Review of Metro Cookware 21 Piece Set, Stainless Steel

I ordered this cookware set because I like the look of it and price was right! In the picture it looks sturdy and made of heavy duty stainless steel...not so when I finally got it. Don't get me wrong, it does look nice and it's made of stainless steel - but the handles are hollow in the middle and get hot while cooking. I was surprised when I picked up the pan off the stove OUCH! HOT! I do like the larger and smaller sized frying pans and the steam holes on the lids add to the look and functionality. The handles on the serving utensils are also hollow inside so now I know that when I take them out of the dishwasher they need to be dried before putting away. Overall a good set, very functional, easy to store, easy to clean. I would suggest this set for anyone wanting to learn to cook or for a college dorm. It's nice but not for someone who truly enjoys cooking and it probably won't last a long time.
