Circulon Infinite Anodized Aluminum Cookware Set Review

Circulon Infinite Skillet

Circulon Infinite Straining Pot For price and features, the Circulon Infinite Cookware Set wins my choice for Best Value of anodized aluminum cookware sets. A durable nonstick surface, dishwasher safe, stable flat bottom, and unique ridges on the cooking surface makes Circulon an industry leader, and the Circulon Infinite cookware line, a winner in multiple categories. Innovative design elements like easy-pour edges, locking straining lids (shown to the right), nonstick surfaces both inside and outside, and the Circulon patented hi-lo cooking system easy to like.

People enjoy cooking even more when they have new cookware!

Perhaps your cookware is chipped or peeling. Maybe they are slightly warped and don't lay flat. Maybe yours sticks too much, doesn't perform the way you would like it to, and perhaps you want a cookware set that is dishwasher safe.

You may have noticed scratches on the cooking surfaces of your cookware and concerned about the health safety. Do the handles get too hot? Is too heavy? Perhaps you would like cookware that is nonstick and easy to clean.

If you are like me, I have some cookware that has been passed down from my parents and other family members. I have a little bit of everything. I know I get tired of some pieces that are warped and don't lay flat on my GE flat ceramic stove top. It would be nice to have cookware with comfortable handles that stay cool, heats evenly and all the way up the sides of the cookware, and maybe even uses less heat. And it would be great if that cookware could last for many years to come!

Hard Anodized Aluminum Cookware Sets

In reviewing hard anodized aluminum cookware sets, I found one that stands above the rest when it comes to VALUE. There are many brands to consider including All Clad, Calphalon, Circulon, Cuisinart, Farberware, and KitchenAid. But when it came to the ultimate value of the set, only 1 kitchen set remained.

The Circulon Infinite 10 Piece Cookware Set

No more warping, mismatched sets, or scratched cookware. Say hello to a set that is flat, durable, nonstick, and dishwasher safe.

You don't have to worry about a mess after you cook up a storm. Just throw the Circulon Infinite nonstick cookware in the dishwasher! The cast stainless steel handles stay cool. The stainless steel lids fit securely. And the Circulon Infinite stainless steel base stays flat on whatever type of stove you have. The flat bottom base is great on flat top stoves! Thinking about induction? No worry. The Circulon Infinite 10 piece cookware set is induction ready!

The 10 piece set is complete with every essential pan you need to get started. Here is what comes in the 10 piece cookware set:

We buy cookware to cook! It doesn't matter how experienced you are in the kitchen, the right cookware will help you cook even better.

Hard anodized aluminum is a popular material for cookware because it is lighter and stronger than stainless steel. That makes it easy to use and durable! Being aluminum, it provides excellent, even heating. When you start cooking with this Circulon Infinite hard anodized aluminum set, you will find it heats very quickly! You will find that being aluminum all the way up the sides, it heats all the way up the sides of the cookware, surrounding your food with a perfectly even heat. Unique to Circulon Infinite, the stainless steel base assures level cooking that is great for all stoves, including induction.

When you cook a thick sauce or rice dish in this Circulon Infinite set, you will find that you need less heat, and because it surrounds your food with even heat, it won't burn or scorch on the bottom! Perfect rice pilaf. Cream sauces... no problem. Macaroni and cheese cook and clean up swiftly.

Circulon is well known for their durable, long lasting nonstick surface. In fact, their nonstick surface, called TOTAL, is guaranteed to outlast all other nonstick surfaces! Unique to Circulon, their TOTAL nonstick surface has raised circles that minimizes the surface area touching your food. It helps keep fats and oils below your food, and makes cleanup a snap. The TOTAL nonstick surface, like more expensive anodized aluminum cookware, includes the nonstick surface not only on the inside of the cookware, but also on the outside. This avoids the traditional dingy appearance some anodized aluminum cookware can get over time, and makes cleanup super easy.

Here's my take. I have a couple pieces. I use them all the time when I want to do easy-to-clean nonstick cooking. The chef pan is wonderful for large quantities. The side handles makes it easy to manuever. Because the nonstick surface is both on the inside and outside, it is easy to clean by hand. But when I'm not in the mood to hand wash, I toss it into the dishwasher. The cooking surface ridges helps keep fats away from the food, and provides a lower surface tension enhancing the nonstick surface. Having a GE flat top stove, I LOVE the stainless steel flat base. It's perfectly flat! OK, Mark, I hear what you're saying. You love it. But what are others saying about it?

When you go to Amazon.com, you will see a minimum of 68 customer reviews. FIFTY-TWO of them give the Circulon Infinite 10 piece cookware set the highest 5 stars! Eleven more give it 4 stars. Here's what a few had to say:

"Circulon Infinite cookware ROCKS"

"I have purchased high-end cookware in the past, but nothing even comes close to Circulon Infinite. The cookware is of solid construction and heavy stock. It heats evenly and the non-stick surface will cook an egg with no fat whatsoever. I prefer glass lids so it is easier to monitor dishes as they cook, but a lid or two salvaged from my old set solved that minor problem.

Even better than the product itself was the service from Amazon.com! I ordered the product and received it in LESS THAN 36 HOURS, even though I took advantage of free 'standard shipping.'"

"A MUST HAVE"

"This is a 'MUST HAVE' cookware set for your kitchen. It's a very high quality, and durable set. My food cooks evenly, I even use less butter and oil because the nonstick material is extraordinary fabulous! The best set I've ever purchased. I've been using it for 2 months and definitely feel I won't need to buy a cookware set ever again. You will be so delighted and glad you made this purchase. I rate this product 10 stars!!"

"Hooray! Quality Cookware that is Dishwasher Safe!"

"I absolutely love Circulon 'Infinite' cookware! It does everything that's promised, and goes into the dishwasher too! Believe me; this can be a very important feature if quick and easy cleanup is important you. Yet, that is not my only reason for giving this product a five star rating. I've owned many brands of cookware over the years, and for one reason or another, they have fallen short of my expectations. Yes, even my Calphalon cookware can't hold a candle to Circulon 'Infinite.' For instance, I've had a couple Calphalon frying pans for more than a year now. I tend not to use them because their non-stick properties are lacking--so much so that making eggs "over-easy" is almost impossible. I've tried several different things to correct this problem, but no matter what I've tried, food continues stick, which not only makes cooking more difficult, but it makes cleanup more difficult as well. Another problem that I have is that the bottoms of my Calphalon pans have a slight curve to them; as a result they don't sit firmly on my burners. On the other hand, however, each of my 'Infinite' cookware pieces have a flat bottom, which allows them to sit firmly on my burners, and I never have a problem with food sticking to them."
