Cuisinart 16qt Stainless Steel Stock Pot with Cover Silver: Dishwasher & Oven-Safe, Tempered Glass Lid, Riveted Handle

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have made some heavy duty dishes like risotto and lamb shanks, pasta carbonara, and rib eye steak with butter and rosemary. The pans go easily from stove top to oven, they have even heat, and clean up well in dishwasher. I would highly recommend this set because the 12 piece set is so versatile.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have bought last 3 years ago the 11 piece set very satisfied good quality and affordable Rafael Hernandez

I ordered wrong size..but its a mice pot..keeping it..lol

I have enjoyed making many meals over a decade with this. It is still in great condition, and performs very well!

I really like the weight of this cookware. I had purchased a less expensive set, but the frying pans were very lightweight and felt flimsy. What I really like is how easy everything is to clean, even when something has stuck on the bottom.

I've wanted to switch to stainless pans for a while and put it off until now. These Cuisinart pieces seemed like a fine choice. Cooked several meals now and they absolutely deliver, provided proper techniques are used.

I bought this set about a month ago. Preheated the pans and they warped. Very disapointed. Dont waste your money. Wont buy anything from them again

These pans have a great feel- heavy and substantial. I was tired of nonstick pans that couldn't take metal utensils or hot ovens.

I finally took the plunge and bought my 1st stainless steel cookware set. After searching up reviews after reviews Cuisinart Multiclad Pro was the best option for cost and performance. When unboxing you notice right away that these pots and pans are very good quality and absolutely beautiful. I’ve been using them since day 1 so happy that I did and regret not getting them sooner.

Amazing design on the outside of the cookware. The handles feel nice and the cookware is not heavy to lift. The cookware heats up fast and cooks evenly. This cookware set makes dinnermaking fun.

The quality is great

These stainless steel pots are great, been using them for the last couple months. Look nice and hold heat very well. Would definitely recommend them.

Historically, I have bought an expensive cookware that has done the job but hasn’t been great. This is my first somewhat high-end purchase and the quality is amazing. The pans are heavy well-made and I anticipate they will last for a lifetime. Nice to finally have good quality cookware!

I had wonderful pot and pan set that I'd had for close to 20 years that was still in great condition and cooked well. I didn't want to get rid of them but they weren't induction capable. So, when I purchased an induction kitchen range I knew I had to say goodbye to them and get an induction compatible cookware set. Several years ago I purchased the Cuisinart MultiClad Pro Stainless 3-Quart Casserole with lid and it did become a favorite pan to use at my house. I cook daily so a really good affordable set was very important. When it came time to get an induction compatible set I decided to get a MultiClad Pro stainless steel set because I already knew it would be good quality...and it wouldn't hurt that all of my pots and pans matched, lol. They are so easy to use and to clean! They all heat quickly and evenly. They're a good, sturdy set that's good looking hanging on my kitchen wall. The lids fit well and the handles stay cool. I know I'm supposed to hand wash them but they've also gone through the dishwasher multiple times and still keep their shine and appearance. I am really glad I got this MultClad Pro set. I know I'll be able to use it for many, many years to come and be able to cook many, many good meals with them too. :)

Great pot for pasta! This pot works with an induction burner, so I was able to cook pasta for 100!

beautifully made oit

Love the new pot and pan set! I’ve already added several additional pieces. The pots are very well made and durable. They clean up nicely.

I’ve had these pans for 20 years. Over time the clad bottoms on some of them has come loose and begun to separate from the pan. I would not purchase this style again, preferring a pan that is all one piece. I rxpected these to last a lifetime and wish I had kept my old Revereware.

An excellent starter set. Between this set and a few pieces I’ve picked up along the way combined with my cast-iron skillets I everything I need.

I’ve owned my Cuisinart MultiClad Pro Triple Ply Stainless pans for nearly ten years, which I think says a lot right there. These are solid, well-made pans that deliver excellent performance for the price — as long as you understand how to use stainless steel correctly. When I first bought them, I didn’t. Like many people, I assumed stainless worked like nonstick. Over time, I learned that these pans are effectively non-stick if you preheat them properly and add oil before cooking. Once I figured that out, they performed beautifully: great searing, even heat distribution, and reliable results across everything from eggs to meats and sauces. Where things went wrong was user error — twice. First, I warped a couple of pans by running cold water over them while they were still hot. That’s on me, not the cookware. Stainless with an aluminum core doesn’t love thermal shock, and I learned that lesson the hard way. Second, I damaged the rims by routinely putting the pans in the dishwasher. Cuisinart states they’re dishwasher safe if you use a non-lemon detergent — which sounds reasonable in theory, but in practice is confusing. It’s not at all clear which detergents qualify, and over time the dishwasher eroded the exposed aluminum at the rims. That left sharp stainless edges, which is frustrating and something Cuisinart could communicate better. That said, even with those mistakes, these pans held up impressively well for nearly a decade of regular use. The construction is excellent, the cooking performance is consistent, and the value is hard to beat compared to higher-priced stainless brands. One maintenance tip that made a big difference: Bar Keepers Friend. When these pans pick up heat stains or discoloration (which stainless inevitably does), Bar Keepers Friend brings them back to looking nearly new with minimal effort. It’s especially useful after high-heat cooking and is safe for stainless when used as directed. I consider it essential if you own these pans.
