Non-stick pans are no longer a stranger in any household; in fact, most households have several pans of different sizes to facilitate cooking. With advantages in durability, easy cleaning, and, especially, ensuring the health of users, non-stick pans are truly indispensable allies for mothers in the kitchen.
To save cooking time, improve the flavor of dishes, and ensure the safety of your family's health, mothers should pay attention to the following points when looking to buy non-stick pans:
1. Reputable brand

2. Weight and Size of Pans
Depending on your family's needs and usage purposes, you can choose the most suitable pan size, avoiding buying pans that are too large or too small. SUNHOUSE non-stick pans are crafted in various sizes from 12 to 30 cm
, with the most common being sizes 20, 24, and 26 cm
For small-sized pans (12 – 20cm): suitable for frying eggs, sautéing sausages, or stir-frying small amounts of food for 1-2 people.
For medium-sized pans (22 – 26cm): the pan size is neither too small nor too large, easy to handle and use. You can flexibly use the pan for various needs such as frying eggs, stir-frying vegetables, frying beans, frying meat, fish,... for 1-4 people.

3. Non-Stick Layer Technology
The material of the pan determines its durability and health impact on users. Common materials used by brands to manufacture non-stick pans include aluminum alloy, stainless steel, and cast aluminum.
On which, there will be coated with some common non-stick layers such as:
Granite non-stick layer has high hardness, less prone to scratches, heat-resistant, quick heat conduction, lightweight, and even heat distribution but relatively high cost. The appearance of pans with granite non-stick is also more aesthetically pleasing.
Ceramic non-stick layer is also a commonly used non-stick layer in high-end pan models. With ceramic non-stick, the pan has a high gloss, durable non-stick, less peeling, safe for health, easy to clean. Ceramic non-stick pans are considered the safest non-stick pans today.
Whitford (USA) non-stick layer is the most common type nowadays, applied to mid-range and low-range products. Pans using this non-stick technology from SUNHOUSE are usually designed with 3 – 5 layers to increase durability and reduce peeling. This non-stick layer has also been certified as absolutely safe for the health of users.
4. Suitable for the Type of Stove Used
You will need to pay attention if your family is using double induction cookers for cooking. Stoves such as gas stoves, infrared stoves will not be picky about the pots and pans placed on them, but if it is an induction stove, the bottom of the pot/pan must have a flat base and good magnetic permeability. Choosing a pan with a flat base will absorb the magnetic field of the induction stove well, helping the food cooking process to be faster, saving more time. You can check the magnetic permeability of the product by using a magnet (adhesive) or looking at the symbols, images on the body of the pan or fixed under the pan.
With these top criteria, we hope SUNHOUSE has made it easier for you and your family to choose a suitable non-stick pan.
