Overview
A family kitchen cooking several dishes at once gets saucepans, a saute pan, a stockpot, two skillets and a steamer insert in this Cuisinart set. Each piece has an aluminum encapsulated base under stainless steel, with riveted Cool Grip handles and glass lids on the covered pans.
Range is the reason to buy: one set handles pasta, steamed vegetables, sauces and searing, and it works on induction as well as gas and electric. The skillets arrive without covers, and the listing mixes up whether the third pan is a saucepan or a saute pan.
Who it's for
New households and cooks moving to induction get every everyday shape at once, from small saucepan to large stockpot. Cooks short on cabinet space, or who want nonstick frying surfaces, should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Works on induction, gas and electric
- Oven and broiler safe
- Dishwasher safe cleanup
- Glass lids fit tight to hold moisture
- Skillets have no lids
- Heavy set to store and lift
- Third pan named inconsistently in listing
Performance notes
The aluminum encapsulated base spreads burner heat across the pan bottom, which governs how evenly food browns and simmers. Tight-fitting glass lids hold moisture in, and the cast stainless handles are shaped to stay cool on the burner while rivets hold them firm.
