Editorial Review:
Don't let your food stick it to you. This 12" everyday pan with a brilliant mirror-polished exterior features a Quantanium? nonstick surface, reinforced with titanium to ensure lasting food release and easy, hassle-free cleanup. An aluminum encapsulated base heats quickly and evenly, cooking food to perfection. Limited lifetime warranty.
Enhance your existing Chef's Classic set with this versatile, 12-inch everyday pan, or give it as a gift to someone whose kitchen space is limited. You can cook practically anything in this superb specialty piece. Simmer soup, fry chicken, stir-fry vegetables, cook pancakes, and even bake casseroles. The two loop-style, riveted stainless-steel handles make the shape more compact for fitting in an oven, and the domed glass lid conveniently lets you monitor what's cooking. Chef's Classic cookware handsomely serves at the table, too.
Cuisinart constructs this pan of hard-anodized aluminum, which is even stronger than stainless steel, with an encapsulated pure aluminum core for quick, even heating. The interior features Cuisinart's Quantanium nonstick finish, a high-quality, long-lasting finish internally reinforced with titanium. Little oil or butter is needed when cooking on this ultra-smooth surface, and low to medium heat is recommended, along with non-metal utensils. The piece is oven-safe to 500 degrees F and should be washed only by hand. Cuisinart covers this pan with a lifetime limited warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri

Pan:
I have used this pan often since purchasing it. I even allow my teenage child to cook in it. I have burned food in the pan but it is still doing fine....the food didn't make it.
*~Great Pan & Great Price!*~ Mabuhay:):
Hi Everyone. I received this just yesterday with Amazon's Prime Membership Trial. You get FREE 2 day deliveries for 30 days. Anyhow, I purchased this pan in addition to my adonized set, stainless steel set & my recently purchased stainless steel non stick set. I wanted an extra large pan to replace a ginormous Cuisinart pan I purchased from Dillards a couple years ago.(I would have had the pan for a few more years more than likely if it hadn't been for the "genius" guest of a family member visiting who... more info
Best value pan:
I've owned the Cuisinart nonstick everyday pan for almost 2 years (bought it in February 2007), and it quickly became my go-to pan for virtually anything I saute, fry, or braise. I have a repetoire of braised chicken dishes and this pan accommodates a whole cut-up 3 to 4 lb chicken with no problem. It browns foods beautifully, as when I prepare chicken for braising or make chicken cutlets and breaded fish fillets. I use it to create myriad pasta sauces, as the wide 12-inch pan helps evaporate liquid fast... more info
