Is this stainless steel 3-ply, or only one layer?

I did not notice when we used it for first time. Unfortunately, it is not here right now but my impression is that it is fairly sturdy. Will take a few more years to really evaluate it. I did manage to find their website and it mentions layered construction. Roast lists at $299. I believe I paid $175 last year on Amazon but it was just after Thanksgiving.

It did not say on package that it was stainless, I think it is aluminum, not positive though. We have used quiet often. Wife says it is very nice compared to the other non stick surface.

The outside plastic overwrap says 208 1-ply sheets per roll. But they must be pretty thick single ply; it's not thin or harsh. The manufacturer has changed the name over the years, adding Ripples and such nonsense, but I think their 2-ply version has always had "Ultra" in its name and featured purple in the package design. Our family has always liked the non-Ultra variety.

It's a single layer, but the mesh is woven pretty tight so you don't have to worry about the grease splattering1

Stamped on the bottom of the item, "Surgical Stainless Steel, Even Heating, Multi-Ply, 12-Element"

This item is NOT tri-ply. The made in China pasta cookers in both sizes are not clad. You would have to get an All-Clad stockpot (made in USA models) and an insert to have a tri-ply outer pot.

To answer your question: the bottom of the pan states T304 Stainless, 5 ply. It is stainless steel and of my favorite pans to use for cooking.

When its made out of stainless steel, its stainless steel. The bottom is 3 ply in order to conduct heat evenly.

Yes, I have one. It is not identical to the tri-ply set but fits the 4qt tri-ply saucepan well.

I think they are single layer, but the way they are woven they look like they could be double. They are very sturdy and fine mesh almost like a window screen but more solid. I'm glad I bought mine. I was concerned about the small one, because it is so small, but I actually use it a lot.

America's Test Kitchen also recommended the All-Clad non-stick stainless steel tri-ply. All-Clad pan is very well made, but is more expensive.

This is a 3 ply construction. Inserts 1 ply. 18/10 stainless steel interior and exterior with aluminum core. I think it is ~1/4". Has a lip so hard to measure.

There is another Emerilware model: E8849964 that is advertised as 18/10 Stainless, but not noted as Tri-ply. It is about the same physical size and form-factor, but is also more costly. As with most brands there are several models, so just be aware.

It is one ply but very thick. It is very warm and feels so soft. I bought one for my daughter for Christmas and then just now bought another for me after having seen hers. I love the color and it is so soft and warm. My seven year old grand daughter curls up in it and is asleep in no time. Love this blanket. I give it five stars.

All I know is that it is the best pan of it's kind I have ever used. We've had them for several months and they perform flawlessly. Check manufacturers website about the 3 ply specification.

Mine is a heavy fabric. I don't know the difference between single and double ply.

Sorry, I don't know. I will say that the stainless steel version is far superior to the old plastic coated ones.
