Product Description

From the Manufacturer

This 3-quart saucepan is part of the Berndes SignoCast Classic line. SignoCast Classic cookware is manufactured using vacuum-pressure casting. High-grade aluminum alloys are melted and forced into a mold, ensuring the absence of air bubbles and resulting in a thick base, thin sides, no interior rivets, lightweight construction, and a perfectly flat bottom that never warps. The aluminum base delivers excellent heat distribution and is perfect for gas, electric, and ceramic stovetops.

The cookware's interior and exterior nonstick surfaces ensure easy cleanup and the coating is guaranteed to never chip, crack, peel, blister, or come off. The nonstick surface allows the user to cook by adding little or no fat. Berndes does nonstick right--in 1975, DuPont and Berndes were the first companies to launch nonstick cookware in Europe. Users are not recommended to use metal utensils or dishwashers with SignoCast Classic cookware.

The knobs and ergonomically designed handles stay cool on the stovetop and are oven-safe to 450 degrees F.

This review is from: Berndes SignoCast Classic 3-Quart Saucepan (Kitchen)

I have had some Berndes pans before but needed to replace my pots. These cook very nicely, nice to see the cooking thru the lid. NOTHING sticks and clean up is a breeze. The knobs on the lids didn't match my older ones but I was able to contact a Berndes rep. and obtain some of the older ones. The lid knob pictured was the older one not the newer lid knob that was sent. The new ones are a silver color not black.
