The set I ordered was by Sterlingcraft. That is the only name that was mentioned. The handles do not clip on and off.

No, it's not Salad Master - it's "Maxim" - and No, the handles do not clip on and off (that I am aware of). I owned one set for 7 years and loved it so much that I gave it to a friend and bought myself the exact same set. I cook in mine every single day, several times a day. You just have to know how to use 'waterless' cookware. The lid handles need hand-tightening once in a blue moon. The only thing I don't use very often is the egg poacher. Love this set and recommend it without reservation.

No the handles do not come off. Not sure of the brand. We're very dissatisfied with the cookware and the seller we purchased them from.

I sent this back because I was sent something other than what was pictured.

Yes, they do have handles. This product is wonderful. I've just planted flowers in the last wk! And I've used the same set of bags for the third year now. I use the bags along my wooden fence, hanging the on the posts. The handle iskind of triangular and is probably the size of loose fist. The plastic stretches tho, so you'll be fine. It's a heavy-duty plastic so don't worry about it ripping through. Like I said I'm using the same set I bought for the third yr. :)

The knives are serrated. The teaspoon is small but the soup spoon is large. Yes, the tines pick up salad just fine. I love the flatware.

They are spot welded on. Count yourself lucky if they do not break off at some point. I owned this set for a few years, and shortly after buying it one of the handles simply broke off. Good luck trying to get a replacement even if it is covered by a warranty.

Those are not handles, they are Skewers, so you can roast Corn or Potato's, any Veggie's, and they come off if you don't need them, the roaster it self works pretty good

In my opinion, the hopper is not the same as this chopper. What I did with my Maxam chopper, example the carrots, I do not cut off the stems, instead use it as handle. As for the hopper, to me it is not necessary, but best to have for convenience. With this product, I am sold through instant availability of the same function as the Salad Master. The same made quality of stainless steal material. I bought mine almost a year now and I have not have a single problem. Its not Salad Master but good enough to do the job well done. I do recommend this Maxam product.

They Are Sort Of Like A Duel Pizza Cutter. I Only Use It For Basic Salads. The Hardest Thing I've Ever Cut WithThem Is A Shredded CaRrot.

This unit is exactly like the new Saladmaster unit. We had an older model of the Saladmaster unit untill the plastic parts broke off and the suction cups wouldn't. This one is easier to clean than the older one. It has a plastic shield that is supposed to help you finish up the small pieces. It doesn't work as well as one would hope. I usually end up using my hand very carefully. Hope this helps.

William E. Gibson was correct; they are not handles but sort of "skewers" that you can place vegetables (or maybe even small pieces of meat) such as potatoes or ears of corn on them. I have never used them.

We've had ours for less than a year and several of the pots have chips. Also, the pans are not really non-stick anymore. And finally, the handles are loose on both pans. We were very pleased with this set for about 2 months but now we know we got what we paid for: cheap.

The quality of this set is excellent including handles and lids. The only thing I struggle with is how heavy these pots are but they cook fantastic and worth the weight.

I don't know if I can make an adequate direct comparison. My primary reason for purchasing this set was the very low space profile. I use this as the cookset on our (very cramped) sail boat. The detachable handles are a plus. I've only had the set for a one (?2) seasons but it seems very solidly built.

Sturdy and not too heavy. I mainly use the salad fork for my meals because its easier to hold, in my opinion. The set is very nice though.

I purchased the set as a gift, so I don't have access to it now, but when I checked them out right after receipt, the handles all seemed fine to me. I have had my Victorinox Forschner knives for a number of years now. The handles of my paring knives are not labeled, but the handles are the same material as the larger knives. If the knives with unlabeled handles feel OK, I'd keep them. On the other hand, if the unlabeled knives have smoother, less grippy handles, I'd return them.

The handles do not get but the lids do...I love my pots so I have a pot holder ready at all times. I have several of these pots.

I will be honest with you. These pots are cheaply made. Save your money and buy some from Cuisinart or some other brand.

Yes, that is what I have. Make sure to not wash in the dishwasher as this will cause the pots to oxidize and loose their shine.
