Great set will last for years super for hob to oven or with the sealable lids the fridge well made and heavy thick bottoms giving great heat conductio
These pans are the best pans I have ever bought .
Wish we purchased these years ago, they’re so good!
If you’re like me, limited kitchen space or you just like to stow left overs straight in the fridge (after cooling), then this set is perfect!
It comes with everything you need for cooking and storing… very good!
My wife loves them, they’re compact and easy to use, excellent build quality.

How have I not bought this set sooner?! Such a brilliant idea. We absolutely love the way these pans all slot inside each other, how easy they are to clean but most of all my favourite thing are the plastic lids to keep food fresh in the pans. We have been using them everyday to keep leftover soup in the fridge and just love that we don’t have to pour it in to different containers.
They really are as good as they say, perfect for storage. I also bought a steamer as extra and the only disappointment with this is that it only fits the large frying pa
These are great. Versatile and save heaps of space in the dishwasher. All my previous pans got broken handles and this cannot happen here. They are perhaps smaller than I expected but I’m over that.
A very good set of pans well worth the price.
Very easy to clean with 5 minutes soaking.
Compact storage, 3 saucepans & lids in less space than used to hold 1 saucepan with a handle.
Love the handles. Easy to use and convenient. Plastic storage lids are very useful.
Power saving, I rarely turn the heat above the lowest setting.
Dropped 1 star as food tends to stick a little, I keep a firm silicone spatula to hand for stirring/lifting food off the bottom of the pan and have decided to buy a hob heat diffuser to reduce the heat of my gas ring as even the smallest one appears to be too hot.
Purchased at less than half price in the sale so cracking value for money ! The removable handles make storage a doddle & easy to clea
All very good except for three niggly issues: the handles can’t be put in the dishwasher (or even submerged in water). Also the pans are quite shallow so it’s very difficult to avoid getting the handles dirty. Finally, the lids are quite hard to position for draining liquid from the pans due to the lie-flat design, although maybe I just need to practise in order to get the hang of it.
The fact that only minimal storage space is required is a big advantage, and the pans fit in the dishwasher very well due to not having a handle in the way. They feel solid, and the lids fit well. The plastic lids are also handy for leftovers.
I LOVE these pans so easy to clean, no worrying about burning handles (they click on and off so easily and are pretty sturdy too) Then the fact that they stack away into a small cupboard, saves so much space, is just a bonus. Why are all pans not like these?
These pans are great there’s no handle so can store in a small space the handle is so easy to put on and take off
Can’t praise these enough. Brilliant to cook with; work on induction; easy to store and fit so well in the dishwasher.
Brilliant saucepans worth every penny believe all the other reveiws
Cooking is a pleasure using these pans. Storage is great too!
Fantastic love these pans, so many smart accessories to go with them!
I love ingenio and these stainless steel pans are a great addition to my pan drawer. They wash very well in the dishwasher but the salt added to cold water when cooking can damage the coating.
Bought this a year ago on sale, never regret that I did. They’re easy to clean, non toxic and save space.
Easy to store, taking up less room in cupboard than conventional pans. Hob to oven to table means less items to wash up.
I was going to buy a smaller set or more economical version of Ingenio but as I checked what was available on Amazon I decided to pick this set because this 13-piece set had everything I wanted, that including glass & plastic lids. All pans are solid, heavy good quality compared to more economical versions of Tefal pans. And how much of space I can now save with these is so impressive, very happy my pan drawer looks so clutter-free now. Highly recommend. I bought them on sale and really worth.
The removable handle takes some getting used to, but I have an induction hob so a lot of the time I just hold the pan. They stack really well. They do show up scratches from using metal serving spoons, they certainly aren’t as tough as my old stainless steel pans. They work very well on my induction hob. I could really do with two more pans, one small one and one bigger one. It’s missing a pan big enough to cook bolognaise and a small milk pan. Overall I am pleased with them.
These are the best pots/pans I have ever owned! Amazing. Nothing sticks and they clean so easily. Love that the lids are stackable too due to folding handles on them – just the best set ever.
Quality products. I bought them with good discount and they have improved my cooking experience.
These pans are great for storage take up very little room & because you can use them in the oven as well you don’t need casserole dishes, excellent buy.
Great set of pans, the storage without the handles is an ingenious idea lol
These pans are everything they claim to be. They stack well so take up little space the handles are solid and clip on and off easily, the lids allow you to see the food and the storage lids are a great idea. They are expensive but quality does cost!
Nice way to store! Saves a lot of space! Yummy ingredients will give you yummy food
We love these pans. The features are super and finish couldn’t be faulted. Would highly recommend!
