FAQs about our Stainless Steel Cookware

ProBond and NanoBond have a similar tri-ply construction with 18/10 stainless steel as the interior/cooking surface and our exclusive aluminumProCoreTM. Where NanoBond differs is that the 18/10 stainless steel is further protected by thousands of molecular titanium nano-layers that create an incredibly durable and impermeable surface that is 400% harder than stainless steel and ultra-smooth.

Both our ProBond and Thomas Keller Commercial Clad collections are made of tri-ply 18/10 stainless steel with our exclusive pure aluminum ProCore™ that delivers 35% greater heat conduction.

What's in Common?

What's Different?

Construction

  • ProBond is clad stainless-steel cookware, similar to All Clad, but with advanced features and benefits. The tri-ply construction is optimized by cold forging the steel so the base and rims are thicker for durability, but the sidewalls are thinner to help reduce the weight.

Ergonomic Handle

  • Chef Keller's bespoke handle design, which rests comfortably in hand, minimizes heat transfer via stay-cool handle vent, and offers an improved angle for lifting and moving the cookware. Most notably, the innovative seamless handle eliminates the food-trapping crevice with beauty and incomparable craftsmanship.

Lids

  • The Thomas Keller Commercial Clad collection features two universal lids designed to fit all the vessels in the collection and reduce manufacturing waste by eliminating extraneous lids.
  • ProBond includes our signature stainless steel Hestan lid that is interchangeable between our NanoBond and CopperBond collections.

Finish

  • Commercial Clad pieces have a lightly-brushed stainless steel interior and exterior for an elevated commercial look
  • ProBond has a polished stainless steel rim paired with brushed stainless steel body.

Stainless steel woks are known for their durability and excellent heat conduction, making them ideal for high-heat cooking techniques like stir-frying. They are also non-reactive, which means they won’t alter the taste of acidic foods.

Yes, our Clad Stainless Steel Wok is specifically designed to be fully compatible with induction stoves. This Stainless Steel Wok is designed with a tri-ply body that includes a pure aluminum core, which not only ensures maximum durability and fast, even heat distribution but also makes it suitable for all cooking surfaces, including induction.

Stainless steel woks with lid should be washed with warm soapy water and a sponge or soft brush. Avoid using steel wool or abrasive cleaners that can scratch the surface. For tough residues, soaking the wok or using a mixture of vinegar and baking soda can help.

Why ProBond?

Superior Heat Conduction

Chef Inspired Design

Reinforced stainless rims guard against the inevitable whack of the whisk, while their flared design ensures drip-free pouring. Flush rivets prevent food buildup within the cooking surface and also allow for easy nesting storage.

Reviews

Nice Addition to the Family

"Having a larger pan is all ways nice for particular dishes. The medium rondeau meets that requirement. My nanobond 14 qt chef’s pan is still the top of my list, but this is a great adjunct. Most of the rest of the “family” is probond and Keller because I like the unpolished exterior. However, this is my 3rd piece of polished, it does seem the interior is closer to that of nanobond. Maybe I am mistaken, but I DO like it very much."

Stephanie D. (5/5)

2 qt saucier pan

"The Hestan Conceirge, Michael, was essential in picking the collection and in helping me build a perfect set. I am delighted with my Luxe Probond skillets, sauciers and my dutch oven. I looked at several top line manufacturers and Hestan really has everything I was looking for, especialy the quality and style. Cooking with my new cookware has been fun and is a breeze to clean. TITUM skillets are a great addition to my all steel pans. Luxe Probond is beautiful cookware. You will be 100% satisfied with your purchase and Hestan level of support. Larry P"

Larry P. (5/5)

Great pan, like all my other Hestan pieces!

"I keep buying additional products from this brand because everything cooks food very well, it's beautiful, feels good to grip, is easy to clean, and is made from extreme heavy duty material."

Colleen I. (5/5)

Much better than All clad

"My wife can burn water so I really need some sort of non stick pans around the house. We have been using All clad for years now for their stainless pans. We purchased a couple non stick pans for eggs and such. They didn’t last long at all. I have been on the hunt for a much better non stick pan and we have finally found them. They work wonderfully and I don’t think my wife is able to get food to stick to them yet!"

Joe K. (5/5)

Better than we imagined

"These pots and pans are insanely good. We didn’t expect that much of an upgrade from our very good cast iron, stainless steel, and copper bottom stainless steel ones, but these are totally next level. Everything seems to cook faster and more evenly. They’re also a breeze to clean."

Venu P. (5/5)

Stylish with good quality

"I've had the Hestan nano bound, probound pan, baking pan and pot. All of them are in good qualities. They are also easy to maintain, healthier with high heat cooking. I would recommend the products."

Xiao L. (5/5)

A thing of beauty

"This is now my favorite pan in the house, Beautiful, easy to clean and so very easy to sauté chicken in! We will be buying the larger sized version soon."

William p. (5/5)

Best Cookware Ever!

"My Hestan is the best feeling cookware I have ever had the pleasure to own. I started with bakeware and now have my cookware set. I love it!"

Scott S. (5/5)

Becomes warped in the bottom during very first use

"I'm very careful not to heat up or cool down my pans too fast to avoid them getting warped in the bottom. I actually returned the first pan thinking it was a production issue - but the one i received in return had the exact same issue. It's an issue you would expect from an IKEA pan costing less than a 10th of this pan. I also have a Nanobond "normal" pan - that one is super quality."

Mikael J. (1/5)

Hestan cookware is worth every $

"I have the complete trio of Titus nonstick ProBond Lux frying pans and they are best product on the market. Don’t buy inferior products every few years. Buy Hestan, they perform wonderfully and will last a long, long time."

Sean S. (5/5)

Q&A

Can the glass lids that come with the set go in the oven?
Hi Kay, Thank you for your question. We don't make glass lids for any lines of our cookware. All of our lids are stainless steel, and yes they can go into the oven.
