  to get my money back for pots which turn horrible wrong and ugly
  Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 August 2017
  I cannot stress more to whoever considers buying Circulon Infinite pots to not hesitate any longer and just buy! I went through a nightmare of buying non-branded set (from a different site) because it looked lovely, going through a process of opening a claim because an unprofessional seller could not be bothered to deal with me directly, to get my money back for pots which turn horrible wrong and ugly.Anyhow, I wish others didn't have to go through that but instead invest in the superb quality and functionality of these beautifully designed pots.I have a saucepan, which I have purchased separately, so had a chance to test it and I must say that making just scrambled eggs was never so fun! The non stick feature is trully genius, way more advanced than any other "non stick" ones. So next I got the set of 3 pots + 1 pan, they arrived quickly and no issues with the packaging. Perfect timing as big dinner to prepare this weekend. Aha! Working excellent on induction hob and dishwasher safe, a winner! ?

  They’re heavy!
  Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 November 2020
  These pans are superb, time will tell but I think that if they’re looked after they will keep for many years. Positive points are that they have a heavy enough base that allows one to achieve higher cooking temperatures- watch how quickly porridge cooks, and how nicely meats brown with minimum oil, and the construction is such that the non stick is very robust. Points to be aware of is that they are heavy, and this makes washing up of the large pan difficult as it puts a strain on the wrist if holding the pan by the handle ( one can hold the short grip instead). The metal handles also can get hot even if on the hob. And lastly, the lips non stick coating can chip if the pans are stacked (not recommended). All in all, these pans were perfect for me.

  HEAVY but High Quality Pots
  Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 May 2021
  So I got this set of pans in the Amazon sale for a very, very low price so I may be somewhat biased to these. I'm not sure if I had paid the full price I would be as enamoured with them as I am today however I will try to keep the retail price in mind when reviewing.First off the pans are sublime looking, I think they look great in the Anodised Black and Silver Handles. They look very professional and with them you can pretend you know what you are doing in the kitchen and impress your friends and neighbours.the box they come in is pretty standard and absolutely nothing of note. I was expecting these to come in a high end box but it's really not impressive at all. Go to your local cookware store and any panset box you see on the shelf is the same as this one. We didn't buy the pans for the box of course but thought I would mention it.The feel of the pans is great. They have a nice finish to them and as mentioned look great. They are really, really heavy though. I'm not joking, if you fill them with water to boil something they feel like you are lifting a cast iron girder. OK, so maybe not that heavy but the biggest pot, when making soup I HAVE to use two hands to lift it, same with the medium pan when it's full. If you have weaker wrists be very careful of these. I am also very careful when placing them on the induction hob as I would imagine it would be very easy to smash the glass with one of these.With all the heft though comes excellent thermal performance. I haven't gone and got a heat gun and measured it or anything but when used on my induction hob, with the lid on the pot I can boil a litre of water almost as fast as I can with the kettle. Maybe I should do the experiment on that one? The heat seems to be nice and evenly spread too, so no obvious hotspots or anything like that.The non-stick is absolutely brilliant, even after about 6 months or so. One of the pans looks like the non-stock is degrading a little but it's still super easy to clean, with some Fairy Platinum these wash off in seconds no matter what have cooked in them. Don't be afraid of the ridges on the bottom, they aren't canyons by any means so food does not get stuck in there whatsoever. I ONLY hand was these pots, they have never seen the inside of the dishwasher. I also ONLY use wooden or rubber utensils so as to take care of the non-stick surface and maintain the lifetime guarantee, which is yet to be tested.If I have an experience with the LTG I will update the review accordingly.Some negatives to mentions I suppose, to keep a balance n all that.The weight is an issue and will be a real drawback to some. I see that the benefits outweigh this but for some it may be a complete deal breaker.The frying pan has a small chip on it where I knocked it with one of the other pans when putting it away so it's durability is in question although it's not impacted the performance of the pan at all.They are expensive, even with the LTG they cost lots. I would have been happy to have paid full price I think, but I didn't so can't be sure. The value to you will have to be something you judge for yourself.Overall I highly recommend these, even at their high price. If the LTG is worth the paper these are printed on then so long as you follow the guidance for using and maintaining these then it's a one time purchase of a set of pots which will last you a lifetime.They cook wonderfully and look great, a real compliment to your kitchen and will of course boost your cooking skills by at least 92%*I would buy them again should I have the need, but hopefully that LTG is good and I won't need to, maybe as a gift or something.*92% cooking claim is based purely on fiction and was entirely made up based on no facts at all. Cooking skill depends entirely on how many episodes of Hell's Kitchen you have watched and how fancy your cooking knives are.

