Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Swiss Diamond 6-Piece Cast-Aluminum Cookware Set
Customer Review: Not Cheap ($$$)
Summary: 3 Stars
A few items that weren't mentioned in other reviews:
1) The small saucer lid is too small to fit the small frying pan. Grrrrr (I deducted a star for that since this is a pricey set and they could have matched the sizes better).
2) The large saucer lid DOES fit the large frying pan. :)
3) The handles don't get hot.
4) Unlike many of the cute colored enamel coated cookware, this cookwares outside surface is identical to it's inside. This reduces cleanup effort as the surface is non-stick. Also, no ugly browned or burned enamel spots.
5) The lids have plastic like center pieces that are hard to clean.
Overall, the quality, durability, and scratch resistance of this cookware is better than any Teflon coated pan I've used before.
Update since purchase (approx 1.5yrs of use):
Regardless of the "exact" surface material chemistry, the non-stick surfaces of one of my skillets is coming off & blistering (the surface looks/feels like many black dots). We are very careful with our pans, we don't use metal in them, we hand wash/dry each pan after use, we never use them on the "high" setting of the electric burner. Most pans only get used approx once a week. On 11/10/2010, I registered my "complaint" to Swiss Diamond on their web-site. They responded the next day with an RMA # and the following:
"Per our warranty, you may send your pans for inspection. (Please keep the
lid home with you). Your cookware will be inspected for manufacture defects
as well as use and misuse. If your pans are found to be defective and are
covered under warranty terms, your cookware will be replaced. Otherwise you
will be contacted."
On 11/23/2010, I received a replacement skillet. Yeah!!
Description of Swiss Diamond 6-Piece Cast-Aluminum Cookware Set
This 6-piece set contains an 8-inch skillet, a 10-inch skillet, a 2.2-quart saucepan, and a 4.3-quart stockpot. This unique configuration provides the best sizes all combined into one set. The 8-inch and 10-inch skillets represent the most popular sizes and are perfect for sauteing. The 2.2-quart saucepan is ideal for sauces, gravies, rice, and small quantities of soup. The 4.3-quart stockpot is great for larger quantities of soup, sauces, and gravies. Swiss Diamond cookware is a revolutionary cooking surface using up to 200,000 diamond crystals in each pan to reinforce the premium nonstick composite. It is so durable that Swiss Diamond cookware carries a lifetime limited warranty against cracking, blistering, or peeling. Since diamonds are four times more conductive than copper, ten times that of aluminum, and one hundred times better than titanium, no other nonstick pan can compare to the uniform heat conductivity of Swiss Diamond--from the center of the pan to the outer edge without hotspots. Swiss Diamond cookware brings together all the most important techniques you expect from a high-quality cookware set, browning, deglazing, and even producing a fond--the pan drippings that brown and add such rich flavor and taste to gravies and sauces. This set is an Amazon.com exclusive--you won't find it anywhere else!Cookware Sets
