Copper cookware at Cost Plus World Market.

Angelus2013 | Jul 25, 201508:35 PM     12

Anyone see this at their website? The product description claims that it's 2mm of professionally made copper with a stainless steel interior. That's fine and all, but the price is surprisingly low. The 9.5" skillet costs only $60. I'm a bit suspicious on that. Unless it's on ebay, I've never seen 2mm bimetal copper pans less than $100. Even then it's a rarity and is mostly tin lined copper or very worn out stainless lined copper by Williams-Sonoma, or both. Besides the price, other reasons why I'm suspicious is that the cast iron handle looks uncomfortably thin, the aerial view does not show copper on the edges of the pan like most copper pans without unrolled lips, and finally their product description says to use low heat. I've never seen copper cookware advertised to be used on heats below medium. This makes me think that it's tri-ply copper like the Calphalon tri-ply pans. Half of a millimeter of copper + 1mm of aluminum + 0.5mm of stainless steel. But the market seems to actually offer affordably priced products. Anyone have any experience with this store or even bought these pans from them?
