Thermo-Spot Technology: Easy Cooking Accuracy
On the surface of every Tefal frying pan, you’ll find a Thermo-Spot heat indicator. Before heating your pan, this spot has a visible pattern; as the pan heats up, the pattern disappears and turns solid red. As soon as this happens, you know your pan has reached the ideal temperature to start cooking – between 180°C and 200°C.
No more guesswork – and no more under or overcooked food. Thermo-Spot guarantees the optimum texture, colour and flavour, making it easy to prepare delicious meals, every day.

I like the set, however 24cm pan is small. It is top size is 23.5, and the hight is lower than my previous 24cm pan. My standard lid for 24cm does not fit. I usually cook for 2 person, however this pan is smaller.
My main goal was to replace my old pan, but I will have to order one more pan separately. A bit disappointed with the size, quality seems good though.
They are cheap but not nasty. Really lightweight and easy to clean. So far we didn’t have any problems with them. Good value for money.
I have to admit, was a little worried at first when I saw on box Made in China. Preferred option would be made in France because many reviews seem to have a problem with Tefal pans made in China. However, I have been using mine for a few weeks now and they do the job beautifully and wash really well. Always used Tefal, only the second set of pans I have bought in last 20 yrs. Hope these will last me another 20 yrs!
Wash well , dose not stick, have never put them in a dishwasher but they feel slick and stay, great for the price
The 5 piece Pan Collection from Tefal is seriously good. The weight, design and functionality makes cooking a joy. In particular the heat distribution is very even and the conduction of heat very fast, which assists in saving energy which means meals cost less to make. The surfaces of the pans are very good quality. No sticking, even without oil. They are elegant despite being part of the ‘essentials’ range. This product is excellent value for money. The five pieces are all you need for every day cooking. One negative to do with my gas job: I have raised metal grids (pan holders) over the gas rings. The lightweight cooking pans slide off sometimes when they have no ingredients in. It means I have to be very careful with the frying pans on my hob whilst, for example, I am heating up oil. This could be quite hazardous if I had toddlers or small children around me. Apart from that, overall the product is excellent.

Handle a little heavy for pan so can tip when empty/nearly empty.
Smaller than expect
Easy to clean and do the job though
Great value for money, I replaced my old set with another Tefal set as I had my old set for over 10years and knew I could rely on them.
Hands down for the money the best starter set I have ever bought.
You get everything you need for even a small family. They are the easiest set to clean and maintain. Food is cooked really well and they absorb heat really well.
Classic Tefal at an amazingly low price. We bought these as a new married couple with not alot of cash starting out.
A decent starter pack of pans.
I’ve used them daily over the past few weeks and they are still going strong.
Obviously, if you use metal utensils you run the risk of damaging the coating but so far so good for me.
Non-stick works well and they are all easy to clean.
These pans are brilliant. They are sturdy and really quite light. they have well-fitting lids and are very easy to keep clean.
They are great to cook with. The red target inside the pan changes when they are heated which is a great indicator of when to add your food. They really are excellent value for money.
Love these. Inexpensive, good all round pan set. Been making do for literally decades and am delighted I got these. Love the small and medium frying pans for when your big frying pan isn’t necessary
Love this light weight set of Tefal pans. Bought my 1st set over 10 years ago so definitely value for money. Couldn’t find anything else light weight that looked as good as my old set so decided to buy them again and I’m not disappointed.
These pots and pans are excellent bought for my new ceramic hob,easy to keep clean inside and out and are the best ones we have ever had.
I love t-fal products. The pans are a bit small. My partner said he can use them for making one scrambled egg. But I think they’re nice for making smaller amounts of sauces.
Good solid quality set of pans. Have a very good feel to them, having arthritis, having good solid feeeling handles is a must. Very easy to clean. Cooking is very good, heat is dispersed evenly and having the lids also helps keep the fuel costs down, as not as much heat from the hob is needed. So in time they could technicly pay for themselves.
I love these pans, they look good, great to use and so easy to clean. I would definitely recommend these to anyone *****
5 star rating for this company, cannot fault items, very well designed and holds heat well.
The heat pad in middle works wonders and food is cooked evenly without no cold spots.
Well worth the value
Used these frequently for months now and they’re in great condition. I did read the users manual (for first time in my 39 years) and have been ensuring I follow the advice given to ensure I take care of the non-stick coating which I’ve found makes a huge difference surprisingly enough haha.
For the price and name good value for money. Easy to clean and cook really well.
Fast delivery, Very good quality my only problem is that the pots are too small for my cooking. Perfect for a couple or a single person but if you have a big family these pots are too small. Apart from that i would still recommend them.
