Fissler Pans (Tesco Offer)

gcaster · 30 Jun 2013 at 22:37

Has anyone used Fissler Pans before? Tesco are now doing a similar voucher offer for them as they did with Pyrex. The pans are very cheap when compared to the supposed RRPs but I've not heard of the brand before and although the pans look somewhat different to those on the Fissler website if they're a quality brand I may take a punt!
Only downside is I'd need an adapter for our induction hobs but this may come in useful in future.

Been wondering this myself.. Though I think they're only worth their discounted prices. There is a small pan that I'd like which is £15 with the vouchers. Apparently something stupid like £75 without. I'd porbably pay up to £20 for it so I guess you might save a few bob.

I had a look at them in the store. Plastic handles put me off, they felt really cheap...

Guess I'll give them a miss then as Tesco is a little way out for me. Shame though, I'm loving my cast iron Pyrex!

Wasn't impressed with the frying pans but the stainless pans seemed ok. Might get the saucepan but already have a stock pot.

Their website implies that they're a premium brand, but the frypans they had in Tesco certainly didn't feel like it.

I didn't look that closely but it could be that they've made a range specifically for this promotion, happens a lot.

Stock & Casserole pans

Not sure if they are a bargain but I bought the above pans with the coupons.

I can't speak to the other items in the line but I was pleasantly surprised to see on the underside that they are stainless steel 18-10 'induction'.

They are both quite a bit heavier than other pans I own of the same 18-10 type and, subjectively, seem to give a greater evenness to the cooking heat they provide. A pleasure to cook with and they look OK to.

I bought the smallest frying pan for making omelettes and similar and it seems to be working well so far. Not sure how long the surface will hold up but seems good for the price.
