FAQs
Is this stockpot oven-safe?
No, the wood-effect Bakelite handles are not oven-safe and should not be exposed to high oven temperatures.
Can I use metal utensils with this stockpot?
It is strongly recommended to use only wooden, silicone, or plastic utensils to protect the non-stick ceramic coating from scratches.
How do I maintain the non-stick performance?
Avoid high heat, never use abrasive cleaners or metal utensils, and allow the pot to cool before washing. A light seasoning with oil before first use and occasionally thereafter can also help.
Is the ceramic coating truly free of harmful chemicals?
Yes, the product description states it is PFAS-free, meaning it is free from harmful chemicals such as PTFE and PFOA.
What is the best way to clean this stockpot?
Hand wash with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge. Avoid abrasive materials. The non-stick surface should make most food residue easy to remove.
Will this stockpot work on my induction cooktop?
Yes, this stockpot is designed to be suitable for all hob types, including induction.
What is the capacity of this stockpot?
This is a 24cm stockpot, providing ample space for large batches of soups, stews, or boiling ingredients.
Troubleshooting
Food sticking to the surface
Ensure the pot is adequately preheated before adding food. Use a small amount of oil or butter. If sticking persists, the non-stick coating may be degraded; consider seasoning or replacement.
Handles becoming loose
Check if the handle screws need tightening. If they cannot be tightened securely, contact customer support.
Uneven heating
Ensure the hob burner is appropriately sized for the base of the pot. Verify the hob surface is clean and level. For induction, ensure the pot is centered correctly.
Discoloration of the interior
Some minor discoloration can occur with high heat or certain acidic foods. This is usually cosmetic. Ensure thorough cleaning after use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup:

Care and Maintenance:
- Washing: Hand wash recommended using a soft sponge and mild dish soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or scouring pads, as these can damage the non-stick coating.
- Cooking Utensils: Use only wooden, silicone, or plastic utensils to prevent scratching the ceramic surface. Metal utensils will damage the coating.
- Heating: Avoid overheating the empty pot on high heat for extended periods. Preheating on medium heat is usually sufficient.
- Cooling: Allow the pot to cool down before washing to prevent thermal shock, which can warp the base or damage the coating.
- Storage: Store carefully to avoid scratching the interior. Consider using a pot protector if stacking.
