We have got three small children and with 5 moths to feed needed some big pans to cook dinner. We bought this set as it fitted that bill perfectly but were very dissapointed. They are very heavy, the loose handle for smaller pot and frying pan does not feel sturdy and the anti-stick came off after the first use making them almost impossible to use after. Would not recommend this set at all and would suggest spending a bit more money and getting something decent (we got the MSR Flex 4 set which is brilliant)
