Amazon.com ReviewGleaming with Old-World elegance, All-Clad's Cop-R-Chef copper-clad cookware dresses up a kitchen while providing serious and professional cooks with all the virtues that make All-Clad's worldwide reputation unsurpassed. Key to its high performance is a three-ply, bonded construction. Sandwiched between the bright copper exterior and an 18/10 stainless-steel interior lies a thick core of pure aluminum that spreads heat evenly across the bottoms of pots and pans and all the way up the sides. The interior is highly polished so it's stick- as well as corrosion-resistant. With care, the copper exterior will remain beautiful during this cookware's lifetime warranty against defects--and beyond.
This beautiful oval au gratin pan illustrates how thoroughly Cop-R-Chef marries form and function. It's 12 inches long, 2 inches deep, and perfect for baking cherry cobbler, roasting quail, or browning cheese sauce on asparagus and then serving it at the table. Its polished 18/10 stainless-steel handles are riveted to the pan for strength and stay cool on the stovetop but won't be harmed by an oven's highest heat. Because harsh detergents darken copper, hand washing this cookware is recommended. --Fred Brack
