Do the handles stay cool?

Hi, I have to use a potholder sometimes. They are heavy and well made. That said I like the set and glad I bought them. They will last a lifetime.

I would not purchase these pots, they are not as good as my 30 year old Farberware pota. The surface is rough and hard to clean and the handles get hot!

It depends if you have something cooking nearby. I have only ever had a problem with hot handles once from the steam of a pot next to it heating it up.

For the most part they do. If I have a lot going on on the stove I notice they can get a little heated. When lifting the lids I always use a potholder. The set is nice. I am happy with them.

The stock pot handles get warm. The other handles are long enough that they don't get uncomfortably warm. I would also like to add, that I love my pots. I have not had any problem cleaning them. I deglaze the skillets with water while the pan is hot and they clean right up. If necessary soaking the pans loosens up any food that my still be in the pan.

They stay fairly cool. There have been a couple times when I needed potholders for comfort.

Probably at lower temps. I wrap the handles with aluminum foil to prevent them from melting.

No, the rubber-clad handles do not get hot due to the pan being on the stove, even if on a burner for an extended time. Of course, you need to ensure that the handles are not above an adjacent burner: they would get hot if positioned above a hot burner.

there is a rubber insert between the handle and it does stay cool to the touch, it might depended on how much heat you are using but for the most part i think you would be ok.

No, the handle stays cool. I LOVE this elegant carafe. I'll only buy this carafe in the future.

I have had no issues with the handles getting hot. I haven't really used the pot lids during cooking, so I cannot comment on that. I also have done much transferring from cook top to oven to finish off a dish.

Not at all. The handle stays cool no matter what. This thing is awesome. My only regret is not getting a bigger one.

For the most part, yes. With exception on the stock pot all are usually cool to the touch. With heavy use, the shorter stock pot handles can get warm. Obviously if placed in the oven, handles will be hot to touch.

I haven't had any problems with the pot handles getting hot. The lid handles are cool touch on the underside of the handle however the tops are not so they can heat up. If you lift the lids from under the handles its fine.

Yes, if you mean 'are they safe to handle on the stove without getting too hot?' Sometimes, they may get a little warm, however l I have never gotten burned by the handles. I have to say that I was extremely happy with the set for several months but I now have trouble with sticking. I am not nearly as happy with the set as I originally was.

The handle stays cool when cooking on the stove top. It does, however get hot when used in the oven.

There has not been a problem with safety of the handles during my use of this product. If you are asking if they get too hot: no, they do not overheat. They also are attached securely. I have been satisfied with the product.

The metal sides and bottom get hot, but the handles on the unit & lid stay cool (they're plastic).

It gets pretty warm on the outside. But, if you need to move it, use the handles - that's what they're for and they don't get hot.

The handles are I think polished aluminum with rubber on the underside for grip.They stay cool to the touch.

If by that you mean, do they stay cool when in use ... no -- they get hot. That is the only thing that I would criticize about the pans though. Other than that, they are great.
