I bought these pans for my husband for christmas and we are quite pleased with them. I looked at many different types and for the price and quality these are wonderful. You do have to read the instructions on cooking and cleaning stainless if you follow that you will love these pans.

I have owned the 10" skillet for years now and the pan looks just as good as when I got it. As long as you pre-heat the pan, as you should all cookware, and stray away from high heat, you wont have any issues with sticking or staining. It heats up nicely and retains it's heat well. Even if you burn something on the surface or exterior, a little Bar Keepers cleaning agent will bring it back to it's mirror shine. Of couse you can't directly compare it to the All-Clad counterpart, but for the huge difference in price, this is the best buy you can get if you care anything about the function of a pan. Unless you can afford All-Clad, Cuisinart is a great brand with all of there Chef's Classic Stainless products. They even rate in the top bunch in most of the Cooks Illustrated equipment reviews. Highly recommended.

This pan is for every day use, it's perfect for frying or scrambling a couple eggs or sauteing a good sized onion.
It's very sturdy and looks good. The lids to the 6 qt and 8 qt pots in this line (which I also love) fit perfectly on the 10" fry pan.
The handle truly does stay cool during normal stove top use.
It's important to use some kind of oil when cooking in this pan, if you want to avoid sticking. I personally have no problem using butter. (I use butter all the time in my cooking and no one in my family suffers weight problems, btw.)
Never use the highest heat setting when cooking on an electric stove (I can't speak for gas stoves).
As soon as you are finished using it, run a bit of water in the bottom of the pan and set it aside until you are ready to wash it. It cleans up great every time using a soft sponge. Even if you forget, run warm water in it when you do remember and maybe even set it on a warm stove top and leave it for 15 to 20 minutes, usually. I've never had a problem with it cleaning up using this method. As long as I wash with hot water, it comes clean with little pressure.
I'm sure this information is somewhere within other reviews here, but it's been over a year since I scoured them. :o) I wanted to focus solely on my personal experience over the past year.
If you don't use the highest heat and don't let it "cook" dry, it should give you faithful service.

I purchased this as my second pan purchase from the Cuisinart Chef Classic series. I have had both for about six months and could not be happier. I read all he reviews and was wondering is it going to stick, it it going to be hard to clean, ect and all I can say is this:
It cooks food evenly and as long as you rinse with water and a little dishsoap before it cools clean up is a breeze. For tough jobs let it soak, then sprinkle a little stainless steel cleanser.
A great quality pan for a good price!

I purchased the 8" pan about two years ago (from Macy's) and can little but great things about this little fryer. Our main use for the pan is to fry eggs and it does the job right. I think the biggest learning curve for us was to realize how much better butter worked than spray.
Clean up is usually a breeze - I just pour water into the pan while it's still hot and most of what's stuck practically jumps back off. I take a brush to the rest and, voila, it's clean.
What originally sold us on this pan was the fact that it stainless-steel and rather inexpensive (we thought, "expendable" if we had to eventually get rid of it). We had a set of Calphalon non-stick pans...but I did something to them to ensure the non-stick portion didn't stick anymore either (not worth going into here). All to say, if you have non stick, residue from cooking sprays will stick to the edges; it is a fact of non-stick life. With this pan, we knew we wouldn't have to worry about that. Plus, most of my cookware is stainless-steel, so we wanted something that we didn't have to worry about ruining.
Altogether, I don't think you can be this pan for less than $20. If we needed more frying pans, I'd feel confident in buying the whole set.
