Community Reviews
Tramontina's tri ply clad stainless set is framed as solid, affordable cookware that covers most kitchen basics without All Clad pricing. The pans and pots are praised for everyday durability, with the 6 quart stock pot and 5 quart Dutch pot singled out as especially useful, and the set is seen as a strong value around $188. The main cautions are that the edges are not sealed, the 6 quart stock pot may feel small, and dishwasher use is discouraged. It reads as a practical long term set if stainless fits your cooking style.
Home cooks who want a long-term stainless base but still need a dedicated nonstick pan for eggs are a good fit because one commenter says stainless covers most needs "if you can't make eggs on stainless," and recommends pairing a 12" Tramontina frying pan with a separate nonstick pan for eggs.
Buyers who are willing to hand-clean cookware (not run it through the dishwasher) are a good fit because multiple commenters say they avoid dishwasher use and describe hand-cleaning methods that "work like a charm."
If you can't afford All-Clad, this set is a good-enough tri-ply option because commenters say it's "a lot of good-enough quality cookware for the money."
People who prefer stainless cookware but don't want to deal with All-Clad's handle design are a good fit because a commenter says they much prefer Tramontina and that its quality is "just as good or better than All-Clad," specifically calling out disliking All-Clad handles.
Small families looking for a practical pot size are a good fit because one commenter says the 5-quart Dutch pot included works well for a small family and that they've seen the set on sale for about $160.
People who plan to run these pieces through the dishwasher are not ideal for this set because commenters question whether the edges are sealed and warn that aluminum can erode in the dishwasher and create sharp edges, and also say you "shouldn't be putting these in the dishwasher."
Egg-focused cooks who rely on stainless for eggs are not ideal for this set because one commenter says their wife "can't make eggs on stainless," implying they'd need a different approach or separate nonstick.
Buyers who want sealed-edge tri-ply construction are not ideal for this set because a commenter says Tramontina "doesn't have sealed edges," contrasting it with brands/models that do.
People who are very sensitive to nonstick coating transparency or longevity are not ideal for this set because commenters raise concerns that the company is vague about the non-stick coating composition and that coatings can peel like Teflon after enough use.
Shoppers expecting the absolute best performance even at the budget end are not ideal for this set because one commenter cites America's Test Kitchen results placing Tramontina in the third tier ("recommended with reservations").

Not at the moment. Costco has as sale on This Tramontina 12-piece set [costco.com] every few months or so. $160 for a set that's normally 240. Wifey loves the 5-quart dutch pot as it's a perfect size for a small family.
Second, if you can't afford to purchase a set, check Macy's sales and pick it up one piece at a time.
I love my 6-quart stock pot, but for some things I have the time to make on the weekend, I really need a larger pot. Tramontina has one. It was recently one sale at Macy's, but I missed the sale. Just have to be patient and wait for the next big sale.
Here's ATK's most recent test of 12" stainless skillets. Tramontina is in the third tier, 'recommended with reservations'.

You won't get nonstick like teflon by using stainless or cast iron with "a bit of oil." You will need a ton of oil to even approach the nonstick properties of teflon. By then, you will be shallow frying your food.
Nonstick pans have a lifespan. They also off-gas toxic chemicals when heated too high, some studies showing as low as 445F. Don't use them as soon as you see degradation or scratches in the pans. But they are very useful for cooking foods like eggs.
