Website says "Includes 1-, 2-, 3- and 5-quart covered saucepans" but only 3 are in the picture!? It looks like the picture is accurate (10 items total in the picture). Not sure which is missing but one is.
"bought the 14 piece set because it was on sale and I wanted the double boiler and steamer insert. The pots look nice, but require a lot of scrubbing and maintenance before first use. They come with a protective film over the copper and must be soaked in baking soda and hot water to remove it. They also come with a 3 inch in diameter sticker on the inside base of each pot. I am still trying to get the sticker off some of the pots. Who wants to buy new pots and have to spend so much time scrubbing them before they are ever even used? Also, the pots can not be put in the dishwasher, so buy Palmolive unless you want dishpan hands after using these pots. Buyer beware, these pots will wear you out!"
Looks like more work than I want from a cooking set...

we paid $200 for the 14-piece set + 3 other extras couple months ago. This is a great set; a steal at $74. green for you op.
The reviewer from Amazon was waaaaay off base. We have had the larger set for at least 5 yrs and have been very pleased. We put them in the dishwasher daily and perform zero "maintenance" otherwise. It still looks only slightly used. We originally had the older style (made in Belgium) that we had gotten as a nice wedding present. A minor problem with a damaged handle, and they replaced the entire set with the newer copper-clad style. Well worth the original price in my book.

This appears LNT copper bottom cookware set (12pc for $30 ac/ab last nov). These look great.
One thing to watch out though: If you have a glass top range, do not use them. The copper bottom harbors excessive amount of heat. Instead of passing all the heat up to the food, it encapsulates the covered glass top that the glass becomes so hot and cracks! - a damage of over $200.
