Finally a Big Enough Set!
@_*wverjo
For some reason the current trend in toy pots & pans is to make them too small to work with the vast majority of the play food that's available. Most of the metal sets I looked at had this issue, as did all of the wood sets (incl. Melissa & Doug), with the exception of this Pro set from Learning Resources & a metal set from Toy Chef. I went with plastic over metal after thinking about the possibility of the pots being thrown.
These pots & pans sized just right for little hands, little kitchens, and toy food. Finally! The accompanying photos of a 2-1/2 yr old's hands playing in a Kenmore wooden kitchen, with plastic food from mixed sets. The soup pot can fit a whole slew of vegetables, and the frying pan is big enough to hold a plastic fried egg. The set also comes with a roomy sauce pot, 2 lids that do a great job of mimicking gl, an oven mitt that actually fits my daughter's hand, and a spatula & 2 large stirrers that have a little give to the softer plastic, which is ideal.
The set came with 3 plastic food items, very basic, they're just freebies. With nearly all cooking sets you have to buy the food separately.
My daughter has banged these pots around quite a bit & they've held up. I think the makers have struck a nice balance between sturdiness & keeping the pots lightweight; these wouldn't survive too many rounds outside making mudpies or lugging around rocks without losing a handle, but otherwise they'd be fine. My only issue is that although the lids fit the pots, they tend to clatter off a bit too easily.
All around, they're great, I'd buy them again, give them as a gift, absolutely recommend them.
(Note: Learning Resources also makes a different set of pans in both primary & pastel colors. They're cute, durable, don't clang, but have that too-small issue; better suited for under-age-2 chefs)

Perfect size!
@_*Mommy
I am incredibly happy with this purchase! This set is much larger than most and perfectly adorable. I'm not sure how durable they'll be, but I'm hoping they'll hold up well. The plastic seems more brittle than othersets I have had, but only time will tell. I would still reccommend this to anyone just for it's cuteness and great larger size!

A fantastic set!!
@_*S. Beck
This set is great! They look like the pans that used in kitchens today and quite durable. The pan sizes allow one to really play with and use the pretend food that is sold in stores today along with the pans.
