The bestseller among All-Clad's renowned cookware collections, the Stainless line provides serious and professional cooks with all the virtues that make All-Clad's worldwide reputation unsurpassed. Key to its high performance is a three-ply, bonded construction. Sandwiched between the exterior and an 18/10 stainless-steel interior is a thick aluminum core that spreads heat evenly across the bottom of the pan and all the way up its sides. The interior is 18/10 stainless steel, highly polished so it's stick- as well as stain- and corrosion-resistant. The exterior is gleaming, magnetic stainless steel that works on induction as well as conventional stovetops and, with care, remains beautiful during this cookware's lifetime warranty against defects--and beyond.
This 3-quart casserole pan makes clear why All-Clad Stainless is so popular. It's ideal for baking casseroles, simmering soups and stocks, cooking pasta, and slow-cooking stew in the oven. Because the aluminum core extends up the sides, foods cook uniformly, even though the pan is 3-1/2 inches deep (8 inches in diameter). And because the interior is nonreactive, tomato-based sauces and other acidic foods won't taste metallic. Its polished 18/10 stainless-steel pan and lid handles are riveted for strength and grooved on the top for comfort. The loop handles stay cool on the stovetop but won't be harmed by an oven's heat. Although Stainless cookware is dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. --Fred Brack

All-Clad Stainless-Steel 3-Quart Casserole,
By
This review is from: All-Clad Stainless 3-Quart Casserole (Kitchen)
I bought this 3-quart All-Clad stainless-steel casserole specifically for use as a rice cooker. For me, it has been an excellent rice cooker. I prepare three quarts of rice each time, once each week, using a 1-to-3 ratio of medium-grain brown rice and medium-grain white rice. I have followed this routine for six years, and every batch of rice was perfect. Cleaning the sticky rice residue from the casserole requires the use of hot water and a fair amount of scrubbing, with detergent and a stiff-bristled brush. After six years of use, this casserole still looks as pristine as it did when I received it.
I also used this casserole for making soup, a couple of times. Once, I used it for cooking dried beans. After seeing how well these other foods cooked, I expect to cook them more often. These are comfort foods, and they are generally inexpensive (and quite appropriate for the current national economic downturn). From a purely economic perspective, the current price of this casserole might be difficult to justify. On the one hand, it is possible to purchase a rice cooker for less than half of the price of this casserole. On the other hand, this casserole offers greater cooking versatility than a rice cooker. Another plus, is that its magnetic-steel exterior layer makes it suitable for cooking directly on induction burners (likely the preferred cooking heat source, for the next several decades). Here is a final note. Despite All-Clad's claims to the contrary, the two loop handles and the lid's handle will become very warm (hot), after 32 minutes of cooking rice. Before moving the heated casserole or its lid, always use pot holders or test the heat of the handles with a quick finger touch (ouch!).

Nice, but the handles are not "stay cool handles",

This review is from: All-Clad Stainless 3-Quart Casserole (Kitchen)
I was very disappointed when I went to pick up the pot without mitts and the "stay-cool signature handles" burned my fingers! That was one of the major reasons I decided to splurge and pay for All-Clad. It also left a couple spots/stains on the bottom of the pot after the first time cooking (that didn't come out with "Bar Keepers Friend" cleanser). Otherwise, it heats up very fast.

The title says it all. My wife likes it and that is what's important. I feel that All-Clad makes good cookware and their copper core series is by far their best, but the Stainless series is good too. The stainless series is also about half the price of the copper core, making it a great choice for those of us who can't afford the copper core series. Honestly though, an expensive pot will not make you a better cook, just like owning a Mercedes will not make you a better driver. This is a piece of cookware for the cooking enthusiast. I would recommend this product, or any of All-Clad's products, for those people who would like their cookware to last a lifetime.