  Circulon pans are great!
  Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 December 2020
  Have used Circulon saucepans for years and decided to replace my twenty year old plus set when I saw this new set on Amazon at a great price. I am very pleased with them - they are well made & so easy to clean (by hand) I never put them in the dishwasher. The only reason I have put 4 stars instead of 5 is because this new version has stainless steel handles on the pan lids which get very hot - I need a dishcloth to handle them! The original version had strong plastic/rubberised (?) handles which did not get hot. Progress is not always so good!

  Cook Great, Look Great
  Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 January 2018
  With Christmas money burning a hole in my bank account and having already bought some of Circulon's excellent bakeware, I decided it was time for some of their pans. They are pretty pricey so I couldn't believe this offer and within a couple of days I became a proud owner of the beginning of my Circulon Infinite collection. Unless they fall apart but I'm pretty sure they won't. They are solidly put together, nicely weighty & well balanced with an excellent heat distribution. The non-stickiness gives you the impression that it's not going anywhere and they are so easy to clean. These are obviously initial thoughts but I have a feeling that in a few years time I'll be updating my review and raving about these and the stock pans, the wok, the chef's pan and everything else that I will inevitably buy.

  5 star pans
  Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 April 2021
  These are fabulous pans that aren’t cheap, but so far are well worth the money. They look really stylish and everything cooks in them well. They clean easily too either in the sink or dishwasher. They are quite heavy pans so they are very sturdy and feel so much more reliable than the cheap ones where the handles were wobbly that I was using previously.They are really good pans. I certainly will not be buying different brands in the future.

  My pan saga.
  Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 December 2019
  I like that these work on my new induction hob because that’s why I bought them. I dislike that the supplier of my new induction hob didn’t tell me that a starter pack would be supplied with my hob. So now I have two 4 part sets of new pans for my induction hob. Be aware that if your buying a new induction hob, ASK YOUR SUPPLIER , DO ANY PANS COME WITH IT. Trust me, that small question could save you money. I would return my bought set but I have no clue how to fit them back into the box, it’s a bit like a test on the crystal maze. Oh yes they are lovely but quite heavy, if you have a limp wrist look elsewhere or use two hands.

  Poor finish, don't last.
  Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 February 2017
  We bought a complete set of these pans for our new kitchen. After six months, the chef's pan completely lost its non-stick. That was replaced under warranty without quibble. Now, two years on, the whole set is in worse condition than the 20-year-old pans they replaced: The finish on the edges chips and wears off in weeks, making the pans look as though they've been used in hand-to-hand combat. The non-stick on the sauté pan and frying pan is going and the overall quality is way below the claims. We don't use metal or metal-handled utensils, we don't stack the pans, so are at a loss to explain the poor finish beyond cheap manufacturing. Update: we're four years in now, and these pans have virtually disintegrated: the non-stick doesn't and there are large patches of bare aluminium showing. Meyer are however replacing them under warranty, so we'll see how the new ones do. Very disappointed overall, given that they're only ever used with wooden or silicone utensils and are kept separately on their own shelf.

  A set of good pans
  Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 July 2021
  Good solid saucepans as expected and would have given 5 stars but for a couple of things. The lids can get very hot so you must use a n oven cloth and the largest pan is very heavy, if like me you are a bit arthritic it is hard to lift when full. These were purchased to replace earlier circulon pans and to match some others in the infinite range.

  Great
  Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 February 2020
  Really nice pans, i have only been using them a week but no issues so far. They are good non stick, only small amount of oil needed to cook with and three very good sized pans that come with sturdy metal lids. They can all be used in an oven as well which is great as that was something i wanted.They take a bit longer to heat up than my previous pans but that is due to them being thicker and better material and it doesn't take that much longer. They spread heat evenly. Overall really good set of pans so far. Very happy.
