I have purchased 3 sets of the CE cookware, but it was the hardcoat enamel . I used medium heat, never put in dishwasher and never used metal utensils. Loved the light weight cookware and easy to cook and clean but never lasted longer than two years. Tried to get replacement products and was told had to write corporate etc. Learned my lesson and no longer purchase anything made by CE.

The hard anodized is better quality than the porcelain. Pretty colors, though!

I've had similar sets from CE in the past, and they don't last. They are rather thin (more so all the time), the nonstick does eventually fail, and the outsides don't stay nice very long.

I'm not impressed with their lifetime warranty. You have to pay to ship back, they never have exactly what you need replaced, and they substitute, so you no longer have a complete matching set of pans.

I've had various types of CE, and they are as throw away as any other brand of nonstick cookware. Mine last for a number of years with careful use and washing by hand, but they still fail and need replaced.

Very nice colors, but I have a new set from HSN that I like. I wouldn't need those utensils. Wonder why Bob Warden hasn't been presenting much CE recently. I do like Meredith, but he seemed to have been the CE guy.

Daysdee: Did you get the Wolfgang Puck set that was on a few weeks back? If so, that looked like a great set to have... Hope all is well!!
