Circulon's SteelShield™ technology combines the beauty, durability, and performance of stainless steel with the cleanup convenience of nonstick. With an extra thick base, this versatile 3-quart saucepan and straining lid combo heats up quickly and evenly on any stovetop, including induction. Dishwasher safe for easy cleanup and oven safe up to 400°F, SteelShield cooking surfaces are completely metal utensil safe, too. Circulon SteelShield -- the greatest thing since nonstick.
