"You have to know what you're doing" 2010-07-21
By montana_nick (Boise, ID)
I own the 10-piece Pro-Clad set, and the 12-inch pan. It took me a couple of weeks to learn how to use these pans. At first, everything was sticking, and cleanup was a hassle. But, I didn't give up, and read up on how to properly cook with stainless steel pans. When the directions tell you to cook at a lower temperature, pay attention! that turns out to be the key - properly managing the temperature. It turned out that even though I *thought* I was cooking at a lower temp, I really needed to drop the temp even more; about 20-30% lower than I was using for my older anodized aluminum non-stick cookware. Once I figured that out, I've had no problems. I cook fried eggs, scrambled eggs and even omelettes in these pans, using nothing more than some cook spray. When used correctly, these pans are very easy to clean up, too. Most of the time, a wash cloth or dish sponge is all I need. Sometimes, I need to break out the Bar Keepers Friend Cookware Cleaner. After a few months, these pans still shine. Other positives, they heat evenly, and react quickly to changes in heat (I have a gas stove).
"I'll take Revere Ware" 2010-06-23
By Hilary Clair
I just purchased the 8 inch version of the Emeril Pro-Clad pan, and it has me thinking that it actually is using aluminum as the surface of the pan, with stainless for the handle and exterior sides of the pan. The texture of the interior cooking surface of the pan is not smooth as it is in Revere Ware, but rough like the bottom of the pan, which I assume is aluminum. This makes for an attractive pan, but an extremely problematic cooking surface. Everything seems to stick to it, and it is a royal pain to clean. I never have the same degree of sticking problems with my old venerable Revere Ware. And the major reason I buy stainless steel cookware is for the widely-reported non-toxity of the surface. The safety of cooking with an aluminum surface has been called into question may times. And teflon has been proven to scrape off and end up in our digestive tracts - possibly contributing as a carcinogen. Why should one take such chances, when stainless is widely available and in a similar price range? The designers of this line appear to have produced an attractive, but troublesome set. I have never seen stainless steel with a matte surface, as is the case with this pan, but, even if it IS stainless on the cooking surface, why would they create such a design knowing that food was going to stick to it much more than a shiny stainless surface? I won't be buying any more of these pans.
"Good Pan" 2010-05-11

Unless you have a sponsored cooking show and get All-Clad cookware for free, there is hardly any reason to pay the higher price for one with stuff like Emeril's Pro-Clad, or Cuisinart's Multi-Clad Pro line around. For the amateur cooking enthusiast, this thing will do everything the regular All-Clad will do. This pan cooks and cleans well, giving a great sear to meat and veggies on lower heat settings. The handle is way more comfortable than the All-Clad, which is strange since All-Clad makes the Emeril Pro-Clad - you'd think the more expensive, original "better" pan would have the better handle, but that's just a part of what makes this such a joy to buy, especially when I nabbed it off Amazon at half price (making it a hundred dollars less than the All-Clad version at the time). I have non-stick, I have cast iron, and now I have tri-ply stainless steel. They all have their uses. My neighbor and friend insisted on the All-Clad, and he has an enviable collection, but short of the nominal bragging rights, my food comes out just as good in my pro-clad; whatever the real or perceived differences between the two.
"Fabulous fry pan" 2010-04-29
By J. Robin
This is a phenomenal piece of cooking equipment - it heats up evenly in seconds and cleans at least as well as a non-stick pan. Love it!
"Tri-clad?" 2010-02-15
By Steven Hobbs (Cape Cod, MA)
This is not a negative review, just some observations. Pan arrived today, well packed in emerilware's original box. Since this is basically an aluminum pan clad with stainless top & bottom, I tried the magnet test. My small telescoping magnet sticks to the bottom as if it were a cast iron pan, leading me to wonder what kind of 'aluminum' is inside. I wouldn't think a skin of stainless steel on the bottom would produce such ferric attraction. So I went to emerilware's webside to ascertain the composition. Well I found no specific info and no 'contact us' link, anywhere. Then googled their contact info and came up with a phone number, 800-255-2523. Turns out they're closed today, President's Day. Then called Amazon, immediately received an agent and told her the issue. I'll call emerilware tomorrow and see what I can find out. Seems as if emerilware is not really connected with the producer of this pan. Was told by Emerilware rep that stainless bottom is enhanced to improve induction heating. I would add more stars to review but can't.
