How does this compare to the 11 inch covered deep saut&eacute; pan? I don't have room for both! Thanks!

The 11 inch covered deep saut pan is about 2.9" (7,5 cm) deep, bottom 10,4" (26,5 cm). The 12-inch Fry Pan is about 2.5" (6,5 cm) deep, bottom 9,6" (24,5 cm). I think that the deep saut pan can be used for the same purposes as the fry pan.

This varies from individual to individual. I don't know about you, but I have tried this a few times with the one that I bought and not had any success. My guess is that, for most people, a somewhat deeper pan is required, and it wouldn't hurt for it to be a bit larger in its lateral dimensions.

Get the 10 inch covered fryer. It has straight sides like a saute pan. But it probably a little shy of 10 inches.

Only the rack pan is non-stick. The interior is only 11" wide so if your using it as an oven you might want to go larger. It hold 9" cake pan, 8x8 baking dish, or a meat loaf pan. The temperature dial setting is hard to find. you have to feel for the raised line. Also the two positions are either in the center or at the bottom. If you have anything with a little height, it is either to close to the top or bottom elements.

If you only need 6 inches of cooking surface either the 8 or the 10 inch will work with room to spare. I hope this helps.

the one i have is 10in and 7/8 of an in.. should work perfectly for your 11 in pan.

I didn't get the 11 inch pan but I did get the 16 inch pan and it's 16 3/4 inches. If the 11 inch pan follows the same construction and rolled edges then I'd say it's 11 3/4 inches.

The cooking surface is 6.25" x 6.25". My 8" skillet fits perfectly. Ditto for the 2qt saucepan I use. I don't think anything larger than the footprint of a 10" skillet would be feasible. Anything with the footprint of an 8" skillet or smaller would be the way to go/ideal.

The Mauviel M'steel frying pan is 8" across the top, 7" across the bottom. A previous comment was critical of this pan. It is my favorite pan for sautéing--have conditioned it once and haven't needed to do it again. I have only used it once for an omelet, but that omelet was perfect! I cook with induction so maybe that makes a difference. It's not the prettiest pan but it is a beauty in my estimation!

You're welcome. AND a little more info, it is as deep as my 12" skillet. I actually choose this over my regular skillet if it is not already being used for something else at the same time. It is my favorite.

I just took my 10" frying pan out and had my husband help me measure. It is 2" deep and the sides bow out. We both love out Criculon. Hope this helps.

12" across. This is a fabulous pan for the money. If you purchased an All Clad of this size it would probably run $200. It's great for sauteeing large amounts of food. I always warm up the pan a little before putting oil in it. Then after it's warmed up I add oil, and let that warm up a bit too before adding food. I don't use the highest setting on my burner with any pan as that causes sticking. Medium high heat is enough.

i really can't say on the 12" pan. I have 2 of these pans an 8" one & a 10.5" but both are only 1.5" - 2" deep. From reading the description above & at Amazon sure appears the pan s/b 5-3/4" deep. If you look at the 2 pans I have the description doesn't tell how deep the pans are. I see only the 12.5" pan tells how deep it is. Sorry i can't help. BUT I would be interested in knowing since I was thinking of ordering the 12.5"

It is substantially deeper but the base is also smaller so there is a smaller contact area with the cooktop than with the 11" frying pan.

I'm about to buy an Ecolution Evolve 12.5 inch "grande" pan. I have their smaller pan with no hump in the middle, and I wholeheartedly agree with you on the slight hump, very very frustrating to try to saute in butter or make pancakes or have eggs not slide to the outside edge. This was recommended by America's Test Kitchen, but I can't recommend it (and don't in my review).

The one that I purchased was a 9" pan. I have a 10" also and it stores inside of it when not in use.

More or less. You can cover the 8" skillet with the sauce pan lid, but it is not tight, but I doubt you will need it tight. My wife does this all the time. There is a lid for the skillet with the helper (they call it 3 qt saute with lid. That is piece I would use if I needed covered skillet. The lid for the 8 qt. probably gets very close for the 10" skillet. We have not used it that way. One other answer says no and one says yes. Think they are both right.
