EXCELLENT Quality! It is a very sound decision. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I waited about 2 months after receiving this product to leave a review to make certain that I would not be sorry for my review.I was actually QUITE surprised when I received my order at the quality of the product. It is exceptional. I only cook and stainless steel (but use a porcelain coated cast iron dutch oven for baking breads).My smallest stainless steel saucepan is too big for casual one person use so I went on the hunt to find a reasonably small stainless steel pan with a pourer on it. I found this one and ordered it with some minor trepidation as I have purchase product, from extremely highly rated brands that have been unacceptable to my standards. I was thrilled when I got the product but I wanted to wait a couple of months to make certain that it actually stood up before I made a review about it.This is an exceptionally high quality stainless steel pan. It has been through its paces and, you can see in the video, I did not polish it for the video though I easily could but I use it every single day so I didn't take the time to polish it as I might an item that I might only use once a week or so.The great things about it are as follows:✓ It is 18/10 304 tri-ply stainless steel and what that means to you is that you are getting a very high quality, even heating, non-poison leaching product that will stand up to abuse in the kitchen and still clean well and look beautiful for years to come;✓ You can choose right or left pour. If you are right handed purchase the right handed pour, if left-handed, obviously left-handed. The reason for that is, as you can see in my video, the orientation of the handle of the pan for when you pour things like hot chocolate, gravy, soup or what have you. The pour will be efficient and not drip all over the place.✓ While I prefer stainless steel lids for the majority of my cooking appliances, I feel that the glass lid that is provided is ideal because it is a small pan and you really want to keep a good eye on what you are cooking. In this case, glass is preferable to stainless steel for a top. It also has a tiny vent hole which proves beneficial to prevent boil over.✓ A lot of people say that stainless steel is difficult to clean. It is the easiest cookware thing on the planet to clean if you know how to. I just use Dawn and then dry very thoroughly (it is important to dry your pan after washing it). I OFTEN brown things in my pans to create fonds to make gravies/sauces with. Usually the wine or other liquid that you toss in to the scorchingly hot fond pulls the bits up from the floor of the pan but not always. This would be a complete nightmare in any other kind of a pan but in a stainless steel pan, not only do you create a beautiful sauce or gravy but you have super simple cleanup. The burnt on bits might look like a nightmare if you are not used to stainless steel but there's a very simple solution. Wash your pan with Dawn, rinse and dry it so that you can see any stain or residue that might remain. Sprinkle a tiny little bit of Cameo into the bottom and make a paste and scrub it with a stainless steel scrubber (the items I use are in my video). Not even 10 seconds and you're golden (silver, actually 😉). Excessive heat can cause them to turn purply/green on the inside. No big deal at all. Pour tiny little bit of white vinegar in and swish it around. Your pan will be like new.✓ The pan features a very comfortable stay cool handle so you do not have to worry about burning yourself when cooking and the handle is very comfortable so you can feel secure in pouring with the pan. If, for any reason, you put it into the oven, common sense says to use a silicone glove or a potholder on the handle but for stovetop use it is a stay cool handle.The bottom line is that this is an excellent quality product that I am very grateful that I chose to purchase. YES, I DO dare to say that it is far superior to some of those fancy names that are very heavily promoted on some cooking shows that cost ridiculous amounts of money. This is not only superior to those brands (I have tried them all as I am into elevated cooking) but it is extremely cost efficient ESPECIALLY considering the fact that you will have it for the rest of your life and your children will probably have it after that.Purchasing this product is a very sound decision 👩🍳
