Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Great kitchens start with top-quality, high-performance All-Clad cookware. The popular stainless steel collection is constructed of a durable, hand-polished 18/10 stainless steel surface and a pure aluminum core. It features extra-long, stay-cool handles and snug-fitting lids. Whether you're an accomplished home cook or just a beginner, let All-Clad cookware be your kitchen companion for years to come. All-Clad cookware carries a limited lifetime warranty.

Amazon.com Review:
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 layers of stainless steel lies 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 18/10 stainless steel, so it's stick-resistant 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, will remain beautiful during this cookware's lifetime warranty against defects--and beyond.

This rounded, woklike pan with a narrow, flat bottom makes clear why All-Clad's Stainless is so popular. It's 12 inches in diameter and 3 inches deep, perfect for stir-frying pad thai or cooking asparagus in black bean sauce under its domed lid. Its long, polished 18/10 stainless-steel handle is riveted to the pan for strength, grooved on the top and rounded on the bottom for comfort, and holed in the end for hanging on a hook or peg. Like the pan's helper handle, it stays cool on the stovetop but won't be harmed by an oven's highest heat. Although Stainless cookware is dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. --Fred Brack

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - What can I say... it's All-Clad
Perfect and perfect again. Love this pan... it's heavy duty and handles many different tasks. Buy it... you won't be sorry.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Be careful of Amazon's misinformation
I recently received the "copper core" version of this pan as a gift and, though I have not used it much yet, I think it is necessary to mention that the Amazon product description is wrong--this pan is not a wok, or "wok-like" in anything more than a superficial sense (it has rounded sides). It is much shallower than a standard wok, and has a much larger flat portion on the bottom than a standard flat-bottom wok (it is more like a deep skillet with a lid than it is wok-like). Yes, one could stir ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Pan
I loved this pan. It is really solid,and it cleans up so well for being stainless and not a non stick service.
Also I love All-Clad.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Can not replace a traditional Chinese wok
I bought this pan four years ago and planed to use it as an everyday wok, mainly to make stir-fry dishes. After years of use, I finally have to admit that it is not a good replacement for a traditional Chinese wok. However, I still like it overall. It has even heat distribution, versatile, sturdy, easy to clean, well-made, and looks nice.

If you are looking for a stir-fry wok, don¡¦t get this pan and choose a traditional carbon steel wok instead. One major disadvantage of this Chef¡¦s ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Expensive, but very nice
All-Clad makes some outstanding cookware, but I must confess that I own very few of their products, due in large part to the price. I find cast iron to be a much better material for cookware and it is immensely affordable. I highly reccommend Lodge Cast Iron.

That said, stainless has a few advantages as well and this piece in particular is a testament to the quality of All-Clad's craftwork. It is a heavy, durable piece that holds heat well (though a cast iron wok will do the same thing for 1/10 ... Read More
