Know before you buy
The Toughened Nonstick PRO surface is designed for everyday cooking, including searing and sautéing. While it handles high heat well, it is best to avoid using extremely high settings, as this can shorten the lifespan of the nonstick coating.
While the surface is engineered for durability, it is recommended to use silicone, wood, or nylon utensils to maintain the integrity of the nonstick coating over time. Metal utensils can scratch or damage the surface, which may affect food release.
No, this specific model is not compatible with induction cooktops. It is designed for use on gas, electric coil, electric smooth top, halogen, and ceramic heat sources.
The ergonomic stainless steel handle is designed to stay cool on the stovetop during normal cooking conditions. However, it will become hot if used in the oven, so you should always use an oven mitt or towel when handling it.
Yes, the pan is dishwasher safe, making cleanup very convenient. However, hand washing with a soft sponge and mild detergent is recommended to preserve the nonstick surface for as long as possible.
The extra depth provides more volume, which helps prevent splattering when frying and allows you to cook larger batches of food or stir-fry ingredients without them spilling over the sides.