What a great product, was worried how the handles would work and hold up but they are fantastic. The pans all sit neatly together and take up limited space. The handles give a firm grip and never feel like it may let go. The stainless steel set is a little bit more difficult to clean but cooks much better than other coated pans. Liked it so much that have added the wok, saut pan and pasta bowl to our collection. They look hard wearing and feel like it will last a long time.
Very sturdy and easy to clean. The removable handles mean that the storage space required is minimal.
Great quality from Tefal. Great space saving design. I hope they last a while, fingers crossed
Quite expensive for a set of three saucepans and one handle, but of good quality and design. The compact nest storage is what makes these pans stand out.
I got an induction hob and bought these pans to use with it. Excellent quality, and I really like the separate handles. There is much more room on the hob as you don’t need the handles til you remove the pans. The lids fit perfectly, and there are also extra plastic lids to use for storing food in the pans. I’ve used these a lot when storing excess food, sauces etc in the fridge. I’m very happy with this purchase.
These pans are fantastic, easy storage and superb performance. Would defo recommend.
Great pans easy to use . Can be clean in dishwasher and look as good as new .
Loooove these pots and pans. They are super stylish, easy to clean and versatile!
Perfect design for storage with detachable handles, it takes up minimal space in our pan drawer.
It’s difficult to find decent pans suitable for induction hobs. We recently purchased a much cheaper pack of ‘Tower’ Pans that seemed to work initially but then randomly stopped over time leading us to believe that there was a fault with the hob. The engineer found no fault and suggested we buy a better set of pans. It would seem the more the pans were cleaned the poorer they functioned.
Despite the Tefal set being 4 times the price of the Tower set, the quality is immeasurable. Just by the weight and thickness of the non-stick you can tell that this is a far superior product. Pans heat up in no time and food cooks cleanly. Definitely worth the extra expense.
We’re very happy with the set. Only criticism is that the handles can collect bits of food when you connect whilst cooking. Not sure how they could fix it so not taking a star away.
This is a great space saving design, they all stack into each other so can neatly fit into a smaller space, removable handles mean you can go straight from hob top into the oven. If kitchen cupboard space is an issue for you these are a great solution.
Love this product. I was a bit weary after reading some other reviews but I’ve not had any issues and they’re super easy to store and wash up. No staining at all
LOVE LOVE LOVEEEE my new pot and pan set!! Have nothing negative to say!
My partner thought I was mad buying it for this price but it’s a long time investment that is truly undervalued!
Easy clean
Easy storage!
Easy to use handles.
Easy to use and store, stylish and great quality pans and pots
Really like these, was worried they wouldn’t be worth the cost and some reviews were kind of putting me off. But on the whole really pleased.
Perfect, even have volume markings. Look much more sturdy than the non-stick ones I had before which only lasted 3 years
Pros: Storage is easy in the cupboard and dishwasher. Useful detachable handle which means managing cooking on the hob is easier.
Cons: The detachable handle is not necessary dishwasher safe. If you expose the handle with heat for long time, it messes with the springs and does not function properly. Also, the pots themselves do not clean up well compared to my other stainless steel pots (different brand).
Conclusion: Good buy, but dont think Tefal have got their detachable handle right, could do better.
Pots are fabulous love the detachable handle makes storage easier. Best pots i have ever bought well worth the money .
I love the space saving aspects of these pots and the versatile use. Will augment my collection with more items from this range
Live my new saucepan set. Especially as you can remove handles to put them in oven. Made a lovely pie in one too
Love these pans, I like the way they stack together.
Cannot praise these enough. Space saving design that looks great. Would have liked lids for the frying pans also, but that’s a minor grumble as on the whole these are great.
Well worth the money I paid for them on prime day!
Daily use of these pans is a dream. I’d like a fry pan without the non stick inner so may get one separately. I’ve already added the splatter cover and saucepan strainer. I’ve also bought myself another handle so that I can manage whilst Tefal decide whether they’re going to replace their sub standard one!
Recommend the pans, don’t recommend the manufacturer!!
I am so happy with this set. Super easy to clean and store, ingenious design for those with small amounts of storage space! The clip on handles are clever, easy to use and really solid. Happy customer!
The handle fitting makes these pans really safe. Stacking reduces the space taken in the cupboard.
I love these pots as I can store a lot more in my pots drawer than I previously could.
I think these pots and pans are very good quality, so much so that since buying this set I have purchased the 24cm saute pan, 28cm wok and 28cm pan and the lids to go with them.
Product as described, great quality- easy to use and clean.
Very versatile!
I like this cookware system – its good quality and works really well with and induction hob
Great Product… It is more than what I was expecting.
Had a new hob fitted and so purchased these, very good
Nice looking
Weighty, in a good way!
