are the pans and pots thick bottomed?

Depends on what you think is thick. My old set was a cheap aluminum and was decades old. These are a dream compared to them and I think they are plenty thick bottomed. Also you can always get your money back if you don't like them. But I think you will!!

They aren't the double layered type, no.. But are equivalent to all the rest of the pots and pans out there.( I have a set of T-fal and these have held up just as well). I havent had any issues with them scorching , like you will get with the really thin pans, but they aren't the thick heavy bottom type either.

No! They are made in China. One more point when I complained to manufacturer about the rivets corroding they said do not fill the pots up. So that meant you can only use the bottom 2/3 of the pot. I will never buy from them again. I like using my whole pot!

No it is not a heavy bottomed pot, it is cheaply made and flimsy. I was totally disappointed. Don't let the picture fool you. I thought I was getting the same kind my mother use to have. What a joke.

No. It is solid stainless steel all around, including the bottom. But the bottom is a dull brushed stainless (not shiny). It's like a pot for the stove.

Yes. They are flat on the bottom and work well with induction. I love this set!

Not sure it's a really thick bottom. I'm an executive chef we use induction burners at work, but this is at my house. It's a heavy this bottom pot it's beautiful

To be honest, I am not sure. The pots and pan are not as big as I thought they would be, but they do the job. Sorry I couldn't be much help.

We have older Faberware pots too. I bought this one for my son who has used it a lot and he has not complained - and he would have had it not been thick enough for even cooking. He uses it to make large meat sauces and soups. He's an engineer and is very fussy about his materials, but I can't say how thick it is. Hope this helps.

It is a very thick, sturdy pot. Walls are a little thinner than the bottom.

No problems with the pots. I don't use the frying pans though because everything sticks to them.

Hello Kevin2012-It. I estimate that the pans are approximately an inch deep.

Yes, I stack the smaller pots and pans with a cloth between each so there is no abrasion.

Yes. My set does not have rounded bottoms, they sit flat on the surface and are good heavy & sturdy stainless steel. I love mine.

I only just purchased mine a few weeks ago, but they seem very sturdy. Very thick bottoms and love to non stick ceramic coating!

I don't own the straight pot, but even the graniteware mugs are completely flat on the bottom. I would assume that this pot is also very flat.

No, the pots and lids are heavy stainless steel. They are better quality than ours at home and my wife and I are foodies.

No they are not, the base of the pans from the set are thicker, this just have a thinner coating. I havent gotten my induction cooktop yet, so cant tell if they work
