T-Fal Ingenio Cookware Sets

Pros: Easy Storage and Cooking
Cons: don't use metal utensils because you could scratch

T-Fal Ingenio has got to be the best thing in cookware I have ever had the opportunity to
try. I absolutely love my set, and let me tell you why.

I live in a Mobile Home, where space and storage is very limited. I have one cupboard...

Pros: stacks, great non-stick, T-Fal quality
Cons: lids drip condensation

After seeing these pans on an infomercial, I was intrigued, but was still happy with my old T-Fal pans. A couple of years after their debut, I decided to bite the bullet and toss the old pans into the garage sale.

My original set of T-Fal...

Pros: The storage features, heat distribution from the ADD disk
Cons: Those darn handles!

You may have seen my husband’s take on this wonderful set of cookware, but now it is my turn. Having used the set a few times now, I have to say it worked well past my expectations. After fighting the husband for usage of the set, I have finally been...

Pros: easy to clean
Cons: not many colors

I love this cookware for its true non-stick coating that covers the inside and the outside. Clean up is a snap. Those vented lids are stainless steel with attractive, huge protected knobs. You will realize the importance of this feature once you try out...

Pros: stackable
Cons: don't hold up very long

My fiance was given a set of Ingenio as a gift. I was very excited and want to use them right away. I had always wanted a set of these pots and pans, but could never afford it. We have had them for about 2 years now and I have to say I am a little...

Pros: Even cooking, low fat cooking, easy to maintain
Cons: handles and lids are a pain, some stores over charge for this set.

As many of those who read my epinions probably know, I recently got married. As any newly married couple does, we setup house and needed some pots and pans. T-Fal Ingenio became the pans in our house.

The Handle Problem
My wife...

Pros: space-saving, available on sale
Cons: none

Just a brief comment about the Ingenio system. I'm very happy with them for the reasons mentioned by others: the major advantage being they nest together and save gobs of storage space. I've had no trouble with the detachable handles, and the pots and...

Pros: delivers on promises
Cons: no color choice

This set of cookware was something picked up by my wife and immediatley put to use.You get 6 different sizes of pans and kettles, 2 interchangeable handles and two basically, universal lids. Nothing sticks to these! we have used them for everything...

Pros: The set takes up the space of one pan, and little or no oil is needed.
Cons: The large lid does not fit the largest fry pan in the 14 piece set.

When I first saw Ingenio on an infomercial, I was not swayed either way. I only watched for a few minutes. I found myself, however, watching the same infomercial next time I ran through the channels. The next thing I knew I was really impressed and...

Pros: easy cleanup, don't need grease/butter
Cons: lids a little odd

I got this set of pans for Christmas and I love them. The thing I like most about these pans is that now I do not use any grease or butter when I fry eggs, or whatever I fry. These are truly magnificent cooking utensils. Clean up is a snap just wipe...

Pros: Easy to Clean, Space Saving, Non-Stick
Cons: Lids for pans are "different" & the non-stick surface on the pans can wear away

UPDATE: I am updating this opinion because it was very vague & I have much more information on my T-Fal set now that I've been using it for almost 2 years.

My husband and I received the set as a wedding present in August of 1999. At...

Pros: Easy to clean
Cons: Not durable

I have been happy with T-Fal in the past, so I bought the Ingenio set. I was pretty upset when the handles got too hot and burned, making them unusable and leaving the large pots too difficult to handle. My frying pans get a lot of use and I notice...

Pros: Non-Stick, interchanfeable lids and handles.
Cons: hankles come apart too much.

Well after going through several other sets of cookware, including
2 other sets of T-Fal, I came upon this one which I currently have and
use.This set needs to be used on a low flame or #4 or lower for cooking,
otherwise you will ruin the...

Pros: Sturdy, light weight, well constructed.
Cons: Two lids to serve all pans in a set.

I purchased a set of the T-Fal Ingenio about a year and a half ago. There was nothing wrong with the set of cookware I had. But I wanted something new and improved for the new stove I acquired. The T-Fal Ingenio is great for cooking on a regular stove or...

Pros: The stackable and versatility of the cookware, lids fits all pans.
Cons: Cons - Not having a solid lid, and having to buy a separate lid that is solid.

I saw the infomercial and liked the idea of fat-free and stackable cookware. I loved it enough that I bought the extra pieces offered. I also found it on sale at stores later and bought a second set for myself. I bought a 3rd. Set for my RV. I wanted...
