Cuisinart 714-18 Chef's Classic Stainless 2-Quart Windsor Pan with Cover



A must have pan for sauce reduction.
The shape of this pan tapers towards the bottom. This allows the heat to concentrate on a smaller area....which is exactly what you need to hastened sauce reduction.

The difference in price for the chef's classic disc bottom compared to a tri ply clad stainless is huge. A tri ply clad constuction is not that necessary to the function of this pan. That is undoubtably why Cuisinart does not make the Windsor pan in tri ply clad stainless.

A must have for any serious cook....and a great value to boot.

Great Sauce Pan!
This is a great pan to use for sauces. I would recommend it if you are looking for a classic sauce pan.

Another score!
This line of Cuisinart pans is proving a great value. I wanted the nicer stuff and even though I may like the American Kitchen mid-line better(a really attractive and well-constructed pan, MADE in WI,USA!), I LIKE these pans. Well constructed, good even heat over gas and the weight makes for easy handling. Overall, pleased as punch. Read the instructions and bon appetit!

*UPDATE* 05mar13, I am rolling this back to 4-star from 5. Still like this pan as it heats well, is lightweight without feeling cheap and I like the look. The operative...lightweight...NOT for the demanding kitchen. Elbow grease required for best results keeping the look. I would recommend for simple everyday use.
