Know before you buy
Yes. The pans feature a reinforced stainless-steel base specifically designed to work on all stovetops, including induction, gas, and electric.
Absolutely. These frypans are oven safe up to 500°F, allowing you to easily finish dishes like frittatas or seared meats on the stovetop and transfer them directly to the oven.
Yes, they are dishwasher safe. However, to extend the lifespan of the nonstick coating, we recommend hand washing with a soft sponge whenever possible.
While the hard-anodized aluminum body is scratch-resistant, we recommend using silicone, nylon, or wooden utensils to protect the PTFE nonstick coating and keep it performing at its best.
The handles are designed to stay cool on the stovetop under normal cooking conditions. However, they will become hot if used in the oven, so always use an oven mitt when removing them.
