Product Description
Designed for cooking foods in a small amount of oil or butter while continuously tossing, stirring, or shaking, the saute pan is wide to provide ample room for food movement, with a flat bottom to slide smoothly back and forth on a burner, and straight sides keep food from sliding out. The slightly domed lid lets you finish a dish under cover without changing pans. Stick handle stays cool during normal stovetop use, and the helper handle makes it easier to lift when full.
• 3-Quart: This size is great for pan-frying potatoes or batter-dipped vegetables such as mushrooms, zucchini, or sliced green tomatoes; also wonderful for slow braising.
• 4-Quart: We like this pan for three-step cooking of steaks or chops: sear them over high heat, finish cooking in the oven, then return pan to the stove to make a wonderful sauce from meat drippings, wine (to deglaze), butter, and herbs.
• 6-Quart: Great for shallow braising, this 6-quart saute pan can also be used as a bain marie when preparing custards.
All-Clad's leading cookware line is brilliantly styled with a hand-polished gleaming stainless-steel finish that many of the world's professional and home chefs prefer. The 18/10 stainless-steel interior will not react with your food, leaving the pure taste you desire. Dishwasher-safe.

Summary: Nice product, well made 2008-07-24
Comment: I really like the weight of this product, it is heavy but not overly so, and well balanced on the range. I believe All Clad is still made in the US (or at least this product is) which I appreciate. I have a lot of All Clad pans, I have never been disappointed with them. They are more costly than most pans, but I will probably have them for life.

Summary: A Great Sauté Pan for Those Large Portions 2008-01-04
Comment: I got my 6 quart All Clad Stainless sauté pan about a month ago and I've been using it frequently. I cook large batches of meatballs with it and I'm impressed with how the meat does not stick, how well the meat browns, and how well the pan reaches temperature and returns to temperature, even as I place all the meatballs at once instead of in batches like with my old Calphalon 5 quart sauté pan.
My only suggestion to All Clad to improve this pan is to replace the long handle (the handle they use with the stainless line) with the longer handle they use with their Copper Core line (when the pan is 6 quarts). I notice that it is easier to handle my heavier Copper Core pieces than my stainless and LTD pieces when the pan is full. And the longer handle should also make it easier to remove the pan from the cache rack when the lid is stored through the handle. All Clad should also think about putting the longer handle on the larger pieces.
This pan is a keeper.
UPDATE January 4, 2008: I just converted from an electric range to a (natural) gas range (mine is a Wolf). When I used this sauté pan on my old electric range, I needed to rotate the pan while cooking since I placed it over two coil elements to try to keep the pan sufficiently heated. Now that I have a natural gas range, the French skillet's entire bottom heats evenly over a single gas burner. I no longer have to rotate the sauté pan.
One last note. If you have a gas range (mine is a Wolf) I really noticed just how quickly the Copper Core pans heats up when compared with the stainless and LTD lines. When I was using an electric range, I appreciated how quickly the Copper Cores heat up. My suggestion is to hold each pan and determine whether you can comfortably handle the weight of each pan and whether the pan's handles are comfortable to you. I like the longer length handles on the All Clad Copper Core pans. All Clad uses a different length and style handle for their LTD and stainless series than the Copper Core series. That standard length handle does not work for the larger sauté (6 Qt), sauce (4 quart), and fry (14") pans: it's just too short. It's all right for their other pans.

Summary: Great Saute Pan!!! 2007-01-11
Comment: I am a big fan of All-Clad (have several of their pans) and bought this pan for my father, who's becoming quite an adventurous cook since his retirement. We tried it out right after Christmas making a tomato sauce for homemade pizza, sauteing the onions and garlic to a sweet golden brown before adding the crushed tomatoes with puree. My father was particularly impressed with the fact that the pan distributed the heat so evenly that nothing burned or stuck despite being left unattended at times. The size is perfect for sauteing lots of things simultaneously or providing lots of surface area for a quick reduction. And the lid fits nice and snug--it could definitely be used as a braising pan, particularly in the oven. It's now his favorite pan and I'm sure he'll make lots of great meals with it!
