SKH .. PART 2 OF 2 .. Cuisinart 77-17N - is set 18/10? This is an enlightening article. Copyright © 2013-2016 CenturyLife.Org ... Link: https://www.centurylife.org/in-depth-product-review-cuisinart-multiclad-pro-aka-mcp-or-multiclad-professional-tri-ply-professional-stainless-steel-12-inch-skillet-30-cm-frying-pan/ ----------------- Sometime around 2010 Cuisinart stopped advertising Multiclad Pro (MCP) as SAE 304 (18/8 or 18/10 stainless steel; the 18 refers to 18% chromium, and the 8-10% refers to 8-10% nickel). Amazon still hasn’t updated their product description; it still says 18/10 there. I contacted Cuisinart for clarification, but they wouldn’t tell me exactly what stainless grade they use now. Note 1: As an aside, many companies that advertise 18/10 stainless use something more like 18/8.3 stainless and round way up to 18/10. Note 2: 18/8 or 18/10 stainless is strong and rust-resistant, which is why high-end cookware usually uses it Note 3: we can be fairly confident that Cuisinart is using at least SAE 202/204 (18/4) stainless in Multiclad Pro, since MCP is Cuisinart’s highest-end product line, and the interior of MCP is not strongly magnetic Note 4: almost all stainless steel cookware made today (including All-Clad -and- Cuisinart Multiclad Pro) is made with a bottom-most layer of SAE 400-series (18/0) stainless in order to be induction-compatible. That’s because the addition of small amounts of nickel in stainless makes the steel less magnetic, so you can’t use 18/4, or 18/8, or 18/10 stainless on the bottom and still be induction-compatible Note 5: 18/0 is still fairly rust-resistant–it survives dishwashers without rusting–but try to avoid letting your stainless pots sit in puddles of water for days on end. Note 6: note that the rivets on Cuisinart MCP have stainless interior caps, but the exterior is aluminum, so if you clean the rivets a lot (especially if you run MCP through the dishwasher a lot), the outside part of the rivets will look less shiny. The dullness is purely cosmetic. ========================================= 42 reviews (Positive, Style Name: Cookware Set|Size: 17-Piece) .. 4 or 5 star.

Can they really be used on an induction stovetop? I had a set that looked similar a few years ago, Cuisinart said it would work on induction, but -no

Yes, they work on induction stoves.

The Cuisinart Chef's Classic line is not triply. It has an aluminum core in the base, but the sides are just stainless steel.

how does it fare for cooking bacon in it?

It works beautifully! Even cooking surface and cleans up easily. Highly recommend it!!
