pulled the pan off the cooktop and it broke the top. Now I not only need a new frying pan, I also need a new range.

    I have been very disappointed with the durability of the product. Discoloration and stains to the bottom of the pans was almost immediate. And the scratching! Wow - would probably not recommend at this time to friends or family to purchase. The wear and tear even with minimal use is a lot.

    I love the colors and the quality. The durability needs to be much better, the non-stick surface gets scratched off too easy. It's heavy enough to feel good but not like a cast iron pan. In 6 years I am already on my second set.

    The styling is exceptional in so many ways. I really enjoy the variety of color and I can only imagine what it took to come up with the designs. By designs I’m talking about the styling of each of the various dishes and accessories. Style and color have much more to do with the design of each item than you would think until you use it. The presentation of your table makes all the difference. When they took the time to include an area to hold the dish it made so much difference to me. I like how combining dishes looks so stylish.

    I am rating her cast iron Dutch Oven.. It is very heavy and does a wonderful job! I use it for everything from making soups to frying foods. The lid is a good and tight fit. I just used it to make artisan bread and it was perfect for this! Easy to wash and heats evenly. If I had to choose only one pot to keep, this would be it.

    The non-stick started to peel off the pan after only 6 months and very little use so I asked for a replacement. I sent pictures and the Amazon proof of purchase and received a response refusing my request for a replacement giving the reason that the pan was purchased without a warranty. The pan was purchased new on Amazon just six months ago. I took the website link on their response to appeal and the link failed. Hopefully someone will sue these people.

    I've had Rachael Ray cookware for a little over 3 years now. Overall it's great and being able to use the pieces for 3 years makes it worth the value however the bottoms of the pans stain easily. You can get the marks off with some Bar Keepers Friend and a lot of elbow grease. My largest pan has started chipping and the Teflon coating is starting to come off in spots but for 3 year old cookware it's held up pretty nicely.

    My last new set was a gift and it was some Rachael Ray cookware that I wouldn’t buy for myself so my mom did. Screws come loose on ones in my set, handles were coming loose often, they were easily scratched even though metal was never used on them. The set just had a pretty look and a decent price.... You absolutely get what you pay for.

    I have since returned to cast iron such as my granny’s Le Creuset pieces. Never thought I’d go back to heavy pots and pans but it’s so worth it. My granny passed in 2003 and I’ve dug out her favorite cast iron styles I grew up watching her use and while it might be on the heavy side, you’ll never have to worry about a handle or anything frightening happening to you. These cast iron pieces were old when my granny was using them and after a couple sets of pretty garbage, I’ll never use anything else. Dishes are an investment when you can afford to get better do it. At least the Le Creuset’s brand can be pieced together affordable and YES....they are worth it. Couldn’t find one user who regretted the purchases.

    I like her pots. They're nonstick. I have had a few years and the nonstick hasn't wore off at all which is great. The only thing there's no hole in the top which causes it to boil over when you're boiling food. You have always crack the top or leave it extremely low so you can't rapidly boil anything, but other than that I love them and I wish they would give better utensils that goes with it.

    Bottom line is how it cooks and how convenient it is to use, my favorite is a five quart pot. It is not so large at the bottom. It cannot be used on the small burner of my electric stove but large enough to fit the large burner as well, the enamel finish has held up well and it heats evenly across the bottom. So far the nonstick coating is holding up well. It seems thick and of premium quality but I have only had it a few years and I treat it well. The cost I feel is a bit high and leave it at that, if the warranty or the lack there of were better the cost would be on par but after thoroughly reading the warranty you have little recourse.

    We found the set on sale so we believe we got a good deal. We purchased the bigger set as we both love to cook. We have not had any problems with the non-stick material. In other sets we have had we eventually had some chipping or color changes. The material used is strong and cleans easily. We actually forgot about an item cooking and burn the heck out of the food, the pot still cleaned out nicely, though we did have to air out the kitchen. I would recommend to them to anyone.
