FAQs
Can I use this set on an induction cooktop?
Yes, the heavy-gauge steel core makes this set fully compatible with all induction, gas, and electric cooktops.
Is it safe to put the tempered glass lids in the oven?
Yes, both the pots and the tempered glass lids are oven-safe up to 220°C.
Are these pots non-stick?
While the enamel surface is naturally smooth and resistant to sticking, it is not a traditional chemical-based non-stick coating and may require a small amount of oil for certain foods.
What should I do if the enamel chips?
If the enamel chips, the piece may still be functional, but be careful of sharp edges. Avoid using the piece if the chip is inside the cooking surface where food will touch.
What is included in the 10-piece set?
The set includes 20cm and 24cm casseroles with lids, 16cm and 18cm saucepans with lids, a whisk, and a serving spoon.
Troubleshooting
Food is sticking to the surface
Ensure the pan is adequately preheated before adding ingredients and use a small amount of oil or butter. Avoid using high heat settings.
Visible discoloration inside the pot
Soak the pan in warm water with a mild detergent and gently scrub. For stubborn stains, a paste of baking soda and water can be used.
Handles feel loose
Check the rivets or screws connecting the handle to the body and tighten them with a screwdriver if they have loosened over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before your first use, wash all pieces in warm, soapy water to remove any manufacturing residues. This set is fully compatible with induction, gas, and electric cooktops. To maintain the life of your enamel, avoid using metal utensils that might scratch or chip the coating; silicone or wooden tools are recommended. While the set is dishwasher safe, hand washing with a soft sponge is the best way to maintain the exterior luster and prevent accidental chips in the dishwasher. If you use the set in the oven, ensure the temperature does not exceed 220°C. When storing, place a protective cloth or paper towel between pans if stacking to prevent abrasion.
