Our verdict

A two size stainless set for searing and sauteing with an aluminum core and a dripless rim. Bare steel needs preheating and oil, and no lids are included.

Overview

Pour off fat or pan juices without drips thanks to the rolled, sealed rim on both Le Creuset skillets. Each pan bonds an aluminum core between stainless steel layers from base to rim, with a brushed exterior and a stay cool handle.

Two everyday sizes with even heating, a cool grip and a rim that pours cleanly cover most stovetop jobs. Food release relies on technique, because there is no coating.

Who it's for

Home cooks who sear steaks and saute vegetables, then deglaze for sauces, will use both pans. Cooks who want effortless egg release with little fat should choose a coated pan.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Two sizes in one box
  • Aluminum core runs up the sides
  • Handle stays cool per the listing
  • Rim pours without drips
Cons
  • Uncoated steel needs oil and preheating
  • No lids in the set
  • Warranty terms not listed

Performance notes

The aluminum core spreads heat sideways faster than steel alone, and because it runs to the rim, the walls warm along with the base. Sticking is governed by preheat and fat, since the brushed steel surface has no release coating.
