Cooks Standard 12-Inch Ply Clad Stainless Steel Fry Pan with Dome Lid
Beautifully designed, the three-layer metal cookware features an interior and exterior layer of premium-grade 18/10 stainless steel with a multi-element alloy aluminum core (along the bottom and up the sides) for fast, even heating and thorough heat distribution. Even more, the brushed stainless-steel exterior resists scratches for long-lasting good looks, whether on the stovetop or hanging from a pot rack. The cookware’s solid stainless-steel handles come riveted for strength, offer an ergonomic shape for a comfortable grip, and feature air-flow technology to help them stay cooler to the touch than typical handles. Secure-fitting stainless-steel lids for the pots and steamer insert offer added convenience, working to trap in heat and moisture for efficient cooking and delicious results. The cookware can be used on all stovetop surfaces, including induction, and it withstands an oven’s heat up to 500 degrees F. When finished, the multi-ply clad stainless-steel cookware cleans up easily by hand or in the dishwasher, and it carries a limited lifetime warranty.
What is Multi-Ply Clad Metal Construction?
Beautifully crafted from durable stainless steel, this 10-piece cookware set from Cooks Standard not only offers stylish good looks, but it also provides exceptional cooking convenience. A thoughtful gift idea for anyone setting up a first-time kitchen, the collection supplies an array of everyday essentials.
Durable Stainless Steel with Even-Heating Aluminum Core
As part of Cooks Standard’s Multi-Ply Clad Stainless Steel cookware, the collection features three layers of clad metal for high-quality performance and excellent cooking results. The interior surface of the cookware provides a smooth, hard layer of premium-grade 18/10 stainless steel, while the stainless-steel exterior offers an elegant mirror-polished finish for enhanced visual appeal.
Best of all, an inner core of multi-element alloy aluminum comes sandwiched between the interior and exterior layer of stainless steel for faster heating and excellent heat distribution. The aluminum core extends from the bottom all the way up the side walls for total coverage. It’s the best of both–durable stainless steel for strength combined with the fast, thorough heating of aluminum.
Stay-Cool Handles with Air-Flow Technology
Thoughtfully designed, the cookware’s solid stainless-steel handles come riveted for strength and provide an open V-shaped design with air-flow technology that keeps the handle cooler and more comfortable to hold when cooking on the stovetop. The long handles on the pans and the generous loop side handles on the pots make the vessels easy to move around on the stovetop or to safely lift and carry, even when full. Though the handles stay cooler to the touch, pot holders or oven mitts are still recommended.
Other Highlights
The cookware’s matching stainless-steel lids fit securely, helping to trap in heat, moisture, and nutrients, plus they come with loop handles for safe, simple placement or removal. Another thoughtful detail includes the cookware’s scratch-resistant stainless-steel bases, which come with a brushed finish and that can be safely used on any type of stovetop, including gas, electric, ceramic glass, even induction. Oven-safe up to 500 degrees F, the cookware offers outstanding versatility, transitioning effortlessly from cooking on the stovetop to browning or finishing in the oven (not broiler safe).

Excellent pan at any price but amazing at this price. Very well made. See my video for details. I was very surprised at the quality of this pan in this price range. I am very picky about my pans and if they don’t sit absolutely flat on my cooktop, they go back. The first think I did when I unboxed it was to take it to the cooktop and set it down. Absolutely flat. I was impressed at the quality of the polish job on the exterior and the interior finish as well. I have a set of US made cookware that was very expensive and the quality of this…
Great product I read through reviews, weighing pros and cons. The pan I was replacing was at the end of a very long, hard life with me. Bottom line for me: I wasn’t looking for a treasure to adorn my kitchen. My priorities were: 1) fully clad for even heating, 2) has a lid and 3) for it to be an adequate size for flipping eggs and other cooking needs. It was annoying to me that other frying pans I compared it to did not a reasonable amount of cooking surface. The pan can be called a 12″ fry pan if…
