Circulon SteelShield Stainless Steel Saucepan/Sauté Pan with Lid, 3 Quart, Silver

Its deep with straight sides heats evenly.

I like the weight and depth of the pan. Everything has cooked evenly and it cleans easily. I've made the best grilled cheese sandwiches in this pan. Looking forward to buying more.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pan set is super amazing, it makes me want to cook more! The 3 quart size is a deep pan that works for almost anything. The nonstick feature works like a charm too, very easy to clean. Great pan for any level of cooker

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this pan, it's made with high quality, you can feel it. No matter what I have cooked in it so far it hasn't stuck and been as easy to clean as wiping and rinsing. I also like not having to worry about my hubby ruining my pan using metal utensils...it's completely fine!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used this pan twice now and I have to say I love it. I really like how the handle doesn't get hot and is very comfortable to use. The pan is very sleek and visually pleasing as well. After using it twice the pan still looks brand new and washes up nicely. I look forward to purchasing a whole set of these pots and pans in the near future!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Everyone should have a 3 quart pan in their kitchen. Although this one is a little bit heavy for my liking, BUT, it's quality cookware. I now have two because there are times I need two at the same time. It can be put in the oven which is great. If you cook, you need one. Or two.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great heavy-duty pan that is perfect for a grilled cheese sandwich or for a smaller full meal. Very heavy pan that is incredibly sturdy and well made. The handle is nice too. Food doesn't stick to it which is wonderful. Very easy to clean as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the perfect size for a single person or someone cooking for two. It heats up fast and evenly. I live that it comes with a lid as some sauté pans do not. The nonstick surface was easy to hand wash. It looks good and I like that the lid can be placed upside down in the pan for stackable storage.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Circulon 3qt sauté pan has been a wonderful new addition to my cookware collection. The pan is a beautiful stainless steel and comes with a lid to cover. The pan is made of high quality material and very durable. My food comes out evenly cooked and delicious everytime. This is of my go to pans now when cooking. I hope to get more from this line soon!

I didn't buy it for searing, and can't speak to its quality for that. I would have preferred a version that was just non-stick without the metal rings, but such an option isn't available. Most of what I'd use it for has a lot of liquid, so it doesn't really make a difference for me anyway. The only thing that I'd outright criticize is how high up the handle curves. I can't think of any advantages to that, but as far as disadvantages, it requires more space to store, and prevents you from being able to rest a cooking utensil on the handle, as the steep slope will cause it to keep sliding into the pan.
