I bought this a month ago and just last night gave this wedding gift to the newly weds.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello Jodrich, giving the gift of All-Clad is a wonderful idea! Since our cookware is designed to last a lifetime, we are sure the happy couple with be able to cook lovely meals and create cherishable memories for many, many years.
Bought the set last month, researched a lot of different options before I bought. I wanted stainless steel because my hard anodized good quality set from a different brand eventually came off. First, they came super fast! I make my cookeware do heavy duty, I still have one decent pot, but my frying pans were done, and this set was exactly what I needed and came super fast. I love cooking with it, found it heated more evenly when frying, and burned waay less. The lid on the skillet fits so smooth. Was a little thrown off by how heavy it was, and had to change my grip on the handle, but the clean up from frying was a breeze. Amazing how good quality steel is better than non stick. My husband observed the frying pans are so well balanced and made, that when you hold them up after cleaning the water nicely circles right off. Beautiful and great investment.
I've owned All Clad for 27 years. Nothing like quality, durability. So when I decided to go with a magnetic cooktop, I had change out most of my All Clad. HARD! So, of course, I purchased all All Clad once again knowing it will last!
We have had All Clad for years at our home in Ohio and love the way they distribute the heat so there are no "hot and cold" areas. Our Florida condo has electric cooktop which is not like the gas range we are used to but these pans work very well. Would never have any other cookware and they are made in the USA!!!
I bought this pan 20 years ago it has become my favorite piece of cookware. When I cook this is the first pan I I pull out since it is large enough to accommodate whatever I'm cooking. Heat distribution is even, it's a pleasure to use.
