After reading about the possible health risks associated with Teflon, we carefully went shopping for stainless steel. While I agree that a lid would have been lovely, I must say this is a great pan even heat disbursement with a good sturdy feel to it. We have used it for everything grilled sandwiches, breakfast meats, searing, sauteing and just last night made a huge batch of homemade chili. Clean up is a snap! We love this pan! Just purchased one for my daughter.

I bought this skillet to sear salmon, before puttting it into a 425-degree oven. I am not sure if it is a good thing to put non-stick into a hot oven, so I bought this pan. It worked like a charm. It sears perfectly, and after the oven for 7 minutes, it was a mess. but it cleaned up shiny as new following the directions to fill with water, and clean with Bon Ami or a similar product. It was a brown mess but now looks like new. The important thing is to read the instructions that come with the pan. I think I'll order the other sizes since this one worked so well. I think it works as well as the All Clad pans I have but at a fraction of the price.

Cooks wonderfully! Foods brown uniformly (instead of brown towards the center and 'raw' nearer the edge). And the bottom is truly FLAT, which means liquids do not pool. Consequently, foods cook uniformly and require less re-arranging. Finally we love the handles. The long one stays cool and the short one opposite makes it easy to pour out liquids. Wonderful product!

Honest reviews on Cuisinart MultiClad Pro Stainless Open Skillet

First let me tell you I have no affiliation with All Clad what so ever I am a retired caterer. This is the first piece of Cuisinart cookware I have purchased.

Right out of the box this has the heft and looks of All Clad it is a beautiful pan. Howevever, as I do with all the cookware I purchase I put it on a level surface and see if it wobbles. Unfortunately this one does to a small degree. This means that unless you are cooking on a gas stove you will get uneven heat.

The way Amazon is bouncing around it's pricing I got this one a few days ago at a real good price with Amazon prime. I will keep this pan for that reason and to remind me you get what you pay for.

Before all the reviewers who believe there should never be a negative review written about a product they adore please remember this may not be an issue to you but it could be a big issue to someone else.

If the price of this cookware brings the masses back to stainless steel cooking I am all for it. Getting away from teflon is the best step you can make in not only improving your health but also your cooking skills.

I got three stainless steel pans at the same time both the 10-inch and the 12-inch Cuisinart and an All-Clad casserole with lid. The 10-inch Cuisinart seems to be okay, but the 12-inch pan developed a hot-spot in the center, which burned the food and discolored the pan the first time I used it. The discoloration is in the form of bluish spots that are visible on the outside center of the pan, and which I believe indicate a flaw in either the aluminum core, or in the bonding process. ... I know how to cook with stainless pots, so did not use excessive heat. I returned the 12-inch pan, and am using the 10-inch one to give it a good test before I'll keep it. I've also been using the All-Clad pan, and do believe there is a quality difference between the two brands, with All-Clad being superior. I also like the fact that the All-Clad is made in the USA. I've purchased a 12-inch skillet of that brand to replace the one I returned. (A big thumbs up for the Amazon.com return policy. Since the pan was flawed, they even paid the return postage!)

Update: I really like the Cuisinart MultiClad Pro 10 inch skillet. I cook eggs and make omelets in it with absolutely no sticking. I wipe out the pan with a paper towel and it sparkles like new! The Cuisinart pan has a turned edge, so pouring contents can be done with no dripping. The All Clad pan does not have that feature, and the price of All Clad 12-inch skillets is prohibitive, so I am going to try another one of the Cuisinart MultiClad Pro 12-inch skillets. Maybe the faulty one I got was a fluke. I'll update again if there is more to add.

***Update #2I now have-and have usedmy Cuisinart MultiClad Pro 12 inch skillet, and have updated the review to 5 stars. I've attached a short video of the first effort at frying eggs in it. After frying the eggs, I let the pan cool and wiped it out with a paper towel. Again, NO WASHING NECESSARY! Fabulous. (I do think my first experience with the skillet I returned WAS a fluke. Thank goodness for the Amazon.com return policy!!) I do hold to the statement that All Clad is superior, but I can't afford it. Wish I could!)

****Update #3 I've never misused the 12" skillet by "shocking" it with cold water when it is hot, but it is now warped so that it does not sit flat on my glass cooktop. It's junk now.

All three pans are truly beautiful, and I've not had a problem with sticking other than the above mentioned, of course. Here is the trick to keep in mind, for those who are newbies to cooking on other than non-stick surfaces: "Hot pan, cold oil." The pan should be heated on medium until water drops skitter around on the surface, then oil can be added. It does not take much oil!!! Add the food to be cooked when the oil is heated. If the oil spatters while you are cooking, the pan is too hot. I never use heat higher than 6 on my stove dial, which would be medium high. That would be searing heat.

In addition, there are websites online which tell how to season a stainless pan to make it non-stick. It really works!!
