Amazon.com Review
The bestseller among All-Clad's renowned cookware collections, the Stainless line provides serious and professional cooks all the virtues that make All-Clad's worldwide reputation unsurpassed. Key to its high performance is a three-ply, bonded construction. Sandwiched between layers of stainless steel is a thick core of pure aluminum that spreads heat evenly across the bottoms of pots and pans and all the way up the sides. The interior is 18/10 highly polished stainless steel, so it's stick-resistant as well as stain- and corrosion-resistant. The exterior is gleaming, magnetic stainless steel that works on induction as well as conventional stovetops, and, with care, remains beautiful during this cookware's lifetime warranty against defects--and beyond. This classic, straight-sided 6-quart saute pan makes clear why All-Clad's Stainless line is so popular. It's an imposing 13-1/2 inches in diameter (and 2-3/4 inches deep), large enough for a professional kitchen but fully functional in a home where big meals are prepared. Its polished 18/10 stainless-steel pan and lid handles are riveted for strength and grooved on the top for comfort. Like the pan's helper handle, the long handle (holed for hanging on a hook or peg) stays cool on the stovetop but won't be harmed by an oven's highest heat. Although Stainless cookware is dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. --Fred Brack

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.
A Great Saute Pan for Those Large Portions January 4, 2008
I got my 6 quart All Clad Stainless saute 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 saute 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 saute 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 saute 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 saute (6 Qt), sauce (4 quart), and fry (14") pans: it's just too short. It's all right for their other pans.
Great cookware October 10, 2007

We have tried a lot of brands of good cookware, but this beats them all! Excellent finish, solid construction. Very useful size, too. We will buy more of this brand and type.
Great Saute Pan!!! January 11, 2007

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!
