The Best Pots And Pans For Your Induction Hob

Suitable for all kitchens, these non-stick saucepans from Salter are forged from strong aluminium, making them durable and long-lasting. We’re loving the marble coating, which adds the non-stick. The handles are ergonomic and lightweight – so there’s no hassle moving them around. Dishwasher safe, these snazzy saucepans, with their matching lids, are the perfect pans to cook your pasta. 

Customer review: “I was on a fixed budget and took a long time to decide which brand to buy. I took a chance on these and am glad I did. They’re lightweight but sturdy and non-stick, even when using very little or no oil.”

We love this wok because Tefal Titanium Excellence has the UK’s longest-lasting non-stick coating. Not only this, but the new Thermo-Signal is Tefal’s best yet, indicating that the pan is at the correct temperature to start cooking. Looking for a durable wok? This pan is compatible with all hobs including induction and is made to a great standard. A solid choice. 

Customer review: “This is a really good wok. Strong but not too heavy to handle. Food didn’t stick at all and it was super easy to clean after. Would recommend it.”

Durable, this stockpot from Prestige has a glass lid and is induction-suitable. The non-stick added to this stockpot is scratch-resistant and ultra-durable. Prestige claims that this stockpot is of such great quality that you wouldn’t need another pot for years. Perfect for big family dinners, stews and soup, this stockpot is a winner. It’s also dishwasher safe – so you don’t have to worry about washing it up. 

Customer review: “Absolutely delighted with the stockpot. I’ve made numerous dishes including curry, beef stew, homemade soup and general vegetables. It has a well-fitting lid with good handle grips for easy lifting. Cleaning the pot is so simple, a quick dip and any food debris clean straight off. Also, the bonus is that it can also stand low temperatures in the oven. This is by far the best pot I have used and would continue to buy other sets.”

This twin pack of frying pans are made with a harsh anodised non-stick system. The pans and their handles are oven-safe up to 180 degrees, having been designed with comfortable and secure heat-resistant handles. Not only that, but they’re also dishwasher safe and suitable for all hob types. Circulon has given this set a lifetime guarantee due to the heavy-gauge and durable material. 

Customer review: “I am really pleased with my new purchase. The frying pans are a good depth with excellent non-stick inside and out. The sizes are fine for me, but a large household would need a bigger pan. Cleans beautifully although the write-up states suitable for metal utensils I would replace any metal objects with plastic as soon as possible.”

Are you a fan of your vegetables? Then, this steamer set is for you. A professional-level stockpot and 2-tier steamer set with a toughened, heat-resistant lid, you can’t go wrong with this top-quality product. Not only that, it retails at an excellent price. Made from stainless steel, these pans ensure even heat distribution, therefore great cooking results. Using a steamer is a much healthier alternative to frying, boiling or roasting vegetables as it retains all the healthy vitamins and minerals. Washing up is easy, too, as the set is dishwasher-safe. 

Customer review: "A substantial, robust tall stock pot with steamer baskets. Much bigger than high street or superstore offerings so inevitably needs a bit more fuel to get going, but the capacity is huge."

Make meal prep a doddle with this MasterClass Aluminium 3-Section Grill Pan and cook multiple dishes simultaneously without flavours mingling. The non-stick surface ensures effortless cooking and easy clean-up. Compatible with all hobs, this pan offers versatility and portion control. In addition, it comes with a 25-year guarantee.

Despite being renowned for the preparation and care that you must put into them, skillets are a great piece of cookware. Why invest in a skillet? It combines the convenience of a frying pan with the absence of chemicals that are used in regular, non-stick pans. Pre-seasoned with natural oil, making it 100 per cent non-stick, this cast-iron skillet is very versatile and impressive. Compatible with ovens, grills, stoves and camping fires, this sturdy iron pan is not dishwasher safe.

Customer review: “To get a truly deep and fine patination across the pan – to the point it almost behaves like non-stick, takes several months of repeated use and careful, soap-free, cleaning. As with most cast iron cookware, if you take the time to develop the patina, and then care for it, you will end up with an excellent and highly versatile piece of cookware.”

Frying pans with lids are few and far between, so it's a boon to get one that's induction compatible too. The Professional Anodised Frying Pan with Lid also has a Cooltouch® handle, so you won’t accidentally burn yourself when lifting the lid, but you’ve still got to be careful of any steam. Made of aluminium for fast and efficient heating, this quality frying pan is a super investment, with a 25-year guarantee.

Customer review: “I love using my new pan. So nice to get a stylish product with matching lid. Excellent easy to follow care instructions."

If you’re willing to pay more for something that lasts a little while longer and is better for the environment, we recommend Prestige’s Eco range. In an unusual green marble, this pan is made from recycled materials – including the aluminium itself. Easy to clean and scratch-proof, this pan has a soft grip stay-cool handle and boasts perfectly even heat distribution for great results. It also has a five-year guarantee, and Prestige plants a tree for every pan sold.

Customer review: “I have the 20cm fry pan which is excellent but only works on one ring of my induction hob. So, when I needed a 28cm pan replaced, I was hesitant but went ahead and I'm delighted with this pan. It works well on my hob, has a great non-stick surface and is so light weight! The wok next!”
