Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of All-Clad Stainless 11-Inch French Skillet
Customer Review: Good Pan but could have been better
Summary: 4 Stars
I've been using this pan a lot since I bought it a few months back. I bought this pan as an alternative to my old All-clad 12-inch pan which is just too wide for my small stove top. Dimensionally, this 11-inch pan is just right.
While I thought the older 12-inch pan was an overall excellent product, this new pan falls a little short of 5 stars. Here's why: the thickness of the pan is thinner than the older pan (though some people will find this a plus if they thought the older pan was too heavy.) The thinness however may have contributed to All-Clad's decision to use a non-flared edge which makes the pan more difficult to clean. The edge is just too sharp. And for a saute pan with short side walls, you will need to clean the edge often. Also, since the edge is not flared out, pouring is more messy.
On the good side, the handle angle is more acute than older pan. This makes sauteing a little easier than the almost horizontal handle of the older pan. I also like the steeper walls which gives the bottom a large surface area. It also heats up evenly. And best of all it's cheaper than older pan!
Overall, I like this pan but they could made it better. However, knowing All-Clad, if they did, they would have priced it comparable to the older pans. Clearly and unfortunately, marketing entered in the design decisions.
Description of All-Clad Stainless 11-Inch French Skillet
With its sculpturesque form and patented bonded construction, the new All Clad 11-inch Stainless French Skillet blurs the line between art and science. A precisely-contoured heel and slightly deeper sidewall facilitate turning and flipping. Bonded layers of 18/10 stainless steel and aluminum provide ideal balance, handling weight, and supremely-even heat diffusion. Perfect for sauteing, frying, and general versatility, the All Clad French Skillet is the true culinary artist's latest inspiration.All-Clad's Stainless collection is the most popular of the renowned company's cookware lines. Exhibiting an impressive heft, each piece is meticulously crafted of three permanently bonded layers: 18/10 stainless steel on the interior, magnetic stainless steel on the exterior, and an encapsulated aluminum core for thorough, even heating. Hand-polished to a mirror shine, the stainless steel offers natural nonstick properties and striking good looks. The magnetic property means that in addition to suiting gas and electric burners, the cookware can be used on induction stovetops, increasingly popular for their energy efficiency. All of All-Clad's bonded cookware is made in the USA and is covered by a lifetime warranty.
Any chef can put a classic French skillet to good use, practically on a daily basis. Available in three sizes, 9, 11, and 13 inches, the Stainless skillet is designed with high sides that facilitate flipping pancakes, tossing stir-fried vegetables, or stirring stews. The solid, cast-stainless-steel handle is riveted on for strength, stays cool on the stovetop, and features a hole for hanging. Because the pan heats up quickly and hold its temperature well, only low to medium heat is recommended for cooking. While the All-Clad Stainless collection is durable enough for dishwasher cleaning, washing by hand is easy and will help preserve the bright finish. --Ann Bieri
