Fellow spiders, Many years ago I abandoned my original dime store set of cookware and bought a 1 qt, a three quart and a double boiler of Revereware. It was stainless steel clad and I am inclined to think it wasn't copper that was in the middle of the cladding, but possibly something else. They were sort of middle of the line, but received good consumer reports. The number seems to be 89A and it was made in Korea. These are great pots with very heavy bottoms and easy to take care of exteriors. I was hoping to buy something similar for my daughter who is getting her own apartment. But it would appear that Revereware has been bought by Corning and they are selling sets that all have glass tops, which seems to me like an unnecessarily fragile way to cover a pot. For a casserole and frying pan I use Le Creuset, cast iron, enamel, since I have never been a big fan of teflon type cookware, although I hear they have changed a lot since my last experience with them. We are debating whether a girl with a third floor walk up should be burdened with such a heavy casserole pot and fryign pan, though. I was wondering what others on the list have found to be good quality cookware at a medium price available now. The fact that so much of it seems to be sold as 10 piece sets is rather off-putting when you think you may not like about half the items, so it would be nice to buy it in single pans. Any thoughts?
