Sitram Profiserie 4.9 Quart Commercial Stainless Steel Saute Pan Review
This larger-sized sauté pan is from Sitram's stellar line of cookware widely used in professional kitchens around the world. What distinguishes the Profiserie collection is the bottom: extra-thick layers of aluminum bonded to magnetic stainless steel for use on induction burners, an electromagnetic cooking technology. But this exceptional pan with a shining, polished finish performs perfectly on electric or gas burners as well. It heats so uniformly that even over the high heat of sautéing you'll be in perfect control. The smooth, rounded handle lets you keep the pan moving without needing an oven mitt. You'll start out admiring this pan's beauty, but will grow to appreciate its long-lasting quality in and out of oven, broiler, and dishwasher. --Lynne Sampson

Sitram Profiserie 4.9 Quart Commercial Stainless Steel Saute Pan Customer Review
This stainless steel cookware has a thick aluminum disk bonded to the bottom surface. The thick disk provides good, uniform heating, and this piece is large enough that, on a small home burner, scorching at the bottom circumference (where the disk ends) is not a problem. Obviously, some proteins will stick to bare stainless, but that's great for making pan sauces, and I've had no trouble cleaning it by boiling some water in the dirty pan.
The handle is excellent. It is thick, round, and comfortable. On the stovetop, the handle stays cool. After the pan has been in the oven, the handle is of course hot (a fact I frequently forget), but it actually cools off quite quickly. The handle is welded, so there are no rivets to make cleaning difficult. This is a large, heavy pan, though, and I would have appreciated a helper handle on the opposite side.
The construction of the pan is definately commercial/industrial. It feels solid and durable. The edges of the aluminum disk have little or no bevel; that is, they edges of the disk meet the bottom of the pan at about a 90 degree angle. This gives the pan something of an unfinished look, and could lead to the edge of the disk catching on the burner grate as you put it on the burner or move it around. Also, the bottom surface of the aluminum disk is not polished--you can see the machining pattern. This makes it a little hard to move smoothly over the burner grate when sautéing.
I am quite happy with the pan, and will continue to buy other Sitram cookware.
