KitchenCraft Jam Pan, Home Made Maslin/Jam Pan for Induction Hob with Recipe in Gift Box, Stainless Steel, 9 Litres, Silver

Why did you choose this product over others?:Good value and perfect size for our hob

I have made marmalade and jams for years, coping with large pans, le creuset and others - I had no idea that the right pan would make such a huge difference. Making marmalade in this pan was a revelation. It is really good quality, heavy bottomed, quality steel pan - easy to use, easy to clean - and the process is much quicker because instead of inappropriate ceramic or coated pots, the direct heat works better through the quality steel. I am so happy I bought this, only wish I had done so years ago!

I wasn't sure what the quality of this pan would be like as it didn't seem that expensive compared with some others. However, I couldn't be more pleased with it. The base is nice and solid and thick enough to give great heat distribution meaning that the chance of anything sticking/burning is greatly reduced.I have an apricot tree and a greengage tree in my garden so I'm often required to make large quantities of jam. I was previously using an old, cheap pan with a converter plate for my induction hob and the difference between that setup and this new pan is unbelievable: Not only does the jam come out better due to the lack of hot spots on the bottom, but the process also takes about a third less time because the heat is getting into the jam more efficiently.The pouring lip on the edge of the pan makes filling jars with a funnel easier too.The quality is excellent, with sturdy all-metal construction and the brackets riveted to the main body; I very much doubt I'll ever need to buy another.

excellent . had my old Pan for 50 years do could not use on induction hob. just madeGooseberry jam every thing went well and no sticking or burning.

We do a lot of preserving so this pan is going to have to stand up to regular use. First off pan seems solid and functional, was weary of getting very thin steel walls, but it all seems up to spec. For thirty odd pounds it is worth it. Only bad point is that the ink transfer on the inside (yes that’s not etched onto the steel) that gives volumes is about 10-15% out of accuracy. So is useless, plus the ink smudges if you push you’re thumb over it.. hoping that it’s not a toxic ink.. I scrubbed it in hot soapy water but it still smudges. Perhaps it needs a solvent to shift it. Don’t want an unstable ink/marker getting into my preserves! Quite frankly could have done with a volume measure, as everything is weighed anyway. Hence the dropping of a star rating.

Great sturdy cooking pan with large capacity and measuring markings for ease of use.

Perfect, good quality
