Frieling USA A32532 Sitram Catering Saucier Pan 3.35 Quart Review
French manufacturer Sitram produces commercial-grade stainless-steel cookware for restaurant, hotel, and institutional kitchens worldwide. Serious home cooks also use this cookware to advantage. On Profiserie pot and pan bottoms, an aluminum disc sheathed in steel conducts heat rapidly and uniformly. Sitram cookware goes safely into ovens and under broilers. Designed to withstand rough treatment, its bright, shiny appearance lasts indefinitely. Bottoms don't warp. It doesn't stain and resists corrosion. And with no inside rivets to clean around, it scrubs up hygienically and painlessly. For cooks who value heavy, bang-around durability over fancy design, this cookware is for you.
Use this versatile pan--7.9 inches (20 cm) in diameter--to cook sauces, vegetables, soup, or rice or to heat liquids. Covered, it steams clams or mussels. At only 4 inches high, it's ideal for rapidly reducing sauces and its gently rounded sides facilitate stirring. In the oven (to 500 degrees F) or on top of the stove and covered, it functions as a casserole to stew or braise meats, poultry, seafood, or vegetables. Its long (8-1/4 inches), hollow-oval, heat-resistant handle--notched on the end for easy hanging--keeps hands away from the heat. Pair with the Profiserie 7.9-inch stainless-steel lid or the Inox 7.9-inch Commercial stainless-steel lid. --Fred Brack

Frieling USA A32532 Sitram Catering Saucier Pan 3.35 Quart Customer Review
I checked the Sitram website for Profiserie cookware (which is the same as "Professional"; the alternate name is chosen only by retailer or distributor, and elsewhere on Amazon the same line is called Profiserie)
http://66.102.7.104/search?q=cache:dpjBfLIEouAJ:www.sitramcookware.com/profiserie_hu.htm+Sitram+20041&hl=en&lr=lang_en
the picture Amazon shows is for a 'saucier pan'(evasee), Sitram numer 27672, 2.1 quart, not the 3.3 qt. sauce pan, Sitram 20041. They are the same size rim diameter, and use the same lid.
I own the next size smaller saucepan in this series, and it is sturdy, heats quickly and evenly, has a very stay-cool tubular handle (I have an electric coil range), is happy in the dishwasher, and pours easily without dripping. I wonder if the spot-welded handle will ever come off, but if it does, it has a lifetime guarantee. I have a bunch of other Sitram Profiserie pans that also work well. I hate electric coil cooktops, but these work well on mine. If i get an induction top some day, they will work well on that too (as they do for friends of mine on theirs)
If you don't want to buy copper or copper sandwich disc bottom pots, and don't need nonstick, I think this is as good as you can get in a saucepan from a functional point of view. I own original Calphalon, French tinned copper, Anolon non-stick, and Scanpan non-stick, for comparison. None (except the copper) heat quicker or more evenly, and the Sitram is more convenient.
