Know before you buy
D3 refers to the signature tri-ply bonded construction. It consists of a conductive aluminum core sandwiched between two layers of durable 18/10 stainless steel, which allows for rapid, even heating across the entire pan.
Yes, the D3 stainless steel construction is fully compatible with all stovetops, including induction, gas, electric, and ceramic glass.
Absolutely. The pan is oven and broiler safe up to 600°F, making it versatile enough to finish dishes like gratins or sauces that require high-heat browning.
While the pan is durable, we recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water to maintain the polished finish. For stubborn stuck-on food or discoloration, a stainless steel cleaner like Bar Keepers Friend works effectively to restore the shine.
The long, riveted stainless steel handle is designed to stay cool on the stovetop under normal cooking conditions. However, it will become hot if used in the oven or under the broiler, so always use an oven mitt.
