Very happy with this addition to our home's All Clad cookware collection.  Say you're caramelizing onions on a cooktop, or roasting a chicken in the oven at 475:  Fond deglazes with ease using wine, broth, or even plain water.  Simple clean up with bar keeper's friend powder to a paste for heavy duty cleaning occasions.   This will get great use for a lifetime.  I actually like this more than my inherited great grandmother's 100 yr old cast iron pan now!   Tip, follow their simple instructions for care to not foolishly warp this pan if super hot with cold water shock.
