The photo looks a bit faded, is this cookware set "tomato soup red" or "fire engine red"? Thanks!

It is a lighter red! I think the picture was just a tad bit deceiving, but all in all I will still give it 5 stars. It is an excellent product!

So no one really knows or can agree on what shade of red this set is... interesting...

It's definitely darker than tomato soup, but I think it's a little lighter than fire engine red. It's a really nice, rich color.

It is darker than tomato soup, but not quite as bright as fire engine red. Color aside, I never for a moment regretted getting this wonderful set of cookware. Would buy them again tomorrow if something happened to our cookware. :- )

It IS ceramic. Ceramic mechanisms are usually white and look like plastic, but are not plastic. They will outlive a metal mechanism and you can use them for salt (the will not corrode'/rust. You also do not have to worry when using it over a pot of boiling soup, since the steam will also not harm the ceramic mechanism.

This set is vivid red. I took a gamble when I purchased them, hoping that they would be red, not a burgundy hue. They are very attractive. The largest canister holds approx. 3# of sugar. I have been very pleased with my purchase. I also ordered the stove top set with salt and pepper, napkin, and spoon rest. These items completed the set.

I"ve only seen this set sold with the red lids. Previously to buying the set, I had bought individual pieces with grey lids. I had found those at Big Lots and Walmart.

I purchased this item along with another set to compare last summer. I kept the other set because I wanted more of a rose look. As I recall the one you are considering did have more red in it. Hope this helps.

They are a true red. They are a perfect match to the Circulon red cookware.

I would say it's more of a grey , charcoal color .. It looks great . I have a set of Todd English Cookwar in gunmetal and it matches great .. Hope this helps .

Well, the Paisley dinnerware really has no red in it - when I look at it the first thing I see is orange. If you're looking for something that's an exact match to the red cookware, this isn't it. However, this is so pretty and has held up so beautifully - not one chip, crack or mark on it. If you have cookware (to bake in etc) does your dinnerware have to match? It's really up to you if you want cookware in one color and dinnerware in another. In terms of quality, based on my experience, you can't go wrong with the Paisley. Just a note - I got this from another site and it was packaged fabulously well - nothing cracked or broken. I love these dishes and recommend them highly.

The hot plate that I bought was white. It was not as effective as I would have liked in keeping my coffee pot hot when sitting on my balcony. I don't know the difference in the black and red. Perhaps they are better than my white hot plate.

It is just as you see it in the picture. Clear dish with red trim.....I love mine and have used one of these for the last 20 years. They save so much work in the kitchen especially during canning season.

From Appearances before cooking it seems to be red, but after making into stock it has a an white/yellowish color.

Pretty sure I got the set pictured here, with the largest and smallest green; sorry I can't check for sure as they were mailed to my daughter & granddaughter -- she's only 6 but loves to cook! Easier to tell her to give me the yellow one rather than get into fractions at her age!

Mine is red. I've had it a year and while it broke off the base and has a crack in the bowl, it's still working well.

Yes, it's really red. I love how durable they have been this winter and they are super easy to clean. Great buy!

Hi. They look to be cast iron, not enamel. As my review indicates, we have had some trouble with this, particularly with technical support. The burners don't always light and stay lit. The oven is great but the fan can stay on forever after cooking at high temps. Sometimes I have to flip the breaker to turn it off. On the plus side, it looks great and is easy to clean.

Hi Brian, I no longer have this item, but it is red. I bought a refurbished one for 99 dollars-it was in perfect condition!
