Anolon Ultra Clad Stainless Steel 12" Covered Deep Skillet



Not as good as expected
I was looking for months at cookware. Been to many stores (W&S, Sur La Table, etc). I knew I wanted fully clad cookware. My options came down to All Clad, Henkels, and some others. However, what I really needed was just a deep skillet, and I could find only 2, a Caphalon non-stick, and this Anolon. I chose the Anolon because it was clad stainless steel.

One thing I really like about this pan is the handle. Very comfortable curve and silicone grip. The domed top also is convenient.

However, the black ribbon on the outside, while kinda cool looking, I think Anolon just put it there to save money on the stainless steel.

The pan was not as heavy as I thought it would be, at least compared to a similarly sized/spec'd All Clad pan. What this tells me is that the aluminum core is very thin. Which is obvious if you compare it to an actual All Clad pan. The All Clad (I'm talking Stainless or LTD) is much thicker and heftier. Now, all this could be...

Heavy yes, cooks evenly yes, pricey yes, quality very good, clean up easy, would I purchase again? Absolutely! Amazon has not let me down in over 2 years including a easy return policy.
Short review but honest.
