Know before you buy
Yes, the Cuisinart MultiClad Pro is fully compatible with all stovetops, including induction, thanks to its stainless steel construction.
The triple-ply design features a core of pure aluminum bonded to stainless steel, which allows for rapid, even heat distribution across the bottom and up the sides of the pot. This helps prevent hot spots that can cause food to scorch.
The pot features double-riveted stainless steel loop handles designed for a secure, ergonomic grip. While they are sturdy, they are made of metal, so you should use oven mitts when handling the pot while it is hot.
The included lid is made of solid stainless steel. This design is highly durable and helps trap heat and moisture effectively during long simmering sessions.
Yes, this stockpot is dishwasher safe. However, to maintain the brushed stainless steel finish and prevent potential water spots, hand washing with mild soap is often recommended by culinary experts.
Yes, the rim is specifically shaped to allow for clean, drip-free pouring, which helps keep your stovetop and countertops tidy when transferring stocks or soups.
