Lagostina Martellata Tri-Ply Copper 3 qt. Covered Casserole

So this is my first purchase from lagostina. I was very excited to own and use it since i cook a lot! I love the size and shape of this casserole. Heat gets evenly distributed. The best part is that the food doesnt stick to the bottom at all. Its better than some of the other branded non-sticks pans. It is easy to use and clean. No hard scrubbing required. I love it. The only negative part that i have to say it is that it changed color from copper to like rainbow kind. I mean i know copper tends to change color but it just its color in one use. I am not sure it thats normal.

Got this item about a month ago and can’t be happier. Beautiful look, great to cook with and easy to clean using suggestions for looking after this line of cookware received.

We received this pan as a "free gift" for buying a stainless steel Lagostina Luminosa set in-store. This saute' pan has only taken one trip through medium-high heat on an electric coil stove-top, and the copper finish on the bottom and sides is already looking as though it won't last too long. It's significantly discolored. That said, the pan distributed heat really well, and I expect the pan itself to last a long time. It's solidly built without being overly heavy, and it cleaned out fairly easily for stainless steel. We're also excited for our stainless steel set, and don't expect discoloration to be an issue there.

This cookware set arrives as a beautiful copper set of pots and pans. However, once you use it, the copper never looks the same. Usage results in a dull, brown, tarnished finish and polishing with copper cleaner turns the copper a bright pinkish color. I would never recommend this set.

I have been very impressed with the Lagostina Martellata Copper Hammered pots and pans. I have used them for just over a week now for all my cooking. The pans heat very evenly and provide a beautiful sear on the meat. I cook a lot of chicken dishes and I would definitely say the cooking experience with these pans outperform my prior cookware. You do need to make sure you use butter or oil in the pans when cooking or food can stick. The first time I cooked eggs, no sticking; the second time I must not have put enough butter in the pan or I was cooking at too high heat and they did stick. So, if you are trying to cook with very little butter or oil, these pans may not be the best for you for some dishes. The only thing that I wouldn’t try cooking in them again is the simple task of cooking pasta. For some reason, I could not get the pots to boil water evenly…..the water would boil in the center of the pot only and the whole pot of water would never come to a rapid boil. Not a big deal as I have other pots I will cook pasta in, but it was a little disappointing because in general, the pots/pans seem to heat and cook food very uniformly. The pots and pans are beautiful! I wish I had a place to display them, but for now they have to be kept inside my cabinets. They are very well made and are heavy. You can tell they are quality cookware. There are instructions for how they are to be cleaned and what you can clean them with, especially the cooper finish. Not as easy as cleaning your basic cookware. However, for me, they are worth the extra effort to keep them looking and performing well. When I use this cookware, it makes me feel like a chef!! Very happy with this product. I received this product as a sample to review.

I was surprised by how nice the Lagostina hammered copper pans were when I got them out of the box. The pans are very good quality, very durable and well made. They are beautiful to look at. They were great to cook with. Nothing stuck to the pans and everything turned out great. I was worried that the copper would turn when I used them, but they still look brand new. The pans are easy to clean, no extra scrubbing. The only drawback that I see with the pans is they have to be hand washed and dried right away to prevent spotting. Overall they they are the nicest pans I have ever used and will enjoy them for a very long time. I received them as a sample.

I love this cookware! It is so beautiful to look at that I sometimes feel like I should put it on display instead of using it! They conduct heat fabulously so your food cooks faster and more evenly. Even though they're not nonstick and not dishwasher safe, it is easy to clean. Highly recommend! **I received this set of cookware to test and review**
