If cooking for more than 4, the 4 Qt Saute pan gives some advantages (which I also own, but use only a fraction of how often I use this 3.). ==USES==. I use a saute pan for conventional and not-so-conventional usage. It is my primary fry pan...the lid keeps grease splash less than that of an open top fry pan, and the sides and lid allow the usage of radiating heat which unlike a normal fry pan, can be used to cook meats that you want to get a higher internal temp without burning the outside. It is my go-to for any kind of sauce, chili, braised meat, stew, most soups that are not in large quantity, my primary sear pan for steaks, chicken, and pork, and an oven pan for 2-stage cooking (ex: I do a ribeye by heating this pan in the oven at 500 or more degrees, sear it on high heat on the stove, and then return it to the oven in this pan. --excellent usage of radiating heat (great for steak if you prefer to sear on high heat and then slowly bake until medium-rare – the Saute’s ability to radiate produces juicy chicken breast even without brining). --lack of reactivity thanks to the steel (you can use any food, acidic or basic, without worry or a need to season). --durability thanks to the steel (I’ve dropped these more than I want to admit). --the ability to throw these in a dishwasher, or clean them with an abrasive or acidic compound. --lighter weight than cast iron while still giving excellent quality heat transfer. --no coatings to progressively flake or fail. --no health concerns over the materials regardless of how hot the heat is used (non-stick + super high-heat = bade idea). --the ability to function like a boss whether it is on an electric, gas, induction stove, an oven, a commercial broiler, or over an open pit flame. --you can use stainless utensils and copper cleaning pads on this without worry. --a service life that will outlast 99.9% of the people on the planet. ==IT MIGHT SAVE YOU MONEY==. Yes, the initial price is high, but I call it an investment from a financial and a health perspective. If you like your cooking tools, you will cook more, most likely, and I think clad cookware makes better food, further encouraging you to cook more. I use my 3Qt Saute pan about 2-3 times A DAY and I am very hard on this pan, even more-so than other All-Clads I have."
"Just a couple of months ago, after having a conversation asking if they'd examine some of my cookware (the bottoms on those pieces were not flat enough to use on my glass top range without spinning around), I mailed off 4 of my larger pieces."
"Nice size, I had another pan that was more like a frying pan with sloped sides, this holds plenty and with the 2 handles is easy to maneuver."
"Tried to condition it....still sticks."
"....ALL CLAD is a "tried and true" company, & the products are consistently great!"
"Great price."
"Requires a bit more work to keep clean ("shiny") over non-stick, but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend All-Clad to serious cooks willing in invest a bit in their hobby."
"Both handles are not aligned, and the long one is slightly bent."

Find Best Price at Amazon"It makes sense that some people may have simply overlooked this, and started boiling water, cook steak etc, on high heat and then been confused as to why things were burning."
"I decided to go with stainless steel because no matter how much it sticks, you can always get it out with Bar Keepers Friend, soaking or as a last resort; steel wool. Read all the reviews before getting it and noticed a lot say it does not heat up well enough, it sticks, it doesn't clean well, the lid is too heavy and the wok is too light, and to only use it on medium low heat to avoid burned or stuck food. I tried it on medium low heat and it had so little heat that I could touch the sides of the pan and it wast even warm to the touch. I finally decided to use it on high heat, which is how stir-fry is supposed to be cooked at and everything worked great. Whatever leftover food stains on the wok can be worked out with some soaking and Bar Keepers Friend. As for the wok being too light, that's generally how it should be as the method used during stir-fry is to lift the wok up with one hand and dish/scrape the food onto a place with the other. If there's still food stains, use Bar Keepers Friend. I'm happy with this purchase."
"However... the rivets that they used to attach the handles onto the cookware are made of cheap crap. The first time I made a soup in the stock pot I had to store the pot in the fridge for a couple of days. I don't understand why you would make a good pan, but attach the handles with cheap product that break down from simple food and washing over time."
"How a manufacturer van make a pot and handles out of stainless steel and use a rivet with a lesser grade of SS is I am sure not a design flaw but a part substitution."
"After it was done, I turned the heat OFF, took some on my plate and put the lid on to keep the rest of the food warm."
"While the pan is nice, I received a defective glass lid that shattered the first time I used it, while cooking with it."
"I commented on another review that wrote that the glass top shattered, but I feel the need to write another so that this can product can have a lower star review and to encourage people NOT to buy this product. This is a big safety issue that has seriously made me consider not buying any Cuisinart products as this should have been tested."
The cookware’s hard-anodized aluminum construction heats quickly and offers long-lasting strength, while its warp-resistant even-heat base distributes heat evenly throughout for optimal cooking results. The T-fal Ultimate 10-inch saute pan features tall sides and a wide base that make it useful for a wide range of cooking techniques, from browning and frying to sautéing vegetables or searing fish. Hard Titanium nonstick interior for the ultimate and longest lasting performance.

