"Copper or not"
I bought tne 18cm saucier pan on a deal as a cheaper way of trying a copper pan against the triple ply stainless steel pans that I use presently.Having now used the pan a few times I believe it does boil water as quickly as s/s using a lower gas setting. An important point given the high price of fuel and should over the years help to offset the initial pricey outlay.Its best point though, when making sauces it did not burn the butter. Something I have found easly done with s/s if you take your eye off it for one minute.

"Can't go wrong!"
Falk Culinair's Try Me Piece was my introduction into the world of copper cookware and it wasn't my last. This a versatile piece in which I cook things like oatmeal, eggs (boiled/scrambled/fried/poached), steamed rice, pasta, bechamel-based sauces, tomato based-sauces and so on. It heats up and cools quickly giving you excellent control over whatever you cook. Soaking it after use makes it a breeze to clean. Even after I accidentally left the remnants of a bechamel on a low heat for an hour, it only took a soak to help lift off the browned sauce.

"Christmas gift"
Clear website and competent administration for a "reasuringly expensive" 18 cm saucier pan. Fast delivery and safely packaged, the pan arrived as advertised and made a grand Christmas gift. We have been using tinned copper pans for many years but it is now getting hard to have them re-tinned in the UK. You can never find a tinker when you need one! The idea of a stainless steel lining was not entirely appealing but I love cooking with copper - it was a reasonable compromise. I looked at Mauviel and various other brands. The Mauviel looked good but the low maintenance copper finish on the Falk finally decided me and I have no regrets - I will report back in a few decades on durability.

"Should have had one years ago!"
This 18 cms saucier is a little beauty and is now a firm friend in my kitchen, 6 weeks old and getting nicely seasoned. Produces a perfect sauce, beautifully cooked with no rapid boiling patches or sticking, and cleans easily too. I have 'uhmmed and aahhed' for years over the benefits of copper pans - but no more - I'm well and truly converted. P.S. does a mean porridge as well!

"Great pan"
I have been really impressed with this pan. It has a more solid feel than other copper pans I have used. The metal doesn't discolor as easily either. This particular pan is great for the home cook making sauces, perfect size, and easy to stir with the rounded bottom. Highly recommend the pan, falk and falkculinair.co.uk

"a new convert"
following much on line research amongst competing copper pan manufacturers I decided upon Falk based upon its brushed copper finish and also the curved lip of the pan. I was not disappointed.After much caressing and enjoyment of its physique I finally put it to the test in making a crème anglaise for my sherry trifle. It cooked perfectly,evenly and quickly, all essential attributes at Xmas. It also poured without mess and spillage. So yes I have become a convert. The delivery was also impressive but I am not supposed to mention that!

"The 18 cm saucier Pan"
It was a "try me" item,so I was worried it might be too small for anything but sauces.I was pleasantly surprised !It became one of my favorite pans used daily for cooking small (2-3 portions ) dishes and similar tasks.Also great looking and not too heavy for my wife to handle-unlike several other bigger FALK pieces we own

"Loved this!"
My first copper pan, and it's perfect. Not only a great size for cooking for two, but no more hotspots! I've been stuck using electric burners instead of my preferred gas, and the even heat distribution has meant that I can quickly simulate changing temperature by moving the pan partway off the burner, without getting unevenly cooked food. Will definitely be purchasing more copper cookware.

"I LOVE this pan"
I have owned a complete set of French copper pans (stainless-steel lined) of many sizes, all except a saucier....when I saw the special offer for Falk on their saucier, I bought it. I am absolutely thrilled with this pan- it cooks like a dream, and does NOT need polishing after every use like my French pots! Now I want to replace all my old pans with Falk!
