Pros & Cons
Pros
The all-clad d5 is actually 3 stainless steel layers clad with 2 aluminum layers between them. It works like a charm on our convection stove-top. All clad products are the high bar others try to clear.
You know if it breaks go buy another one mentality. They are still flawless. It's pricey but well-worth collecting and should last a life-time. A lot heavier than my others, must be the 5 ply.
Quart d5 takes the place of the much heavier le creuset. Also works with a 12 quart cuisinart.
It boils wonderfully fast. Reaches temperature quickly and maintains a precise simmer. The d5 does seems to be slightly better at heat evenness across the pan.
Easy to clean. Handcrafted in the u.

Con'si got a blemished pot for half the price of the retail pot, i still have not found the blemish.
Less than i paid 2 years ago at macys with all sorts of discounts.

Search several sites, and stores locally with hardly any that noted an 8 quart size - found the size right away at amazon and a... Read More
Packaging/appearance
Sticks out in our brushed collection as the shiny one!
Competitiveness
I've owned other all-clad product lines, and this is definitely nicer than all the others i've owned.
5 lecruset and a 12 quart cuisinart.
After it became available i began getting the d5 series over the standard stainless series because i like the d5's flanged lip ... Read More
However, the d5 is slightly heavier and thicker, with more aluminum, and should work even better that the basic stainless model.
