We replaced all of our teflon and other “non stick” pots and pans with Cuisinart Stainless steel cookware. There is a small leaning curve but anyone with little cooking skill can work it out. They are beautiful in my new kitchen, they are sturdy and durable, and the quality is top notch.

This pan is a perfect size for so many cooking projects. I use this a lot. It is very high quality and has held up very well to a lot of cooking abuse. Stainless steel is the only way to go for cooking. Once you learn how to use stainless, then it works great. I haven't had any problems cleaning this, and it is very easy to clean. And the metal is the perfect thickness and material.

In 2003 we bought an entire set of Cuisinart stainless steel pots and pans. They ended up being the best we have even owned and we still use them today. Outstanding heat distribution, durability and easy of cleaning. No matter what we cooked in them we could easily clean them; rinsing them out, adding about an inch of water and a tablespoon of salt, bring the water to a boil and then let it cool. After that it really only took a quick wipe with a soapy sponge, cold water rinse, drip dry and it was good as new. After over 15 years of reliable use I mistakenly forgot about the pan while boiling the water to clean it and it boiled dry and started smoking. Without thinking I ran water over the pan and that severely warped the bottom… A mistake I will never live down… Anyway I quickly purchased a replacement but it wasn't the same. After about a year of use the bottom was warped and the inside had a few pock marks in the metal. Just not the same quality… We later purchase a second 5 1/2 qt multi-purposed pot and that quality was lacking as well. Come to find out, the original set wasn't the "Classic" style but the more expensive MultiClad Pro. Eureka! I found the outstanding Cuisinart cookware I've been looking for. This is the higher quality I've come to expect from Cuisinart. I'm buying more as I type…

I spent more hours than I want to admit researching and choosing pots and pans. I ordered several different sets including Cuisinart's Chef's Classic 7-piece set and the MultiClad Pro 7-piece set. I ended up returning both and purchased individual pots. If you purchase Multiclad pots individually, you don't end up paying too much more than a full set would cost, but you can choose the exact pans you want. I purchased a 10" saute pan, 1.5qt sauce pan, and 4qt sauce pan and I use every pan almost every day. If I bought the 7- or 12-piece set, I'd save some money per pan, but many of the pans (8qt stockpot, for example) would sit idle.
I really liked the idea of getting a saute pan because it holds way more food and is more versatile. I can cook for 2-5 people with the same pan, whereas the 10" frying pan that comes with the 7-piece set can barely make enough for 3 people.
It cooks very evenly and like others have said, can be made non-stick with the right preparation. Simply warm up the pan first, then add oil, and once that is nice and hot, add your foods. I made the best crepes I've ever made in this pan with no sticking at all!
The look and feel of the pan is also excellent. It's heavy and high-quality, but not too heavy. Also, the brushed stailess exterior with the mirror-finish rim is so sexy, if a pan can be called sexy. I like these so much that I always want to clean them up and they make me happy every time I see them!
Get this, it's highly recommended! It's too bad it costs as much as the 5 1/2 quart saute pan 🙁

I switched to this cookware, from Cuisinart's "Chef's Choice", because the bottom discs kept delaminating from my skillets. This set has triple ply throughout, so there is no bottom disc to come loose. There are pros and cons related to this set (and, to this type of cookware, in general):
These pots are, undeniably, more durable. These pots are much heavier. On an induction stovetop, these pots take significantly longer to heat up (water in my small pot boils in 90s in the lighter pots, but takes a full 2 minutes in these pots). My biggest complaint is that these pots cook on the sides of the pot, not just on the bottom. For some things, like candy, you don't want heating on the side. Also, more work to clean these, since food doesn't just stick on the bottom of the pan, but also on the sides. Also, since the sides of these pots cook, they are hot, and the small handles will get too hot to hold (which doesn't happen with the bottom-disc type cookware).

Had this for years now, still my favorite pan. Disperses heat well, easy to clean, no chemicals leaching into my food.

I'm newish to using stainless pans but I loved the size and shape of this one and decided to give it a shot. I am so glad I did! It's the perfect size for almost any one pot meal. I've made spaghetti, fried several chicken breasts, made 4 pancakes at a time, and it's been perfect for all. The heat conduction is fantastic and if you keep it on medium low it will serve you well. Once it's heated up food cooks fairly quickly and I haven't had any issues with overheating or burning. If you are someone who needs to cook for multiple people or meal preps this is a fantastic pan and a great deal.
