The ultimate in beautiful, high-performance cookware, All-Clad's innovative Copper Core collection combines the unexcelled heat conductivity of copper with the easy maintenance of stainless steel. Crafted in a unique five-ply construction, the cookware contains a core of pure copper that spreads heat quickly and evenly across the bottoms of pots and pans and all the way up the sides. Aluminum layers bond the copper to a stainless-steel interior and exterior. Enhancing the cookware's appearance, a stripe of the copper core elegantly encircles the gleaming, mirror-finish exterior. The interior is highly polished, so it's stick- as well as corrosion-resistant. Rolled edges on pots and pans help prevent drips during pouring and ensure tight-fitting lids.This beautiful, classic, slope-sided fry pan demonstrates why All-Clad's worldwide reputation is unsurpassed. It's 10 inches in diameter, perfect for searing a hunk of halibut or a hanger steak. Its 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. The long handle stays cool on the stovetop but won't be harmed by an oven's highest heat. Hand washing this pan will preserve its jewel-like beauty during its lifetime warranty against defects--and beyond. --Fred Brack
Product Description
Up until now All-Clad's excellent heat conductivity has been a result of an aluminum core. Another metal equally efficient when it comes to conducting heat is copper. All-Clad now has a complete line of copper core stainless steel cookware which uses bonded 5-ply construction to achieve culinary perfection. The copper core is exposed in an attractive band around each piece, adding warmth, color, and authenticity. Unlike pans with an abundance of exposed copper, these pieces clean easily and are lined with durable food-safe stainless steel. The mid-sized fry pan is a kitchen staple, capable of browning a couple of chicken breasts, sauteing enough shrimp and veggies for a smallish family meal and scrambling eggs or making French toast for Sunday brunch.

I'm hooked!!! September 15, 2008
I'd like to give this 10 stars as I had no idea the difference a pan like this could make.
I have had it for a week and have used it for crab cakes (crab, egg, and breading), omelets, sauteed vegetables, and thick-cut pork chops. I mention these items because in my old Farberware stainless steel pans, sticking, uneven cooking, and uneven browning were a problem that I thought was just my lack of skill.
Heat distribution is perfect all over, i.e., the items on the outside cook the same in the same amount of time as those on the inside. Browning is effortless and beautiful! The fond on the bottom of the pan is not burned and deglazing is a breeze. Since I could only afford the one pan so far, I sometimes cook alongside my other pans. It's like switching from driving a Ford Pinto to a Mercedes (or so I imagine) and back again.
Cleanup has been great! So far I haven't had any problems with stuck food - the delicate crab cakes held together when I flipped them (with a gorgeous golden crust), and the omelets released easily. I used just enough butter and oil to cover the bottom of the pan, and it got hot enough to cook the food in the right amount of time to keep the food from absorbing too much oil and tasting greasy, without getting so hot that it scorched or stuck.
The pan is definitely heavier than what I'm used to, but the balance is perfect and handling it is not a problem. The handle stays very cool, surprisingly so...it has barely even gotten warm. Finally, the icing on the cake is how absolutely beautiful this pan is. It is definitely a display piece. I can only afford two items in this line per year, but my collection is started and there is NO going back.
If you really love the process and adventure of cooking, this is an investment you will never regret!!!
All-Clad #1 May 12, 2008
After having owned most major brands of cookware, I am convinced that All-Clad is #1. The copper core simply makes it even better by causing it to heat more quickly and evenly.

My cruddy old Teflon cookware is shedding its lining, so I researched extensively for good quality cookware that would both perform well and sustain some longevity. In my search I discovered All Clad - so I thought, what's $200 for a frying pan?
I chose the 12" copper core frying pan and I love it! Besides being such a beautiful addition to my kitchen, it does all it has been purported to. I have not been able to burn anything! Everything I have cooked has turned out perfectly. The copper core indeed distributes the heat quickly and evenly.
Clean up also is a breeze. The cooked-on food easily lifts with a bit of soaking. I love the shine and luster of the stainless steel so I use Barkeepers Friend to restore both the sparkly finish and the pink glow of the copper stripe.
The pan is heavy, since I'm no chef it has been a bit difficult for me, but the more I use it the more adept I become at manipulating it. The 12" may be too large for everyday purposes, so I am looking into getting the 8" for simple daily tasks like scrambling eggs, frying an omelette, or quick stir frying.
Since experiencing such quality and perfection I believe the price is worth it. I will gradually incorporate more pieces into my kitchen and toss out all that nasty Teflon cookware. Using stainless steel that will last for many many years and won't eventually poison my cooking through shedding is a valid incentive. But truthfully, this cookware is so aesthetically pleasing I just love looking at it - it's like adding art to my home, a kitchen sculpture! I am an All Clad convert now.

This item was my first introduction to All- Clad and now I can't imagine buying anything other than what they offer. The Copper Core line is my favorite - each pan has 5 layers starting with stainless steel, followed by a layer of aluminum, then copper in middle, aluminum on top and finished with stainless steel as the cooking surface. Since copper is the finest heat conducting material when it comes to cooking - but a real pain to clean if one gets the copper cookware since it tarnishes easy - this is the best of both worlds; high and fast heat distribution not to mention it heats up evenly all over and it's quite easy to clean. The copper band is visible at the bottom of the pan and at the rim.
Food doesn't stick if I use the pan on medium heat, in fact lower heat it works so well that I never have to crank up the fire, and food cooks evenly all over. This makes anything from breakfast eggs to steak or anything and the pan itself looks stunning. The metal is so shiny it reminds me of molten silver and when I soak it a little after the pan cools the clean up is pretty easy. I use the powder cleanser, called Barkeepers friend - and no abrasive sponges because they scratch the surface. I would also recommend using wooden or plastic utensils, silicone coated spatulas are good as well. After using this pan my collection of All Clad expanded to a few more pieces and they are not only versatile but pleasant to cook in, I can't recommend this line enough - no money or time would be wasted with the Copper Core collection.

I have several pieces from the Copper Core line, and this fry pan is truly one of my most-used and most beloved pieces. You have already read its countless merits (even-heating, beautiful browning, etc.), so I won't repeat. But to new users, the key to making the most of this cookware is to turn your heat down a notch - especially if you are used to cooking with hard-annodized/nonstick. Also, when browning meat or vegetables, allow the food to sit in the pan without immediately stirring or flipping. As the foods natural moisture and oils are released, the food will brown carmelize and release itself. Deglazing in this cookware is a dream.
With good tools and ingredients, cooking can be amazing pleasure and adventure in creativity rather than a chore. This is cookware that will re-inspire your time in the kitchen.
