Customer Reviews:
What I expect from All CladDecember 15, 2008 We got this pan in July (6 months before this review) and we've been using it more or less non-stop since then. It works very nicely on our ceramic, smooth-topped electric range and has held up through many rides in the dishwasher. Not a mark on the non-stick interior yet. The handle hasn't struck me as much, if at all, different than the many other All-Clad pots and pans that I've got.
The pan is a bit lighter than the 8 inch regular non-stick stainless skillet but holds its heat quite well. It was a good price versus the 8 inch skillet, too.
uneven bottomNovember 28, 2008 Had to return this pan because bottom was 1/8 inch higher in middle than edges - not good. Also had the same experience with 9 and 11 inch nonstick pans. I did get a 9 inch non-nonstick pan that had a perfectly flat bottom and I love it.
Non-stick doesn't hold upNovember 14, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
OK, I am a HUDGE fan of All Clad, but the two non-stick pans just have not held up. I would recommend all the wonderful regular stainless, and get a cheap non-stick pan that you plan to replace each year for things that really need a non-stick for.
Not Up to ParOctober 17, 2008 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This skillet is not ready for prime time and not up to par with other All-Clad skillets. It is very lightweight which makes it feel like a cheap bargain-basement purchase, not something that costs $60.00. The handle on this skillet is the worst I have ever seen. It is extremely uncomfortable to hold unlike other All-Clad handles. The upper edges are so thin they feel as if they could cut into the hand. The customer service rep at All-Clad told me all of their French skillets have the same handle so that means I will not be buying more.
