Does it work with induction?

Yes. All of our cookware uses an outer layer of magnetic stainless steel, making it induction compatible.

Will food stick? Isn't stainless steel hard to cook on?

Stainless steel has a small learning curve but is not hard to use once you preheat the pan properly and use enough oil or fat. It gives better browning and flavor than nonstick.

Can I use it in the oven, and do the handles get hot?

Yes. Every piece is oven- and broiler-safe because the cookware is all metal with no coatings or plastic parts. The stainless steel handles do get hot on the stovetop and in the oven, so use a towel or mitt.

Is it safe to use with metal utensils?

Yes, because there is no coating to scratch off. Avoid very sharp utensils and heavy pressure; for everyday cooking we recommend wooden or silicone utensils.

How does the lifetime warranty work?

We repair or replace cookware with manufacturing or normal-use issues at no cost. If something is wrong out of the box or breaks during normal cooking, fill out a claim and we'll review it.

All of our cookware, including lids, is made at our factory in Clarksville, TN. We source materials from the US when possible; our cladded steel comes from South Korea.

Does it contain nickel?

Yes. Nickel is part of the stainless steel cooking surface, where it improves corrosion resistance and durability. For most people there is very little reason to worry about dietary nickel from cookware — the amounts are small and your diet is a far bigger source.

Does it contain aluminum?

Yes. Aluminum is used in the core to spread heat evenly, but it is fully sandwiched between layers of stainless steel, so your food never contacts it.

Is it dishwasher safe?

We recommend hand washing, since some dishwasher detergents are highly corrosive and can damage cookware over time.

designed for performance & durability

image showing 5 ply fully clad construction

5 ply construction

cooking surface

Made from 304 stainless steel (also known as 18/10), this alloy creates a stable, durable, and fully non-toxic cooking surface.

aluminum core

Fully sandwiched between layers of stainless steel, the 3 layer aluminum core evenly & efficiently spreads heat throughout the pan.

ferritic exterior

Made from 400 series stainless steel, this layer has a higher iron content to increase its magnetic properties and make the pan induction-ready.

fully clad

Unlike less reliable forms of stainless steel cookware, our 5-ply construction extends throughout the entire body of the cookware rather than just the bottom. That is, it has fully clad construction rather than just a slab bottom.

For fry pans and skillets, this means that both the sides and bottom are evenly heated and can be used for cooking. For saucepans and stock pots, the result is faster heating and all-sides cooking.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! We use no chemical coatings of any kind, so our cookware is made without PFAS, PFOA, PTFE (Teflon), ceramic silanes, lead, cadmium, or any other crazy thing people are making cookware with these days.

No funny business here, just high quality cladded steel. If you want the longer version of how we think about cookware safety, read Beyond “Non-Toxic”.

Yes! All of our cookware uses an outer layer of stainless steel that is magnetic, making it induction compatible.

Stainless steel has a bit of a learning curve, but it’s not hard once you’ve got a couple of basics down — and you’ll get better browning and more flavor than you ever would from a nonstick pan. The two keys are preheating the pan properly and using enough oil or fat. Our cooking techniques guide walks you through it step by step.

Yes — every piece is oven- and broiler-safe. Because our cookware is all metal with no coatings or plastic parts, there’s nothing to melt or break down at high heat.

The hollow stainless steel handles are designed to stay cool when cooking on the stovetop. However, during extended periods of high heat cooking they can still get hot. In those cases use caution and keep an oven mitt or towel handy.

Yes, our cookware is safe to use with metal utensils since we don't use any type of coating that can get scratched off. However that doesn't mean our pans are completely scratch-proof. When using metal utensils, be sure not to use anything that's especially sharp, and don't use a lot of pressure.

For everyday cooking, we recommend using wooden or silicone utensils. But for situations where metal utensils are especially useful, go ahead and use them!

We've been helping our customers maintain their cookware for over 40 years.

If any of your cookware doesn't look quite right straight out of the box, let us know! We will happily repair or replace your item at no cost to you.

If any part of your cookware ends up breaking or behaving in an unexpected way during normal cooking, just fill out a simple claim and we'll review it. As long as you're not doing anything crazy with your cookware, we'll repair or replace any pieces that have issues.

All of our cookware (including our lids) is made at our factory in Clarksville, TN. We source input materials from the US and abroad.

While we try to source from the US whenever we can, some of the specialty materials we use in our cookware aren't readily available to purchase in the US. We source our cladded steel from South Korea.

We'll always do our best to be open and transparent about our sourcing and manufacturing practices. If you have any questions, let us know!

Yes, our cookware does include nickel in its stainless steel cooking surface. Nickel is an important part of the alloy — it’s what makes the steel more corrosion-resistant and durable.

For most people there’s very little reason to worry about dietary nickel from cookware: the amounts are small, and your diet is a far bigger source of nickel than any pan. We cover the whole question in depth in Why We Don’t Make Nickel-Free Cookware. If you’re actively managing your nickel intake, the most effective step is cutting back on foods that are high in nickel.

Yes, our cookware does include aluminum in its core. These layers of aluminum are used to spread heat evenly and efficiently along the bottom and sides of our fully clad cookware. However, because these layers are fully sandwiched between protective layers of stainless steel, the food you're cooking will not be exposed to any aluminum.

