MasterClass Aluminium Enamel 18cm Non Stick Saucepan, Steel, Black

It’s slightly larger than the milk pan it replaces, but as a result is far more stable on our gas hob. It doesn’t tip, heat distribution is very even and the handle doesn’t get hot. It’s fairly heavy in use as the result of being pretty heavy gauge metal, even more so with the well fitting lid. Not so much so that makes it difficult to use.Handy size that means it’s useful for heating smaller items, through to cartons of soup. Entirely non-stick and easy to wash. Super effective on an induction hob.There’s no pouring lip so can be a little messy with milk.Excellent value.If this review was useful, please click consider clicking ‘Helpful’. Many thanks

This is one of the best saucepans I have ever bought! I have bought a few as gifts for my family because I was so impressed by it! If u can make scrambled eggs in a saucepan and it's so easy to clean after then it's a winner in my eyes! I would highly recommend! Excellent quality n lightweight!

Good saucepan apart from the handle being a bit short, making it a bit precarious when full.

The non stick coating works very well and was surprised how easily overcooked porridge just floated off after a short soaking. My previous pan - which was a new one about 5 months old I have subsequently binned - it had to be scraped and scoured to get it clean. And even then there were still remnants of the porridge still stuck.The handle is rubberised which feels very nice and it is riveted to the pan body, not using a screw. My previous pan used a screw and came loose constantly needing to be tightened quite often.Deserves 5 stars overall - but 2 stars for weight which is actually a positive rating. It is quite heavy relatively - to my other pan - indicating this is a quality product.

Was between this 16cm pot and the Tefal Elegance both same price. I went for this one because I do like enamel coatings which makes them much harder. Usually enamel pots/pans don't have a metal plate on the bottom but this one does and it looks great, hopefully it doesn't fall off. I've included a photo of the bottom which I was unable to find when I purchased so hopefully it helps others. The other great thing is the handle feels really nice, its a soft rubber and a nice size. This seems like a high quality pot and hopefully will last a long time. It's all down to how long the coating lasts but just have to be careful and not use any metal utensils and not turn it up to 9 too often.

I have now bought a second one of these pans having "test driven" the first one for about a year. The pan is stable even when empty, durable and the non-stick lining remains as it was when I bought it - unscratched and effective. I have a ceramic hob and was concerned from other reviews that it might get scratched by the lower side of the pan, however I have personally not found this to be the case. The only thing I have found a slight downside is that the height of the handle of the lid means that the lid takes up quite a lot of room in the dishwasher compared to other designs.

I've now had this for a month and feel better equipped to review it.Pros:Good solid feel; works on all heat sources (except induction); non-stick seems to be of good quality; nice highish sides. I've used it quite a lot of times already and not found any problems with the function, Would be very happy to buy another in the smaller size. Lid fits well.Cons:The lid handle is 'rubbish', really high and being a handle-design rather than a knob it's actually more awkward to use. I have solved the problem by using the lid to the pan it replaces !The pan-handle is not heat-resistant covered down to the base, so you need to be a bit more careful when carrying or draining hot things.The pan-handle is riveted to the pan, so the rivet covers are visible on the inside. They are the sort of metal that could easily get caked in debris, (my frying-pan ones are irrevocably stained). The pan it replaces must have used heavy-duty glue I guess, because nothing showed on the inside and the handle never got loose. I reserve judgement on whether this will prove problematic or not. The curve of the handle does make lifting it a trifle more difficult, but not in a major way.The cons are to my mind mostly things you just get used to if a replacement product differs from the original. Only you can tell if they are deal-breakers.The pros are of considerable value to me. I actually really like it and look forward to getting more.

lid steams up so badly, one can't see when anything is boilingonce it boils, lid has to stay off as no outlet for steambadly designed
