Copper Core 12-Inch Fry Pan

I have quite a few pieces of the copper core that I have had around 12 years. I needed to replace an old nonstick (not all clad) skillet due to peeling etc. I love my copper core so much that I got it as the replacement. Now all of my cookware is the copper core except for two lecruset dutch ovens.

I use this pan so much. It’s just perfect. I’m new to stainless steel cooking but the directions are key for a successful beginner. The reason I changed over is because we have been eating peeled-off teflon for too many years. I changed my cutting board to titanium and threw away the plastic and wooden ones.. I use a glass lid with my frying pan from an old set that fits it. Clean-up is amazing, hot water and a paper towel with dish soap does it. I do have the All-Clad stainless steel cleaner but rarely need to use it. My entire kitchen is either All-Clad or Kitchenaid (mixer). AND, I have been cooking new, Mediterrean recipes, spices from Mediterrean Dish, that are healthy and amazing. I chose to buy the 5-ply, copper pans. I can say that getting the 2 quart sauce pan has been impossible so far. I’m not sure why? Yes, I highly recommend!

We've only cooked on this maybe twice now, but are impressed overall. I first bought the very large/ largest copper core pan, and because we've loved that, I decided when I needed to replace a similar skillet (that had a non-stick type finish that was clearly pitted) with the same copper core from AllClad. My biggest complaint has to be the price, and the fact the set of 2 was not available when I did order this pan, otherwise I would have actually paid more to get the smaller skillet as well. There is a lot of "you get what you pay for" in these particular AllClad pans: 1. they are professional quality and essentially they will last a lifetime if properly hand-washed and maintained, 2. they are made in the USA, and any pans that aren't made in China (i.e. USA, Germany, France, or Italy) are quite expensive.
