Was hesitant to purchase this pan due to reading some of the less favorite reviews. However, I sure am glad that I bought it. It lives up to the All Clad standard of quality. Great pan!
Ideal all-in-one pan for those with limited space (or budget!) September 2, 2008

I've been absolutely thrilled with the french skillet since it came in a couple weeks ago. I love to cook, but I'm limited on both space in my small apartment with even smaller kitchen, and limited budget. This pan serves double duty for a skillet (aka fry pan), which is designed with very low sides to allow easy access and a wide surface area, and a saute pan which alternatively has vertical sides to hold liquid inside. The french skillet sides are half-way between -- tall, but with a bit of flare to allow access -- and I now use it regularly for both purposes. In fact, I'd say its preferable to a skillet in all cases that I use it for; the taller sides (and 45 degree handle, which I really like) make pan-flipping a snap.
Finally, it goes without saying that the construction of the pan itself is top-notch, as one would expect from All-Clad. It looks beautiful (hey, that's important too!) and I've found that the 3-ply stainless conducts heat wonderfully -- its worth noting, however, that the gauge of the steel is not as thick as other products in this line, such as their saucepans, and nowhere near as thick as some of their other lines (such as LTD).

Bought this for my wife. She loves it. Nothing sticks. The handle sticks up a little too high, but it is definitely worth the inconvenience.

I received this pan as a Christmas gift, purchased from Williams Sonoma. It was wonderful to cook with, but I noticed that the center of the pan seemed higher than the edges, causing any liquid to pool along the sides. When I took it back to the Mall of America Williams Sonoma where it was purchased, they discovered the pans they had in stock all had the same cupping! They told me it would be reported to All-Clad, and that I should get a new pan, but haven't heard anything yet, and that was four months ago. Just wondered if anyone else had the same problem. The pan cleans up beautifully with just a bit of soaking, and I use the new professional Pam which doesn't darken and stick as regular Pam does.
