Meta-rankings combine expert endorsements.
ReviewFinder's formal aggregated ranking is a combination of our meta-rankings and consumer score.
Meta-rankings are a combination of all expert reviews we can find on the Internet. When present, meta-rankings are the strongest ranking signal (we trust experts more than consumers).
Consumer score is calculated from customer reviews.
Not all categories have enough expert endorsements online - in such cases we use consumer score weighted by historical brand prominence in the niche (brands that historically specialize in a certain category get a slight bump in that category rankings). Consumer score is a normalized 0-10 score based on customer reviews.
Recently we removed price form our rankings - it no longer affects recommendations. Whether to go budget or premium is consumer's choice, not ours.
As can be seen below, top ranked cookware sets in the Philippines start at roughly ₱260.93 and go up to ₱3993.24. Median price is ₱1014.83.

Depending on the manufacturer, the material used, and the particular series, cooking sets can come in different ranges, sizes, and pieces. The variety of cookware pieces that can be found in a set are as follows:
Frying Pans/Skillet
The 'Frying Pan' and 'Skillet' are two kitchenware terminologies that are often used interchangeably. Comparing their characteristics and usage, they have a lot of similarities that outshine their subtle differences making them pretty much the same.
The frying pan as the name gives off, is majorly used for frying, browning, etc. It is shallow and comes without a lid. Meanwhile, the skillet has a little more depth, and, a lid. It is good for ‘braising’ amongst other cooking techniques.
The frying pan comes in aluminum, stainless steel, or both combined while the skillet is usually cast-iron.
Having said that these two items are similar, know that they can be used interchangeably for braising, frying, roasting, grilling.

Sauté Pan
This cookware is the most enjoyable for one-pot meals. It is like the bigger of a skillet as it has higher vertical sides, slightly bigger capacity, and, it has a lid. It can accommodate more liquid e.g. sauces which the skillet would not be able to do conveniently. Also, it works for sautéing and searing. The sauté pan is easy to identify amongst other cookware pieces.

Sauce Pan
A saucepan has a smaller surface area with way higher walls when compared to a sauté pan. Therefore, the saucepan is good for boiling, cooking grains and pasta, sauce, and gravy in large amounts. The saucepan has the staple ‘pan kind of handle’ and some of them have an additional ‘pot-like handle’ on the other side for easy transfer from place to place.
Stock Pot
The Stock Pot is a common type of cookware that has a very large capacity. There is no standard size for this pot so it's dependent on the manufacturers' choice. As the name already tells, stock and broth are best made with this pot.
The pot has a flat base, two high vertical sides, two handles and, a lid. With its size, you should have it in mind that this pot is going to take up some kitchen space. On the good side, it can serve as storage for other pots.

Casserole Dish/Dutch Oven
The casserole dish and dutch oven perform the same function except stove cooking which can only be done by the dutch oven (made from cast-iron). Round, large, fitting lid, and more, this cookware is most suitable for finishing off your cooking in an oven and can be used to serve on the dining table straight from the oven because of its aesthetic appeal.

Generally, a good cookware set should be dependent majorly on the pieces that make up the set and secondarily, the material- personal preferences. We can not say the material is a major determining factor because there are various acceptable types, each with its strengths and weaknesses. For now, let’s focus on the pieces. The talk on materials would continue in the next outline.
The sets are packed differently but if you are after one with various pieces, then you should look out for the following:
If getting a complete set that you like is proving difficult, you can always buy the pieces separately to form your kitchen set.
Stainless steel and non-stick are both very popular cookware in the Philippines however they are majorly seen as opposing choices due to individual preferences.
According to www.sfgate.com, restaurants, chefs and very professional cooks mostly use stainless steel for their cooking. Does this mean the non-stick cookware deserves no credit? No. As earlier mentioned, these two stand out for unique reasons just like the many other types. Stainless steel is preferred by this group because of its durability and long-lasting nature. On the other hand, the non-stick pan serves well for making quick meals.
Now, these two, complement each other therefore opposing the notion that one is better. Having both stainless steel and non-stick in your kitchen is a good deal however, if you are tight on a budget, opt for the one that better suits your lifestyle.
Yes, you read that correctly. It is possible to avoid 'stainless pan sticking scenarios'! The possibility of this is pretty much interesting since it's why you might prefer non-stick cookware.
So how can you go about this? Stainless Steel doesn't conduct heat so well so you must let it stay on the stove for a while, to get hot. This is unlike the non-stick where you start your cooking before the pan gets hot to prevent the non-stick coat from eroding.
Then make sure that your food item is as dry as you can make it, for example, rinsed-out meat could be drained and patted with a towel to remove as much moisture as possible. This way, the temperature of the oil can be maintained. Also, taw out frozen foods to room temperature for the same reasons.
To make a selection, you consider your needs primarily. This would be in terms of size and weight, pieces, comfort, etc.
Like we explained a little earlier, your lifestyle; how and what you would use it for should all also be factored in. The type of cookware material you get would be dependent on this.
Size and Weight.
Thinking about the available storage space in your kitchen is a crucial part of your decision making and this would direct the size you would opt for.
As for the size, understand that heavy-weight cookware heats up differently from a mid- or light-weight. The heavyweights give evenly heated surfaces but are very bulky and vice-versa for the light-weight. Hence, a mid-weight would be just enough balance. However, if you can cope with the bulkiness (and maybe higher cost) of the heavyweight cookware then, go for it.
Lids and Handles.
These accessories deal majorly with convenience. Monitoring your cooking is easier with a glass lid since you don’t have to open up every now and then to look into your pot/pan. The food cooks better with the steam retained moreover, you save your skin the unnecessary heat.
The same goes for ‘handles’. Whenever you lift a pot off the stovetop, the load would be on the handle. That is why the cookware handle must be durable. Apart from the durability, you might need to consider the make of the handle. This is especially important if you would be using your cookware in the oven. Now, only metal handles are oven compatible and if at all you want plastic, some models have removable plastic and rubber handles.
Pieces in the Set.
Earlier on, we stated the essential pieces of a good, complete set. If you've got nothing at all in your kitchen, then you go for those. In cases where all you need is a replacement, just look out for the set that is made up of just those.
Remember, you can always buy them singly.
Material Type.
The material-make of your cook set has to be compatible with the kind of stovetop you have, for example, an induction cooker compatible pan would have some level of iron.
It's also an important consideration if you have an already established cooking pattern. For instance, someone that works a 9-5 job most likely makes a quick breakfast e.g. fried eggs. With regular egg frying, you should get a non-stick pan.
Cleaning: Dishwasher Safety
Dishwasher safe items would make life easier and save time. If you are going to be getting something contrary, make sure you clean well for proper maintenance. The manufacturer's instructions would serve as a good guide.
It's expected to find cookware sets with low range prices and also, those that are expensive. For the Philippines brands, the sets range averagely between ₱3000-₱12,000.
Depending on the stores, there could also be periodical sales where you can get it at a discount. So, if you don't need one urgently, you can look out for the sales period and get your cookware set then.
