        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?

        • ProCore™ delivers 35% greater heat conduction
        • Induction compatible

        • 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.

        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

        Tri-ply stainless steel construction with our exclusive pure aluminum ProCore delivers 35% greater heat conductivity than other clad cookware.

        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.

        Heavy Duty Construction

        Our cold forging process provides a thicker base for even heat distribution, thinner side walls for lighter weight and thicker rims for increased durability.

        One Great Oan

        "This pan is an absolute delight to use. It is a perfect size to cook a bigger batch of dinner & it is so easy to clean. I’m very happy I purchased it & would recommend it to anyone. It’s not too heavy & easy to handle."

        Stephanie C. (5/5)

        "The large 3-quart size is ideal for everyday use, and cleanup is a breeze with standard dish soap and a little Bar Keepers Friend. The ergonomics of the handle and the overall design simply can’t be beaten. Among the Hestan lineups, the ProBond Luxe (Polished Clad) collection is easily my favorite and offers the absolute best value for the performance and craftsmanship you get."

        Hunter (5/5)

        Beautiful & functional

        "Hestan is the most beautiful and sturdy cookware, and that design on the handles is so pretty!! Now waiting for water droplets to dance on the surface is a new favorite activity :) I’m so happy Hestan was my first stainless set, it’s perfect for studio living too!"

        Carolyn C. (5/5)

        Great sear with no oil. Wow!

        "What can I say. Perfectly seared salmon without the need to add a drop of olive oil. Nothing like perfectly crispy skinned Salmon. Thank you Hestan"

        John K. (5/5)

        Perfection!

        "I love my non stick skillet! I use it all the time and my culinary efforts turn out great every time. It truly evenly distributes heat, and it really is non stick, regardless of what I cook in it. Hestan cookware is the only cookware I want to use, now that I’ve started purchasing it. You’ll love it too!"

        Doreen T. (5/5)

        Fabulous Cookware

        "After 26 years of All Clad, we are thrilled with our Hestan purchase. Absolutely love the sealed edges and that the pans are dishwasher friendly!"

        Stephanie S. (5/5)

        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)

        The Perfect Pan

        "Perfect size and I love that it doesn't have a long handle that just gets in the way."

        Stephanie S. (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."
