Common questions

Cooking, care and your home trial.

What can I cook in the 4-quart sauté pan?

Sear meat, sauté vegetables and add stock or sauce for a one-pan dinner. High sides hold liquid, and the included lid supports simmering and braising.

Why choose stainless steel for one-pan meals?

Brown food on the uncoated surface, then deglaze the flavorful fond into a sauce. Five-ply construction spreads heat through the base and sidewalls.

How do I keep it performing?

Preheat gradually, add oil and let food develop a sear before turning. Stainless steel is not a nonstick surface; patience helps proteins release. Let the pan cool before washing.

Will it work on my stovetop?

Yes—gas, electric and induction. The cookware is oven safe to 500°F. When adding a lid or accessory, follow the lower temperature limit of the pieces used together.

What trial and warranty come with it?

A 45-day home trial from delivery, plus a limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects under normal household use. Normal wear is excluded.
