Pots & Pans FAQs

How do I choose the best pans for my induction hob?

Pans for induction hobs have flat, magnetic bases, and you’ll find clear labels saying they’re compatible with induction. Browse our selection of induction-ready, non-stick designs in stainless steel and cast iron to find a pan that matches your cooking style and desired weight. Look for pots and pans in sizes that match your hob rings, plus practical features like comfortable handles, well-fitting lids and dishwasher-safe finishes.

How do I know if a pan is induction-compatible?

To find out whether pots and pans are compatible with induction hobs, look for an induction-ready label on the package or product description. Alternatively, check the pan itself for an induction symbol, commonly appearing as a coiled spring or loop icon. If there’s no symbol, place a magnet against the bottom of your pan; if it sticks firmly, the pan is induction-compatible. In our collection, you’ll find pans suitable for both conventional and induction hobs.

What kind of pots and pans are best?

Choosing pots and pans depends on what you like to cook. It’s a good idea to choose a few versatile pieces such as a frying pan and sauté pan, along with a medium-sized saucepan for things like pasta and a smaller milk pan. You might want to consider investing in a set of different-sized pans so you have one for most eventualities. At M&S, you can pick from stainless steel, cast iron and aluminium designs.
