We're retiring our cheaper (made in China) celebrity-endorsed nonstick cookware that has worn out (shows definite signs of wear) & decided to spend the money on an All-Clad Stainless Steel Saucepan 1.5 Quart made in the USA.  We love it & have ordered a second saucepan (3.5 quart).  The saucepan does weigh more than what we had before & we've been careful to follow the care instructions & have been happy with this pan / brand & the stainless steel cookware.  Will add additional pieces of this cookware to our set in the future.
