Know before you buy
The five-ply construction alternates layers of stainless steel and aluminum to eliminate hot spots. This provides consistent, even heat distribution across the entire pan, which is essential for achieving a perfect sear or maintaining a steady simmer.
Yes, the D5 series is fully compatible with all stovetops, including induction. The magnetic stainless steel exterior ensures it reacts efficiently with induction elements.
No, this set is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the brushed stainless steel finish and the integrity of the bonded layers, we recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water.
The D5 set is oven and broiler safe up to 600°F. This high heat tolerance allows you to start a dish on the stovetop and finish it in the oven or under the broiler without switching pans.
Yes, the pans feature oversized, double-riveted handles designed for a secure and balanced grip. While they are sturdy, they are made of stainless steel, so they will get hot on the stovetop and require an oven mitt.
The set includes 8-inch, 10-inch, and 12-inch fry pans, 1.5-quart and 3-quart sauce pans with lids, a 3-quart sauté pan with lid, and an 8-quart stockpot with lid.
