Culinary Contemporary 3-Ply Stainless Steel Sauté Pan with Lid, 4.8 Quart

If you’re looking to pull the trigger on a stainless steel sauté pan this is the one! Its build quality is superb with a nice heavy duty feel to it. Even the lid is among the nicest I’ve ever seen or felt. It has a very solid feel too — with two small vent holes built into the glass; allowing it to vent freely so you can see through the glass clearly. The heat distribution is ideal, and the pan is heavy enough that warping will never be an issue. Heat first, then add the oil, and nothing will stick. If, by chance, something ever does: simply fill it with some hot water and a little Dawn, and let it soak. It’ll come out.

Replaced kitchen stove with glass top and purchased these stainless steel pans to cook with. Excellent choice! The pans are being used in line with the manufacturer's instructions. Pre-heat oiling and no real high heat. Vented lids! They clean up great! Food usually slides right out of the pans. Slight scrubbing every now and then, but holding up very well. Great looking too!

This is my favorite pan. What a beast! I meal prep in this bad boy and the quality is superb. Makes me feel like a pro when I'm cooking, it's VERY consistent on the heat. Stainless stickiness is exactly what I expected and works great when you oil it the right way. Looks amazing and cooks even better. A bit more money than you'd expect for the value, but you're buying it for life for sure.

Quality in a pan

This is an excellent quality pan. Very large, even heat distribution and easy to clean (as far as pans go because I HATE washing pans). My husband bought this so we can cook items that aren't recommended for our cast iron and black steel pans (ie tomato sauces,etc) and we specifically do not buy pans with nonstick coating anymore. I'm so glad he tried this one. Were going to start replacing our sauce pans with tag these as needed. These will last a long time.
