The expensive brands in that same price range:
All-Clad, Le Crueset, Henckel, and Mauviel.
This five piece set is worth it's weight in... well, copper. Cuz copper is super expensive.
At a much more reasonable price range you've got Cuisinart, Calphalon, Lodge, Victorinox and a few others.

Here's a list of things they could get (an entire kitchen revamp) for under $1000:
A $300 knife set with 4 steak knives (note: the 7 piece classic set is available from Costco online for only $80 if you have a membershit, same blades, no fancy handles. The steak knives can be got for $10-15 each, so the entire set is like $130 if you don't want rosewood)
Anova sous vide cooker for $110. Toys are fun.
Lodge enameled dutch oven for $60
Mauviel carbon steel pan for $40 (needs to be seasoned), or a pre-seasoned Lodge for $20
Lodge cast iron for $10-20 (depending on 8 inch or 10 inch).
Scrapers (super important!) and maybe silicon handles for $10
and the most important thing they'd want, is the Calphalon tri-ply set for $225 (which I think is also cheaper over at Amazon).
An Instapot (combined pressure cooker + slowcooker + ricecooker, this thing is like a slowcooker on crack). You can also opt for just a regular $30 slowcooker, too.
If they don't care about fancy looking handles, the Fibrox handles actually have a great grip, and Victorinox knives are sharp as shit.
Other things:
OXO good grips tools/spatulas/measures/everything for about $100 depending on what they want.
The Costco membership would probably be worth it just so you can buy the Victorinox knives (and I think also the Calphalon pans?)
---------
Total price: ~$1000 if going with the rosewood handles (I personally didn't bother), and instapot (I would highly recommend the instapot, though!)
If going with regular handles and instapot, $850 <--- my choice
If going with regular handles, instapot, but no sous vide, $750 <--- probably most economical choice
If going with regular handles and regular slowcooker, and no sous vide ~$650
Just regular Victorinox Fibrox knives, and Calphalon Tri-Ply set and one cast iron skillet: ~$400
> I got a water heater for Christmas. So did my husband. :P
I have it on good authority that I'm getting this. But it's sort of like Kittendaddy is getting it too, because we'll both benefit! 馃樄
We have Calphalon stainless everything plus a workhorse cast iron skillet and dutch oven. They're all great for everything. My husband got the Calphalon pots on sale on Amazon as a set and it was a great deal. I've never wanted for another type of pan or pot honestly. I just replaced my cookie sheets with Nordic Ware aluminum sheets and praise the cooking gods, they are amazing.

I use the Calphalon Tri-Ply stainless set. They're good, heavy-duty pots and pans and you can get a 13-piece set for less than $400.
stainless steel not this exact set, but close. . . I have some casserole dishes and such by Rachel Ray that are ceramic and are AWESOME!
