Each piece is constructed of extra heavy 304 surgical stainless steel and guaranteed to last a lifetime. The 5-ply construction spreads the heat quickly and evenly. The steam control valve makes "waterless" cooking easy. You can cook healthy in this cookware because it eliminates the need for grease or oil in cooking.

To use the steam control valve, start cooking on medium heat (never use high heat). Then, when the valve begins to whistle, close the valve and turn the heat down to low and finish cooking. The Black Diamond (tm) handles are superbly styled and are resistant to heat, cold, and detergents.

The set consists of: 1.7 qt saucepan and cover, 2.5 qt saucepan and cover, 3.2 qt saucepan and cover, 7.5 qt roaster, 11-3/8" fry pan and cover, double boiler unit, 5 egg cups, 5 hole utility rack and high domecover for fry pan or roaster. Includes cookbook. Comes with a lifetime warranty (excludes handles and knobs). Gift boxed. 34 lbs.