We recommend hand washing for all of our cookware as some dishwashing detergents are highly corrosive and can damage the cookware over time.

Pan was well made. I am new to cooking on stainless steel. Cleaning instructions were very helpful. I bought the cleaning supplies also excellent quality and helpful. I watched a few online videos about how to use a stainless steel pan for cooking. If you follow a few easy steps easy to cook with and clean up. I wish I had purchased sooner.

Charles H | Jun 30, 2026

I admit that I was skeptical. It’s expensive, but it was advertised as just the pot I needed. I can tell you that this 12 quart stockpot has become my new favorite gumbo pot. The 5-ply titanium alloy is pressed perfectly. The heat retention and distribution at a simmer is really unbelievable. Once I found the perfect heat setting, I was able to simmer gallons with no sticking or burning even when I forgot about it sometimes. The superb heat control allows me to make a roux much easier, with less hassle. Thanks for a great product as advertised!

Paul F | Jul 21, 2026

★★★★★
I Love these pans. I've watched cooking shows and now I know why their foods come out better. It's all in the pan. Other manufacturers scare you away with seasoning the pan. These pans came with directions, following the directions is all you need to do. Let the pans do the work. They use less heat under each pan, cook beautifully and clean up with little effort. PLUS they are healthier!

Teresa R | Jul 22, 2026

★★★★★
I love these pans!! With these and my cast iron skillets, I am set to cook ANYTHING!! Love buying Made in America, too.

Beth M | Jul 27, 2026

★★★★★
They heat evenly, the handles stay totally cool, and they wash beautifully! Now I need a large "dutch oven" type pot for stews and a smaller (2 quart) saucepan, but I have to save up for them. Totally worth waiting for.

Susan S | Aug 3, 2026

★★★★★
If you're looking for high-quality stainless steel cookware that's durable, easy to clean, and delivers excellent cooking performance, I highly recommend Heritage Steel. It's definitely one of the best cookware investments I've made.

Elizabeth A | Aug 4, 2026

★★★★★
I've only used the pans a few times, but I've been impressed so far. I made a roasted pepper parmesan sauce, had an ADHD moment, and burned the heck out of it. After soaking for a few minutes the pan came away like brand new, so it's space cadet approved. Also, the weight of the pans is nice, they feel sturdy, but they're not so heavy as to make tossing and flipping things cumbersome.

McAlary K | Aug 26, 2026

★★★★★
Amazing! Once you learn stainless steel, you won’t want to cook on anything else. The Heritage steel pen is a great quality. I like the handle better than some of the other ones I’ve had. I can cook fish and eggs and they don’t stick.

Mo M | Sep 1, 2026

★★★★★
Very high quality cookware set! Works great, cooks evenly and had held up very well so far. Love the fact they are made in the USA!

Eric H | Sep 4, 2026

★★★★★
What a beautiful frying pan. Cooked beautifully very even when we first got done cooking with it. I was like oh my gosh it’s gonna be hard to clean soaked it for a minute. Everything came right off. It looks like brand new. What an excellent product I know as I add to my kitchen I’m coming back to you guys.

David G | Sep 12, 2026

★★★★★
I love my sauteuse pan. It certainly is made with pride. I used it right away and am so pleased with how the meal turned out. I browned chicken with potatoes, onions and lots of vegetables. It simmered for an hour. It cooked perfectly on my induction cooktop. The clean-up was easy and it really sparkles. It's beautiful cookware and I love that it's made right here in the USA

Rosanne B | Sep 16, 2026

★★★★★
I've been using Heritage Steel for a few months now and I can honestly say it was the smartest purchase I have made for the kitchen. Over the last decade I have gone through countless non-stick pan sets so it was time to buy something that will last. I cook at home daily and they have yet to let me down. My regular recipes taste like they were prepared by a chef, food is cooked more evenly and they create the perfect sear.

Emily R | Sep 24, 2026

★★★★★
I've been using these for about a month, and I love everything about these pots and pans. They cook exceptionally evenly and quickly. They don't contain any harmful materials. They're durable. They're made in the USA by a family outfit. And they look great. I should have purchased these a long time ago. Enthusiastically recommend!

Samuel P | Oct 2, 2026

★★★★★
I'm a couple cooks in with this pan, and I really like it so far. Finishing on it was great, the lid is a perfect fit - keeps steam in very well, but not too tight of a fit. Pan seems to heat very evenly. And the handle is awesome. I bought the pan for its size and dimensions, but it's the handle that shocked me. Very nice feel in the hand!

James M | Oct 6, 2026

★★★★★
I love the size and weight. Very smooth and non stick as well! I like the small handle for lifting heavy loads. Very well made. My first pan had a small imperfection and Heritage replaced it very quickly! Great company! I own 3 of their pans now and love them all!

Ralph R | Oct 8, 2026

★★★★★
My heritage pan is an exceptional product. This is my first foray into high-end pans and this did not disappoint. Quality is incredible. Shipping was fast. Great to get an exceptional product and keep a small American made company working. Will be adding soon!

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.
