Quoted: Before everyone says just use cast iron, I have plenty of cast iron but also like to use a stainless pan for things that will damage the seasoning. Use enameled cast iron (Le Creuset)?

I have a number of All-Clad pots and pans and they are excellent. Mine are close to 20 years old. I have no idea about current quality.
You could contact them through their site and tell them what you have experienced: https://www.all-clad.com/ I think of mine as top tier build quality but not luxury style. |

Covid AllClad.
I have the Emeril set which is the Chicom made AllClad, It's been fine. One large saucepan is a little domed on the bottom and I haven't got around to messing with fixing it yet as it doesn't get used much. |

Return it. Even the best stuff can have defective pieces slip through.
And consider Tramontina tri-ply clad (not tri-ply base). 90+% as good as All-Clad for a third of the price. Or at least it was when I bought mine. |

I bought one of their copper core pans to try out last year. They are expensive, but I noticed a dramatic difference. Food cooked better and more evenly. It can be a bitch to clean sometimes, but it's held up well so far, but at that price I'd expect it to.

Also, like most other companies, they have product tiers. The lower tier products are made overseas, the high end stuff like the copper core is actually made in the US, at made in the US prices.

I have plenty of AC. I rarely use it these days, preferring to use cast iron. Some of my AC is warped - I think from high heat. Have you ever seen the steel skillets they use in restaurants? They generally warped all to hell.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Aside from being super slow to adjust temperature and incompatible with cast iron, they are perfectly acceptable. How is a glass-top incompatible with cast iron?

Glass tops can really screw up some cookware.
Think it has to do with localized heating causing the pan bottoms to warp at high temps. |

Our last house we had a 5k thermador induction cooktop. No gas available and that was the best. I would call them or return it. The D5 series shouldn’t have a problem.

Poor care can ruin anything. I got about 15 years out of my skillet-then somehow managed to warp it. That said 15years vs an semi annual non stick

Quote HistoryQuoted: Overpriced. For the price of one all clad Pan you could buy a dozen non stick pans. Overpriced to say the least... same goes for Le Creuset. My wife has one All Clad tri-ply skillet she picked up at an estate sale. it does a decent job, but not good enough to justify the purchase of another All Clad pan. Most of her cookware is Tramontina; it does a good job according to her. Her favorite, and mine, is the OXO 12" Non-Stick Skillet. This skillet was $39 and it refuses to let food stick and cooks food evenly.   |

My 20+ year old stuff has been great.
I also have 40+ hear old Farberware that has held up very well, the stainless with copper insert in the bottom. I think that I bought them at Caldor's in the 70's. |
