Know before you buy
The 5-ply construction features an aluminum core sandwiched between layers of high-quality stainless steel. This design allows heat to travel quickly and evenly across the entire pan, preventing hot spots and ensuring consistent results for delicate sauces or long-simmering meals.
Yes, the exterior layer of the pan is made from magnetic stainless steel, making it fully compatible with induction cooktops as well as gas, electric, halogen, and ceramic surfaces.
Absolutely. This pan is oven-safe up to 600°F, allowing you to start a dish on the stovetop and finish it in the oven without needing to transfer ingredients to a different vessel.
No, this specific 3.4-quart casserole pan is sold without a lid. You may want to check if you have a universal lid that fits or if you prefer to use the pan for recipes that do not require covering.
The pan is dishwasher safe, but hand washing with warm, soapy water is recommended to maintain the luster of the brushed satin finish over time. If you encounter stubborn food residue, a stainless steel cleaner or a paste of baking soda and water works effectively.
The pan features double-riveted, ergonomic stainless steel handles designed to stay cool on the stovetop. Their shape provides a secure, balanced grip, which is helpful when moving a heavy, full pan from the stove to the counter.
