The Super Versatile All-Clad Pan You’ll Use for Everything (It’s $155 Off Right Now!)
When I think of quality cookware, All-Clad almost immediately comes to mind. A leader in the cookware industry, the brand’s high-performing, no-frills pieces have been a staple in professional and at-home kitchens for decades. Their bonded stainless steel pots and pans really do last that long, believe it or not. In fact, one of our former editors built up her All-Clad collection nearly 20 years ago, and they’re still going strong. She even went as far as to say that she’s “100% confident” they’ll last a lifetime.
When you consider that and look at it as an investment — you won’t have to replace your cookware year after year — it’s a bit easier to swallow the brand’s steeper price tags. Luckily, though, All-Clad puts on plenty of sales, discounting everyday pieces that’ll see a ton of action in your kitchen. I’ve seen a ton of great deals from them lately — like the markdowns on their mini casserole pan and skillet — but their latest one takes the cake. The versatile D3 Stainless Braiser with Domed Lid is over half off (!) right now, and it’s bound to sell out fast.
What is the D3 Stainless Braiser with Domed Lid?
Nope, your eyes don’t deceive you: This workhorse of a pan is a whopping $155 cheaper, and it offers all of the hallmarks of your standard All-Clad piece. It’s compatible with any kind of stove, and the durable tri-ply construction — an aluminum core lies between two layers of stainless steel — means that it heats fast and evenly throughout. Its features include a spacious six-quart capacity (which is ideal for feeding at least four people), a flat base, and high sides, so you can sear and then slow roast in the oven.
It doesn’t hurt that it’ll look totally luxe sitting on your stovetop, either. Thanks to its convenient handles, the braiser can seamlessly move to the dinner table, doubling as a gorgeous serving dish. That’s right: It’ll minimize cleanup to only one piece! Though she tested out the D3 sauté pan rather than the braiser, contributor Stella says that the material is remarkably easy to clean.
What All-Clad Shoppers are Saying
Average Rating: 3.9/5
“A generous 6-quart stainless steel pan with a domed lid, it’s 15.9 x 13.0 x 6.8” and hugely versatile. I use this to braise meats, deep-fry, bake bread, boil pasta, roast a chicken, prepare 1-pan meals, soups & stews, stir-fry dishes, etc. You can do EVERYTHING in this pan. It goes from stovetop to oven to table. The beautiful, highly polished finish is impressive when brought directly to the table for serving. It’s also induction compatible. What’s not to LOVE about this pot. Worth every penny and will last you a lifetime. If you buy it you’ll never regret it.” – NYCBRAT
“Great product, great price. Just the right size, right shape, perfect for an everyday pan.” – HARC
“Great pan for searing then finish off the dish in the oven.” – PAULS
This classic braiser can handle a ton of tasks, whether you’re braising meat, preparing a soup, or simply boiling pasta. When you take into account all that it can do and that it’ll basically last forever, it’s easy to see why the sale price is a total bargain. If you’ve been wanting to start your own All-Clad collection — or want one piece that can do the job of a ton — this is your chance!
