All-Clad d3 / TriPly 8 Piece Cookware Set

Versatile stainless steel pans that heat quickly and evenly (no hot spots!), with three layers of high-quality metal all around the pan and comfortable handles. They can go in the oven and are induction-compatible. —DETAILS— All-Clad pioneered multi-ply cookware in the 1970s with the d3 (also called TriPly) series, when they layered aluminiumDan excellent conductor of heatDwith stainless steel, which is excellent at being non-reactive, oven-safe, induction hob-compatible, and extremely durable. These pans feel light to lift but are sturdy and warp-resistant, with comfortable handles that mould to an underhanded grip and stay cool on the hob. The stainless steel is polished on the outside for a mirror finish and brushed on the inside. (Dishwasher use is not recommended.) The frying pans and saute pan have curved rims for drip-free pouring.
