FAQs

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?

  • ProCore™ delivers 35% greater heat conduction
  • Induction compatible
  • Signature Hestan Advantages...
  • Handcrafted in Italy
  • Lifetime warranty

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.

Our ProBond collection is also a recipient of the 2021 Red Dot and Good Design Awards for distinguished design. Learn more about the Red Dot Award and Good Design Award.

Reviews

Outstanding

"I recently upgraded to the Hestan Commercial Clad Stainless Steel 29-Piece Cookware Set as my first quality stainless steel collection, and it has been absolutely amazing. The even heating, sturdy construction, and beautiful finish make cooking a joy, with every piece performing flawlessly from stovetop to oven. Cleanup is effortless, and the set feels built to last for years. Highly recommend!"

— Bob W. (5/5)

Top tier quality

"The quality of the pans is fantastic. With the performance I was very impressed with heat distribution and how long the pan stays hot after turning the burner down. The shape and size of the 12. 5 and 11 inch are perfect for daily use. With the handle shape and weight of the pans the balance is very nice"

— Keegan W. (5/5)

Exactly what I was looking for

"The quality and usability of this skillet is excellent. It has just the right amount of weight and thickness to be easily used. The handle groove is very comfortable in hand. I think I've found the last skillet I'll ever need."

— Tim H. (5/5)

From a former restaurant owner and chef.

"I have cooked in a myriad of cookware throughout my home and professional experience. Including cooking at Commander's in New Orleans. And here is my summation. Heston. I thought it was out of my budget for the home, but this is the time. Go for it, it's worth it. All-Clad, lives on there reputation and does not deliver to that extent. Don't get me wrong, solid cookware, but a little inconsistent. I really like it, but not like Hestan. Made In. Spends more money on advertisements and endorsements that they do on their pans. Solid pass. Misen. My #2 in my kitchen. Solid 5 ply. Great budget cookware. Cuisinart, depending on the line, varies from OK to trash. The rest, Oxo, Heritage, etc. , I'll pass. So glad I doubled up my order last week."

— Kevin (5/5)

Awesome!

"Heatan truly lives up to the name. Craftsmanship at its finest!"

— Jose U. (5/5)

I'll never buy a different brand again

"This rondeau works great on basically any stove I've put it on. It transfers heat well and very evenly, and is responsive to temperature changes. The handles stay cool too the touch even after being on the heat for a long time. I wish I bought this earlier."

— Luca R. (5/5)

Chef inspired

"I like to learn how to be a better home cook with my set of skillets. I always feel like a chef in progress every time I cook in my skillet. The only detail is I like my pots to look like new so I have to wash by hand and dry to make them look like new and avoid the salt stains."

— Mitzi F. (5/5)

Beautiful and excellent quality rondeau pans!!!

"Just the look I wanted on my new rondeau pans. First time Hestan buyer. I have used the big one and it’s all I expected. Easy cooking and easy cleaning. Put it on the table and it looked great next to formal china."

— V G. (5/5)

Love these pans

"I ordered a set of these pans after seeing all the reviews on them. I absolutely love them. I also got one of the smaller nonstick frying pans, and I have literally use it every single day. I just have to wipe it out. It cleans up so well. Well worth the money."

— Karen H. (5/5)

Exceptional Craftsmanship That Actually Holds Up

"I’m incredibly picky about my kitchen gear, and after some frustrating experiences with other high-end brands, Hestan has completely won me over. A while back, I invested in a Made In skillet, but it didn't take long for the pan to warp, ruining its heat distribution and making it incredibly annoying to cook with on a flat surface. Looking for a serious upgrade in durability, I switched to Hestan, and the difference in craftsmanship is night and day. Their anti-warping technology is the real deal—so far, these pans have stayed perfectly flat and rock-solid, handling heat exactly the way a premium pan should. I started with two pieces to test the waters: 11. 5-Inch Non-Stick Skillet: Absolutely excellent. The release is flawless, and it has a heavy, professional-grade balance in the hand. 12. 5-Inch Stainless Steel Skillet: An absolute workhorse. It heats incredibly evenly, sears beautifully, and cleans up effortlessly. The attention to detail and build quality on these is so impressive that my testing phase is officially over. I'm completely sold on Hestan, and my next move is buying the full Thomas Keller collection. If you're tired of expensive pans warping out of shape, skip the mid-tier brands and go straight to these."
