Impossible to clean. Everything sticks to the bottom.

We were hoping to get 5+ years out of this set. We're only 2 months in and already regret the purchase. High heat severely damages the bottom of the pans (the most aesthetically pleasing aspect of the pans). Everything, particularly meat, sticks to the bottom of the pan and then falls apart, even when generously oiled. The handles act as strong heat conductors and get too hot to touch. That being said, these pans take a long time to heat up. Cleaning is next to impossible, and discoloration is immediate. I just did my first copper polish on the bottom of the pans, but it did no good. The luster of the copper on the bottom fades after the first use.
