Vollrath 69212 Tribute 12" Tri-Ply Stainless Steel Fry Pan with TriVent Chrome Plated Handle

These pans are aluminum core wrapped in stainless. They get hot so much faster then the traditional stainless and clean better then the traditional aluminum. Time is money on a saute line and these will save time! I plan on swapping out all my pans over the next few years.

The handle is well attached, the plies are well adhered and well constructed. Conduction is great. However, I have a massive problem with the "bowl" shape. This pan slips/slides/spins/wobbles effortlessly on our stove. When I'm melting a pad of butter and I touch the butter with a turner, the whole pan rotates in a complete circle. I tried contacting Vollrath customer service and was able to send pictures to a representative, but did not receive a follow-up message whether this would result in a warranty claim or if I'm stuck with a highly unusable pan. I've never used a pan before that required a hand holding the handle 100% of the time it's in use, until I used this pan. This "bowl" shape does NOT straighten out with heat. It is present at all temperatures.

This stainless steel pan seems very well built. As far as I can tell, there are none/minimal hot spots, providing a beautiful even sear. Make sure it’s heated up correctly to make it essentially “non stick” by using the water droplet test!

The 10 inch vollrath tribute fry pan is a great addition to my kitchen. It’s perfect for searing chicken or other foods. You can also throw it in the oven to bake. It evenly distributes heat, doesn’t burn food, and is easy to clean!

Good heavy duty stainless steel sauce pan. Send durable and heavy weight, but the handle seems a bit cumbersome for the design as how id goes underneath.

probably the best sautee pan out there these days. the heat is very evenly distributed through out the whole pan. just wash and use as many times you need to. great product all around!!!

what a heavyweight pan! it weigh as much as my 5-ply copper core. This Vollrath is 3 later but you got thicker aluminum later, which results in more even heat distribution. The only thing I don't like about this pan is the handle, and the there are some rough edges around the rim. The finish is not as great as All-Clad stainless pan

The Vollrath Tribute 14” Natural Finish Fry Pan is a great quality Fry Pan. The handle is firmly attached and it heats evenly. Nothing sticks to the bottom and it is easy to clean. The price is phenomenal! This is great for both residential and commercial use.

Just perfect small fry pan for any use! Great quality, easy to work with and great price. You will just love it! Great for anyone!

This pan is expensive but worth it. It holds up like none other and cooks evenly and thoroughly. I wish I could invest in an entire set.

Just received this pan and it is amazing. It is beautiful, heavy and will hopefully be a part of our kitchen for many years to come. These pans are not non-stick so they do require proper heating and proper use of fats. I always clean by hand and I do it right after I finish using it. This keeps anything from having time to set up on the pan's surface.

This is my new favorite pan, it conducts heat very well and cleans up easily. The handle gets a bit hot after cooking for a while but not too hot.

This is a well-made pan. We ordered it for our church kitchen and have already used it. It's a great size with a sturdy handle.

I originally bought a Tri Ply pan as a cheaper version of the All Clad pan. I was pretty happy with it. But in the back of my mind, I always wondered how much better an all clad could be. After some more research, I came across the Vollrath Tribute series. It was tested and proven to hold heat better, and have more even heat dispersion then the Allclad. (to my understanding at least....) I took a gamble on a much lower priced pan, and this gamble payed off. This pan is incredible. It's pretty heavy, and it holds an even heat, and sears every bit as good as a cast iron pan. The only complaint, the handle does get hot. Not so hot you cant hold it, but it is a bit uncomfortable. Also the shape of the handle is fairly harsh on your hand. All complaints aside....I love this pan. I've had nicer handles... but this pan cooks well! I'll take the high performance any day even if it includes some slight ergonomic glitches.

Great pan. Love the fact that it is made in the states. Feels like it will last forever. Use it mostly for heating up small amounts of meat. Purchased the 12in also, and soon the 10in. 10/10 for Vollrath Trubute fry pans.

This was my first purchase and first time using a stainless steel pan. I was a little nervous at first using it, but I'd read plenty on how to properly heat the pan and add the oil just before your ingredients go in. The first thing I cooked was a simple fried egg, and I couldn't have been happier to see the egg sliding around the pan. The handle does get a little warm if you've been using the pan for awhile, but it both heats and cools really quickly. After using this, I purchased the 12" skillet of the same brand to round out my set.
