Know before you buy
While the Infinity Slide coating is designed for durability, it is best to use silicone, nylon, or wooden utensils to maintain the nonstick surface's longevity and prevent scratching.
The saucepan features a specialized lid with integrated straining holes that align with the pour spouts. This design allows you to drain liquids directly from the pan, effectively eliminating the need for a separate colander for pasta or vegetables.
Yes, this saucepan is dishwasher safe. However, to preserve the integrity of the nonstick coating and the exterior finish over time, hand washing with mild soap and a soft sponge is recommended.
This saucepan is oven safe up to 400°F. Ensure you use oven mitts when handling, as the SureGrip handle may become hot during extended oven use.
Yes, the measuring marks are etched directly into the interior of the pan. They will not fade or wash away, providing a reliable way to gauge liquid levels while you cook.
No, this saucepan is constructed from hard-anodized aluminum and does not feature a magnetic stainless steel base required for induction cooking. It is designed for use on gas, electric, and ceramic glass stovetops.