I was excpeting more bigger.Too small for me and i think the quality isnt the same.
we bought this gift as my boyfriend and I are new home owners. So far it’s living up to its reputation. bought this on sale also. value for money
My only criticism is I’d like a lid for the larger frying pan that’s it. I had bought these to replace my previous set of tefal pans that I had in excess of 7 years so if these ones last the same amount of time I will be very happy. I just unboxed them washed them coated them in oil to help with the non stick coating and ready to go. Easy to clean. This set I’d say pan size wise is better than previous set so value for money is also better as u have 2 fry pans. But yeah a lid for the larger fry pan would be awesome other than that no issues. Pans aren’t very heavy when draining easy to keep in cupboard I use on induction/ ceramic hob.
I’ve had these for over a year now and they are still in great condition. My mom did drop the one pot recently and it has dented in a bit, but they’re easy to use and easy to clean.
I am extremely pleased with the product I have purchased. The pans heat up well and the heat is distributed evenly. Being that they are coated with non-stick material cleaning is easy and the pans were reasonably priced. If the need ever arose I would purchase them again.
Bought this for a first home. We haven’t needed anything else! (except a larger frying pan) Non stick is true to its word. Good quality pans that last. Just make sure not to use any metal on the pans or you will damage them. Would recommend this pack to anyone and everyone.
Amazing set of pots and pans, work well and are definitely non stick. We have a ceramic hob and these left no scratches. However the large pan is a little on the small side.
So love this pan set, totally worth the money..
They look stylish, wash well without any scrubbing and have great heat distribution.
Would recommend.
The quality of the pan is very good except for the handle, but it’s ok
It services well for daily use. But I guess I won’t ask for more. It is a relatively cheap price for Tefal cooking pan, so I guess it won’t so extremely tough. But it is good for working as a sauce pan and for fried eggs etc. If it could come with lids with the pan as well, then I would say it is really worth the price.
Tefal has always been a good name and make for me. I have a frying pan from this range that has lasted years, so this set is good quality and extremely good value for money. I have already used a couple of pans and they’ve washed easily, heat distribution is great, and they feel perfect quality.
he sizes of frying pans are disappointing.
not much different and small for my choice
Im sure many people who have complained have not taken care of them
Great set of tefal brand
Somehow mine burned underneath on first use.
Good quality pots but the heat distribution rings on the bottom are their Archille’s heel on gas stove stands – makes them slide easily
I am absolutely delighted!! Im thrilled it arrived in 4days, to Ireland. It was well packed, sealed, brand new, neatly sorted. I havent used them yet but im looking forward to it and i have no doubt about Tefal quality.
As a young couple in our first rented property, we opted for a cheap set of pans when we first moved in, 12 in Wilkos, and within a few months they rusted, and the handles were falling off…so this time we stretched a little further with out budget, and I had my heart set on Tefal. They have not disappointed. They are amazing, they heat my food up more evenly than previous pans, they are so easy to clean, and nothing sticks to them! Definitely worth the money! 🙂
Great cooking set, bought as a gift, recipent very impressed. Good quality, easy to clean and easy to store. Good value for money.
What a fantastic set of pots and pans!
Great to cook with, easy to clean.
NOTE: Don’t let your partner make mash potatoes with a metal masher in these…they will scratch and get ruined!
For the price, these are by far the best pots and pans you can get.
I have had these for over 2 years now and no signs of any wear and tear even with using normal sponges/scrubbers for washing, I heard before buying that these can chip and wear easily but in my experience, this is NOT true
The first year with these pans were good! They worked nice and were easy to clean. But after that time, 3 of them started to pell of the non-stick layer… have to throw them in the rubbish. Only have now the fried pans.
I am not a master chef and currently reside alone. After reviewing the other comments I elected to purchase the set and am thrilled to now have this product. The Tefal 5 arrived quickly and was carefully packed ensuring no damage. The pans aren’t large but so far have served their purpose. The distribution of heat is perfect and they are easy to clean with the benefit of the Tefal bob-stick coating. I would highly recommend these products for a home not requiring an extensive set of pots and pans, and they are very well priced for a great quality product!
These cost a bit more money but I’m glad we went for this option as I know these pans will last us a long time. They clean easy and the glowing Ts on the frying pans, make them really easy to use.
A really great set – very good value for money. Have tried all pans and very happy with them all – as stated in other reviews the smaller frying pan is quite small (ok for a couple of fried eggs) but check the sizes on the listing if concerned. The larger frying pan is ideal for one person omelettes or indeed pancakes! Very easy to clean and would certainly recommend this Tefal set.
