This stainless exterior is very easy to clean and maintains its finish and rarely if ever needs to be polished as with so many lesser quality brands. It is recommended to wash this cookware by hand to maintain the stainless steel luster, but me personally I have not had any issues using my dishwasher with them.

This cookware line comes equipped with stainless steel stay cool handles and copper core is oven safe up to five hundred degrees. The stainless steel exterior is great for searing foods and then deglazing to make sauces and gravies.

The All-Clad Cookware LTD model has an anodized aluminum exterior (your choice of black or dark gray) which is excellent for heat transfer. The sleek look of this is All-Clad Cookware line is just an added bonus to their impressive heat conductivity.

You can also find the All-Clad Cop-R-Chef models whose exteriors are made with easy-to-clean, extra-thick copper that’s chip and crack resistant. They are similarly made of 18/10-grade stainless steel, just as the All-Clad Copper Core Cookware. This line features a copper core for greater heat conductivity and a rolled rim to make pouring easy.
