>And don't expect it to be non stick
To add to this, one of the benefits of SS is that it /does/ stick, it's literally "its a bug not a feature." You want a pan sauce? You get sticking, which lets you get a fond you can deglaze.
Food will burn
Your fire alarm will go off trying to heat oil hot enough to make food not burn
Can't cook eggs
Can't cook steak
Can't cook chicken
Cannot cook fish
Yeah great purchase
Dont listen to this retard, except for fish and eggs, he's right about that. Steak is fine, but its better in a heavier pan with higher heat retention and chicken, see my response above. But then again, he's an idiot if he only has one type of pan in his kitchen, SS, cast iron/enameled CI, nonstick, etc all have a place in the kitchen.
Absolutely, to a degree. I got a 3-ply Calphalon years ago when I moved out and it's just as good as my 3-ply All Clad, but clearly not as good as the 5-ply stuff I have. Also don't pay retail prices, this website has sales constantly. Get the "package damaged" stuff and not the "item damaged" stuff though. I have a 12 inch pan, 1.5 and 3qt pot. I'm probably going to get a 5.5/6 qt sautee pan or one of those "everyday/essential" pans too
They are at the point in their corporate lifecycle where they are charging for the name--not the quality. There are better alternatives:
American Heritage
Made In
even Tramontina has comparable quality with All Clad these days.
not a bad option. My Tramontana lasted over 20 years before warping made it time to retire.
I wouldn't buy All Clad anymore--it's just another dead brand getting by on the name.

I got fish and eggs to work, but it takes more skill than a nonstick. Also more oil. Your stovetop is just as if not more important than your pan - do NOT use a shitty resistive electric range in a run-down apartment with a pan like this, the heat distribution is too uneven to work. Cast Iron is at least thermally massive enough to absorb the differences in these conditions.
If you live in the USA it totally makes sense to buy All-Clad. They're very high quality and not that expensive, all things considered.
If you live in Europe it's not worth it. You might want to buy Demeyere at that point, since the price is close.
No. Get this instead.

No rivet, 5-ply, non-retard handle and smoother surface. Or if you're a richfag then get the Proline.
you might want to considered the Multiline series too.
it's 7-ply like the Proline series, while not being so fucking heavy.
It's just slightly heavier than Industry.
Yes.
No.
Yes but get them on a sale. And don't expect it to be non stick

How many african immigrants do you think she's sucked and fucked by now?
Not enough
I have more Le Creuset and will choose that over SS every time unless I want to make a pan sauce but keep going famalam

All Clad outsources to china.
only the non-stick lines are made in China.
stainless steel All-Clad cookware is still manufactured in the USA.
No. Get this instead.
