We love our new set. It has a stylish look, & the rubber grip handles are really nice. Tne pans clean up really easily & retain their shine by just using soap & water. The Farberware Millennium is a huge cost saving alternative to All Clad. We just put in an induction stove top & found that Farberware & All Clad were the 2 brands that worked the best with induction stoves. I looked at both sets at stores before ordering the Farberware thru Amazon. The only difference that I could tell is that the All Clad is heavier. I actually didn’t like the heaviness of the All Clad pots & tried to imagine what it would be like to be lifting them off of the stove when they were full. The Farberware is lighter but still substantial – we saved a ton of money by going with the Farberware.

This is a GREAT product. The pots and pans are very strong, heats very evenly and quickly; I was very impressed.

I bought this cook set 3+ months ago and have now used every piece. I got a great deal on Amazon and also got an additional rebate from the manufacturer.
My first time using my first piece (a saucepan) it got a slight discoloration inside. I had water boiling and added salt to the water just prior to cooking pasta. The small discolored spots were a disappointment. They did not clean off using a variety of methods. Since then I have carefully inspected every piece after use and have no problems at all. The discolored spots appear to be on the surface and not through the surface. No other pans discolored, just the first saucepan
I am pleased to have the stainless (!) pans because my previous nonstick pans were degrading and needed to be discarded.
I am pleased with the solid feel and completely steel exterior. They are easy to clean and look sharp.
I do recommend this cook set. It is a great value for the price. Especially if you can also get the rebate!
My only minor quibble is that the saucepans included are all small. It would have been nice to have one of the three a bit larger.

After looking at 3 different brands of stainless steel cookware, and reading Amazon reviews on all the brands (Faberware, Wear Ever Cook & Strain, and T-Fal), I chose the Faberware Millenium 12 piece set with soft touch handles.
While I was debating which brand, I remembered I still had a couple of Faberware pots handed down to me from my Grandmother 30 years ago. These were the only 2 pots, and lids, that I had consistently used over my 30 years of marriage… and were still useable! Although they are showing their wear after what must be 40 to 45 years of use.
I looked at the Classic in the store, and it sure looked like those old pots of Grandma’s.
The difference between the Classic and the Millineum was mainly in the handles (the Millineum looks even sturdier than the Classic..and it lasted 45 years, mind you) and the skillets for the Millineum were not non-stick but full stainless steel inside. I have gone through so many sets of non-stick skillets through the years, with all of them eventually scratching, peeling and rusting no matter how careful I attempted to use them, that I had determined no more non-stick. So I chose the Millineum for a great price at Fred Meyer’s ($129.99) and the $50 manufacture rebate…so this set will have cost me $79.99.
This morning I decided to test the 10 inch skillet…I put it on my glass stove top burner, followed the advice of the manufacturer and the Amazon reviewers, and turned the heat to medium. (My other pans had required high heat to cook anything well.)
I cooked two slices of bacon, beautifully, poured out the grease, wiped the pan out, not bothering to clean the bacon residue, and then cooked a batch of eggs flawlessly. The eggs easily came out of the pan (I always add a little water when I cook eggs as I prefer steamed eggs to truly fried eggs).
Okay…now the real test…I had bacon and egg residue on the bottom of a stainless steel pan…not horribly stuck on…but a definite gunky residue…so again I followed the manufacturer’s recommendation and poured in a little vinegar to the left over egg water and boiled for about a minute while I swished with the plastic spatula that came in my set. I was amazed…the sticky residue swooshed right off. I rinsed with warm soap and water, had to use a sponge in a couple of small spots in the pot crease…but the thing cleaned up beautifully and practically effortlessly.
I’m sold…why I haven’t bought Faberware before over the years I’ll never know. Excellent set. Excellent brand.

I have had 2 sets of Farberware Cookware in my married life. Considering that is over 40 years and this is only my second set of pots, I think you’ll agree that these pots stand the test of time. They cook evenly and although not teflon coated, they clean up very easily. If something does stick, just leaving hot soapy water sit for a bit will help having to scrub the pot with a scrubbing pad.
