Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Distinguished among All-Clad's renowned cookware collections by its stylish, charcoal-black, hard-anodized aluminum exterior, the LTD line provides serious and professional cooks 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 hard-anodized aluminum exterior and an 18/10 stainless-steel interior is a thick core of pure aluminum that spreads heat evenly across the bottoms of pots and pans and all the way up the sides. The interior is highly polished, so it's stick- as well as corrosion-resistant. The striking exterior resists scratching, chipping, and peeling.

This nine-piece set of stylish LTD cookware consists of a 10-inch fry pan with a layer of scratch-resistant, professional-grade nonstick coating bonded to the interior steel layer; a 2-quart covered saucepan; a 3-quart covered saucepan; a 3-quart covered sauté pan; and a 6-quart covered stockpot. Polished 18/10 stainless-steel pan and lid handles are riveted for strength and grooved on the top for comfort. Both the lids' handles and the pans' long handles (holed for hanging on hooks or pegs) stay cool on the stovetop but won't be harmed by an oven's heat. LTD cookware carries a lifetime warranty against defects and should be hand washed. --Fred Brack

4.0 out of 5 stars Spectacular Cookware in every way (except price)!, July 29, 2001

This review is from: All-Clad LTD 9-Piece Cookware Set with Nonstick Fry Pan (Kitchen)

The All-Clad 9 piece set is probably the best cookware available today. We love it plus it has a very attractive "look and feel" to it. It almost could be described as functional industrial art.

Are there drawbacks? Well yes and no ...specifically the price is strong but worth it. Second, the pieces are almost indestructable ...they will last a life time but remember this is for the serious cook. The only drawback to this set is the six quart stockpot ...good but, we enjoy making homemade soups and it is not big enough unfortunately ...in sum, if you are a serious cook or just thinking about it, this is the cookware for you but remember you don't buy it, you invest in it!

PS If you are interested, price it out in housewares stores or department stores, the Amazon price ... makes Amazon the lowest cost source.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect investment for the Kitchen, August 5, 2002

This review is from: All-Clad LTD 9-Piece Cookware Set with Nonstick Fry Pan (Kitchen)

I always thought the All-Clad LTD cookware were beautiful but I also thought they were rather expensive and wasn't convinced that they were worth spending so much. But I received this 9-pc set as a gift and am now a firm believer of using quality cookware. I can't imagine cooking with anything else. It is definitely more cost effective to get the set, and it contains pieces most people would use. Or it can be a good starter set. These pots and pans are an investment and they will last you a lifetime; you will bequeath them to your progeny! They aren't so expensive when you consider this.

The piece I use most is the 3qt sauté pan, it's the most versatile of the bunch. I use it for frying, and I love the edges of the pan which help prevent liquids from spilling out.

The 9-pc set I got came with the 10" sticky frypan instead of the non-stick featured in this set. I must admit that I rarely use the 10" frypan, always opting for the 3qt sauté pan instead. But this would be the perfect pan for making omlettes.

The 6qt stockpot is perfect for cooking pasta (my primary use), and for cooking larger dishes like Cassoulet and Chicken Cacciatore. It sounds too large for these dishes, but it's perfect for me because I cook large amounts and the sides of a stockpot help prevent the liquids from spilling over.

The 2qt and 3qt sauce pans are versatile for heating soup, cooking sauces, veggies, and smaller portions of whatever. I alse use the 2qt sauce pan as a butter warmer (because I just can't justify getting the All-Clad butter warmer).

These pieces look wonderful on the stove. They're a bit heavy, but you will get used to this. They are ovensafe; I never thought this was an important feature until I used the 3qt sauce pan to bake brownies and the 6qt stockpot to put the finishing touches on my Cassoulet. They are easy to clean. And they definitely make cooking more pleasurable.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice cookware, but..., December 27, 2002

This review is from: All-Clad LTD 9-Piece Cookware Set with Nonstick Fry Pan (Kitchen)

I just received this cookware about a week ago and have used it a couple of times. I bought it based on research and reviews. I must say that while it is aesthetically pleasing and durable, it is not as low maintenance as I expected. I followed directions on using low to medium heat, not putting salt without boiling the water first, etc. and I still found that when I made rice, there was residue left that was hard to remove. In other words, the pot no longer had the same shine after washing. Also I find that this cookware needs to be cleaned immediately after using, and I feel it requires complete drying so as not to give the water a chance to settle. Now, I am waiting for Bar Keeper's Friend to see if this will actually correct the residue problem. All in all, it is certainly fine cookware, and I'm quite happy with it regardless of the drawbacks I mentioned. If anyone has any suggestions, I certainly welcome them...