I found this set of pans very quick to heat up, and the heat stays in the pan for a long time, so I can turn the heat down sooner and turn the heat off completely before the end of cooking. So I save time and money.
It is not one of the best, but for the price and set is good. It is not a complete set and you have to be careful to not scratch.
I bought the 5-piece Tefal – Essential pan set for my granddaughter for her birthday – as she told me it was the set she wanted – and l must confess l think l would have got it for myself when l first moved into my first home. I thought it was great design, especially for the price – and It had all the pans she needed, (except a large frying pan).
I just needed a change. Ya know when you just need a whole new set of pans?
Well these have served me well. It’s a great set varying in size perfect for what I needed. And great for people living on their own.
Highly recommend
Very good value for money, and very good quality pans.
Im a student who just moved to the UK and wanted to start some cooking.
Its been almost a month. The non-stick is good. The handles are secure. The hear distribution is awesome.
Glad I purchased it.
I’ll recommend this to anybody any day.
The pans are the size stated though. Should be more than enough if you want to cook for 1 or MAX for two people.
Very nice item.
We were away the day they were delivered and were lucky to have them as they were left on the doorstep (in its Tefal box) on display for everyone to see.
Living on a very busy road, this is NOT what I’d expect.
Only giving it 4 instead of 5 because the first time I used the frying pan, I smelled burning and noticed the bottom has a black spot (I use an electric stove). I freaked out thinking it burned through but turns out the metal bit at the bottom was burnt. No idea why but there’s a burn mark after first use. Disappointed with tha
A brilliant set of starter pots and pans for any new household, this definitely isn’t a set for an already established household as they lack the extra quality seen in the more expensive models but has all the features required to make cooking easy and fun when you’re getting started without any compromise.
Really good set, pans are a little small than anticipated, however this is probably our fault for not measuring exactly what we wanted.
These are never going to win a prize for the best pans, but they are definitely worth their money. We have used these daily for 18 months and they all still work. There are slight scratches due to wear but other than that I could see these being used for another couple of years before we eventually upgrade. But was perfect for buying when you are setting up a kitchen for the first time. The “big” pan could have been a little bigger, It really struggles to fit mince or chicken for two people, but we have made it work as the set was such good value.
Absolutely lovely set. Very easy to clean, non stick does not flake off like with other brands. Amazing value for the money. Only slight pointer, the two frying pans are a bit small, it would be so much better to substitute the two smaller ones for a large frying pan.
I will never buy another brand, something’s in life just need to be a brand name, tomato ketchup & Tefal are two of those very things.
Good basic pan set. Easy to clean. Frying pans are good sizes, one is great for omelettes or a fried egg, whereas larger one is more suited to a cooked breakfast.
All 3 saucepans have lids.
Cheap, lightweight and do the job.
I use these every day. For the price, they’re fantastic and the non stick works so well. Make sure to use wooden utensils to avoid scratching. I use wooden utensils and the pans look new with no scratches. I’d definitely buy Tefal pans again, they are a little more pricey than other brands but so worth it!
Bought the products as we were moving house. I should have gotten out a measuring tape to get an idea of the size of the saucepans but that was my own fault. These are perfect basics- we ended up buying one bigger fry pan but are great to cook anything else. I was worried as I have had other pans tip when they aren’t full, these did not. They are very easy to clean and manage heat well. Definitely recommend
Once again, excellent price and quality from Tefal. Not only its easy to clean even with the most stubborn food like rice and curry sauce. The rice just glided off of pan. Excellent packaged to ensure all the pans are in good condition during transiting. Overall, I am extremely happy with this purchase.
These will make an amazing starter set for a student or person moving into a new place. The non stick is amazing and it makes cleaning after so much easier. These are easy to hold and a reliable brand.
Negatives:
This may be a personal problem but I find the saucepans can be Heavy and I genuinely struggle when trying to drain food or pour food out of them. Another is that one of the saucepans was dropped on the floor and immediately bent out of shape and won’t return to its original shape (but this has not effected the use of the pan atall I’m just being picky). Lastly, I was impressed by the size selection of the saucepans but I think the frying pans need a larger variation. This is just out of preference because I like to cook my whole meals in one pan (cooking for two people) and I cannot do this in the size there is. But for a single person this shouldn’t be an issue.
Overall, I really really recommend as a starter set. Good for the price and can’t really go wrong with tefal.
I was a bit reluctant buying these looking on some of the reviews of the Teflon coming off. But I have to be honest they must be getting an egg out of the pan with a Makita 240v grinder to make some of the scratched that they have from “light use”! Stick to your wooden spoons and spatulas and you will be fine!
