Know before you buy
The 5-ply construction sandwiches a copper core between layers of stainless steel, providing the rapid heat conductivity of copper with the durability and non-reactive surface of steel. This design eliminates hot spots and ensures even heat distribution across the entire pan.
Yes, the All-Clad Copper Core Saute Pan is fully compatible with all cooktops, including induction, gas, and electric, thanks to its magnetic stainless steel exterior.
This pan is oven and broiler safe up to 600°F, allowing you to easily transition from searing on the stovetop to finishing dishes in the oven.
The high-quality stainless steel interior is durable and non-reactive, meaning it won't impart metallic flavors to your food. While it is dishwasher safe, we recommend hand washing with a stainless steel cleaner to maintain its luster and prevent discoloration over time.
The straight-sided design is specifically engineered to contain liquids and minimize splattering, making it the ideal shape for braising, deglazing, and preparing sauces.
The pan features contoured, riveted handles designed for a secure and comfortable grip. Because they are riveted, they provide long-term stability and strength, even when the pan is loaded with heavy ingredients.
