KitchenAid Five-Ply Stainless-Steel Clad 8-Inch Open Skillet KitchenAid Five-Ply Stainless-Steel Clad 8-Inch Open Skillet Combining the virtues of stainless steel and aluminum, KitchenAid’s Five-Ply pots and pans are practical, durable, and beautiful. They contain three layers of aluminum across the bottoms and up the sides for quick, uniform heating without hot spots or scorching. Bonded to the aluminum core are nonreactive exteriors and interiors of 18/10 stainless steel that resist scratching, denting, and warping, as well as corrosion and discoloring. The stainless steel is polished to a mirror finish that retains its luster–though the bottoms inside are less polished to hide whisk and spatula marks.

Wearing a mirror finish inside and out and equipped with big handles, lids sit down deeply to produce tight seals. Cast-stainless-steel handles are triple-riveted for strength and gracefully arched for easy lifting. They stay cool on the stovetop and go safely into the oven up to 500 degrees F. This classic, slope-sided, 8-inch skillet (without lid) is ideal for saut ing veal medallions, frying smelt, and pan-roasting scallops, and its rounded rim resists drips when pouring. Though it’s dishwasher-safe, hand washing KitchenAid cookware prevents the surface from dulling. The first year of this item’s lifetime warranty against defects is “hassle-free,” with a replacement shipped at no cost and without question if a defect is detected. –Fred Brack
Customer Review: Great frying pan! Great price!
If you want to experience cooking with a steel clad frying pan, but don’t want to spend 115-150 dollars, I highly recommend this frying pan. You will be very pleased. You will not believe how tender chicken or pork will cook in this pan. Also, fried eggs cooked in this pan are fabulous. I’m not a gourmet chef. I’m a regular Joe. I am very happy with this pan and believe you will be also. If you are a chef who has worked in a five star French restaurant, you may want to spend the $150. Be my guest. LOL
Customer Review: Love my KitchenAid 5-Ply SS Clad cookware!!
I own a set and open stock pieces of this, and love how easy I can nest different pieces because of the handle design. Cleanup is easy, and occasional use of Bar Keepers Friend keeps my cookware looking new. [I agree that the inside rivets can be frustrating to clean; I keep an old toothbrush handy for that.]
Flat bottoms are essential for ceramic glasstop stoves and thankfully these are flat.
Ditched my nonstick and discovered truly versatile, dependable, beautiful cookware when I bought KA 5-ply!
