Customer Reviews for Cuisinart - Chef's Classic 3-Quart Saucepan - Stainless-Steel

This pot is terrible. The first one I received had a gap in the bottom where the seam is. Water collected there and bubbled out every time I used it. Customer service was pleasant to deal with and sent me a replacement. However, the new one has the same issue, just not quite as bad as the first. This is not at all what I would expect from a reputable brand and comparatively expensive pot. The handle is also horrible and is not at all comfortable to use. I would never purchase this again.

Response to inquiry on S/S Cuisinart saucepan

I had to buy this to replace my most-used 3 qt. S/S Cuisinart saucepan. I immediately noticed that the new pan is lighter weight & it seems much of the weight is the handle. .

Adequate - just not amazing as other products

Adequate. Bad handle design. Gets VERY hot because the handle isnt hollow. Older models were better and safer to handle. It isnt worth sending back, but disappointing,
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I've been using Cuisinart pots and pans for almost 20 years now. The quality is amazing, they are my "go to" pots and pans.
I would recommend this to a friend!

An excellent pan that holds heat well and warms evenly. I bought it for an induction cooktop (and it works well there), again heating evenly. I love the handle; the lid (as the instructions say) will hold very tightly if left on cooling food, so I make sure to crack it a bit and all is well.

Great pot. Lid handle gets a little hot, though. Like the measurements inside the pot

Not induction capable

I recently bought an induction range and was looking for a 3 quart saucepan. I was in a thrift store on found a Cuisinart model #7193-20. I had forgotten my magnet but searched and found this page which said it was induction capable. Imagine my surprise when I got home and found it was not magnetic and will not work on my range
To have the same model in both induction and non induction is just dumb
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We’re sorry for the confusion regarding the 7193-20 saucepan and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Some model numbers can vary by production run, and induction compatibility depends on a magnetic stainless-steel base, which can be quickly confirmed with a magnet test. We understand how frustrating this experience must have been and would be happy to review the specific piece with you to clarify compatibility.
