I have a single all clad fry pan and I hate it. Mostly because of the handle. It downright hurts to pick that pan up by the handle, even when the pan is empty. I can't stand the pan solely for the handle design.
I ended up buying a set of stainless steel pots and pans from a kitchen supply place. The bottoms are heavy and some sort of sandwich of metals but I don't know what. The surface of the cookware is stainless steel and the handles are stainless steel but they are rounded on all sides so it is easy to pick up and doesn't hurt my hand. Unfortunately I bought this cookware on closeout and I have no idea what brand they are. I also have two pieces of Le Crueset which are great for braising and slow cooking. And I wouldn't be without my cast iron skillet. I won't use anything else for fried chicken or fajitas. But cast iron is heavy.
