T-fal’s Essential range was created with the everyday user in mind. Frying pans in this range feature T-fal’s patented Thermo-Spot heat indicator that turns solid red when your pan is at the ideal temperature to start cooking. Each piece also features a scratch-resistant non-stick interior and exterior for mess-free cooking and easy cleaning. A durable base that is warp resistant helps to maintain the shape, while also making it compatible with any cooktop (except induction). Thanks to Riveted Bakelite handles, you can enjoy sturdiness, comfort and cool-to-the-touch cooking from start to finish.​
