The Circulon Premier Professional 13-Piece Cookware Set is a high-quality, hardworking collection designed to meet the demands of both professional chefs and passionate home cooks. This set is not just about quantity, but also about the quality of construction, performance, and durability that it offers.
Hard-Anodized Construction for Even Heat Distribution
The heart of the Circulon Premier Professional set lies in its hard-anodized construction. This process involves electrolytic oxidation, which thickens the natural oxide layer on the aluminum surface, making it harder, more durable, and more resistant to corrosion. The result is a cookware set that heats up quickly and evenly, ensuring that your food cooks perfectly every time.
Tri-Ply Stainless Steel Base for Longevity
The base of each piece in this set is made of tri-ply stainless steel. This three-layer construction consists of an aluminum core sandwiched between two layers of stainless steel. The aluminum core ensures even heat distribution, while the stainless steel layers provide durability and resistance to warping and denting. This construction also makes the cookware compatible with all cooktop types, including induction.
Premium Stainless Steel Interiors for Easy Cleanup
The interiors of the Circulon Premier Professional pots and pans are made of premium stainless steel. This not only ensures durability but also makes cleanup a breeze. Stainless steel is naturally non-reactive, so it won't discolor or impart metallic flavors to your food. Plus, it's dishwasher safe, so you can spend less time scrubbing and more time enjoying your home-cooked meals.
Tight-Fitting Lids to Lock in Heat and Flavor
Each piece in the Circulon Premier Professional set comes with a tight-fitting lid. These lids are designed to lock in heat and moisture, helping your food cook faster and retain its natural flavors. The lids are also made of stainless steel, ensuring they're durable, easy to clean, and compatible with the rest of the set.
Ergonomic Handles for Comfort and Safety
The stainless steel handles on the Circulon Premier Professional set are designed with comfort and safety in mind. They're ergonomically shaped to fit your hand perfectly, reducing strain during extended periods of use. They're also double-riveted for durability and stay cool on the stovetop, so you can safely handle your pots and pans even when they're hot.
