Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Cuisinart MCP55-30 MultiClad Pro Stainless 5-1/2-Quart Casserole with CoverCustomer Review: great addition to the set, or alone Summary: 5 Stars
After a lot of research, I recently purchased the set of 12 Multiclad Pro, plus the other saucepan, the 6-qt pot, and this 5-1/2 qt casserole. This was the first item I actually used! I was able to use this large deep casserole pan to make chicken marsala (first time) for our family, on the stove, without having to sautee the chicken in small batches. Turned out great, and had fun,too! I included this item in my purchase because of a review that stated that the LID FITS THE LARGE SKILLET from the 12-pc set -- very, very, handy. Cleaning is no trouble at all if you do as advised; fill w warm soapy water and just let it rest. Bought the Barkeepers Friend, too, but haven't needed it yet (they're pots, no need to be too picky!). I intend to purchase the remaining pieces. They are very high quality, and a good value. Free shipping and speedy delivery were a bonus. Nothing negative to say, at all! My husband is happy, because I have taken an interest in cooking again, and am willing to try new recipes (I don't particularily enjoy cooking, after doing it for 30+ years...)!
UPDATE Nov '10:
I still absolutely love the MCP line of cookware, and highly recommend every piece! Still nothing negative to say.
I ordered all of my cookware (the 12-pc set, plus several add-ons) at the same time, and just realized today (when I went online to order the last two items) that the lid I mentioned in this review does indeed fit their largEST skillet (12" Skillet/frypan With Helper Handle), but THAT skillet is actually NOT included in the 12-piece set, like I mentioned above... Ooops! I enjoy every piece, and DO often use this lid to cover the (lidless) 12" skillet...which I...purchased...separately.
Note on clean-up: I have only needed to use the BarKeepers Friend once in over four months! (Even then, it was due to MY mistake -- I lightly oiled the 10" skillet, covered it, and left it preheating until I remembered it 20 minutes later! The olive oil had turned a sticky golden color that did not come off with normal cleaning. BarKeepers Friend and a plastic scrubbie took care of it though.)
