Nonstick Cookware Ranges Prices and Styles to Meet Every Need

Mauviel M’stone3 Fry Pan

Mauviel’s latest foray beyond copper and into nonsticks is the M’stone3 Fry Pans with anodized aluminum. The fry pans are lined with Eclipse®, a modern nonstick coating that Mauviel says will last 10 times longer than other coatings while also maintaining its release properties. The Eclipse coating is a three-coat, internally reinforced nonstick system developed by Whitford. The bottom coat contains a carefully chosen and blended combination of resins and unusually hard materials, permitting a far higher percentage of special reinforcing elements. The mid-coat also contains these special reinforcing elements, and is actually a basecoat used in other Whitford reinforced systems. The topcoat is rich in fluoropolymers, and is dedicated entirely to food release.

Made in France, the 3 to 4 millimeter thick anodized aluminum fry pans heat up quickly and evenly, offering uniform distribution of heat through the entire body of the pans. An integrated induction bottom allows cooks to use the pans on gas, electric, halogen, and induction stovetops. The fry pans are lightweight for easy handling and lifting, and are broiler and dishwasher safe. M’stone3 Fry Pans feature cast stainless steel, stay cool, ergonomic handles engraved with the hallmark: Mauviel 1830. The collection hit shelves in June and ranges in price from $115 to $175.

Swiss Diamond unveiled three deluxe cookware sets this year that offer customers a chance to receive a price break while they stock up on all the nonstick cookware they need. The coating of each Swiss Diamond pan contains up to 200,000 real diamond crystals for a long-lasting nonstick surface. Swiss Diamond engineers have developed a method of combining the real diamond crystals with a high quality nonstick composite for a superior cookware performance. Each piece of cookware is made in Switzerland and receives three layers of nonstick coating, ensuring longevity and helping it resist damage.

The cookware is made of pressure-cast aluminum for uniform heat distribution with no hot spots. It is guaranteed not to warp, and each piece has a perfectly flat base for use on any ceramic, gas or electric cooktop.
