Know before you buy
The ProCore aluminum core is designed for superior heat conductivity, allowing the pan to heat up faster and more evenly than traditional stainless steel. This helps eliminate hot spots, ensuring consistent results whether you are searing meat or simmering a delicate sauce.
Yes. Because the rivets are flush with the interior surface of the pan, there are no crevices for food particles or grease to get trapped. This design also makes it easier to wipe the pan clean and allows for more stable stacking in your cabinets.
Absolutely. The pan features an induction-optimized magnetic stainless steel base, making it fully compatible with induction cooktops as well as gas and electric ranges.
Yes, the pan is oven and broiler safe up to 600ºF. This high heat tolerance allows you to easily transition from stovetop searing to finishing dishes in the oven.
No, the pan is 100% dishwasher safe. The rims are fully encased in stainless steel, which protects the aluminum core from exposure and prevents the edges from fraying or pitting during dishwasher cycles.
While the pan is built with robust tri-ply clad stainless steel for durability and warp resistance, it is balanced to feel substantial without being overly cumbersome. The seamless handle is ergonomically designed to provide a secure, comfortable grip during use.
