Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Cuisinart TPC14-18 MultiClad Pro Stainless 2-Quart Windsor Pan with LidCustomer Review: Excellent Pots From Cuisinart Summary: 5 Stars
I own virtually all of the MultiClad pieces, and have found each of them to be a terrific alternative to the more expensive All-Clad. This Windsor pan has excellent heating properties and comfortable handles. Balance is excellent, and makes using the pan a joy. I have found that the pans heat uniformly, and no hot spots form during cooking. The sloping sides make the job of whisking or vigorous stirring much easier. The brushed exterior doesn't show scratches, but the lid might if not taken care of properly. The vacuum seal formed during the cooking process is great for many types of food, and speaks to the perfect fit between the pot and the lid. Cleanup is very easy. Even sticky messes, such as melted caramel or pralines, clean up easily with a quick soak in hot soapy water. No need to use harsh abrasives! And for heaven's sake, don't use steel wool on these great pans. There's no need! Also, one should never place a HOT pan (of any type) into cold water, <DAMAGE WILL RESULT> so always makes sure that the pan (if still hot from use) is placed in *hot* water for soaking. Overall, I am very happy with this line of cookware. I did have a problem with a 12.5-inch MultiClad Braiser pan I ordered. The lid was ill-fitting (warped) when it arrived, and it has been sent to Cuisinart for a replacement. I don't know if this happened at the factory or during shipping. Time will tell if Cuisinart will back up the warranty. You can read my review of the MultiClad 12.5-inch Braiser Pan to find out. I will post that review (if) and when I get a replacement from Cuisinart.
Description of Cuisinart TPC14-18 MultiClad Pro Stainless 2-Quart Windsor Pan with LidDesigned for serious cooks, Cuisinart's MultiClad stainless pots and pans heat quickly and uniformly thanks to an aluminum core bonded between layers of 18/10 stainless steel. The core runs across the bottoms and all the way up the sides of the cookware to disperse heat evenly throughout food. The nonreactive interior layer is highly polished so it's naturally stick-resistant as well as resistant to discoloration and corrosion. A polished band just below each pan's rim handsomely accents the brushed exterior. In addition, a deep-set, tight-fitting, polished lid; a tapered rim for drip-free pouring; and a polished handle riveted for strength make this classic Windsor, with its flared sides and rounded bottom, ideal for whisking sauces thoroughly. Oven-safe to 500 degrees F, the pan measures 7-1/2 inches in diameter at the rim, 6 inches in diameter at the bottom, and 3-1/2 inches deep. Though it's dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended to maintain the pan's beauty throughout its lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack
