The all clad copper core 7 piece cookware set from the All Clad Copper Core line of cookware is described by professional and amateur chefs as some of the best cookware you can buy. Easy to clean as stainless steel but still offers the even heat cooking of copper makes it the top of All Clad's product line.

The all clad copper core 7 piece cookware set features a copper layer (visible as a copper band) sandwiched between the stainless steel exterior and the aluminum interior. Copper is the best heat conductor, but is not as durable as stainless steel or as light as aluminum. By using a copper core between the other metals, you get the best of all worlds.

From inside to outside, the five-ply configuration features a stainless steel cooking surface, copper core for optimal heat conduction, aluminum layer to decrease weight, one more layer of aluminum, and lastly a stainless steel exterior with stick-resistant coating. Extended handles are made to remain cool for gripping with comfort, and the curled rims allow for dripless pouring. Lids for the all clad copper core 7 piece cookware set also fit very securely.

The copper core has an even and brisk heating pattern. With this cookware set even boiling water is truly enjoyable. While the stainless steel surface for cooking is not as truly non-stick as teflon, with employment of proper cooking techniques the food will not stick to the surface at all.

The best feature of the entire line would have to be hands down the ease-of-cleaning. To clean all that is requires is a short soak in warm, soapy water, then with a plastic brush scrub briefly, this will work even after frying at high heat. Simply dry with a towel to avoid those pesky water spots. If a bright shine is what you desire, special cleaners and polishers can be used to achieve just that. Tarnishing can be avoided by polishing the visible copper band.

You can buy other groupings and single pieces belonging to the All Clad copper core collection too. Besides the all clad copper core 7 piece cookware set which is very much in demand, you can also find a set made up of 14 items and one set of 10 as well. There is also an array of solo cooking utensils, like the versatile all clad copper core 10 inch fry pan.
