Product Information
Full details
The Blackmoor Sherwood Classic 18cm Saucepan is designed for home cooks seeking efficient, healthy, and stylish cookware. Its key benefit is fast, even heating with a PFA-free ceramic non-stick surface. A potential consideration is that the wood-effect handle, while aesthetically pleasing, may require specific care to maintain its finish. This 18cm saucepan features a durable forged aluminum body, a healthy ceramic non-stick coating, a tempered glass lid, and a comfortable Bakelite handle, all finished with a sleek black granite exterior.

Troubleshooting
Food sticking to the surface
Ensure the pan is adequately preheated before adding food. Use a small amount of cooking oil or fat. Avoid using metal utensils that can scratch the non-stick coating.
Uneven heating
Check that the saucepan is centered on the hob and the heat is set appropriately. Ensure the hob surface is clean and level.
Handle becomes loose
Periodically check the handle attachment. If it is loose, contact customer support or consult the warranty information for repair or replacement options.