I’ve been happy with these pans, only used one of them so far. They do look good and unlike a few other brands I tried before, the coating does not keel off and give up. Cooking has been great with the pan and cleaning is easy too.
Only thing is, the rims are a bit sharp, so just go easy when wiping around the rim when power washing your way through the dishes.
I bought these for my Mom. She says they wash great (hand wash), feel good to use, and are very durable. To be honest, if you’re knocking these all about the hob and destroying them in a week – that’s on you. Some of the reviews haven’t got a clue. I mean, please… Look after your stuff! Really great gold-standard, Tefal pans. Amazing!
I have had this set for 3 months now
It is non-sticking and good if you don’t need to cook to lots of people as the pans are not very big.
What I don’t like so much is that usually after washing a kind of white layer always stays at the bottom and this dosn’t happen with other pans I have.
Also, some of the paint outside in a few places is starting to peel off.
It is a very good value anyway for this set, good material quality for the price and non-sticking as this is very important for me.
Issue is I have with the set is the smallest pan is pointless, isn’t worth having. The rest are great. Easy to clean, heat quick and are durable. First lot easily lastest 6 years. I did find though the handles on the pans need tightening after a will (simple screwdriver job) but it gets annoying. Fine for first year but then you start tightening every day 10 washes and that increases with time.
Bought in the sale to replace my ageing Tefal saucepan set. So pleased I did. This latest incarnation is so much lighter in weight and sits more securely on my gas hob when cooking.
The non stick coating is also superior so cleaning is a beeeze. In fact I often don’t need to put them in the dishwasher as I can hand wash so easily.
Very happy indeed with this purchase.
I found these pans really good value for money and they cook food evenly and well, and are very easy to keep clean. I can’t tell whether these pans will be durable, but I’ll update my account if ever I get any issues.
This is proving to be a very good buy. The coatings are holding up (bare in mind the price) and they look good. Have seen similar Tefal products in supermarkets at much higher prices, though not identical – maybe Tefal make for Amazon to maintain their high street prices. At this price only supermarket own brands are available and they are normally very poor.
I ordered this set for my daughter to take to University. I’m pleased with my purchase as the sizes of the pans are good and a lot bigger than all the ‘student’ pan sets I kept seeing in the shops. They are non stick and easy to clean. My daughter doesn’t require the frying pans as she doesn’t fry anything! However, I was in need of new frying pans so am pleased to have these.
It’s a really good set of pans. However, the frying pan could be bigger. It’s not easy to see that this set is more for 2/3 person family from the pictures.
I would also want the manufacturer to write in the manual a bit more about whether this “conditioning” is necessary and how much it helps.
Overall, the quality is great.
My only disappointment with this set is that, after being cleaned in the dishwasher, when the pan is on the hob, water sometimes sleeps out of the joint between the handle and the pan. I hope this doesn’t develop into rust. Otherwise the quality is good.
Great value for money! Very nice pots. The only problem I have encountered is the metal surround at the bottom of the handle can get very hot! I touched this by accident and gave myself a very bad burn.
Not the best pots but at this price they are definitely good value for money.
Fab set of pans at a great price. Bought because our old pans were starting to look decidedly sorry for themselves. We like other Tefal products and thought we’d give these a try. The 3 pans are good sizes, and all 5 pans are non stick (as you would expect from Tefal). My only criticisms would be that the frying pans are slightly too small, and it would be great if the pans could have a lip on for pouring liquids. However, these are minor points that we knew before purchase, and hence the 5 stars.
Bought at 35quid. Loses a star for the saucepans as they could be a bit weightier however for the price they are still a bargain. The frying pans non stick has stood up to a month of use with no issues and no loss in coating. The bases of the pans are thick enough to hold sufficient heat to brown off a decent steak. The red dot system actually works well also.
Really good set to start with. I purchased this for my first home and this is all that is really needed for practically any meal. The non stick is very good and the price of these were great, considering these are individually priced in supermarkets at between 15 – 30 each! Ideal starter se
hese sauce pans are very light but are good, they are non stick so are good for cooking quinoa, the pans are good, they dont need much oil when cooking omelettes and they just slide off the pan. the pans are smaller than i thought, the bigger pan is the one i use for omelettes as the small one would only fit on fried egg
A great set of pans for the money but after a few months the handles come unscrewed and you have to keep tightening them up, which is not easy as they used a screw with a very unusual head. (Its a kind of star shape, not a regular cross-head). No complaint other than that. Good value.
Would highly recommend for students and others starting a household!
