Le Creuset Tri-Ply Stainless Steel cookware features a commercial grade triple-layer construction -- a full aluminum core sandwiched between two layers of premium-quality stainless steel. The heat-responsive aluminum core extends up the sides of the pan to provide even heat distribution and to eliminate scorching and hot spots. A magnetized stainless steel exterior ensures compatibility with all cooktops, including induction. Please note that the Stainless Steel teakettle is not compatible with induction cooktops. Uncoated cookware is oven-proof to 425 degrees F / 220 degrees C. Every piece of cookware is manually inspected several times during manufacture to ensure the strictest quality standards are maintained.

Before first use -- Uncoated Remove all packaging and labels. Wash the pan in hot, soapy water, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Your pan is now ready to be used and does not require any further preparation. When frying in an uncoated pan, season the food only after searing on the hot surface. Turn food only when the surface has seared and is easily released. Reduce the temperature after searing. Before first use -- Nonstick Before using for the first time it is beneficial to condition the nonstick surface. Rub a film of cooking oil over the surface. Heat the pan for two minutes over a medium setting, then cook and rinse with hot water. Dry thoroughly. When frying in a nonstick-coated pan for the first time, or after the pan has been cleaned in the dishwasher, prepare the pan as follows: 1. Add enough oil to cover the base of the pan. 2. Heat the oil gently and turn the pan to cover the side walls. 3. Remove the pan from the heat, let it cool, and clean it with a paper towel. 4. Add some more oil, fat or butter, and begin cooking as normal. 5. Season the food only after searing on the hot surface. 6. Turn food only when the surface has seared and it easily released. 7. Reduce the temperature after searing. Every piece of cookware is manually inspected several times during manufacture to ensure the strictest quality standards are maintained.

Great pan for a great price.
Jan 25 2012
By DiaperDad
- Published on Amazon.com
I've had a handful of pieces of LeCreuset Stainless Steel Cookware for about two months, cooking roughly 19 meals per week. They're all great performers and very attractive. This line is basically All-Clad Stainless for 30% less. They are made in China, which is a sticking point for some people, but I am convinced that quality has not suffered. It's simply an incredible pan for a better price. Other reviews state that this line approaches or equals All-Clad Stainless, and surpasses Calphalon Stainless.
These pans are fully clad, meaning the aluminum core extends up the sides; it's not only in the bottom. They are incredibly responsive on my gas stovetop. I actually thought they were too fast when I first got them, but now it's just another quality I appreciate. They heat quickly and extremely evenly. You often use a lower heat to achieve the same results.
The handles are comfortable, a good length, and rarely get too hot (obviously, they get hot during oven use). They are made to fit through the handles of the lids, which is a convenient storing option. And incidentally, the lids are great, since they're stainless, too, instead of glass. This means no crud build-up around the edge, and they seal great. The same lids work on both of the saucepans I have.
It has an excellent lifetime warranty. Thankfully I haven't had to use that, but I did use it with a Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 15-3/4-Inch Oval Fish Skillet, Flame, and was very pleased. (It was a lengthy process at nearly a month, but given that I got a brand new replacement for a $200 pan that was 4 years old, it seemed quite generous.)
These pans are a little taller and narrower than most other brands' saucepans. This helps when boiling something long, like asparagus. The bottoms are curved just right, so whisks and utensils fit in easily, allowing you to stir thoroughly and clean easily. The rolled edge truly does make pours a no-drip affair. The pan is balanced and light, but with enough heft to feel substantial and well-made. I haven't mde much use of the measurement internal markings, but people who like those find them very convenient.
Quality cookware like this makes a big difference if you cook frequently. It gets to temperature faster, heats evenly without burning in spots, recovers quicker and keeps its temperature easier. Since it handles well, it's more pleasant to cook with, moving easily around the kitchen, and holding still on the cooktop.
It cleans easily. I use regular dish soap most of the time. Bon Ami 04030 Bon Ami Cleaning Cake and Powder, 12-Ounce is my regular scouring powder, though Bar Keepers Friend® Cleanser & Polish: 12 OZ leaves the pan with a little extra sparkle (powder only, I Strongly dislike the liquid), which is nice since these pans are so pretty. Le Creuset makes a Le Creuset 12-Ounce Stainless Steel Cleaner, but I haven't yet tried it.
I love the LC Stainless cookware I have, and am looking forward to getting a little more.

Quality that will last a lifetime!
Jan 2 2012

Is this pan heavy? Yes, just like any high quality piece of cookware. That is why it has a helper handle. The long handle is very ergonomic, especially compared to All-Clad. We added this to our collection of high end cookware about six months ago and have not been disappointed. It has a great rolled rim for pouring, the handles stay cool, and it has measurement markings on the inside of the pan. I have owned All-Clad in the past and I think this is a better design, and better quality for less money. And be sure to check out the steamer basket insert, the single best tool I have ever used for steaming vegetables, hands down.

Great pots can't wait to upgrade my skillets

I've had this pot for around 6 months now and like it quite a bit. It heats up extremely quick and is great to cook with. The lip that these pots have is a god-send if you're like me and tend to strain or pour items out of your pots and then return to the heater. There's no over-spill or trickling down the side of the pot. They really work!
The lifetime warranty on these pots allows you to wash them in the dishwasher which is great. I have only had discoloring on the inner-bottom portion of my pots but this is expected when cooking with pots that have stainless steel exposed. Scouring with Bar Keepers Friend will remove this but is unnecessary.
I had wanted to upgrade to pots that I felt I would keep for a long time. I initially had bought a set of Calphalon hard anodized aluminum pots based on the discount on Amazon as well as the reviews. I found the pots excessively tedious to clean and were not very uniform with heating. These pots on the other hand are fantastic and I believe I have found the perfect set for myself. I'm going to upgrade my skillets once the coating on my Calphalon skillets give out and am greatly looking forward to the lip that is on the pans as well. This is a must buy for someone that wants pots similar to All-Clad but are wary of the All-Clad price tag. I've gone through 4 various sets of pots from moving and not wanting to take them along but if I end up with another cross-country move these pots will be going with me.
