Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Designed for serious cooks, Cuisinart's MultiClad pots and pans heat quickly and uniformly thanks to an aluminum core bonded between layers of 18/10 stainless steel. The core runs not only across the bottoms but all the way up the sides to disperse heat evenly throughout food. The nonreactive interior layer is highly polished, so it's naturally stick-resistant as well as resistant to discoloration and corrosion. A polished band just below the pots' and pans' rims handsomely accents their brushed exteriors. Add a deep-set, tight-fitting, polished lid, a tapered rim for drip-free pouring, and polished handles riveted for strength and this classic, straight-sided, 5-1/2-quart sauté pan is ideal for sautéing, frying, or one-pan cooking a family-size meal. For braising, the pan is oven-safe to 500 degrees F. It measures 11-1/2 inches in diameter and 3-3/4 inches deep. Though it's dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended to maintain the pan's beauty throughout its lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

5.0 out of 5 stars Cuisinart Multiclad Stainless 5-1/2- Qt. Saute Pan, April 17, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Cuisinart TPC33-28H MultiClad Pro Stainless 5-1/2-Quart Saute Pan with Helper Handle & Lid (Kitchen)

I have been looking at the All-Clad brand of cookware for some
time, but the price put it out of my range. I came across the
Cuisinart Multiclad line,and decided to try one. It's hard to
tell anything about a product from a picture, but I thought
I'd try. When it came in I was very pleased. It is every
bit as good as the All-Clad line. The workmanship on this
pan is flawless. The finish is beautiful. The weight is perfect.
Not light, but not overly heavy. I plan to buy a piece every
so often until I have a great set of cookware. If you are
looking for a professional piece of cookware that is as
beautiful as it good you need to look very close at this line.

5.0 out of 5 stars Functional and Quality, February 14, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Cuisinart TPC33-28H MultiClad Pro Stainless 5-1/2-Quart Saute Pan with Helper Handle & Lid (Kitchen)

This is a great pan and one I find using a lot. When it arrived, I immediately put it to use in sauting lots of vegetables used in a stuffing mix for a Thanksgiving dinner. This pan has also been used to fry up bacon, chicken, poach eggs, chicken breasts, and salmon fillets. I have braised pot roast and pork chops without it becoming dry or worse, the pan drying out and burning. This pan has some heft to it and stays put on the burner without it bouncing or sliding around. It can take high and low heat without any hot spots to cause any problems. The long handle, helper handle are both sturdy and the lid fits tight. Clean up is a breeze. If food has stuck or burned on, a short soak of hot soapy water with a nylon scraper cleans it up beautifully. Although it is dishwasher safe, I have never put it into the dishwasher prefering to wash it by hand. On ocassion I use a little rub of Bar Keepers Friend to keep it looking in brand new condition. I am more than well pleased on the size, quality and workmanship of this pan. I find this pan comparable to the All Clad line when I was looking for new cookware to replace my old set, but at a much better and at a much more affordable price. It is a great pan and I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for high quality professional type equipment.

5.0 out of 5 stars A GREAT PAN FOR SAUTEING FOR THE FAMILY, December 16, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Cuisinart TPC33-28H MultiClad Pro Stainless 5-1/2-Quart Saute Pan with Helper Handle & Lid (Kitchen)

I got this pan 6 weeks ago and I love it. It browns very nicely and can cook more food in less time due to it's good size. It cleans up easily , as well. I only wish I waited to a few weeks to buy it [since it's now less expensive]... What a buy!
