Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Cuisinart MCP-12 MultiClad Pro Stainless Steel 12-Piece Cookware Set
Customer Review: "HONESTLY," these are BETTER than All-Clad...SERIOUSLY!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had an All-Clad 4 Quart Saute Pan with lid and an All-Clad 13 inch skillet for quite some time...at least 15 months.
I like the 13 inch All-Clad skillet over the Cuisinart 12 inch skillet simply because the 13 inch is just the right size for me. I love the 4 Quart Saute Pan with lid from All-Clad for its size as well. I would not trade anything for them.
I've had a Calphalon non-stick 10 piece set for eleven (11) years. The non-stick surface peeling off some of the pieces was enough for me to throw them away and buy another set of cookware. I was convinced with two (2) pieces of All-Clad I got to get stainless cookware. However, I did not want the All-Clad price. So, I did a LOT of research into Tri-Ply stainless cookware.
I narrowed my search down to Calphalon Tri-Ply stainless and Cuisinart Multiclad Pro. I personally did not care for the GLASS lids on the Calphalon Tri-Ply. I don't want something fragile like glass to possibly break while cleaning it in the sink. So, I chose the Cuisinart Multiclad Pro. I chose the 12 piece set on Amazon without ever personally seeing the pans at all.
I was thrilled when they arrived. I noticed they were just as thick as my All-Clad pans ALL THE WAY UP THE SIDES. Did not have Tri-Ply only on the bottom. It was ALL THE WAY UP THE SIDES like All-Clad.
All-Clad has a polished exterior and brushed interior. Cuisinart Multi-Clad Pro is the opposite - brushed exterior with a polished interior. I've found the polished interior of the Cuisinart Multi-Clad Pro CLEANS EASIER than my All-Clad brushed interior pans. The LID handles on the Cuisinart are not as large as All-Clad's handles. However, the heat on the handles are about the same. The handles on the Cuisinart pan themselves are quite nice and feel good in my hands.
I will not buy non-stick pans again. I'm very pleased with stainless TRI-PLY ALL THE WAY UP THE SIDES. By the way...the rim of the Cuisinart Multi-Clad Pro are well rounded to allow for easier pouring than the All-Clad.
I HONESTLY believe the Cuisinart Multi-Clad Pro is a better Tri-Ply pan than All Clad in many respects, especially price. However, I do like the 13 inch All-Clad skillet over the Cuisinart Multi-Clad Pro 12 inch skillet BECAUSE OF THE EXTRA INCH - a bit more room for handling food in the pan.
The 12 piece set only comes with an 8 inch and 10 inch skillet. I bought All-Clad's 13 inch skillet separate from and BEFORE I bought the Cuisinart Multi-Clad Pro 12 piece set. Another reason I bought before is just to see if All-Clad was worth the hype. Yes, All Clad is worth the hype, BUT it is not worth the price on EVERY pan...only some pans...such as the 4 Quart Saute and the 13 inch skillet.
I hope this review was helpful.
