Product details

When seasoned properly, the carbon steel pan develops a dark non-stick surface, making it great for cooking tasty food without sticking. And it only gets better the more the pan is used.

Works well on all types of hobs, including induction hob.

Can also be used in the oven since it is made entirely of metal.

Made from carbon steel, which spreads heat evenly, keeps the pan warm for a long time, and gives food an even browning.

The dark-grey sloping handle provides good balance when lifting and moving the frying pan.

The design of the handles reduces heat transfer.

You can use all types of utensils, including metal utensils.

15 year guarantee. Read about the terms in the guarantee brochure.

Fabulous pan!Anonymous reviewerI have this and the 32cm pan. They work beautifully if looked after properly. They have a shiny black patina now and I can cook a fried egg or pancakes without any sticking. I cook in the pan, I scrape it, then give a quick scrub with a brush under cold water, then dry out on top of the stove. Works beautifully. 5
brilliant panAnonymous reviewerabsolutely fantastic pan - my main go to frying pan with great non stick and not too heavy. Really wish Ikea still made these as would get the 24cm pan also5
Half the price of the big brandsAnonymous reviewerVery pleased with it, far better than the previous generation one. Very thick so holds heat well and slick, smooth finish which takes the initial seasoning well. It does require maintenance however, as with any bare carbon steel or cast iron to prevent rust, but I'm sure it will last years and years of well looked after. Shame it's out of stock everywhere now as I am in the market for a smaller carbon steel pan and would happily buy again! 5
Don't believe the bad reviews! Anonymous reviewerThose who say they followed the seasoning instructions but still ended up with food sticking were just not using the pan correctly. I think it's quite brave of IKEA to sell a carbon steel pan, as not all home cooks can get on with them and so there's a lot of undeserved criticism. I was so surprised by the quality. This is a heavy and solid pan that feels like it belongs in a professional kitchen. Please search on YouTube on how to season and cook with carbon steel before you use it. There is a big learning curve and there are some important rules to follow to prevent sticking. Before first use I spent an hour lovingly seasoning the pan until it was basically black. Professional carbon steel grills in restaurants also start life out silver and turn black after seasoning and use. It's only then when their non-stick properties are realised. Also, don't forget the pan has to heat up to the point where a drop of water will run like a bead on it before adding oil when using it to cook. 5
Not for the faint hearted!Anonymous reviewerCarbon steel is for serious cooks who know what they are letting themselves in for. If you want a pan that cook brilliantly when you know how to use it, this is it. It isn't good for everything but it's great when you need heat. Don't use too much oil when seasoning. Good luck!5
Disappointed Anonymous reviewerActually went to buy the non-stick version (which I previously owned and it’s brilliant) but it was sold out - bought this instead. Seasoned as per instructions and cleaned when still warm - tried to convince myself over a month that it was an ok pan, but sadly it’s not. Lots of things stick very badly. Very disappointed.1
Very bad quality Anonymous reviewerI have bought that pan and we back home I decided to make some chorizo and scrabble eggs for quick dinner. Everything stuck on the bottom of the pan and after I washed it there was some stains and later on the same places the pan got rusty. I have chucked it in the bin. Such a disappointment. 1
