What are factory seconds?

He Factory Seconds Event is run by Home and Cook Sales, an authorized reseller of All-Clad and other cookware brands. Items offered for sale (usually) have minor imperfections, such as a scratch on the pan, a misaligned name stamp, or just a dented box. All products on the website list details about the imperfection. You will need to enter an email address to access the sale.

While imperfections may vary, the retailer claims that all cookware will perform as expected. Should any issues arise, nearly all of All-Clad’s Factory Seconds products are backed by All-Clad’s limited lifetime warranty. (Electrical items have a slightly different warranty; see individual product pages for details.) We’ve used a dozen Factory Seconds pots and pans and they’ve all performed exactly as advertised. Just remember that all sales are final.

Essential is one of our favorite pans. You could say it’s, ahem, a kitchen essential. We like that it works well for all kinds of tasks. Its high walls prevent grease from splattering on the countertop, and it can be used as a flat-bottomed wok or even as a substitute for a Dutch oven. It’s also dishwasher safe.

If you tend to splatter your sautéed vegetables out of the pan, a deeper pan is just what you need. This one has a large base for cooking, but high walls to keep ingredients in the pan and off the heat. Plus, the sides are flat, so you can use them as leverage if you’re flipping something with a spatula.

Everyone needs a good, large stainless steel frying pan. It’s not nonstick, so it takes some getting used to (make sure the fat or oil is hot before adding food), but once you get the hang of cooking in stainless steel, you’ll never want a nonstick pan again. Good quality stainless steel provides even heat, with fewer hot spots, and makes cooking easier once you get the hang of it.

All-Clad’s combination of copper, aluminum, and stick-resistant 18/10 stainless steel makes it one of the best heat-conducting pans WIRED reviewer Scott Gilbertson has used (besides cast iron). He uses a smaller version for sauces, boiling potatoes, making bourbon and bacon crusts, and many other tasks. It’s a workhorse in the kitchen. The included lid reduces evaporation (if you want it).

This basket is great for grilling foods like asparagus or fruit. The base is perforated so the smoky, charcoal flavor can flavor the food, without the danger of losing food on the grate as it cooks. I like to take mine car camping for just that purpose.

These small oval-shaped dishes are great for serving side dishes or individual portions, but if you’re like me and don’t have a microwave, they’re also fantastic for heating up leftovers on the stovetop or in the oven.

A pot is a niche item, but sometimes you just need a giant cooking vessel. This one is designed for that purpose. It includes a steaming basket and a strainer, so you can prep multiple ingredients at once. Pro tip: If you ever want to cook seafood at home, this pot is basically perfect.

If you’re in the market for a stock pot, this 8-quart stock pot will be perfect for you. It has the combination of copper, aluminum, and stick-resistant 18/10 stainless steel that we love so much about the D5 collection, and you’ll want excellent heat conduction with the large cooking volume it has.

These measuring cups are very durable. Your grandchildren’s grandchildren can probably get some use out of them. I like that they are deep. When I’m pouring a quarter cup of oil for a recipe, I don’t have to worry about keeping my hand steady as much as with wider, shallower measuring cups. You can also hook a odd sized set for the same price.

It’s almost that time of year. These turkey forks are perfect for your Thanksgiving turkey or any other giant piece of meat you’re roasting during the colder months. They’ll help you keep a good grip on it and reduce the risk of spending six hours smelling delicious food and accidentally dropping it on the floor.

Holiday cookie season is quickly approaching. This bakeware set will help you whip up treats for all of your neighbors, friends, and friends of neighbors. It comes with two cookie sheets and a wire cooling rack, so when you’re baking large batches, everything will have a chance to cool before decorating. I can attest to the nonstick power of the cookie sheets, and that same coating makes them easier to clean.

This little grill is another super handy winter staple. I know some of you may not be from Wisconsin, and therefore may not want to go outside when it’s freezing cold to grill some food. A cast iron grill grate helps create those tasty cooking marks, and this one comes with an acacia wood trivet so you can serve food right off the grill. There are also built-in pouring spouts to drain off any excess grease.
