5 Quart Sauteuse Pan with Lid - Titanium Strengthened 316Ti Stainless Steel with 5-Ply Construction - Induction-Ready and Fully Clad, Made in USA

I followed the cleaning instructions upon receipt. I washed the pot and lid by hand very well with warm soapy water; running my hand over all surfaces to ensure I could not feel any manufacturing residue; then ran it through the dishwasher to be doubly sure all residue was gone. Cooked a Mediterranean casserole in it - browned the meat on the stovetop, added spices and vegetables, put on the lid, placed in the oven for an hour. Well, no sticking and the casserole is fabulous. Cleanup is fast and easy. I will be replacing other pots with Heritage steel. It is also a work of art! Could not be more pleased.

I love this pot. I was trying to purge my house of Teflon and consolidate the number of different types of cooking vessels crowding my cabinets. I debated between this and an enamel coated dutch oven, but my other enamelware always chipped so I went for the stainless. The pot is really well made and I love that is has titanium in the stainless. The size makes it really useful for many purposes. I had hoped it could also replace my teflon sauteuse, but I found I still needed something larger and flatter. Still, this works for chili, stews, curries, pasta dishes and I have yet to use it in the oven but I'm sure I will soon. It cleans as any stainless, which is to say if you want it shiny, using a bit if barkeeper's friend is the way to go. Let's face it, nothing cleans as easy as teflon, but at least this pot isn't killing me and I won't have to replace it in 2 years because it's flaking into my food. It's a quality item that I won't have to replace in my lifetime.

We just got this and haven't used it hard yet, but for the first few dishes we made it performed flawlessly. Light enough to handle by just the long handle, heats at least as even as our thick cast iron pans, was quite non-stick first try, browns evenly and well, corner radii fit our utensils well, etc. The performance isn't all - the fit and finish and overall look are just great. Perfect for rissotto. I will use this premium pan a lot!

This was the size that we were missing in our collection. Food items listed in the title and every day cooking the 8 quart too big sometimes, 4 quart too small. We have them all now for any cooking need! Hi quality pots and pans!Love! Love! Food tastes fresh and easy to clean. Trick is to warm up the cookware on low heat. They still get hot fast and conduct heat across the surface. Then do the water test with a few drops. If they dance around in little beads then the pan is hot. Next the oil but only a little bit goes a long ways. Oil starts to shimmer, not smoke, and you are ready! Cook on medium low and perfect everytime. Boiling water just as you would any other pot.The pots/pans also hold their heat, so great for serving! Best set of cookware we have owned and with the confidence that the material of the pots/pans is not bleading into our food! Looking at you Dupont! ☠️

As soon as we took the pan out of the box, we knew it was worth the price. The pieces are stunning. We've decided to order a set from Heritage and throw out old cookware out.

This is a beautiful pan and very heavy, so be prepared. Also, these are 5 ply not 7 as advertised here. Just go to Google and check the Heritage Steel website. Looks like they only make 5 ply. I got mine for less than half price from Amazon sold as "used in like new condition," so I was expecting some damage, but there was none. It did in fact look brand new, and it was in perfect condition. On close examination, I found plenty of polishing compound residue. It looks like this pan might have missed final inspection. To be fair, though, an enclosed notice mentions the possibility of residue and gives instructions for cleaning in hot soapy water and vinegar, which I eventually did. But first, I used paper towels to rub off the polishing compound which is waxy and would probably resist water. The handles are beautiful and very comfortable, and the pan is a pleasure to use. Everything else is exactly as advertised.

I really liked the look of this. I have a 2qt one and it is easy to clean and heats up fast. The first thing I did with this one was check the rivets. I always do on any pan I get that has them. I can slide my fingernails under them. I figured if my fingernails can get under them, so can food. I decided I don't want to have to try and clean that. And thought about the possibility of it leaking there. I returned the pan.

Been looking forever for a large saute pot with high walls without the long handle. The 6 quart rondeau is awesome from that perspective. Wish the pan diameter is even larger at 12". (Current dimensions are 11" cooking surface diameter with a height around 4.25".) That would be perfect! for context, I cook a lot of vegetables that wilts in the pot. A giant pot of spinach often gets reduced to a single serving. The rondeau has the size and height to help manage large volume of veggies at it's raw state.This rondeau is beautiful, nice finish and the right weight for that premium product feel. Unfortunately, when I unboxed the product, there were a couple of noticable scratches inside. See pictures above. As others have mentioned, they really need to step up their quality control. For a $240 product, this should not have passed their QA. Sure, it's a pot and it will get scratched. But in this premium cookware category, this is unacceptable. Submitted an exchange for the product, hope the exchange has no flaws.

The pan is good but smaller than expected. The product description size was "‎39.88 x 24.38 x 11.18 cm; 771.11 Grams". However, the actual diameter was 19cm on the inside and 20.5cm including the outer rim!