Find Best Price at Amazon"No one likes having his or her food come out burnt on the outside and undercooked on the inside, or one side being more cooked than the other due to burner `hot spotting'. Good quality cookware with a more even heating transfer is one of the easiest ways to avoid this. $1,000 on a set of standard All-Clads, a few niche pots for your favorite food types with a steamer, and a nice cutlery set (Shun or Mosimoto, for example) is something that will last decades where as spending $10 a day on lunch doesn't last long at all, but it sure adds up fast. The durability of these over the models costing ¼ to ½ the price is also pretty substantial. And if you move to a place with a different stove, you can take comfort in knowing that All-Clad cookware excels with gas, electric, induction, side-heat, and open pit cooking. Exotic cookware such as enameled iron, carbon steel, carbon fiber, ceramic, and organic materials all have some positives, but weaknesses at the points of either costs, durability, heat conductivity, upkeep, or a combination of the above...and these issues are enough to exclude these from fitting the needs of most people. Stainless on the outside, aluminum on the inside (and with All-Clad's higher end models, add copper and multiple cores). Also, many people note that the rivets on the handle of All-Clad makes cleaning in the area somewhat difficult...and I agree. The rivets are massive and as soon as you pick up a pot and run your finger over them, you will see they are heavy duty. The little extra cleaning effort is worth this level of durability as those rivets will give decades of great usage. A 30 second clean with Bar Keeper's Friend will make them looking consistently good with minimal effort. If they show a few scratches, who cares?...it's a device used to make food, not an art museum display. I don't like these, and if you spend a lot on cookware, I would advise NOT buying anything that is labeled as non-stick and a coating is what is used to give non-stick properties. If you are thinking about clad, get the stainless surfaces as it will be easier to maintain, last longer, and can withstand incredible abuse. Also, cooking practice makes it easier to reduce sticking with stainless cookware...for example, something like olive oil and slightly lower heat does wonders."

My iron skillets and kettles are so well-seasoned I don't expect to ever have to use it to clean any of them, but I can recommend it for all of the above cleaning jobs and have no reason to doubt that it works well at restoring cast iron."
"I've always used stainless steel scrubbers on my cast iron, but they would get really dirty and they're really hard to clean, so I'd throw them out and get a new one each time I cleaned my cast iron."

"The factory rack comes with 12 hanging hooks which will hold a complete pot/pan set minus the Utensil's (as mine sit in a metal bin for them on the counter this isn't an issue for me). The chain that comes with the rack is I believe a plastic composite NOT METAL, you may want to go to your local hard ware store and get metal as I know I will soon. The center metal rack just sits on top of 4 metal tabs so I don't recommend putting anything too heavy on it, however one pot and some lids should be more than fine."
"It really is the BEST priced rack on Amazon, the others are unbelievably costly and this one serves exactly the same purpose so I don't understand why would you want to pay more. It cleared up my counters, my cabinets and my oven where I had to store some of my larger pots I had no room for."

While the pan is hot, I take a little bit of Crisco Shortening (about a tablespoon) and drop it in the pan, using a pasty brush I spread the melted shortening over the full interior surface, then I take a paper towel and wipe out any excess (but not too dry you want it to have a slight sheen to it), then I rub the outside of the pan, including the handle, sides and bottom. If you do have a sticking when the pan has cooled add hot water only, allow to soak for about 15 minutes or so and clean as usual."
"But really, the proof in the quality of this cast iron was obvious when i made sweet potato corn bread and baked it in the oven in this skillet. I'm enclosing pictures, so you can see the nice way it cooked the corn bread on both the top and bottom of the bread."
"I love this skillet!"
"Perfect for egg muffin sandwiches, it's the right size and height after cooking compared to the "Mc" brand."
"To season the pan (yes, it is pre-seasoned, but...if you want the BEST non-stick pan...) just coat the pan with a light coating of cooking oil and put it in the oven (upside down) at 450 for 20 minutes. Then, turn the oven off and let the pan cool off. The best part is when a recipe requires cooking in a pan and then transferring the contents into bakeware, so it can be placed in the oven."

