Cuisinart Classic 3.5" Stainless Steel Pour Saucepan with Straining Lid

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am really happy with this Cuisinart saucepan because it’s sturdy, strong, and high quality. The size is perfect size for my family’s everyday cooking needs. I used it today to boil eggs and vegetables, and the built in straining holes on the lid made draining the hot water effortless and much safer than using a separate colander. It is also a great size for making soup or curry. Easy to use and dishwasher safe. I highly recommend it.

Perfect

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 3.5-quart stainless steel saucepan with dual-size built-in strainers has quickly become the most surprisingly versatile piece in my kitchen its brushed steel body heats evenly without hotspots, and the clever two-option strainer lid saves me from juggling colanders for everything from delicate noodles to chunky vegetables. I love how solid and well-balanced it feels, with a handle that stays cool even during long simmers, and the drip-free pouring edge makes transferring sauces completely mess-free. It’s rare to find a pan that handles everyday tasks with such polish while also feeling engineered for convenience, but this one manages both effortlessly, making it the kind of cookware you reach for almost without thinking.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am all set for the holidays folks! I got a new sauce pan that is big enough to hold the right amount of water and potpourri! One thing I begin in early fall is making my own potpourri to get the amazing citrus/fruity aroma in my home! I am excited to use the new saucepan, a perfect size to simmer on my stove! The added bonus are holes, two sizes may I add, on the lid and a pouring spout on the pot edge to make spilling water easy and safe after I’m done! Great but for the quality!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can't say enough good things about this Cuisinart saucepan. It's an essential that instantly improved my cooking routine! The quality is great, the premium stainless steel construction is solid, feels durable, and looks fantastic. More importantly, it performs flawlessly. The pot heats up quickly and evenenly, it was perfect for my potato soup. The very best part was clean up, I didnt have to scrub after cooking. The pot washed out easily and looked like new after. I also really like the the features of the pour spout and straining lid, this is going to make cooking easier withoout having to strain separately or worry about spills. Knowing it's dishwasher safe and has a lifetime warranty are total bonuses for this pot that I really appreciate. Would reccomend to other cooks!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm really impressed with this Cuisinart saucepan. The stainless steel feels high quality and it heats up nice and evenly thanks to the three-layer base. The Cool Grip™ handle stays comfortable to hold, even when the pan is hot, which I really appreciate. The straining lid is such a smart feature-it makes draining pasta or veggies so easy! I also love that it has measurement markings inside, which saves me from using extra measuring cups. Overall, it's a sturdy, well-made pan that's easy to use and clean. Definitely recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great size pot. It’s medium size so very versatile. There are thoughtful details such as measurements inside the pot to see how much liquid you have and straining holes within the lid. It’s good quality and I love that it’s dishwasher safe. I used this pot today to make pasta and it was the perfect size. I will definitely be getting a lot of use out of this one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] High quality, heavy stainless steel cookware with even heat conduction, as illustrated by the center photo. The bubbles in the water boiled evenly across the bottom surface of the pan, indicating that there is even heat distribution, ensuring sauces and liquids do not scorch during the cooking process. The lid has strainer holes in the sides which is a convenient feature! This is a pan you will most likely never need to replace.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a high quality, heavy duty saucepan! It is slightly larger than I expected based on the description, which I am pleased with. I can set a gallon of milk in the pan, to give an idea of the size. The lid is glass, which allows easy monitoring of the food inside. The lid also has holes to strain the water, which makes it much easier to thoroughly drain something like broccoli without using a strainer. I really like the look of the mirrored stainless steel and the thickness of the bottom of the pot. I look forward to using it for many years to come!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great multi-purpose pot! This will likely be my go-to for most of my dishes from now on! A great size and it isn’t too heavy which is the issue I have with some of my other cookware. It comes with a nice lid and I LOVE the spout on the side so it is way to pour out of. The stainless steel is high quality and I know it will hold up for many years to come. I can’t wait to make more dishes soon!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very high quality pan. I love the size of it. It comes with a lid which is very nice. The lid has slots on two sides to drain water out such as when you make pasta. It's very convenient to have this in the lid and helps to save a dish. I love that it is stainless steel. We have been trying to switch from lined or Teflon for health reasons. This pan is very sturdy and so far easy to wash

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this stainless steel 3.5qt sauce pan! It was nice and deep, heated quickly and evenly, and maintained its heat very well. My favorite features are the measuring lines inside the pot and the cool grip handle. The measuring lines help me fill it without needing a measuring cup. The cool grip handle made maneuvering the pot around the stovetop so easy. The only downside was the stainless steel handle got lots of fingerprints and smudges on it. Just a visual annoyance, but the pot itself cleaned up very nicely.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cannot say enough good things about this pan! It was the perfect weight, although it seemed as if it would be heavier, it was lightweight, but not feeling cheap. I have used it for a variety of things are ready. I boiled eggs, boiled a pound of pasta, and made a beef stew. It is the perfect size, not too large or bulky to take up too much room. I also absolutely loved that it had a bit of a spout to drain and the top had a feature with little holes to also drain. I look forward to buying more to create a set of these pans! Highly highly recommend recommended.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love that this pot has a strainer lid. The strainer lid makes it perfect for making pasta. I made noodles and it was easy enough to strain. It’s a nice heavy duty pot. It’s a good size for making pasta for the whole family without it taking up too much space. It is dishwasher safe so hoping over many washes that it stays nice and doesn’t get damaged. I would purchase a set over just one piece to save a bit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow, this is a perfect sized pot for making mac & cheese or broccoli for a whole family. The pot I had before this was always just a little bit too small. I also love that this pot comes with a lid that doubles as strainer so that I can easily drain off the water when it’s done cooking. I tested it with boiling water and it worked great. my absolute favorite thing about it though is that it is all dishwasher safe. I would definitely recommend this.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first time purchasing stainless steel cookware and I’m very happy with it! The pot has a lot of cool features. I really like that it has measurements in the side (see picture #3.) in both liters and cups. I loved that it also has a spout in the side and the lid has holes in the side to help make straining super easy. It was easy to clean and I would love to buy more sizes!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I replaced a name brand ceramic viral set with these and good riddance to the old ones. We upgraded to an induction stove last year and or ceramic set sucked. These heat up super fast, have measuring info on the inside, have a pouring spout and little holes in the lid - features our other set didn't have. This set sold me on Cuisinart and will be the set I reach for in the future. What a great pot!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really like this pot. I don’t normally cook with stainless steel but this was a nice experience. The pot and lid were a nice quality. I really like that the pot had measurements on the inside, in cups and liters; and that the lid is vented. The handle on the pot and the lid did get hot so I had to use a pot holder; but that was also expected. Overall, this was a great purchase.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So happy to move over to stainless steel from non stick pans! This one is an awesome size that can be used for a multitude of things and so happy to use any utensils with it without worrying about the non stick being ruined or getting into our food. Would highly recommend if you are trying to move away from nonstick pans like our family. Very happy with this purchase

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the perfect medium size pot for making pastas and it comes with a strainer on the side making it great to pour out water. I love this pot and it’s an essential part of my cooking. I like to even shallow deep fry in this pot and it works well. The stainless steel makes for a great non toxic option. Would buy this for anyone I know. I love how lightweight this pot is.
