The handles recently stopped the "spring action" when opening up the claw to attach to the pan. I need to contact the company about replacement but other than the slight inconvenience of taking two hands to attach the handle we like them.

Hi Suzi, was this the Fagor set? We also bought this set at the boat show last year. HEAVY stainless! Didn't seem so bad at the tent, but my left arm was sore for 2 days after carrying it all the way to the dinghy on Back Creek. We added one of those silicone one-size-fits-all lids for the skillet, the only thing the set didn't have, our pressure cooker (also Fagor) and haven't needed anything else in the galley since. Good stuff!

We found the dealer very easy to work with - ordered new pressure cooker gaskets at the same time as we bought the pans - I'm sure you'll get good support replacing your malfunctioning handle.
