What customers say
This stainless clad frying pan earns high praise for its exceptional build quality and superior cooking performance.

Know before you buy
The 5-ply construction features a full aluminum core sandwiched between layers of stainless steel. This design ensures heat spreads evenly across the entire surface of the pan, which helps prevent hot spots and ensures your proteins sear consistently.
No, this pan is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the stainless steel and the handle, we recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water.
While this pan is compatible with gas, electric coil, electric smooth top, halogen, and ceramic surfaces, it is not compatible with induction cooktops.
The curved walls are specifically designed to make flipping food with a spatula easier, while the rolled rim allows for precise, drip-free pouring when you are transferring sauces or pan juices.
The pan features a stay-cool stainless steel handle designed to remain comfortable to the touch during standard stovetop use. However, if you are using the pan in the oven, the handle will become hot and you should use an oven mitt.
The 10-inch pan is ideal for everyday tasks like frying eggs or searing a single portion of meat. The 12-inch pan offers more surface area, making it the better choice for family-sized meals or cooking multiple items at once without overcrowding the pan.
