Review: this is really a great pan - I got this pan on kind of an impulse, after seeing all of the positive reviews and the reasonable price. The short version of this review is that its good; very good. I should note, however, that given all of the positive reviews, you shouldn't assume its just a magical pan (though it actually is) when you first get it. The truth is that the pan by itself is just mediocre, and it does require that you follow the tried and true steps to keeping your food from sticking to stainless steel cookware (just heat your pan up for a few minutes, and add cold oil, and when you add your proteins, make sure you don't let them sit on the pan for the first 10-15 seconds of cooking, and you'll be good to go). The pan itself is beautiful and shiny, but its not the most conductive pan, and the large size makes it so that you get cold spots around the edges. Also, because the pan is designed with a multi-layer bottom rather than being multi-ply, the sides won't ever really heat up. These things, however, are irrelevant, because you're not just buying a pan, you're buying a pan AND an amazing lid. This pan's forte is cooking large, saucy dishes. I've found that its my new favorite pan for saucy pastas, and the green curry i made in the pan last night was the best i've ever made. Because it is a big pan, you can fit all of the saucy goodness and vegetables and other things you'd like to fit, but because its shallow, it'll get those sauces to a simmer very quickly (like i said, the center of the pan simmers while the outside stays cool, at least on my electric cooktop, but its still overall much faster than any pot). Because the pan doesn't conduct heat all the way to the outsides, it requires a bit of stirring, but its not difficult, like gently folding your sauce in on itself. The real magic happens, though, when you move from the sauté and reducing your sauce to the part where you just want it to simmer. At this point, you might put the lid on, and some really great chemistry happens to make your dish come alive. Because of the lid's shape, the steam rising from the dish gets redirected to the edges of the pan, and will get your whole dish simmering and melding flavors together while keeping your protein from drying out. The pan is really beautiful, and once you're done cooking, you'll probably just want to bring it right to the table, because it really does look that good. As far as cleanup goes, I've found that I end up deglazing the pan to make some type of sauce, so anything that was stuck when i started cooking is long gone by the time i'm done, and the slight discolorations that I've had from occasionally burning something in the pan (oops!) were taken care of with a little barkeeper's friend, no sweat. This is a great pan, and its added a whole new level of flavor to my curries and pasta sauces. It feels like its going to last a long time in my kitchen!
Review: Great pan. - It was unclear to me from the video that the top had a stainless cover, and not a transparent one. However, it is exactly the same size as the glass cover of the pan it replaced. Now we have two interchangeable covers. Otherwise it it great. We love the light weight and substantial (10 ") flat bottom. We find it very easy to clean. The two handles are much better than a single long handle. It works very well with our induction cook top.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many quarts does the pan hold?**
A: I just put the pan in my sink and filled it to the very brim 4 times with my one quart pan.  I would not feel comfortable putting more than 3 quarts of anything in the pan while cooking, but to the rim it took 4 quarts of water.

**Q: Can this pan be used on an induction range?**
A: I have this pan. And it works wonderfully on my induction range. Heats quickly and evenly. Love it!

**Q: Would someone measure the diameter of the bottom of the pan; the part that would come in contact with a heating element?**
A: My pan measures 9.5 inches.

**Q: How deep is the frying pan (without the lid?)  I saw someone said it was 2 1/4 inches deep, but the product description says 2 4/5 inches deep...?**
A: I measured and would agree with the 2 1/4" depth description... That is measured without lid... Bottom of pan to edge... But the other answer is way more precise and technical... So go with what that person said... ;-)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect food, perfect clean up
*by D***E on February 16, 2016*

After dealing with those awful non-stick pans which litter the Good Wills and re-sale shops (there's a reason for that,) this large, deep, versatile pan is A KEEPER. Makes perfect bacon (and as an added bonus - the grease doesn't spatter all over the stove.) Makes perfect skillet lasagna, etc. The key is to let the empty pan heat up for 5 minutes on med-high. Then, turn the heat down to medium and add your oil (or bacon without oil obviously.) Let the oil heat up on medium for about 3 minutes and then add your food. Food does NOT stick. The fond build up is fabulous and the food comes out flavorful and perfectly cooked. I am SO DONE WITH THE TEFLON THING. To clean up this pan, let it cool off for about 20 minutes then soak it in hot soapy water in the sink for about 30 minutes. It cleans up like a dream. If you're picky about "the shiny" just use a product made for that sort of thing (Barkeepers Friend, etc.) Personally, I think pans are for cooking and I am not really too concerned if they look perfect. BUT, with that said, I am also a pot rack person and do appreciate pretty, shiny pans. By the way, I do own a beautiful set of the all-clad Cuisinart pots and pans (which have the aluminum-clad stainless steel all the way to the rims and not just a disk on the bottom of the pan,) but this pan, although it is not all clad, really is just as good for all intents and purposes. The domed lid is wonderful and also very pretty. You can't go wrong here for the price.
