I own a number of All Clad pieces, and was planning to buy this size saucepan from All Clad, but in reading reviews of tri-clad cookware, I came across Cuisinox Elite reviews that seemed interesting. I decided to buy this pot and see how it stacked up. I must say I was pleasantly surprised. It appears to have the quality of All Clad at a significantly lower price. It is well finished, the lid has a nice fit, and the pot is substantial.I just finished my first sauce in it, and I am even more impressed. It has great heat distribution, meaning that I was able to prepare a very thick, creamy sauce with no sticking to sides or bottom. I strongly prefer stainless to non-stick, for a number of reasons, and this is quality stainless. I believe it is equal to All Clad in overall finish and cooking qualities--and for a lot less money. I love my All Clad, but I am planning to buy my next piece of cookware from Cuisinox.
the only thing i noticedi is that it leavessome grey dots on the bottom of the saucepanI was looking for a clean healthy pan to replace all my tephlon and wanted something made in the us, the main brand that kept coming up USA made had many reviews that the handle was uncomfortable so I settled on this brand being made in Canada and I am very happy and will finish buying the rest of the sizes, I wouldnt mind a thicker handle but it's not uncomfortable at all, love the lid, and the measurements on the Inside.
