Know before you buy
This construction features a core of conductive aluminum sandwiched between two layers of durable stainless steel. Because the metal extends all the way to the rim, the pan heats evenly across the bottom and up the sides, preventing hot spots and ensuring consistent results.
Yes, the D3 Stainless set is fully compatible with all stovetops, including induction, gas, electric, and ceramic glass.
No, this set is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the polished finish and performance of the stainless steel, we recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water.
These pieces are oven and broiler safe up to 600°F, allowing you to easily transition from stovetop searing to oven finishing.
The stainless steel handles are designed to stay cool on the stovetop under normal cooking conditions. However, they will become hot if used in the oven or under the broiler, so always use oven mitts.
The 18/10 stainless steel surface is non-reactive, meaning it won't impart a metallic taste to your food or react with acidic ingredients like tomatoes or wine. It is also the ideal material for achieving a professional-grade sear on proteins.
