All-Clad Stainless-Steel 3-Quart Casserole
By L. Aaron
I bought this 3-quart All-Clad stainless-steel casserole specifically for use as a rice cooker. For me, it has been an excellent rice cooker. I prepare three quarts of rice each time, once each week, using a 1-to-3 ratio of medium-grain brown rice and medium-grain white rice. I have followed this routine for six years, and every batch of rice was perfect. Cleaning the sticky rice residue from the casserole requires the use of hot water and a fair amount of scrubbing, with detergent and a stiff-bristled brush. After six years of use, this casserole still looks as pristine as it did when I received it.I also used this casserole for making soup, a couple of times. Once, I used it for cooking dried beans. After seeing how well these other foods cooked, I expect to cook them more often. These are comfort foods, and they are generally inexpensive (and quite appropriate for the current national economic downturn).From a purely economic perspective, the current price of this casserole might be difficult to justify. On the one hand, it is possible to purchase a rice cooker for less than half of the price of this casserole. On the other hand, this casserole offers greater cooking versatility than a rice cooker. Another plus, is that its magnetic-steel exterior layer makes it suitable for cooking directly on induction burners (likely the preferred cooking heat source, for the next several decades).Here is a final note. Despite All-Clad's claims to the contrary, the two loop handles and the lid's handle will become very warm (hot), after 32 minutes of cooking rice. Before moving the heated casserole or its lid, always use pot holders or test the heat of the handles with a quick finger touch (ouch!).

Wife likes it
By K. Edgington
The title says it all. My wife likes it and that is what's important. I feel that All-Clad makes good cookware and their copper core series is by far their best, but the Stainless series is good too. The stainless series is also about half the price of the copper core, making it a great choice for those of us who can't afford the copper core series. Honestly though, an expensive pot will not make you a better cook, just like owning a Mercedes will not make you a better driver. This is a piece of cookware for the cooking enthusiast. I would recommend this product, or any of All-Clad's products, for those people who would like their cookware to last a lifetime.

By M. S. Tedor
I'm a SAHM and I cook for my family 2-3 times a day. I love to cook but I don't have nice things to cook with in my kitchen and my pots and pans are cheap, non-stick kind. Lately I've been serious with my cooking because my husband likes to eat and is enthusiastic about the dishes I feed him, and I aim to please. I need to get a new pot and I figured I'd just get the best cookware I could afford as I'm sure I would be cooking for the rest of my life. I decided to buy the All-Clad 3-Quart Casserole after much research, reading tons of reviews and finding where I could buy it the cheapest. I did not buy it from Amazon because there was a sale at MetroKitchen. We don't have much money to spend on frivolous items but this pot is probably one of the best purchases/investment I've spent out of our meager budget. When it arrived, I attacked the box and opened it immediately. It was in a nice little white All-Clad box, wrapped in a black bag, very shiny and beautiful. I love it at first sight. Since I got it, I've been using it everyday. The 3-quart is the perfect size for us (there is just me, my husband and a 3-year old little girl). I use it to cook soups, rice, stews and I even fry in it. It gets used a lot and has never seen the inside of a storage cabinet. Nothing sticks to it and very easy to clean. A quick swipe of Bar Keeper's Friend will make it as good as new.If you see yourself cooking for your family, like, forever, I would suggest getting an All-Clad because it will be your cooking partner as long as you need it. It is thick, has a substantial weight to it and feels really good quality. It is expensive but I feel happy cooking with my All-Clad - and you can't buy that feeling. I'm certain it improves my cooking a lot because there is a joy in cooking with a pot/cookware you love. I smile every time I pass by it in my little kitchen.If you're reading this review because you need a reassurance that you'll make a wise purchase, don't hesitate because I'm positive you will love this 3-Quart casserole or anything that is from All-Clad. I'm scraping enough to buy my next piece from All-Clad! :)
