Calphalon Premier Stainless Steel 8-piece set
4 pots and pans and 4 lids, for one-pan meals, sauces and soup or pasta. It still leaves you without a pan for frying.
Works on induction. The maker gives no oven limit for the lids, so covered oven cooking is not confirmed.

What is included
Four pots and four stainless steel lids: a 5-quart sauté pan, 1.5- and 3.5-quart saucepans and an 8-quart stockpot. It still leaves you without a frying pan. Five layers of metal with an aluminum core; Calphalon says it works on every stove, induction included, goes in the oven to 500°F and in the dishwasher. The page gives no lid figure, no broiler or utensil rule and no warranty. The deep 5-quart sauté pan with its lid does much of a frying pan’s work and braises too.
