I always wondered if anyone else used and liked it as much as me.

I have the Pampered Chef sets that I got before the price became outrageous. And Princess House stainless steel ones because I was a consultant.
But- I have some cheap kind from many years ago that I pull out all the time because they are "tried and true". So really, cost doesn't matter.
I hate 3 sets of pots and pans because I cooked a lot when the kids were home. I've bought the Paula Deen ones for wedding shower gifts lately.

I've used copper-bottom Revere Ware since I got married in 196l - that's 51 years! Although cleaning the copper gets old sometime, I still love them and use them every day, and they look so pretty hanging in a neat row on the wall with the matching lids above them. However, I don't use the skillets - got rid of them a long time ago. I use only cast iron for frying (I have 4 in different sizes), and I have a 6" non-stick Farberware Millennium skillet which I use only for fried eggs, crepes, maybe sauteeing a few onions once in a while. Other than that, I don't like non-stick. The lids from my Revere Ware have stay-cool handles, are oven safe and somehow fit every iron skillet I have. I am a happy camper and probably will never buy new pots and pans.
Even if money were no object, I doubt I would spend hundreds of dollars for a different brand name. I don't believe that more expensive pots and pans would allow me to cook anything better than what I have.

Still have my set -half here, half in Fl. They replaced them all once due to change in design where lid sits but been satisfied. Never believed they would be worth the money but now know the difference. Don't do waterless.
Lifetime quarenteed.
My father used to sell Miracle Maid back in the 70's and so I had a set of those as well. None of it has lasted, sorry to say, but it sure did cook some awesome meals! I do still have the large 24 cup coffee maker, which I now use for hot spiced cider.
