7 Reasons to breakup with your old cookware
Trust us when we say we understand what it's like to be let down by your cookware.
With Meyer, it doesn't have to be that way!
It'll clear your cabinet clutter
The Essential Set isn't just about cooking - it's about smart storage too. Every pan and pot is designed to fit together effortlessly, streamlining your storage. And with it's universal lid system, there's no more lid-hunting.
It's nonstick that doesn't wear out
Our innovative "electric bath" technique gives the Essential Set a resilient black alumite coating. This not only protects the nonstick surface from scratches but also guarantees a lasting bond between the nonstick layer and the pan.
No more boilovers
Our pots all have the same superpower: catching messy boilovers in the kitchen. The pot's special curvature and rim design help keep the bubbles at bay much more effectively than regular straight-sides pots.
It's hassle-free cooking AND cleaning
The Essential Set seamlessly pairs with any kitchen setup. Whether you're using an induction stovetop or relying on your dishwasher for cleanup, there's no second-guessing.
