I got this pan and the first use I was not super happy with it. BUT I continued a few more times. Once you use it a couple of times it does not burn and stick like it did in the beginning! I have washed it by hand and I have also put it in the dishwasher and I was happy to see it came out of the dishwasher still looking great. The one downfall is it does scratch easily. I would recommend using silicone utensils to stir anything.
Mainstays 1 quart stainless steel sauce pan is a great little pan with an AWESOME lid! The lid has a lip with holes in it for easy draining and I just adore that feature! I would not expect to find that I a $10 pan but I love it. The handle is all metal so you definitely need a potholder, but we all use them anyway.

Great for everyday use
This is my new favourite pot. It’s small but great to make food for one serving. The lid is my favourite part because it has holes for straining pasta, vegetables and anything else you may need to use it for.

Nice, but beware of hot handle.
I like how the pot got heated up really fast. It is really convenient for making quick meal. I deducted one star because of the handle, it was getting really hot after a period of time
My entire kitchen is stainless steel so this matched perfectly. I tested it out by cooking a sticky mixture of lil smokies, brown sugar and maple syrup. It was very easy to clean. I would recommend. It’s the perfect size for sauce!
The saucepan arrived very well wrapped, in perfect condition. I tested it on Thanksgiving and used it for warming up the gravy. It warmed evenly and the lid made sure that there was no mess. It was easy to clean and I put it in the dishwasher and it came out looking new.
First time own a one quart saucepan.
Great for 1 serving.
I cooked oats, noodle, pasta, beans with this saucepan.
Great materials.
Will recommend this pans to my family and friends.
This sauce pan is the perfect size for heating sauces, soups, or any kind of small amount of liquid or food. It even has a pour spout which is very convenient. I love that this is dishwasher safe, making for quick and easy clean up. It seems to heat and cook evenly.
The day I received the saucepan I put it to use. First, I was very impressed with the quality. For a small saucepan it has a nice weight to it. The biggest surprise was the lid! It has a built in straining feature similar to a high end pasta pot I own.
I used the pot to cook rice and it was truly the perfect size. The pot not only looks good on the stove, it cleaned up easily. I’d highly recommend this little pot!
I own a larger version of this pan already and have used it for years. I got the larger one when I started college and used it to make plenty of Mac and cheese and other pastas. It works great. It is not nonstick so I would not recommend cooking anything you think might stick in this. The smaller one is not the most intuitive size to use, but it is convenient for when you have something that doesn’t require a large pot. If you know someone going off to college or just need a new pan, this is a good cost effective choice.
My absolute favorite part of this pot and lid was that there is a colander built into the lid and a spout in the pot. I don't need to use another colander to drain my pasta!! Food did not stick to this stainless steel pot. The handle does not get hot when you use it to cook. Perfect for steaming veggies!!

Love it!
This pan is SO nice! The stainless steel is very high quality. I love that it has the drain holes on the side for easy straining when cooking pasta. It’s very well made and cooks wonderfully!

Great sauce pan
I got this about a week ago and it has already become my "go to" pan for small servings. I love the glass lid, it's nice to be able to see what I am cooking without taking the lid off. It also has a straining spout for boiling noodles or pasta. Great pan. Highly recommend.
