Coated inside and out with Dupont's exceptionally durable, three-layer Autograph nonstick, Anolon Advanced cookware provides heavyweight, professional-quality performance and 21st-century convenience. Pots and pans clean easily, while the rugged nonstick readily releases food. Beneath the nonstick is heavy-gauge, harder-than-steel anodized aluminum. Pot and pan bottoms are left uncoated to conduct heat quickly and prevent hot spots. Bright chrome handles have hanging holes for storage and soft, stay-cool rubber grips for slip-resistance. The grips are deep, narrow, and shaped ergonomically, permitting pans to be used comfortably despite their weight. Break-resistant, domed glass lids permit cooking to be monitored without releasing heat and are oven-safe to 375 degrees F. The cookware's charcoal gray, nonstick exterior has an attractive enamel-like appearance.
This 10-quart stockpot's size and shape make it ideal for simmering stock, soup, and large amounts of sauce, for cooking pasta, and for poaching a chicken. Without its lid, the pot stands 7-1/4 inches high and measures 10-1/2 inches in diameter. It carries a lifetime warranty against defects and should be hand washed. --Fred Brack
Product Description
Hard anodized aluminum is one of the best heat conductors around when it comes to cookware. It also heats evenly, so food cooks at a steady pace, wherever it's location in the pot or pan. Dupont Autograph 2 has been restaurant tested by professional chefs and has been found to surpass standard non-stick coatings both in performance and durability. This cookware is coated inside and out with Autograph 2 which makes cooking without added fat very easy, and which also makes cleaning up a snap. The handles are comfortable and securely riveted and the glass lids allow you to monitor cooking without loss of flavor, heat, or nutrients. This large capacity stockpot is handy for pasta of course, but also for ears of corn, a head of broccoli, even lobsters and crabs.
