Cooks Standard Classic 5 Quart Stainless Steel Sauté Pan with Lid, 11 Inch Deep Frying Pan, Induction Cookware Cooking Saute Skillet, Jumbo Cooker with Stay-Cool Handle, Dishwasher & Oven Safe

A seriously great pan - it is big and deep and it has a lid. Since it is stainless steel, it is not exactly non-stick. But you can make it almost non-stick by heating it up, then adding your fat (butter, olive oil, etc.), then adding your meat and vegetables, which have been patted dry. Then continue making your dish. At the end, if there has been any sticking, this pan can be deglazed with wine or broth. And anyway, it washes up well and can be scrubbed if need be. It can go in the dishwasher too. This is also a beautiful pan - so shiny.

I rarely review products but this pan is so exceptional that I felt I needed to let people know. Prior to buying it, I had never used stainless steel. Every pan or pot I've ever used was non-stick. I could not get a great sear on my chicken or steak so I started trying new pans. I tried ceramic coated, copper, and Blue Diamond to name a few. I wasn't in love with any of them. I was afraid to try stainless because everyone says it's impossible to clean and food always sticks. I read the description for this pan and the seller gave very specific yet simple instructions for how to keep food from sticking and how to clean the pan. I took a chance, and I am sure glad I did! I've been using it every day for almost a month. I've cooked steak, potatoes, eggs, burgers, sausage, grilled cheese, and all kinds of other things in this pan. I've never had food stick and it's never been a problem to clean BUT I followed the seller's instructions. If you don't then those issues might become a problem. The instructions are simple. They work. You'll end up with the best tasting, most evenly cooked food you've ever made and an easy-to-clean pan. I will be buying these in every size I can get and I will NEVER own a different kind of pan or pot. This pan is a total game changer. The bottom is heavy so it stays at a consistent temperature. It cooks more evenly than anything I've ever used. It sears beautifully. It is extremely well made. It is oven safe to 500°. The seller gives you all the info you need to cook with and clean it. The instructions the seller provides are so simple and easy to follow. Just an amazing pan from a fantastic seller. As a side note, I do not know the seller, am not receiving anything for my review, and I paid the full price for this pan. I know there are a ton of reviewers out there that are paid or get free stuff to review. I am not one of them.

I love this pan. It's just the right size for tossing in a pound of meat to brown, sauteeing chicken breasts, veggies, whatever. It is NOT non-stick which is fine with me because I don't have to worry about the coating eventually coming off, and I can clean it with abrasives (if needed, haven't yet) without worrying about damage. It is not difficult to clean. It is a solid piece of cookware, meaning it gets rather heavy depending on how much you have in the pan. This can make it hard to pick up with one hand--but it has the 'helper' handle in those cases...and anyway, any pan can get heavy if you put enough in there. I happen to like the sturdiness of it, and it cooks very evenly which is wonderful. The lid fits well and makes a good seal. I am very happy with this purchase!

This is a very nice pan but it does have a tendency to pick up heat from the next burner since it is so wide. Even switching to other side had some burning and was a issue to clean. Otherwise it is well made and looks to be a life long pan. I was able to get it cleaned in the end as well and was very helpful in making larger dishes as it is my largest sauce pan. Also is a bit heavy so it is good to have the small handle on other end for stability moving. Very good value as well and I had little heat exchange to the vented handle . I would still use a glove to be safe.

Great quality and value. Very impressed with the performance of this pan. Big enough to cook steaks and chops and deep enough for making shellfish with pasta, vegetables, rice or braised dishes. I am pleased that the stainless steel lid was included and not charged separately. I can’t at this time speak about longevity of this pan, but it is a nice alternative to All-Clad, Cuisinart and other sauté pans at a higher price point.

A tank of a pan! This is our pot of choice for making gravy and anything that requires large volume . Have used on both flame and induction, works perfect. Have given this pan as a gift several times!

I love this skillet. It beats evenly, it's huge enough to make several burgers at once, and it looks amazing after daily use for over a year. The helper handle is a bonus, and the lid is solid! It prevents most steam from escaping. The steel is solid and doesn't scratch easily. You don't have to be as fussy with it as you do with nonstick pans, so metal utensils and a good scrubbing after use keep it looking good. You don't have to worry about coatings flaking off and making your food taste like burnt plastic. It doesn't warp easily (unless you subject it to unreasonably high heats when it's empty--ask me how I know). This is not a nonstick pan. It's important to understand that. Food will stick to this pan. You can minimize sticking by heating the pan, then adding your oil and allowing it to heat up before you add your food.

I am impressed. I did not have high expectations due to the low cost, but these Cooks Standard Stainless Steel pans are great! They look expensive and have a nice feel. I was considering another brand that costs a lot more, but thought I would give this a try first before going all in on the luxury brands. I have cooked with the large saute pan several times now. Excellent! I bought the stock pot too and it is very nice. The lid to my saute pan has a Cooks Standard black logo stamp on it. That is the only thing that I do not like. It is an odd location and does not look nice. It makes the lid look cheap. The stock pot’s lid does not have a logo stamp on it. Other than that, this cooks well and has a professional feel and appearance. It is also easy to clean. I am happy with this purchase.

excellent quality

love the frying pan however it is quite heavy but that also makes it sit flat a sturdy on the stove with no moving around it cleans up well the deep sides makes it great for making larger amounts and stir fries and so far cooks well we are still a little new at using stainless steel so there is a learning curve (I am turning 70 and my husband is 73 so the weight of it is my only concern for someone younger than us you won't have a problem unless you have any injuries with limitations

Heavy duty good product. Value for money. The delivery was fast and the product came nicely packed.

El producto es excelente, llega bien protegido, es pesado, de buena calidad se puede meter al horno. Derivado del uso estos equipos pierden brillo, algo esperado. Este es el segundo equipo que compro de esta marca. Lo recomiendo.

Mejor precio que en tiendas "club" Buena calidad
