Experience even heat and exceptional release with Viking Hard-Anodized Nonstick Cookware. Constructed with heavy gauge anodized aluminum for durability and even heat distribution throughout the sides and bottom of the pan. Accepted worldwide as one of the most conductive metals for cooking, aluminum is strengthened through the anodizing process until it is twice as hard as stainless steel. Featuring triple-layer nonstick for superior release and durability. Each piece is coated with three layers of durable nonstick coating to ensure maximum release and longevity, even when using metal utensils. The multi-layer coating improves release and protection even if the top layer is scratched over time. Designed with ergonomics in mind, Viking signature handles are handcrafted from cast stainless steel and riveted to the pan for a lifetime of durability. The dual side handles are raised above the griddle to help them stay cool while providing Comfort, balance, and control. The Viking hard-anodized double burner griddle can be used on most cooktops, except induction, in the oven, or on the grill up to 400°F/204°C. The entire line features a 10-piece set and open stock pieces. Viking hard anodized nonstick cookware is dishwasher safe and backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
