DECADES OF AMERICAN CRAFTSMANSHIP

We're a family-owned manufacturer obsessed with building great stainless clad cookware. In fact, it's the only thing we've been making for over 40 years, so we've gotten pretty good at it.

over 40 years of american manufacturing

Running a quality-obsessed factory here in the USA is hard.

Why have we kept at it?


The

Product

By making these pans right here, we get full control over all the details and processes. If something isn’t up to our standards, we can improve it. We’re continually refining our manufacturing, ensuring that every pan is reliably high quality.

The

People

We’re a small team, a good portion of which has worked here for decades. These colleagues are our friends and neighbors, and our factory relies on their expertise, knowledge, and hard work to keep producing great products year after year.


3 generations

family-owned & operated

Making and selling cookware has been the Henn family business for decades. While our product has evolved over the years, our mission has not:

Make a great product, sell it at a fair price, and pay good wages to the American workers who build it. Our aim is to craft tools that help people fall in love with cooking at home.

our history of cookware

crazy good quality without the crazy high markup

There are a lot of options out there for premium stainless clad cookware. We've worked really hard to combine quality materials, experienced craftsmanship, and affordable prices, all while paying good wages to the American workers who build the product.

We believe in transparency in manufacturing & marketing. If you're going to trust us to make the tools you cook with, the least we can do is provide clarity around how our products are made, the materials we use, and what your purchase helps support.

When you buy from us, the vast majority of your purchase goes to pay for the quality materials and experienced craftsmanship we put into the product. You're supporting a small family-owned business, not some massive corporation's bottom line.

All-Clad uses very specific language around where their cookware is made, saying that their cookware is "bonded, engineered & assembled in USA", but do not use the wording "Made in USA". This is likely because the US Federal Trade Commission has very strict guidelines around when a manufacturer can claim that a product is "Made in USA".

In our case, we use the "Made in USA with Global Materials" statement. The FTC calls this a "qualified statement," which is necessary given that some of the materials we use in manufacturing are imported.

For All-Clad, however, they seem to consciously avoid any type of Made in USA statement, qualified or unqualified. Why is that? It's very hard to say.

If you want to nerd out on all kinds of information about Made in USA claims you can read through the full guidelines from the FTC.

I love the stainless pans. You can tell quality of the workmanship is top notch. You can cook on a low heat and clean up is super easy. I like them better than cast iron. A very nice made in the USA product. I love the pans. Much easier to use than cast iron.

Excellent sized skillet for stir fry and pancake making. I love how it cooks the food and then cleans easily. Very good customer service also!

Just got mine and already am in love. This is the absolute best pan for tossing pasta in sauce, making risotto, and etc. Solid, heavy bottom, really nice handle, beautiful brushed finish; honestly leagues above any of my All Clad cookware. 3Qt is the perfect size also for my wife and I. For a larger family or cooking for guests, I would probably get the 5Qt. This is my first pan from this company, but it won't be my last.

This fry pan is nicely finished and well balanced. I've had the set for about 2 weeks now. So far I've made eggs, home fries, meatballs, spaghetti sauce, grilled chicken, and fish. All of the pans and pots I purchased seem to make cooking more enjoyable and the cooking quality is superb.

I love this set! I wanted to get rid of all my non stick pans and was looking for a set I would have forever. The Heritage Steel set was a big purchase for us and I was nervous. When I received them I could easily see how well made they are. I have to adjust how I cook, but I wouldn't hesitate at all in recommending Heritage Steel to anyone.

I love my new pots and pans set. These are great for my glass stove top and I really love that I can place them in the oven too! It’s amazing to me that the handles don’t get hot when I’m cooking on the stovetop. Being titanium is even better and they are so easy to clean. You’ve got a customer for life!

I've been using my new Heritage stainless steel pan for a few weeks now, and I'm beyond impressed! Heat distribution is superb, and it sears meats to perfection. Cleanup is easy, and it still looks brand new after multiple uses. I simply had to trust the process of how to use them properly. A must-have for any kitchen!

So far, this set has very much impressed me. I'm not at all a professional cook, and this set is the first higher-end set I've owned. It has seemed very well-made, and the pots heat up water to a boil far faster than any pots I've owned before. So far, these have been a pleasure to work with. Thank you for the awesome cookware.

Food cooks evenly the bacon is nice and crispy where ever its at in the pan! Cleanup is so easy no hard scrubbing which really surprised me. I'm so glad I threw all of my no stick cookware in the trash and switched to the Stainless Steel Heritage Ware!

I could not be more pleased with these pans. They feel great in your hands, heat beautifully, and — when you preheat them as recommended — there’s no sticking. I’d give them six stars if I could.
