[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pans are must for every kitchen. The handles of the pans are comfortable, heat-resistant, making them easy to maneuver without burning your hand. The stainless steel provides excellent resistance to rust, staining and corrosion, ensuring a long lifespan when properly cared for. The multilayers promote even heat distribution which prevents hot spots.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pans are heavy! The handles didn’t get hot with stovetop use either which I enjoyed. The heat distribution was even and it was nice. It’s stainless steel so cleaning may be a challenge because it is not non stick, but I like these for searing or browning meats

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love these two pans from KitchenAid. They had such even distribution when I was cooking my food. I did not have to worry that one side was uneven. Cleaning the items was a breeze, and they are not too big to hand wash. They are sleek and have such a great design.

There is definitely a learning curve, but worth it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m in love with my new stainless steel pans! I love to cook so I was extremely excited to try out these new pans. I usually cook on non stick since they are easy to use but I’ve been wanting to give stainless steel a try; so this was the perfect opportunity. I’ll admit there is a learning curve to using these pans to make sure they make your food stick so preheating is a must and so is patience. Overall I enjoy these pans, once you get the hang of using them they are easy to use and not to mention much healthier than nonstick.

Great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far I really like these! Very good heat distribution, considering I have an older gas stove. They seem durable but are not overly heavy. A simple, sleek design that does the job without unnecessary frills. Easy to clean and store. I just wish they had lids.

The KitchenAid 3-Ply Base Stainless Steel Cookware
on December 18, 2024
Posted by: lamishac_166
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Durability
The pans feature a 3-ply base construction with stainless steel on the outside and an aluminum core for added strength and resistance to warping. This design ensures that the pans maintain their shape over time, even with frequent use. Users consistently praise the solid build quality, noting that it feels robust and long-lasting. However, care should be taken to avoid exposing the pans to rapid temperature changes, which could compromise their integrity.
Heat Distribution
One of the standout features of these pans is their ability to distribute heat evenly across the cooking surface. The aluminum core plays a key role in ensuring there are no hot spots, making it easier to achieve consistent cooking results. This feature is particularly beneficial for frying, sautéing, and searing, where precise temperature control is crucial.
Cleaning
These pans are dishwasher safe, which simplifies cleaning significantly. For those who prefer handwashing, the smooth stainless steel surface is easy to clean with warm water, mild soap, and a non-abrasive sponge. Food residue releases fairly easily, although using the correct heat and oil combination during cooking can help prevent sticking.
Versatility
The set includes two pans (8-inch and 9.5-inch), which are suitable for various cooking tasks, from frying eggs to searing meats. They are oven-safe up to 500°F, allowing seamless transitions from stovetop to oven for recipes requiring finishing or broiling. Additionally, their compatibility with induction, gas, electric, and ceramic cooktops adds to their versatility in any kitchen setup.
Design
The brushed stainless steel finish gives these pans a sleek, modern appearance that complements any kitchen aesthetic. The ergonomic handles are heat-resistant and comfortable to grip, enhancing safety and ease of use. However, the lack of included lids may be a drawback for those who frequently cook dishes requiring covered cooking.

Very nice 👍

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this pan to make tacos the other night and I have to say I’m VERY pleased with it, the meat cooked not only very well but very fast. I’m also a huge fan of the fact that because it’s stainless steel it will match pretty much everything in a kitchen 10/10!

Learning curve
on December 25, 2024
Posted by: lockhartka_1664
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the stainless steel look of these pans. They look classic and like they will last forever. I am still getting used to how to cook in them. I have been having some trouble with food sticking to the bottom even with using an oil. I think there is a learning curve and once I figure out the heat level needed and the distribution it will be great! These pans are definitely hefty and will be a great addition to our kitchen!
