Know before you buy
Yes, the 5-ply stainless steel construction is fully compatible with all cooktop surfaces, including induction, gas, electric, and ceramic.
The pan is oven and grill safe up to 500°F. While the nonstick surface is durable, we recommend using medium heat for most stovetop cooking to preserve the longevity of the coating.
The pan features an ergonomic stay-cool stainless steel handle designed to dissipate heat, allowing you to handle the pan comfortably on the stovetop without a mitt.
Yes, this pan is dishwasher safe. However, to maintain the integrity of the nonstick coating over time, hand washing with a soft sponge is generally recommended.
No, this specific model does not include a lid. You may need to purchase a universal 10-inch lid separately if you require one for steaming or simmering.
The 5-ply construction consists of multiple layers of stainless steel that extend through the base and up the sides of the pan. This design ensures rapid, uniform heat distribution, which helps prevent hot spots and provides more consistent cooking results.
