Is this saucepan induction hob compatible?
Yes, the Ninja ZEROSTICK Stainless Steel 16cm Saucepan is fully compatible with all hob types, including induction cooktops.
Can I use metal utensils with this pan?
While ZEROSTICK is very durable, it is recommended to use silicone, wooden, or plastic utensils to help maintain the integrity and longevity of the non-stick coating. Avoid sharp metal objects.
Is the saucepan oven safe?
Yes, the stainless steel construction and cast stainless steel handle mean this saucepan is oven safe. (Consult your product manual for specific temperature limits).
How do I clean the ZEROSTICK saucepan?
Allow the pan to cool completely before cleaning. Hand washing in warm, soapy water with a soft sponge or cloth is recommended for optimal longevity. Rinse thoroughly and dry immediately. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
Does this saucepan come with a warranty?

What kind of foods is this 16cm saucepan best for?
The 16cm saucepan is ideal for cooking smaller portions, such as simmering sauces, boiling eggs, heating milk or soup, cooking single servings of grains, or melting butter/chocolate.
Troubleshooting
Food is sticking to the pan.
Ensure the pan is adequately preheated on low to medium heat before adding ingredients. While ZEROSTICK is highly non-stick, a small amount of oil or butter can enhance performance, especially for certain foods. Avoid excessively high heat, which can cause food to burn and stick.
Handles get hot during cooking.
Cast stainless steel handles can heat up, especially during extended cooking times or when used in the oven. Always use oven mitts or a pot holder when handling a hot saucepan.
Pan wobbles or doesn't sit flat on the hob.
Ensure the hob surface is clean and flat. Minor warping can occur from extreme temperature changes (thermal shock), so always allow the pan to cool completely before washing. This saucepan is designed for stability on flat cooking surfaces.

Cleaning: Allow the pan to cool completely before washing. While ZEROSTICK is highly durable, hand washing in warm, soapy water with a soft sponge or cloth is recommended for optimal longevity. Rinse and dry immediately.
Stubborn Residue: For stubborn food residue, soak the pan in warm, soapy water for a few minutes before cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or scouring pads.
