Know before you buy

No, this set is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the finish and performance of the stainless steel, we recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water.
The pieces in this set are oven and broiler safe up to 600°F, making them versatile for finishing dishes or keeping food warm.
The tri-ply construction features an aluminum core sandwiched between two layers of stainless steel. This design ensures rapid, even heat distribution across the entire pan, eliminating hot spots that can cause uneven cooking.
No, the 18/10 stainless steel cooking surface is non-reactive, meaning it will not impart a metallic taste to your ingredients, even when cooking acidic foods like tomato sauce.