Just wow, After using pots and pans that now look like they’ve been through 2 world wars, this set is an absolute dream, things cook so evenly and they just dont stick to the pan no matter what. Cleaning is easy although you have to do it by hand as they say they aren’t for dishwashers which is annoying as I’m the modern man and sometimes my wife just isn’t around to do it! Just kidding 😛
I bought this for use at my student accomodation its a beautiful perfectly easy to use and complete set. However I must say if you’re looking for a set specifically for student accommodation it is best to buy the induction compatible set as the bottom of my set (mostly the frying pans) have been blackened due to the direct heat straight onto the set. As most student accomodation doesn’t allow for gas stoves or stove tops that don’t have heat directly onto the metal base of your set. Otherwise I cannot fault this set at all, it’s main issues were my onnawareness of the compatibiolity of certain stove tops
This set of pans is really good value. They are light to use but appear to be well made – time will tell with use. I’m happy with the purchase for the money you can’t go wrong. Based on this purchase, I would buy other Tefal pans and products. Delivery was swift. They arrived within a day of placing the order. Would recommend if you are looking for functional pans, (the non stick is good), without spending a fortune.
Me and my housemates have been using these daily for about 18months now and apart from a few scratches to the coating (which have not got any worse since I banned the use of metal pan scourers on them) and the handle becoming a little loose on one or two (which we used a table knife to tighten back again) these are still going strong and can imagine many more years use out of them. As long as you don’t use metal scourers on them then the coating stays on. Definitely recommend as they are also very reasonably priced too!
Not had these very long but I think in time they would receive a 5, so much better than the Green Pan ones I had. the clear lid is great and the steam hole means no more balancing a lid on a wooden spoon to reduce the heat/steam build up. Also no more burnt fingers from the metal handle on the lid… They heat up fast and are so easy to wash up.
I have been a fan of Tefal cookware for a long time. Their pots and pans were of the highest quality, second to none! But now I have noticed they are what appears to be using 2 bolts through the pan to anchor the handles. Now the inner pan is no longer clean and smooth but now has 2 bumps on it. Food can get caught around them, no longer can you use a utinsal to clear the pan. You have to wash to clean. This is the only negative I can see. The pans are solid, handles are firm and very easy to hold and control.
All the pieces feel fantastic to use. The products feel solid, though perhaps not of “premium” weight but that’s not what I paid for. Highly recommend looking into some non-metal utensils for use with these to protect the non-stick.
I was a little worried the largest pot would not quite be large enough but, though it is a little shallower than our old pot, it was easily able to hold two peoples full dinner (rice and curry with chicken and veg all in the one pot) with some room to spare. If you are however cooking for more people perhaps consider a set with a larger pot.
Wow. Why didn’t I get these sooner?! Great price great quality set. Mh first ‘proper’ pan set. No more catching risotto, messy grease clean-ups or sticking omelettes. An absoloute breeze to.cook with and clean. They need conditioning with a bit of oil ever week and I’m ever so careful not to scuff them with metal spatulas ect but they are brill. Used them for a month and id highly recommend. The pans are a good size but frying pans are a little small, fine for me and my partner but not necessarily families
Had these pans a couple of months now. They are well made, sturdy and are definitely non stick. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because I have been looking for pans with lockable lids with holes in so you can pour out water etc with the lid locked. The only ones I have found in the uk are very cheap and nasty, and to order from USA where you can get them, is just too expensive.
I put a few fish fillets on the hob to poach, in a little butter
and milk wth a little added water. Waited until it started
to simmer, covered the pn and went into the lounge to
catch the ‘game’ (football) makin a mntal notet take it off
the cooker in 15 min.
Half time came around and I realised I had left it on with just a
little liquid. Rushed in to check damage to pan…..the content
was cooked to perfection and the pan not the slightest bit burnt.
They wash easily, and are about the best pans I have had.
This is a great product, it arrived on time, SUPER easy to wash and food never sticks to the pans! the only thing I would say, is how small the pieces are. Online you can’t really see their true size, but the smallest of the frying pans is only big enough to fry one egg and the largest one is not much bigger than that. I still need to buy a couple more products to have big enough pieces to cook a bigger meal. But the actual product is really good!
These are a nice set, I’d prefer these than buying a cheap set which would probably end up breaking. They’re quite stylish not that it matters, I also like how the food won’t stick to the metal, when I am cooking eggs they easily slide off the pan just like they do on the advert, makes cooking so much easier. If you burn food onto the metal it comes off easily. Never really paid any attention the red spot in the middle, apparently it changes colour slightly when it is at the right temperature. Plus the handles are comfortable. Buy right, not twice.
