Overview
Not a nonstick pan, this is polished stainless steel with a high-shine exterior, an induction base and a lid. Measuring marks inside let you gauge liquids without a cup, and the handles are shaped for a secure grip.
The reason to buy is an everyday pan that works on any hob and goes from stove to oven. The limit is mixed information on handles and washing, since the listing gives both wood and blue handles.
Who it's for
Cooks on induction or any other hob who simmer small batches will use the measuring marks and lid. Buyers who dislike scrubbing stainless steel should pick a coated pan.
Pros and cons
- Works on all cooktops
- Oven safe to a stated limit
- Measuring marks inside
- Stainless steel without coating
- Dishwasher advice conflicts
- Handle material differs in listing
- Food can stick without oil
- Lid material not detailed
Performance notes
A stainless steel induction base spreads heat evenly and reduces hot spots, per the listing. The lid traps heat and moisture for simmering. Bare stainless steel needs oil or liquid to avoid sticking, since there is no coating.
