Know before you buy
This construction features an aluminum core sandwiched between two layers of 18/10 stainless steel. This design allows heat to spread quickly and evenly across the entire pan, preventing the hot spots that often cause food to burn.
Yes, this saucepan is fully compatible with induction stovetops, as well as gas, electric, glass, ceramic, and halogen ranges.
The saucepan and its lid are oven-safe at temperatures up to 500°F, making it suitable for finishing dishes or keeping food warm.
The riveted stainless steel handles are designed to stay cool during standard stovetop use. However, they will become hot if the pan is placed inside the oven, so you should always use an oven mitt when removing it.
The pan is dishwasher safe for convenient cleanup. To maintain the brushed stainless steel finish and prevent potential water spots, hand washing with mild soap is also a great option.
