Why shoppers consider OXO Enhanced

At the core, the ceramic nonstick is reinforced with diamonds to help resist wear and support easy food release. The coating is PFAS-free, inviting you to create meals with a sense of calm about the cooking surface. The hard-anodized construction strengthens the pan’s body, promoting fast, even heating and improved scratch resistance that holds up to regular use. A comfortable stainless steel handle provides a steady, secure grip, while the clear-view glass lid lets you check progress without lifting the lid and losing heat.
