Thanks again everyone. I am going to check into all of your suggestions.

Basically what I need are a two quart, a three quart and a small stock pot.  that have the non stick. I have big stainless stew pots, and the le creuset dutch ovens.

September, I live up on  the hill. Do you come here often?--yes, they are very nice at the store here. We were at Paseo Nuevo yesterday shopping, and heading back again to go to Nordies tomorrow. Will check out the store then.

@hennypenny , looking for glass lids, non-stick, open stock for 3 pieces.

I have all the cookwear I'll ever need, but if I were replacing those 3 pieces I'd possibly consider the new ceramic non-stick interiors. I have quite a bit of Wearever, among others, with hard anodized exteriors and they are great for everyday cooking. As I get older I find I really prefer the grip of soft touch handles instead of the metal or hard plastics. I don't put them into the oven so it's not an issue.

I just took a look and QVC has some cookwear on clearance prices.

Hedge, I have to laugh, -----mr henny just asked about the "copper" ceramic pans. He said he saw them on some tv ad.  I told him they had one on the Q  the other day. Not the right size, but maybe they have some on their site that would work. I do think I remember seeing the ceramic pans with colored interiors, maybe that would be a go.

@hennypenny, do you mean the K41887? I don't need them but I love the bright yellow. Makes me want to paint my kitchen.
Arggggah!. . . take it away!

I had T-Fal non-stick and when it came time to replace the second set because of wear and scratches, etc. I went with their stainless steel.  I was tired of having to replace the non-stick.

Yes, they come in Yellow!!!----The reviews aren't great though----

We bought a fabulous set of non stick ceramic over metal pots for the camper this summer called green life. We got them at Walmart and I absolutely love using them, so much that when we came home we replaced our pots here with a full set of the green life.Please look at these at Walmart.com before you buy here on QVC as I feel you will be very impressed with this nice set of pots - non stick but no teflon - they are some sort of ceramic inside. The handles are silicone so they can go from the stovetop right into the oven too. Highly recommend.

I'm done buying sets.  I buy open stock now so I can get exactly the pieces I want. 

I have a few stainless pieces and a few non-stick from KItchen Aid.  I bought them at Kohl's.  They've held up nicely.   The non-stick has silicon handles. 

The reason I buy only open stock is I reach for the same pieces over and over again.  I like glass lids so I can see inside the pot.