Find Best Price at Amazon"(Isn't it crazy how hard you need to shop for a simple water kettle? Solidly made: 1-piece body construction (i.e. except for spout) with no bottom seam to get messed up. Heats quickly: wide bottom is smart design. Think about it: Why would a manufacturer spend extra to polish the inside or add an insanely useless non-stick coating?? NOT a rigid handle: Mine moves with an easy push but also stays upright, as it should. Do you want a loose handle that will drop to the side of the pot and get hot while heating? (UPDATE JULY 2013) After using this pot for two years now, I must admit that the 'gurgle' or 'blub-blub' does sometimes happen, and it can be annoying. As the reviewer suggests, just pop the seal out and the problem is solved. As for the rest of my review, I stand by every word: the pot is still working great!"

"The stainless seems a little thin to me, but. after two years of solid performance, it must be the perfect balance of quick heating and durability."
"After I've poured the water and I want to close the spout I can't get enough leverage on the silicone pad underneath in order to close the spout so I flip the spout cover down with my finger. My previous rusty kettle had a lever on the handle and all I had to do was flip it up with my finger as I held the kettle by the handle."

Find Best Price at Amazon"It is large enough to sear several steaks at a time, giving them a beautiful flavorful crust. Eggs, pancakes, french toast, grilled cheese, bacon, stir fry, salmon, literally everything I have thrown at it has been cooked faster and with more flavor than a normal pan. I can heat the griddle as hot as I like, unlike teflon cookware which can damage the nonstick properties. Lodge claims that the griddle is already pre-seasoned, but the first time I tried cooking some sunny side up eggs I ended up with a burnt crusty omelet that stuck to the pan. Thus, I began my Google search for the best method to season a cast iron pan. This basically means that the fat content in the flax oil breaks down readily at high heat and forms a tough film that gives cast-iron its non-stick properties. Again you want to make sure you do not go over 400 degrees because then the oil begins to smoke too quickly and the process of forming the hard coat is rushed. You may also want to open your windows and turn on the fan, the oil is essentially burning into smoke which may irritate your eyes and lungs. After an hour, turn off your stove and let the pan come to room temperature or cool enough to handle. Contrary to popular belief, a well-seasoned cast iron pan will NOT lose its coat with soap."
"We just got a new stove and compared to the old el'cheapo model, the difference in output is astonishing. I laughed when I saw a IR image of heat distribution and the belly aching about it. Enough to hash-mark the pork loin I cooked last night. You could light one back burner on medium and I guarantee you that in a half hour, if you try to pick it up form the end furthest away form the heat source that you'll be severely burned. Use something that wont scratch and scrape it clean under warm running water while the griddle is still warm...Then place it back on the stove and reheat to remove all water."
"Anyways, I had a hard time deciding and checked out Lodge's website as they have detailed measurements in PDF form available. I couldn't find any decent comparison pictures so I decided to add my own so others can make a decision to suit thei needs. I use the Lodge silicone egg rings though, and they work well and you can fit a bunch on this product for easy cooking. Easy way to cook lots of bacon or making hot sandwiches or just about anything."

"Once it was done venting, it pressurized from 0 to 10 pounds in only five minutes and took a bit over 30 minutes to come back down once off the heat which really emphasized the fact that there are no leaks whatsoever. The entire time I processed, I only needed to set my burner setting to "2" and the canner stayed at pressure. If you're thinking of getting a pressure canner to also use as a boiling water bath, this one will work perfectly for half-pints."

"The lid has expanded an already large repetoire of cooking options for my beloved skillet and I accordingly recommend it to anyone who has a 12" cast iron skillet and who wants to do more than just fry and open bake with that."
"If you want to get the best performance out of your skillet, get a lid for it."
"Something to keep in mind is that the lid has to be treated the same way as a cast iron pan, for me that involves mostly inverting it over an open flame after use."
