Product Description
The All-Clad Ltd 12" Nonstick Omelette Pan is a versatile pan for everything from frying eggs to sauteing chicken. An extra-thick anodized aluminum exterior is bonded to distribute heat evenly. The Excalibur nonstick interior makes cooking a breeze. Oven safe to 400. Lifetime warranty.

Amazon.com Review
Distinguished among All-Clad's renowned cookware collections by its stylish, charcoal black, hard anodized-aluminum exterior, the LTD line provides serious and professional cooks with all the virtues that make All-Clad's worldwide reputation unsurpassed. Key to its high performance is a three-ply, bonded construction. Sandwiched between the exterior and the interior lies a thick core of pure aluminum that spreads heat evenly across the bottoms of pots and pans and all the way up the sides. The striking exterior resists scratching, chipping, and peeling. Certain pieces, like this one, have two interior layers, one of 18/10 stainless steel and the other of scratch-resistant, professional-grade nonstick bonded to the steel.

This classic slope-sided fry pan makes clear why All-Clad's LTD cookware is so popular among contemporary cooks. It's 12 inches in diameter and 2 inches deep, large enough for a professional kitchen but fully functional in a home kitchen. Its polished 18/10 stainless-steel handle is riveted to the pan for strength, grooved on the top and rounded on the bottom for comfort, and holed in the end for hanging on a hook or peg. The long handle stays cool on the stovetop but won't be harmed by an oven's heat. LTD cookware carries a lifetime warranty against defects and should be hand washed. --Fred Brack

All-Clad is the best overall. February 12, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

The ongoing debate over cookware at my house is over: All-Clad is the best cookware overall and is worth the extra money. Our coppers tarnish and require retinning. Our encapsulated disk cookware (Reverere and Farberware) suffer from loose and broken plastic handles and too-small disks which limit the cooking area of the fry pans. The biggest debate was between Calphalon and All-Clad LTD nonstick models. My wife really liked the lighter weight of Calphalon's Commercial Nonstick line. After living for both for several years, All-Clad has shown its overall superiority in the following ways:
1) Durability. The non-stick finish All-Clad uses wears like iron. The Calphalon's finish shows many more scratches and blisters.
2) Denser anodized finish. The All-Clad LTD finish is much denser and more even that that on Calphalon. This makes it more attractive and easier to clean. The LTD stuff does look great on a rack mixed with Calphalon too. It's tough to beat black aesthetically.
3) Greater heat sensitivity. You actually cook with the stove set to a lower temperature with All-Clad. It appears to register changes more quickly. Both types of pan are good in this reguard - but the All-Clad is noticeably better.

As a fry pan, the All-Clad LTD 12" fry pan hits on all cylinders. It's big enough for a 4 egg omlette, or most of pound of bacon. It's battleship built, well balanced, even heating with great sensitivity. The handle stays cool and is angled so that you can lift the heavy contents without undue strain on your wrist. The nonstick finish is effective and tough as nails. The LTD finish is durable and very attractive. It matches well with other anodized aluminum cookware - and you can clean it very effectively with Ajax or Comet and a 3M scrubby. Just make a nice paste and power away the burnt on grease in moments leaving the original matte anthracite finish. Don't worry about scratches - the anodized finish is far harder than the cleaner - only the dirt is stripped away. It looks great and is really durable. Just remember than you cannot dishwash any anodized aluminum cookware. The phosphates will oxidized the finish and leave it chalky and pale (and ruined).

Great item to add to your collection February 7, 2007
Was very please with my 8-inch nonstick All Clad fry pan. It has been a great addition to my other All Clad pans. I needed a non-stick pan to make a basic fried egg, grilled cheese sandwich, etc., and this was just the pan. It's a must have and I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

Cooks great but spend all your free time scrubbing the exterior to keep nice looking November 25, 2006
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

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.

Best non-stick I've ever had August 17, 2006
We've had this for almost two years- and it gets used on average 2-3 times per week. Its still in fantastic shape. No scratches/flaking of surface, in spite of occasional abuse from visiting "chefs" using metal utensils and too-high heat.

Primarily cook eggs, sometimes for sauteeing fish. Non-stick is excellent.

Definitely worth the money- I'd had inexpensive non-sticks before, and they never lasted for long, no matter how careful we were.

Nonstick Surface Comes Off - Don't waste your money! April 27, 2006
6 out of 7 found this review helpful

You would think that for nearly $100, this pan would be indescructable - not so! We've had this pan for under 2 years, and first the surface lost its non-stick characteristics. Then, it started to peel off - first on the outside top edges of the pan. We NEVER used harsh cleaning products or rough sponges, yet the surface just came off! And don't think you can just contact All-Clad for a replacement under warranty - I've tried to get in touch with them twice and they've never responded back to me. Save your money and buy a cheaper pan - even if you have to buy a new one every year, you'll still make out in the end.
