Cuisinart’s Chef’s Classic stainless cookware is high quality, yet affordable. Unlike many lines of cookware, this can go in the dishwasher for clean up, yet the aluminum core within the base provides even and efficient heating. Any cook would be happy to have this nicely crafted pan on hand for sauteing and frying. The stainless steel interior is non-reactive with food and it’s also tough enough to withstand the use of metal utensils. True browning is very difficult with non-stick interiors, so many chefs insist on using a traditional pan such as this. The large 12″ size is ideal for cooking pancakes, chicken breasts, pork chops and more.

SS Pot that Rusts? Writing this review before I contact Cuisinart to invoke the “lifetime warrantee”.Since I am still alive I may have a case. The pot is a year old and there is rust all around the interior rivets holding the handles. How a manufacturer van make a pot and handles out of stainless steel and use a rivet with a lesser grade of SS is I am sure not a design flaw but a part substitution.The pot is not stained outside and is never put in a dishwasher. It looks like water entrapment between…