Saves a lot of space.
Very versatile
I love these pans. They stack great and are of good quality. The little extras like being able to put a lid on the pan and stick in the fridge is helpful as you haven’t got extra things to wash. I found that the bottom inside of the pans discolour slightly but it hasn’t affected use. I recommend to anyone who sees them.
I bought these pans to go on my new induction hob. I was unsure whether to spend that much money on pans, but I’m glad I did. I’ve been using them for a few weeks now and they’re great and still look brand new. It’s a bit fiddly initially getting used to the handles, but getting the hang of it now.
I chose these over the other ingenio sets because of the durability of stainless steel. If I had one complaint. Is have liked either a saute pan or wok included in the set.
We picked these up for a bargain price. The set is well made and, as the name suggests, ingenious. A great quality set of pans that are easily stackable and do save space in the cupboard. They pans have a thick base which is really necessary to avoid food burning to the bottom of the pan. The frying pans have a very durable non stick coating. The only slight downside is that the handles do scratch the not stick coating around the rim.
Just brilliant! Bought at a bargain price. Sit beautifully in my new kitchen drawers. Love, love, love!
I used to have (and still have) the Ingenio non-stick surface pots, unfortunately the scratch very easily even with careful handling. These post, stainless steel through and through are considerable more robust while having the same benefeit, namely being stackable and and having no handles. Perfect!
Great product. Bought it on Prime Day so got a great deal. Can be stored easily.
These pans are so useful you get one handle and all the pans stack together. The lids are quite good too have a little vent so no boiling over.
Good pan set but small one a bit too small, wish they did a bigger saucepan or better still a 3 tier steamer set.
Really good value and very useful for storage on a boa
These pans are perfect for use in our motorhome – they take up so little storage space and can be used both in the oven and on the hob. We are very impressed!
A nice set, should last a lifetime. Wish they did a bigger non stick frying pan though.
Loving my new pans especially the handless concept. They stack well, work on my new induction job, go in the oven, very versatile, just love them
Brilliant for stacking. Love the removable handles and a dream to keep clean – so easy to wash as nothing (as yet) has stuck to them. Slightly smaller than I expected but that’s my fault for not getting my tape measure out. Have bought bigger pan and frying pan to add to set for family size cooking. Overall impressed.
Expensive but totally worth the money paid on Black Friday
Love them , so much space left in cupboards now!. I bought some pan protectors as well
This Tefal Ingenio Stainless Steel 13 Piece Set includes: 16cm, 18cm and 20cm saucepans; 16cm, 18cm and 20cm glass lids; 16cm, 18cm and 20cm plastic lids; 22cm and 26cm frying pans plus 2 removable handles.
The saucepans perfectly nest into each other, offering a versatile space saving solution and also feature internal measuring marks for improved accuracy whilst cooking. The glass lids feature fold flat knobs, ensuring they are easy to store and stack. The plastic lids convert saucepans into storage containers.

Cooking has never been this simple, even for a novice like me!!!!!
Frying pans feature Tefal’s Titanium non-stick coating, which is a metal utensil safe and exceptionally easy to clean. Frying pans also feature Tefal’s iconic Thermo-Spot, which indicates when the pan has reached the optimum cooking temperature.
This set is compatible with all hobs, including induction, is dishwasher safe and is also oven safe up to 260C. The Ingenio removable handle has a 10 year guarantee and the non-stick coating has a lifetime guarantee against blistering and peeling.
Overall this is the best pan set I have ever used.
Absolutely brilliant.
Love it, so convenient. Still getting used to the removable handles though, but they work well!
Very thin metal, could bend very easily. So far non stick has worked well. (2 months). Handle is great. Wife likes them and they stack well, so space saving
Very pleased with purchase space saver as use for Carava
Worth the money. Ingenious indeed! Fab pans and so much freed up space.
Fabulous pan set, easy to use, easy to clean, love them, cooking has become a pleasure again.
I bought these pots for an engagement gift, the gift was very well received and they were delighted with the quality of the pots. They have well used already.
they are a great space saver and really nice to cook with and the added bonus you can fit more in the dish washe
The set itself is so compact that when the box arrived I didn’t believe it was it until I opened it up!
The handle feels solid and sturdy. It has a very satisfying click and it does give you the feedback to trust that it won’t crack open and make a mess of your kitchen. The pot doesn’t wobble inside the handle, and I was expecting a bit of wobbling honestly.
I’ve used them in the fridge, oven, electric and gas. I’m more than happy with them and If I have to recommend a set for a small kitchen THIS will be the one, hands down.
Can’t recommend it enough
New set replacing my non stick. Very good but should have a smallest pan as well really
