CAROTE 21pcs Pots and Pans Set Nonstick, Cookware Set Black Granite Induction Kitchen Cooking Set w/Frying Pans & Saucepans(PFOS, PFOA Free)

I bought this CAROTE 21-Piece Cookware Set as a gift for my mother, and she absolutely loves it! 🤍 The white granite nonstick coating is beautiful and very easy to clean. The pots and pans heat evenly and work perfectly on induction, which was a big plus. The set comes with everything she needs for everyday cooking, and the quality feels durable and well-made. Food doesn’t stick at all, and she uses much less oil now. It was a wonderful gift, and she’s been very happy with it. I highly recommend this set—great quality and great value! 🍳✨

This is the best set of pans I ever owned they DO NOT STICK! Clean up perfectly! Strong but not heavy I love them definitely worth the price I paid.

This carote ceramic cookware sets is awesome. Its durable, cooks great and cleanup is a breeze.. Just remember you need to cook on medium heat with this set.. I do wish they offered smaller pans for cooking smaller portions though; I don't need to cook large portions all the time. Still all in all its a great set of cookware.

This is my 3rd set of Carote. My reason for purchasing was for the health of it. My first two sets I was very hard on. Multi-tasking, cooking too high. Almost burning food. Mind you, we have food allergies/sensitivities, so I must cook all our food from scratch. I cook more than 5 meals a day as a homeschooling mommy of 2. (Family of 4.) . The sets usually last me 10 month torturing them. Still non stick After scratching and the ceramic looking dark and seasoned from overheating. Shopping around, I ended up going with Carote a 3rd time. This time I am being much more careful. Starting on medium and then turning it a bit down. I am still getting crispy bacon, browned chicken nuggets made from scratch etc. My last two sets were dark grey and dark cream. This bright cream set worried me. I have made plenty of red spaghetti sauce with no staining. I did read reviews and made sure I chose their line with the name granite in it this purchase. Now that I am cooking intentionally, my pans are not turning dark on the bottom interior and exterior. They are lasting much longer. If you get a defective handle. Being they are wood, they will replace. I do not submerge the lids in water, so water doesn't get in between the hollow area of the glass and handle. I love Carote. This set will definitely last me over a year this time. I was too scared to do the stainless steel having to worry about where they are made as each brand has many coming from different places, lawsuits, and the concern with really being careful. I like the silicone spatula it comes with. Nice size, and my girls like the colorful sprinkle design. I am so happy not having to spend hundreds on a set that disappoints. These are better than the home store brands that sell indvidual ceramic pieces. These do not stick and last way longer. I have had this set for a few months now and they are still looking brand new. When it comes to stacking any pots and pans, I use the fabric star looking things my first Carote set came with to put in between for storage. I am buying another set. I just love the sizes. They heat up nice and even as my stove is. I start on medium and then tske it down a bit once they are cooking well. I never have put them in the dishwasher since they have wooden handles. I also don't need to nor would use a rough scrubber on them.

Great set for the most part, but it only lasted us a little over 2 years (purchased Oct 2023). Lots of scuffing between then and now, mostly the edges from what I am assuming using the lids. We cook at home daily. Only use silicone or wooden utensils while cooking. The bottom burner fell off today (Jan 2026) on one of our pots after boiling eggs. The handles on the pots become extremely hot while cooking. Took me awhile to learn this. Almost dumped boiling water on myself a few times due to grabbing and heading towards the sink and my brain kicking in halfway. Never had an issue with the pan handles becoming hot, though. The black soot at the bottom (assuming from oxidation) is prevalent every single time we touch the bottom of the pan irregardless of whether it is clean or was used. It came that way out of the package I remember. Using the included felt insert dividers is a must when storing, otherwise you risk them clinking and scratching each other. Overall this is a great set for the price. I know I am not upset with it as I am back here purchasing a second set to replace my current set. Love the look of them too. I find them stylish and not cheap looking. I really appreciate it being a non PFOA/non PFTE, non PFAS cookware.

I thought so would wait to write this review until I had used most of the items. I can say that this is fabulous cookware! I have an electric stove, and although it takes a few minutes for the pans to heat up, it does a great job of cooking everything. The skillets are ideal leaving food to be easily removed. Eggs and omelets are a breeze. The instructions say to never use high heat, so I usually warm them up on medium high, then reduce the temp. This seems to advance the warming time. Overall, I recommend this cookware. It’s a fair price for the quality.

This cooking set is amazing!! Clean up is a breeze! I like that they do not have a chemical coating. They look really nice too!

I found this set in one of those 30 Things Amazon Buyers Love articles and fell in love with them. I loved the look of the granite finish and had this set in my cart for several weeks. This wasn't the actual set that was in the article, that one was a smaller set but I opted to splurge for the larger set and I am glad I did. These replaced my Epicurious copper colored set that when new, retailed over $300. They are not that expensive now. However, I can't quite give it 5 stars. The good stuff: super attractive, lightweight, induction compatible, easy to clean, non-stick coating, so far, works great. I love the pour spouts in the smaller pans, including the frying pans. I love that the frying pans have high sides, much less mess that way and I can make larger batches of things like scrambled eggs. I also love that the covers are interchangeable so every pot, including the frying pans, have a cover. The handles on the smaller pans are attractive in their wood simulated color/coating. I wish they were wood but they probably wouldn't have been affordable if that were the case. They were packaged extremely well. Honestly, I can't figure out how they managed to get all of that in the size of the box they did, but there was no damage whatsoever and no scratches. The utensils that came with this set almost perfectly match the new set of utensils I got a few weeks before, so that was great. I do love the shorter handle tongs. The stock pots are wider rather than deeper but still hold plenty. The larger one boiled nearly 10 pounds of potatoes for Easter with no issues. The not so good: The larger stock pots have moulded handles rather than the simulated wood. They get very hot! Use caution, keep pot holders handy, you will need them. They do not have pour spouts, which is a little disappointing. They scratch easily, I was using my bamboo spatula to break up hamburger and noted during the washing the frying pan was little scratched. I have switched to 100% silicone (which is what the utensils that came with them are.) They stain easily, which can be avoided if washed immediately but I did not after making meat for tacos and the spice pack stained the frying pan. I didn't wash right away and I wish I had. It's not awful, but it bugs me because they are new. You also will want to wash the utensils right away too, because those will stain if you don't. The covers will get moisture in the small void where the handle is screwed on. Do not immerse or leave them in the sink to have water constantly poured on them as you are washing hands, other pans, etc. I can't tell if moisture from cooking will also cause this, but it's possible. Overall? I love this set. Much of the negatives can be avoided with proper care and foresight. They are beautiful enough to have on display rather hiding in a cupboard. If I could give it 4 and a half stars, I would. I highly recommend. ETA September 2024: I’m not going to ding the stars, because I still love this set BUT I did find a couple more issues. The biggest is that one of the covers does not fit ANY pan properly. I didn’t catch it at first because I don’t cook a lot of meals that require leaving the cover on and this is for the 5 quart sauce pan, which I use even less. But I’ve used it a couple times recently and the cover just does not sit on the pan correctly. I tried other covers, maybe I had to wrong one, but nope, this is the one and it doesn’t work on any of them. It doesn’t securely sit on the pan, so it’s kind of wobbly. Disappointing, but I can live with it. Second, and again, I didn’t notice because only one pan is impacted, but again, the 5 quart sauce pan is the only one that has texture to mimic stoneware/grantite. It’s clearly cosmetic but I have to admit, it would have been really nice if all of them had this texture. Once again, I do love the set but it does have its drawbacks.
