1. All-Clad is the best cookware for the price! The Windsor pan is a little known tool that can save the serious cook a huge amount of time in the kitchen. Reducing stocks, sauces, jelly juice, etc is greatly enhanced by the use of a Windsor pan. The narrow bottom concentrates the heat for faster boiling and the wide top allows liquid to rapidly evaporate. I've been wanting one for years! Finally, Xmas comes to our house!

1. Nice looking is about all I can say for this Kettle. I've had two. The first one leaked from the bottom. All Clad was good about replaceing it. The second one also leaked within about a year. The spout is difficult to use and I've been scolded a couple of times fooling with it.
   No reflection on the All-Clad Stainless cook ware I have, which is excellant.
   
   I don't know about the all stainless version, but this one is very poorly designed. Looks great though ... :-)



2. we have now had two of these kettles.both leeked badly from the base of the spout.the handle is not very protective.we give up.its too much bother to return this item again.looking elswhere.



3. After many years of using Magnalite I bought new AllClad LTD cookware, including this teapot. As the other reviewers stated, the stay cool handle doesn't work. After a year of daily use the kettle leaked at the bottom of the spout and shortly after that the bottom sprang a leak.
   Don't waste your money on this one



4. Love the stainless All-Clad line, and I have many pieces. I am not happy with the tea kettle. The "stay cool" handle gets very hot and if you want to use the whistle feature, you need to pull the piping hot whistle from the pour spout in order to pour out the water and put it back in after each use. Not worth the money.



5. The description states that this teakettle has a stay-cool handle which it definitely does not. The All-Clad cookware has the most amazingly cool handles so I expected the same. The maximum fill line for water is 1/3 down from the top, making the kettle a larger size than it needs to be for the recommended capacity. The balance point when pouring is not optimum and the handle flexes with the weight of the kettle and water. The whistle needs to be removed by hand when pouring then reinserted afterwards. The spring detent is stiff and makes this operation potentially risky. On the positive side, it does boil water rapidly, the whistle sounds good, and the spout doesn't drip.

1. My wife an I duked it out between Calphalon Commercial Nonstick (now called "Contemporary") which she preferred for its lighter weight and All-Clad which I prefer for its tougher build. We have a bunch of each. The All-Clad stuff is better hands down. It heats quicker and more evenly. It seems to cook requiring lower stove temperatures. The anodized exterior is smoother and of higher quality. The clad stainless interior is exquisite and easy to clean.
   
   This particular set is good. I could quibble and say that they should have included the 10 inch fry pan instead of the 8 inch. The 8 inch is too small for everyday use. I have a family of 4 so I prefer a couple of larger pans (12" fry and 5 Qt. Saute are really nice to have). The choice of stainless interior versus nonstick is personal - but I recommend the stainless interior. First of all, the stainless interior is virtually indestructible and will last a lifetime. All-Clad's nonstick interior is the best in the business, but it does wear out. I've had several LTD nonstick pieces for 9 years now. The ones that get a lot of wear are starting to wear out. Nothing is more pathetic than a battleship built All-Clad pan with a frayed nonstick interior. It's like putting fur in a truck bed. Nonstick might be easier to clean up - but the difference is trivial. Maybe you have the intention of cooking with less oil, but the difference between nonstick and LTD's excellent mirror-like stainless interior is also trivial. I find the arguments for nonstick hard to defend.
   
   As for the review that says anodized aluminum exteriors are hard to maintain, she should read the product literature. You clean anodized aluminum with a plastic scrubby (like the 3M green ones) with bleach cleanser (like Ajax or Comet). Just make a paste with the cleanser and power away stains in moments. Anodized aluminum - like all aluminum cannot be dish washed. The phosphates and brightening agents in dishwasher soap with create a chalky powdery rot in the anodized surface. If you are determined to dishwash your cookware you must forget about aluminum and stick to stainless steel. All-Clad makes a great like of stainless cookware - but nothing is prettier than LTD's awesome black.

   I've had All Clad LTD pans for a number of years now. I usually cook several times a day almost everyday & although these pans cook beautifully and the interior looks beautiful & cleans up easily, the anodized exterior looks terrible now. I wouldn't mind so much but I have them hanging on decorative pot rack. For that reason I want to replace them with the less expensive version in stainless steel but the financial loss is killing me. I don't have room in my small kitchen to put them away. We've had a stainless steel All-Clad sauce pan for a few years which still looks great and isn't embarrassing hanging from our rack. If you don't mind so much what your pots look like then these would probably be a great choice. If anyone knows any great secrets to keeping these looking great, please post them in the discussion area. I've contacted All-Clad several times and do exactly as they say without achieving any desired results.
