Le Creuset Tri-Ply Stainless Steel 4-Quart Covered Saucepan

Great saucepan. I wish it cost less., (What's this?) Of the saucepans I recently purchased for a new induction stove, this one seems to give consistently the best performance. It also does not gradually form a white film on the inside surface of the pan, like much of the other new stainless cookware I have tried.

I believe this pan is an excellent saucepan in all respects, except for the high price.

As part of Le Creuset's Tri-Ply Stainless Steel line, the cookware features a full aluminum core sandwiched between two layers of premium-quality stainless steel--from base to rim--for fast, even, all-around heat, eliminating hot spots and ensuring thorough browning and cooking. Its energy-efficient design also means there's no need to cook on high heat settings; medium and low heat work best for most cooking tasks. The pan's long ergonomic handle (with a hole at the end for hanging) and opposite helper handle guarantee a comfortable, steady grip even when wearing oven mitts, and they come securely attached to the pan with stainless-steel rivets for added strength. The unit's tight-fitting stainless-steel lid, which sports a matching handle, helps trap in heat, moisture, and nutrients. Oven-proof to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), the pan can be used in any type of conventional oven, and its special magnetic steel construction makes it suitable for use on all cooking surfaces, including induction stovetops. With its fingerprint-resistant brushed steel exterior, the sleek-looking pan cleans up easily by hand or in the dishwasher and carries a limited lifetime warranty. In Le Creuset's classic chef-inspired shape, this large covered saucepan offers maximum versatility and performance in a larger capacity, holding up to 4 quarts and measuring approximately 7-1/2 inches in diameter by 5 inches deep. Use it for anything from making lentil soup and boiling potatoes to cooking brown rice, spaghetti noodles, and more. The thoughtfully designed pan comes equipped with capacity marks on the inside wall for convenient measuring, and its rim provides a uniquely shaped pouring lip to prevent drips and spills, working equally well for left- and right-handed pouring.
