The Original and The Best!
Overall, a very high quality tool that works perfectly and with the right know-how is easy to clean (food stains- use sodium bicarbonate and water, hard water stains/rainbow stains- use white vinegar). Once you get used to the little bit of extra attention to detail in cleaning and preheating required- it becomes very much all part of the fun. I cannot speak for the D3 line, but this D5 pan retains heat extremely well and is very easy to control. You'd really have to be doing something wrong to burn anything in this pan. It puts the most beautiful crust on meat and fish and makes it easy to estimate when meat is cooked or ready to flip. Adding meat into the pan, initially it will stick- but after a few minutes, giving the pan a shake, it will release fully- essentially telling you when the food is ready to be flipped! Education is everything with these pans, and once you learn, they really do make you much more involved in the cooking process and aware of the underlying science of it. The 12 inch pan is the perfect size for up to 3 large steaks/chicken breasts, with high enough sides to create beautiful pan sauces with ease. The angle at which the sides meet the cooking surface make the pan perfect for tossing when sautéing, yet keeping space in the pan maximised. I like the design of the handle, but like others, I too have found it a little awkward to get a comfortable grip. It's best to try to use a palm-up grip. Once you do, it becomes very controllable and in my opinion, the way these handles were designed to be held. The brushed finish is very beautiful and will age better than the polished finish- likely turning satin after years of use. Be aware this is a heavy pan! To me, that means quality and durability and makes it feel all-the-more special to use, but others may struggle with the weight and the heat-controlability benefits of extra steel layer in the core may not be worth the weight. It comes in a large box that you won't want to throw away. Yes, it's expensive, but that's the cost of owning the best!

Once you get over the learning curve, these are extremely well built, versatile, high performing pans. Thus far have cooked a range of foods on this pan from eggs (no sticking issues) and steaks (perfect browning). Expensive cookware but you really do pay for what you get in this case.

Neither of the pans are easy to cook in. EVERY THING we COOK STICKS TO THE PANS!!!! Both or the pans need scrubbing ever time it's used. Turns out to be a lousy gift for my husband.

Hello Mufasa, We are very sorry to learn you are experiencing difficulties while using your cookware. To prevent foods from sticking to your stainless steel cookware, we recommend cooking on a medium to low heat setting. Allow your pan to fully preheat before adding foods. Additionally, we would recommend cooking with a form of fat such as butter or oil. Be sure to use enough fat to cover the entire cooking surface of your vessel. If you would like further assistance with this issue, please visit our Care and Use the page at https://www.all-clad.com/care-use. You may also contact our customer service team directly through our website at https://www.all-clad.com/contact or by phone at 1-800-255-2523.

Best Beautiful Frying Pan
Easy to care for but follow the instructions. Heat and cool slowly. I soak it before scrubbing and it still shines like the day I received it.
