Which pan should I choose?
Start with how you cook most. A 28cm frying pan, a 16–20cm lidded saucepan and one heavy casserole cover most home kitchens. Add a wok, griddle or stock pot only where you cook that way often.

Something more specialised
Tagines, paella pans, fondue sets and other pieces built for one particular job.
Choosing the right cookware
Know your materials
Most of the difference between one pan and another comes down to what it is made of. These are the constructions you will find across the Cookin range.
Stainless steel
Tri-ply and sandwich-based stainless pans take high heat, do not react with acidic food and go in the dishwasher. They need a little fat and patience to release food cleanly.
Best for
Saucepans, stock pots, roasters and multi-purpose sets
Shop SaucepansCast iron & enamelled cast iron
Heavy, slow to heat and slow to cool. Bare cast iron builds a seasoning over time; enamelled cast iron needs none and comes in colour. Both move from hob to oven to table.
Best for
Casseroles, skillets, grill pans and woks
Shop Casseroles & Dutch OvensNon-stick
Coated aluminium or cast-aluminium bodies that release eggs, fish and pancakes with very little oil. Keep to medium heat, use non-metal tools and they last well.
Best for
Frying pans, crepe pans and everyday sauté pans
Shop Frying Pans & SkilletsStoneware, ceramic & glass
Oven-to-table dishes that hold heat long after they leave the oven. Not for the hob, but ideal for gratins, bakes, roasted vegetables and serving.

Expert advice
The questions we answer most.
Short, honest answers from the shop floor. For anything specific, the product page lists materials, hob compatibility and care for every piece.
Cast iron, stainless or non-stick?
Cast iron for searing, braising and heat that stays put. Stainless for sauces, boiling and anything acidic. Non-stick for eggs, fish and delicate food at moderate heat. Most cooks end up with one of each.
Does it work on induction?
Induction needs a magnetic base: cast iron and most stainless pans qualify, and induction-ready aluminium pans carry a steel plate. Check the product page — every Cookin listing states hob compatibility.
How do I care for cookware?
Let pans cool before washing, avoid metal tools on coatings, dry cast iron immediately and oil bare iron lightly. Hand-wash enamelled cast iron and non-stick even when the label says dishwasher-safe — they will last far longer.

A few we keep coming back to
One from each corner of the range — different materials, different jobs, all pieces we would put in our own kitchens.

Cookware is judged on heat, not looks. A thick, sandwiched base spreads heat so sauces do not catch, cast iron holds it long enough to brown properly, carbon steel reacts fast enough for a stir-fry, and a lid that actually seals turns a pot into an oven.
Cookin stocks cookware from brands we know and trust, including AMT Gastroguss, Scanpan, Zwilling, Staub, Le Morgan, Victoria, KitchenCraft, MasterClass and Küchenprofi.
