Best praise vs top criticism for All-Clad D3 Stainless Steel
“I’m no all-clad expert, but I am becoming an expert of being jealous :) In all seriousness It seems like a great deal to me!”
“None of the above. The D3 is cheaper and performs better than all of these in ATK tests. Think bulky stainless pans are a waste of money because you might as well just use a $25 lodge skillet if you’re looking for thermal mass. With stainless you want responsiveness.”
