As the days get longer and thoughts of sprucing up the house come to mind, you may feel like it's time for a kitchenware overhaul. In the words of Gordon Ramsay, "Don't get your knickers in a twist!" HexClad, the brand behind the cookware the celebrity chef says "cooks to absolute, utter perfection," is offering up to 40% off nonstick sets as part of its Big Game Sale ahead of Presidents' Day. Some even include free extras, so it's time to get cookin'!
The pans' hybrid construction borrows from stainless steel, cast iron and nonstick for a one-of-a-kind product that, according to Ramsay, "is highly versatile and cooks exceptionally well." The cookware features aluminum sandwiched between stainless steel for expert heat conduction and distribution, and the nonstick interiors make it a breeze to clean. Plus, the signature hexagonal etching helps encourage browning. If you love whipping up delicious meals but could use an upgrade from crusty pans, look no further than these sleek sets.

With this starter set, you'll get the 12-inch, 10-inch and 8-inch Hybrid fry pans, plus lids for each.
"Best pans ever," raved a reviewer. "Sauté game has been elevated to a new echelon: I've never caramelized onions so perfectly and so quickly (always had to slowly sweat them down for 45 minutes). Sirloin came out perfectly medium-rare and ideally seared — first try! Eggs don't stick! WOW, these pans do all the things!"
(Psst: These pans made it onto our list of the best nonstick pans, tested and reviewed!)

"This is the BEST set of cookware out there," gushed a fan. "I bought these two years ago and they still look brand new. We use them every day and they are a five-star quality set. No sticking, no scratches and they heat up evenly across the pan. Cleanup is a breeze. My next purchase will be the knife set. Great job, HexClad!"

Oh, and while it's not technically part of the pre-Presidents' Day sale, this set is over $200 off should you need some new blades.
Not only will this stunning knife set elevate the look of your kitchen, it'll also make chopping vegetables a joy, thanks to the 67 layers of Damascus steel making up the blades. It includes an 8-inch chef’s knife, 7-inch santoku knife, 5-inch utility knife, 3.5-inch paring knife, 8-inch serrated bread knife and 9-inch honing steel to keep things sharp, along with a beautiful magnetic walnut block to display everything on.
"I've had a lot of knives," shared an impressed slicer. "This set is by far the nicest-looking and easiest to cut. No pressure on the knife and it cuts. You don't even have to try. I cut a potato and ran to everyone in the house who has cut a potato before and made them try it. It was so easy, the knife basically cuts by itself. Best set … plan on adding more."
