What customers say
Customers highly praise the Cuisinart MultiClad Pro Sauce Pans for delivering professional performance and exceptional value.

Know before you buy
Yes, the MultiClad Pro is fully induction compatible. Its triple-ply construction includes a magnetic stainless steel exterior that works seamlessly with induction burners, as well as gas, electric, and ceramic cooktops.
No, the high-quality stainless steel cooking surface is non-reactive. It will not discolor or alter the flavor of your food, even when simmering acidic sauces or soups.
The solid stainless steel handle is designed to stay cool on the stovetop during normal cooking conditions. However, it can become hot if used in the oven or if the flame is high enough to lick up the sides of the pan.
Yes, this pan is dishwasher safe. While the dishwasher is convenient, hand washing with warm, soapy water is generally recommended to maintain the brushed stainless finish over the long term.
The triple-ply construction features an aluminum core sandwiched between two layers of stainless steel. This design provides the superior heat conductivity of aluminum while offering the durability and non-reactive benefits of stainless steel.
Yes, the lid is designed to be tight-fitting, which effectively locks in moisture and nutrients. This makes it an excellent choice for steaming vegetables or simmering liquids without losing volume to evaporation.
