Almost too pretty to use

Pam gardener and cook from Nellysford, VA

With a record hot summer, I've used this pan on my gas cooktop so I don't have to use the oven. It's cooked eggs, seafood, chicken, pasta and veggies beautifully. Its large 12 inch size, heavy cooking surface and high sides allow me to carmelize over a high temperature, locking in flavor, then covering to cook quickly or braise. Initially I was intimidated by this pan's weight, but it has a handle on the side to assist moving the pan from one to another burner with confidence. Although it is dish-washer safe, I prefer to wash mine by hand, so I don't risk scratching that super, shiny finish. It only takes a paper towel, a little dish detergent and water to make it sparkle again. I would compare the quality and finish of this pan to other professional style cookware. My next purchase will be a frypan for smaller meals. Read more

Saute Pan

J Jones from Willow, MO

The first time I used the pan I was impatient to get started and did not let it heat up properly, and of course the food stuck to the pan. After that letting it heat and then putting in the food it worked wonderfully. Its also easy to clean and holds large amounts. I would buy it again. The helper handle is a bonus. Read more

Gourmet Standard Tri-Ply too big

trini from Milwaukee, WI

This pan is a bit too big for my largest burner. It hangs over by nearly an inch. I should have purchased the 10 inch version, but was enticed by the additional handle on this pan. Read more

Patrick from Gainesville, VA

Great pan for the money. Just as good build quality as my All-Clad pots. Definitely a well built pan. Heats up quickly and evenly. I'm very happy with this purchase. Read more

Works best with a polish

Drinksabit from Birmingham, AL

Cooks great, but as with my others, seems to do best maintaining a polish on the cooking surface. Read more
