Review of Sitram Profiserie 4.9-Quart Commercial Stainless Steel Saute Pan

This stainless steel cookware has a thick aluminum disk bonded to the bottom surface.The thick disk provides good, uniform heating, and this piece is large enough that, on a small home burner, scorching at the bottom circumference (where the disk ends) is not a problem.Obviously, some proteins will stick to bare stainless, but that's great for making pan sauces, and I've had no trouble cleaning it by boiling some water in the dirty pan.

The handle is excellent.It is thick, round, and comfortable.On the stovetop, the handle stays cool.After the pan has been in the oven, the handle is of course hot (a fact I frequently forget), but it actually cools off quite quickly.The handle is welded, so there are no rivets to make cleaning difficult.This is a large, heavy pan, though, and I would have appreciated a helper handle on the opposite side.

The construction of the pan is definately commercial/industrial.It feels solid and durable.The edges of the aluminum disk have little or no bevel; that is, they edges of the disk meet the bottom of the pan at about a 90 degree angle.This gives the pan something of an unfinished look, and could lead to the edge of the disk catching on the burner grate as you put it on the burner or move it around.Also, the bottom surface of the aluminum disk is not polished--you can see the machining pattern.This makes it a little hard to move smoothly over the burner grate when sautéing.

I am quite happy with the pan, and will continue to buy other Sitram cookware.

Review of Sitram Profiserie 3.3-Quart Commercial Stainless Steel Saute Pan

incredibly fast and even searing/cooking of thick cuts of meat and chopped vegetables. i'm extremely pleased with my decision to purchase this saute pan as i spent hours and hours reading cookware reviews shared by others. this pan outperforms my all-clad, calphalon and copper pans in the saute arena AND the sitram profiserie collection is nsf certified, tested to 1112 degrees farenheit, 18/10 stainless steel, suitable for all heat sources (including induction cook tops) and safe for ovens and freezers. with a matte finish and rounded, stay cool stainless steel, hand-welded handles and limited lifetime warranty, it's well worth the money. while my order did not include a lid, a matching sitram lid or a universal, no name lid is available.
