It doesn't seem any more expensive than the Calphalon we've purchased in the past...

gramp bought gran a $350 cook set 20 years ago
they eat the early bird special at the diner every night now because its a bitch cooking for 2. Same way for cast Iron pots. Well maintained pots and pans at a fraction of the cost of new. Estate sales are good. We are talking about a holder of cooking food that heats evenly, not a fucking picasso :-)
thanx,
bill

Well, here's the thing:
Time to find it online and click the button: an hour.
Time to comb dozens of garage sales to find something that might be suitable, but with unknown construction, utility, and provenance: ...
Free time I or my wife have to do either of these: not much at all.

Yes, that's the stuff.
All-Clad has several lines including higher priced ones with copper layers and slightly lower priced ones with aluminum exteriors, but the three ply aluminum core line is what I've used in both All-Clad and Cuisinart and have no performance complaints with either brand.
Again, full wrap core is best for sauté pans and essential for smaller saucepans, but for 5 quart and larger stock pots the slab bottom is fine, actually better for some uses because the aluminum layer is much thicker preventing hot spots if you're using only the center flame for simmering.

Strangely . . .
Copper made into a pipe costs a few bucks for a 10 foot length.
About the same amount of copper stamped into the shape of a sauce pan costs hundreds of dollars.
