Know before you buy
The five-ply bonded construction alternates layers of stainless steel and aluminum to provide even heat distribution across the entire pan. This prevents hot spots and ensures the cookware remains warp-resistant even under high heat.
Yes, the D5 series is fully compatible with all stovetops, including induction, gas, electric, and ceramic surfaces.
No, these pans are not dishwasher safe. To maintain the finish and performance of the stainless steel, we recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water.
The D5 cookware set is oven and broiler safe up to 600°F (315°C), allowing you to easily transition from stovetop searing to oven finishing.
The stainless steel handles are designed to stay cool on the stovetop, though they will get hot if used in the oven or under the broiler. Always use oven mitts when removing the pans from the oven.
The flared rims are designed for drip-free pouring, allowing you to transfer sauces, liquids, or pan juices cleanly without making a mess on your stovetop or counter.
