Are the handles oven-safe?

I believe the handles are oven safe to lower temps, but they are designed for waterless cooking on the stovetop. Putting them in the oven would defeat the purpose of these pans.

Hi Judith-- the instructions only provide information for stove top so I have to assume they are not, especially with the lid valve design allows you to listen for the whistle. Hope this is helpful. I really enjoy my set!

The paperwork that came with the set said it is over safe up to 350 degrees F, but I've never put any of the pans in the oven.

My set is! But my set is 35 yrs old and I have never but the handles in the oven . They may have made them better back then. For example, my skillet is "Made in America" I think the new skillets are "Made in China". The wholesaler is B & F System; their phone number is (214) 333-2111

As long as the handles are off to the side they don't get unreasonably hot. They do get a little warm but nothing that requires oven mitts.

I havent used mine in the oven yet, so i am not able to advise. As per the specs, the handle is heat resistant Bakelight, so it should be able to withstand heat . I would advise emailing the manufacturer's customer service Dept directly. They should be able to assist.

That is a great question. I have not used it in the oven, as yet, and I have a brother who has two of them and he has not used them in the oven either. I think they are supposed to be oven safe to a certain temperature and beyond that, the plastic handle can melt. I usually use iron skillets and glass casserole dishes in the oven.

According to their brochure it is oven safe and the handle can withstand up to 350 degrees F. I have not tried using it in an oven.

I experienced no problem with the pot handles at all, but I only used the stovetop, and not the oven. I never used the lids during my (short) trial period with the cookware.

They have plastic handles which I think would melt. But if you ask the manufacturer they would know best

Yes, it is oven-safe. The handle is made of the identical carbon steel as the body of the pan.

Yes you can. Mine are stamped on the bottom that they are oven safe. I have not tried them in the oven yet.

No, the handles do not get hot when you cook on the stove, only when you put it in the oven.

I've never tried the oven. But they are dishwasher safe and microwave save for sure.

Yes - in my experience, the handles do not get hot. I can grab them without any problem while cooking.

I would have to say NO. The Handle and Cover Grip are coated with a heat resistant soft rubber/plastic for lack of not knowing the materials name. Looks and feels like an oven would melt and our burn the handles. One never knows with what they can do these days, though I personally would refrain.

I really don't know because I have not used them as yet . I have the same question when I realize that the handles are not made of metal. actually I will not be putting my pots in the oven . Hope this helps Enid

They are heat resistant. The handles are actually very nice with a comfortable grip.

If you order a set with phenolic (plastic handles) oven use is safe up to 350, but with full silicone handles it is oven safe up to 450. Hope this helps. In checking out the set I have to give as a gift, the handles feel like they are rubber or possibly silicone, I will check further. Hope these responses help.
