Good deal on a tri-ply clad similar in performance to Cuisinart's MuliClad Pro and All Clad's D3.

Has a helper handle and the sides are sloped more gently than other pans making it similar to a shallow wok style which sacrifices a bit of the flat surface area.

Inner diameter measures: 8.5 in. or 21 cm.

Lifetime Warranty

Also available at Home Depot [homedepot.com] for $32.97 with free shipping.
The photos on Home Depot are incorrect showing a pan with steeper sides. It will be the pan as shown on Amazon with the gentler sides.

It sticks only because you lack the knowledge and experience in how to cook with a stainless steel pan.
For anyone interested, you may also want to consider Kirkland 5-ply cookware from Costco. It's $200 for 6 pans/pots, $33 for each.
I received this from Home Depot and it looks like the pictures from Amazon so the pictures on Home Depot are wrong/misleading.

This will have the gentler sloped sides as seen on the Amazon pictures.

I mentioned this in my original post, but I guess the mods removed the info when they posted it to the front page.

Also some more info that was removed: because of the gentle sloped sides the flat cooking surface area is a little small for 12" pan.

Inner Diameter measures: 8.5 in. or 21 cm.

Google seasoning a stainless steel pan. I also used to do it wrong.

First of all - people can of course do whatever they want, in their own way, when it comes to cooking.

However, general advice- If this is what you want to do with a pan, I'd recommend just getting carbon steel. It's cheaper and made for this. Seasoning won't stick well to stainless steel because it's so smooth and will come off super easily, and …

Seasoning a stainless steel pan in many ways defeats the purpose of using a stainless steel pan in the first place. You WANT things to stick in a stainless steel pan (slightly, over the cooking time) and then release (mostly). This grab and release is what helps with proper browning and develops fond. You should also be able to scrub the heck out of it when needed and not worry about the longevity of the surface.

If you don't want browning (or some sticking) use a nonstick or similar pan.

I have an induction is there a good one u recommend
Last spring Amazon had one All-Clad D7 12" in stock. Shocked when it actually arrived. It's still in the box. What can you not cook with Staub L-C a roasting pan and an Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus? Luv the hd inner pot with handles on the D-E-P which also works on induction. Finaly threw out the microwave last year.

It's not the same as seasoning cast iron. I'm not sure what you are getting at. But I agree that carbon steel is great.

Quote from transparent99 :
America's test kitchen has videos where they compare 5 ply to 3 ply. Their conclusion: more plys doesn't make the pan better, may even perform worse (longer to heat up) and generally no benefit for additional price. This was for All-clad. Perhaps for cheaper brands it might be useful *if* it prevents warping and isn't more expensive.
All-Clad D5 has less aluminum in the core than D3. Extra layer is just for warping. Shows how little ATK knows about induction. This Tramotina is as good as any China pan. If I was stuck using a typical obsolete U.S. cooktop then I'd buy Tramotina not what A-C is selling these days. If ATK wants to be useful then they will begin reporting on heavy metal content and leeching or energy efficiency at a minimum.

Quote from timbertop :
Good deal for an economy light duty large SS fry pan. As an induction user I don't bother with anything less than a Demeyere or the nla Allclad D7 due to warping. As for buying cookware sets every chef will advise buying only what is needed to prepare your favorite dishes and buying the appropriate tecnology for that pan or pot. Sets always include pieces that don't get used or do not perform well for the intended task.
While I agree with most of what you suggest, the irony of the $289.95 Demeyere 12" SS fry pan vs this $32.95 Tramontina 12" SS fry pan is they both have a rating of 4.5 stars on Amazon.

I also have multiple pieces of Allclad and Tramontina and I can't tell which brand I'm using when cooking with induction. Personally I'd save the $257 difference. Finally, this pan is made in Brazil, and like the Demeyere, has shallow sloped sides.

I thought these Kirklands were prone to warping? Sam's Club has Tramontina and Viking sets as well for similar prices.
Supposedly they updated them and fixed that issue. I've had mine for a bit and haven't had any warp issues

Seasoning any pan is the same process. It is act of polymerizing thin layers of oil via high heat. If you're referring to heating the pan until it passes the "mercury ball" test, then that's different and yes, also the correct way to know when stainless is ready

It sounds like you want to argue a technicality. They are not the same result. Either way, I don't want to argue nonsense, good day.

I purchased my the Demeyere as Kitchen Aide Professional for not much more than the cost of this Tramontina on the deal here a while back. There is no irony in attempting to compare quality and function of these two pans by Amazon stars just lunacy. Tramontina over All-Clad yes that was my pick as stated above.

absolutely no need... it does nothing other than pre-oil the pan. in fact, seasoning is a poor term... nothing like carbon or cast iron seasoning.

Quote from Somnambulator :
yes of course- it's stainless steel. Good pan and excellent value even at msrp. All Clad is so incredibly overpriced considering how barely better their SS line is than Tramontina's.

Stainless steel also means chance of rust in the dishwasher, hence the question.

And yes, All Clad is best. Little difference is huge difference.

Is there a difference between restaurant burger vs fastfood burger vs michelin star burger? Little difference.

got mine today, looks fantastic and an awesome size!
Is the bottom of the pan flat? I have a set of Cuisinart 3-ply, but even with the extreme care with witch I've used them, they're all bowed. Some were bowed right out of the box. Some have pitting problems. I'm ready to trash them all. Never buy Cuisinart 3-ply.

It's a fry pan so it has a flat bottom.

I think Cuisinart has a lifetime warranty so if you aren't able to return them you should be able to get them replaced under warranty.
