I have been wanting new pots and pans for a long time. My old pots are pretty worn and have certainly seen better days! I also wanted to find some pots and pans that did not have any non-stick coating on them, because I’ve grown increasingly worried about the chemicals leaching into our food. When I was contacted by Kohl’s and offered the opportunity to review Bobby Flay’s 11-pc Stainless Steel Cookware Set, (at no cost, to facilitate this post) I quickly said, YES!
The 11 pc. Stainless Steel Cookware Set contains:
- (1) 1/2-qt. Saucepan (with lid)
- (1) 3-qt Sauce Pan (with lid)
- (1) 8-qt. Stockpot (with lid)
- (1) 4-qt. Saute pan (with lid)
- (1) 8 1/2-in Skillet
- (1) 10-in. Skillet
- (1) Steamer Insert
I couldn’t wait to rip into my box when this set was delivered! As I pulled the new cookware out of the box, the first thing I noticed about them was their weight. They are heavier than other pots I’ve owned, but not SO heavy that they it’s too much. The weight certainly makes the feel like the highest quality pots I have owned so far. They were also super shiny, and the skillets do not have any non-stick coating on them–finally!
When a girl has new cookware, she’s gotta make something good right away. So, what did I make?! I used one of my new skillets and fried some delicious BACON! It cooked perfectly! Since then, I’ve made other things including spaghetti, scrambled eggs, tacos, hamburgers and more, and everything has turned out really well!
I was quite pleased to see that these pots can be put in the dishwasher. As a busy mom, I like to put everything in the dishwasher! I had read other reviews online that some people were having trouble cleaning the skillets (since they don’t have the non-stick coating), but it hasn’t been an issue for me at all. My cookware still looks brand new!
Overall, I couldn’t be more pleased with my new cookware set from Bobby Flay! It’s the cookware I’ve been waiting for ever since I moved out of the house 9+ years ago! I’ve already packed up all of my old pots and pans and given them away. This cookware looks great, but even more importantly, it cooks perfectly. I love it!

I bought this set for my son. He complains that things burn and stick, especially in the small skillet. Also pasta sticks to the pot at times. I think it is probably his rookie cooking skills. Any thoughts?

Hmm, I've had that happen just a few times, but it was only if I wasn't paying attention or didn't use enough oil/butter.

I have this same set of cookware. I love to cook with it with the exception of the sauce pan. I first bought the set in 2014. Upon the first use of the sauce pan it split on one side; as if it had been cut with a cutter! I returned it to Khols and they immediately replaced it. Even they thought it was strange. I don't do sauces very often so I didn't need to use the new sauce pan right away; when I did use it, the new one split on both sides!
I tried to send a picture of the damaged pan to 'Bold Food' the supplier of the cookware, only to have my letter returned stating that the mail box had been closed with no forwarding address.
I have been unable to make contact with Bobby Flay to make him away of the defect with this particular pan.

I have this set! I love it, but the small sauce pan split on the side as well. I will try to take it back to Kohl’s to see if they will replace it.

Hmm, that's so odd. I use my saucepan frequently and haven't experienced that.

I like the idea that these pots and pans do not have a non-stick surface on the bottom of the pots and pans.
I would love to be able to have a new set of stainless steel cookware, as some of my pans need to be replaced. I especially need a large skillet what is deep enough to cook spaghetti sauce and other meals that require a lot of room to cook, such as a large stir fry dinner.
Thank you for providing this information!!
