WOW!! December 27, 2005

I love my tri-ply! Food sticks just enough to give some browned bits for deglazing (deglazes as if the stuff wasn't even stuck in the first place!). Clean-up is even easier than non-stick! Most everything wipes right out or flies off the surface with the sprayer on your sink!!! I have about 7 pieces of it now and love every one of them (hate my Calphalon Commerical on-stick!).
 Finest piece of cookware I own November 13, 2004

I've always liked the Calphalon products, but I lost my whole set a few years ago. When I found this piece on sale at such a reasonable price, I snapped it up. I've never enjoyed cooking so much in my life. The copper heats the pot evenly and quickly. It's a dream to keep clean. The lid fits perfectly.
The only thing I don't like about this piece is that the weight distribution on the handle is awkward. I have RMI which weakens my wrists and makes lifting and pouring off liquid difficult. A more ergonomic design to the handle would have been better.
However the ease of cleanup, the perfect heat conduction, and the outright beauty of the piece make up for any awkwardness. I love it so much I'm asking for the rest of the set for Christmas!
Even Heating Durable Pan September 28, 2004

This Pan heats so evenly that it is almost impossible to burn. I found no problem with the stainless steel being too soft. Cleaning is no problem either. The shape is great
A decent pot, made in China May 17, 2004

Yes, this pot has a solid feel. However, in design and manufacturing standards, it's not on par with All-Clad, or those Cuisinart and Caphalon products that are made in the USA. The weight of this utensil (5 lbs empty, about 11 lbs when filled with 3 quarts of water) paired with the relatively short handle make it slightly awkward in some situations. For example, its size make it ideal for cooking pasta for one or two people, but in that case I would have preferred that the pot have a second ("helper") handle or at least a longer single handle. As others have noted, both interior and exterior finish are brushed, rather than mirror finish, making it slightly more difficult to clean. However, I disagree that all other finishes look the same after several months. Mirror finishes remain so if a good quality paste copper cleaner is used. On the plus side: The lid of this pot fits well, and the handle of the lid is convenient. Overall, good value, but not 5 star quality.
An Excellent Piece of Equipment March 6, 2004

I recently purchased this pan, and my kitchen is all the better for it. Its best feature is its weight, which keeps it from being tipped over even when it holds very light ingredients. The handle is also superb, staying cool even on a very hot burner over a long period of time, and being more than sturdy enough to handle the body's considerable weight no matter what it contains.
The price is also quite reasonable for a pan of this quality. (It was so good, in fact, that I had it shipped, indirectly, all the way to Japan so I could use it for cooking local dishes).
I certainly wouldn't hesitate to buy another product from the manufacturers.
