I bought this set in Aug 2009 and used them occasionally, around twice a week, primarily the saucepans.After a few months, I noticed some chipping of the teflon coating.This was very surprising given how little I used them, and how I always used soft utensils while cooking.As of last week, Mar 2010, I had to throw the entire set away since these "chips" have become huge tears in the teflon up to 1-inch in diameter that reveal the aluminum underneath.
I only purchased this set because I had good experience with Mirro products in the past, and ironically, the one saucepan I have left from that last (good) set still has its teflon coating intact.Mirro product quality must have gone through some significant drop since then.
DO NOT purchase this product!

After the very first use--the very first--the teflon coating is already peeling off exposing the steel below it. I made pasta in the pot and used a SOFT plastic spatula to gently stir it. After that there were already two spots where the coating had come completely off. Now I have used it about 5 times total and the coating looks like it has been scraped with a metal spatula hundreds of times. And no, I did not put it in the dishwasher. Not even once. I used a very soft plastic spatula and did not stir hard. I've had far better quality from an $7.99 pot purchased at a discount store. I seriously don't understand how the quality could be so poor and this company is still in business. Avoid this unless you want to eat teflon flakes with your pasta.
