Cuisinart MCP44-24N MultiClad Pro 6-Quart Skillet, Saucepot w/Cover

It looks to be of good quality, it's heavy. It is a gift for Christmas, I will not be using it.

Quality cookware

I am updating this review a month later. I have been treating the mirror finish like it was non-stick. It is so highly polished that nothing sticks. Great value. You won't be sorry. I like this pot. It is superior in many respects to my collection of the original All-Clad (stainless steel over anodized aluminum). What you need to know: * Unlike lower priced models, the layering goes all the way up the sides. an important feature. * Unlike higher priced models it does not have a layer of copper. * The handles (sides and lid) stay reasonably cool. No potholders required. * The lid is tighter fitting than it appears to be. * Maintaining the mirror finish on the interior requires treating it like Teflon. However, scratches would have no effect on performance. I measure performance by heat retention and heat distribution. Over the last few days I have made mussels meuniere and chili. I was very pleased. The pot is easy to clean without steel wool. If anything does stick (thus far it has not), you can boil it away with some detergent added to the water. That bluish haze that you sometimes get on stainless is easily removed with vinegar.

Really wish this pot had been included in the set I purchased originally instead of the 8qt . . . However, this has been a perfect addition and gets used regularly so it was absolutely worth the hefty price tag. I did get it on sale with helped a little.

I bought the Cuisinart Stainless 6 qt pot for several reasons: 1) I preferred something lighter than our heavy, enameled cast-iron Dutch oven that can be unwieldy; 2) was easy to clean; 3) heats up quickly, especially for cooking pasta; 4) could be used on stove top and oven,and intensive and, 5) easy to clean. After 3 months of various uses, it has met or exceeded all the desireable qualities we were looking for The large, flat "ears" allow for a good grip to increase the safety of a hot container and the flat rim makes an even, steady pour of liquid contents. We have not observed any rust spots or discoloration. I also like that the handle on the lid is high enough to get under it easily with a glove or fingers. As an aging cook with decreasing strength, I find this item being used more frequently with great pleasure and short of making meat or vegetable stocks for canning, it is just the right size. It is a welcome addition to the kitchen.

This is a good quality stainless steel saucepan that heats evenly. It's thick, sturdy and well-made. The design is simple yet elegant, with tapered rims that not just look good but also act as a pouring lip. The handles are riveted at a certain angle that helps when lifting the saucepan. They stay cool and are flat rather than round-ish which one may or may not find comfortable. Making sure the handles feel comfortable is important because the saucepan is relatively heavy. This is especially true if you often lift the saucepan off the stovetop when cooking. I have been using it for a few months now and I have no complaints other than that the lid could have been a bit more tighter. Also, the insides have developed a few hard water stains but they can be cleaned easily. At the given price, the saucepan is a good value for money.

To my set of these pans.... I have a set mauviel pots and pans, these are equal quality and cook just as well. Clean up is a breeze and you can condition the skillets to be non stick so you can fry eggs in them. Big plus is don't have to clean the copper... I have gotten a bit lazy in my old age. The weight is equal to the mauviels. I started on these with a Flea market find about 10 years ago that was impressive to cook with.... now I have almost complete set, the copper pots are decoration on the wall now I even use them in my kamado Joe smoker... little more cleanup but comes back to looking brand new. AND they have a lifetime warranty!!!

Great pan

Excelente producto para quien le guste cocinar a consciencia.

Yes they are made in China but Very good quality was surprised!! Nice thick heavy pots. Handles riveted on. True induction pots not only heating the bottom but heat goes right up sides of pots as well but handles do not get hot. Metal lids fit well. Glad I did not spend 3 or 4 times as much for other name brands!!

I wanted a pot with a stainless steel lid; I got a pot with a stainless steel lid. I wanted a pot with stirup handles; I got a pot with stirup handles. I ordered a 6 quart pot that would weigh less than a 10 quart pot; I got a 10 quart pot. That said, this is a very nice pot with a very flat and efficient bottom. It is so efficient that it burns at the lowest setting on an electric range. A better application might be a gas burner. tt

I debated between french classic or multi-clad with the pouring lip. I chose the multi-clad and my first use was cooking pasta which left chunks of metal seemingly to be eroded away, and you can feel the ridge. Not impressed, as my cheaper cookware never did this!

I think the pot would be great for stews.. but I bought it for frying eggrolls. I wanted a kitchen aide but it’s hard to find separately without the set so I wanted to try this one. Unfortunately it does not compare to the kitchenaide one we’re using. The handles get unbelievably HOT! Under the pot is hard to clean. And I’ve only used the product once and made the inside of the pot turn brown. And can’t even get it out! For the price I paid was definitely not worth it for what I needed it for. Like I said I’m sure it’s good for other things maybe boiling soup or whatnot. But if you’re looking to use it to fry.. I definitely DO NOT RECOMMEND.
