REVIEW: Berndes Tradition 10-Piece Cookware Set

Berndes Tradition 10 pce SetIf you are looking for a set of matching pots and pans for your kitchen that will do anything you need done, you may want to take a look at the Berndes Tradition 10-Piece Cookware Set.

This set has all the essentials –

  • 9.5-inch skillet
  • 11-inch skillet
  • 9.5-inch sauté pan with glass lid
  • 6 inch one quart saucepan with glass lid
  • 7 inch two quart saucepan with glass lid
  • 11 inch 10 quart stockpot with glass lid

They are beautiful pieces that have more going for them than their looks. Inside, those lids they are a dream to cook with. They have non-stick insides that really are! Once the meal is done a little water and a cloth and they are clean and ready to go the next time.

It’s not just the insides that have the great nonstick coating, but also the outside. You will appreciate this if you have ever had one of those moments when something spills out of the pot and you had to scrub it clean. Not this time. With these pots it will wipe away just as well as it did on the inside.

The handles on these pots stay cool no matter how long they have been cooking. They are made of wood.“

What We Like

  • These pots and pans are made to last a long time and put up with a lot of use and abuse.
  • They are heavy duty and you can feel the strength of construction when you hold them.
  • They have a great non-stick surface that really is non-stick and very easy to wipe clean both inside and out.

What We Don’t Like

  • Clean up is not quite as easy as we would like it to be as they are not dishwasher safe so much be washed by hand.

scanpan-nonstick-classic-cookware-setIf you are looking to stock your kitchen with a new cookware set you may have found what you are looking for with the Scanpan Nonstick Classic Cookware Set.


Included in this set are:

  • Dutch Oven with Lid – 6 Quart
  • Sauce Pan with Lid – 3 Quart
  • Sauce Pan with Lid – 2 Quart
  • Sauce Pan with Lid – 1 Quart
  • Sauté Pan with Lid – 10 Inch
  • Frying Pan – 10 Inch

Making these pans lightweight is their aluminum body. While many think aluminum made pots are not as sturdy as other options, in this case they are. These are part of what is called the Classic Ceramic Titanium line which means the aluminum in the pots was pressure cast and coated on the outside with a ceramic titanium coating which creates a solid surface that will not warp or weaken. They can also be used on any style of stove surface.

On the inside, these pots are all coated with a nonstick surface covering. Unlike many nonstick coverings, this compound is even able to stand up to the use of metal spoons and utensils in the pot. Their pots are so well known for their nonstick features they have been named “Best Nonstick Cookware” since the 80s by a number of publications.

What We Like

  • This is a very lightweight, yet fully functional, cook set. That makes them easy to move around the kitchen, even when full, as you prepare a meal.
  • While they are lightweight, these pots and pans are heavy duty and can handle a lot of work being put on them.
  • All coated with non-stick surfaces they are easy to clean after preparing a meal.
  • They provide even heating so your food comes out as you would expect.
  • When the pans are red hot, the handles have been created to stay cool to the touch.
