DUCQ Cookware Set 4-piece Downdraft 3-ply

Yes. DUCQ designs its pans specifically for induction. Gas, ceramic, electric and halogen are also perfectly fine. If you often cook for long periods on high gas heat, the base may become slightly warped over time.

Yes, pan up to 250 °C, glass lid up to 220 °C. Note: the silicone ring in the lid dries out faster in the oven. It is therefore better to leave the lid on the counter. The handles do get hot in the oven: use oven mitts to handle the pan.

Yes, of course. Just dry it immediately after the cycle with a soft cloth to prevent streaks and water spots. Over time, washing it in the dishwasher can make the steel look a bit dull.

No, as long as you place the pan in the center of a suitable cooking zone. The handle only touches the pan at two small points, so very little heat is transferred to it. On a gas stove, flames licking up the side of the pan can heat the handle. And in the oven, of course, it will get hot.

The glass lid has a silicone ring with a notch on one side. Turn that notch towards the extractor fan in your cooktop: the steam goes exactly that way. Your extractor fan doesn't have to blow as hard, so less noise. And you pour out through the same notch, lid on.

Yes. There is no non-stick coating: the inside is just stainless steel. So no PFAS either.
