All-Clad is the best. September 6, 2008
Look at most of the cooking shows and they use All-Clad. Emerel's pans are made by All-Clad but they are not the superior quality. With induction cooking taking over the market, you'll be set and not have to buy cookware for it. I own this size pan but not with the helper loop. If I had it to do over I would make sure I had the helper loop on all my pans and skillets too.
All-Clad Stainless 3-quart sauce pan rocks! February 8, 2008

All clad is the best cookware hands down! Most of my pieces are all clad. It's far superior in lasting quality and heat conducting ability. It might be too heavy for the very young, very old or weak to lift. I love this pan! It's a great size for many things! I highly recommend!
This thing is EXACTLY 4 quarts November 11, 2007

This thing is great. Be careful though. This thing is cold rolled. That means that the steel isn't quenched and tempered after it's been made into a saucepan as my understanding of cold rolling. And you can't temper this thing anyway since it's mostly solid aluminum bonded to stainless steel. I'm sure the two metals would just come apart due to their different rates of expansion.
I dropped in the sink a week after I got it and now there are two dents in them. They drive me crazy, but what are you going to do. I'm pretty sure All-Clad's lifetime warranty doesn't cover accidental abuse.
Beware. This saucepan is EXACTLY 4 quarts. I measured. Exactly 16 cups of water. That means that you'll never actually be able to cook 4 quarts of stuff in it because it'll boil over. This saucepan measures 3 quarts at the bottom of the clads. That means if you fill the saucepan to the bottom of the clads on the inside of the pan, you'll have 3 quarts of stuff roughly.
So keep that in mind when you're choosing a size. I thought this thing was too big for me originally because I only really wanted to cook 3 quarts of stuff, but the store I went to didn't have a 3 quart one so I got this instead. It turned out to be quite fortuitous since I ended up getting what I wanted. I didn't think about how a 3 quart pan wouldn't be able to cook 3 quarts of stuff.
So if you get a 4 quart saucepan, you'll have about 3 quarts of cooking capacity and if you get a 3 quart saucepan you'll have about 2 quarts of cooking capacity and so on. Keep that in mind when you choose the pan that's right for you.
Attractive, Heats Evenly, and the Loop Handle Is Indispensable. December 16, 2005

I owned a 3 -quart Calphalon Anodized Aluminum saucepan for about 12 years and had to get rid of it, because acidic foods had eaten away at the anodized surface, exposing shiny, softer aluminum underneath. So aluminum was getting in my food. I replaced that pot with the All-Clad 4-quart, because America's Test Kitchen rated the Calphalon Anodized and the All-Clad Stainless saucepans equally highly in heating up quickly and sauteing evenly without burning. The All-Clad has an aluminum core between layers of steel to distribute heat evenly. The exterior layer is magnetic stainless. The interior of the pot is 18/10 stainless.
This All-Clad pot doesn't impress me as being as indestructible as the Calphalon, and it isn't as heavy. But it has the advantages of a stay-cool handle and stainless surface that won't shed into my food. The loop handle doesn't stay cool, because it's short, but the long handle does. I can't get by without loop handles on my medium and large pots, so I was more than willing to pay extra for it. This pot weighs about 3 pounds empty, but it weighs 10 pounds full of liquid. If you are small or suffer from arthritis or stress-injured wrists, the loop handle will save your wrists and enable you to pick up the pot when you otherwise could not. And no struggles to balance the pot or danger of tipping!
The pot's shiny steel surface is attractive, but it limits your options in cleaning products. All-Clad recommends a fine powder cleanser, nylon scrubbing pad, or a commercial stainless steel cleanser. I find that Soft Scrub works well. Steel wool will scratch terribly and ruin the surface, so don't try that. One thing I don't like about stainless steel pans is that they get a blue and/or brown discoloration in the bottom if they overheat. The interior of this pot turned bluish just from boiling vegetables in water, but that disappeared after a few washings. I guess there's no such thing as a perfect pot. Every metal -aluminum, steel, or copper- has its idiosyncrasies. But I'm generally pleased with the All-Clad's performance.
What's not to like about All Clad pans... December 1, 2004

I bought this pan with the double boiler insert and find it a wonderful utensil for cooking. I like to keep cooked rice in the refrigerator for making stir fried rice. This pan with it's tight fitting lid allows me to make 4-5 cups at once. Cold rice works best in stir fry, so it's nice to be able to make the rice ahead on the weekend and have it chilled and on hand during the week. I plan to use the double boiler to make custard and for once not overflow on the burner. Be aware however, that All Clad has four different finishes and the finish on this pan is shiny.
