We also like that the saucepans have a pouring lip, too – it makes draining pasta a doddle. We're impressed with the superior quality of these pans; they are crafted from hard-wearing 18/10 stainless steel and are scratch resistant. They can even be washed in a dishwasher, though to maintain a high shine, the manufacturer recommends hand washing.

It is also a very durable material. In addition, it holds heat well so you can save money by turning down the temperature controls to a lower setting. Copper and pure aluminium will not work with induction. However, some now have stainless steel bases so they will work on all hob types.

They heat up fast and retain that heat, so chefs love them. Copper pans for use in a domestic kitchen will likely include stainless steel in the materials for practicality; this may also make them induction hob safe, but pure copper pans can't be used on an induction.

They usually have four (six or eight on a range cooker) cast iron pan stands over a gas flame. An ignition point and controls will allow you to adjust the level of flame for more or less heat. The higher the flame, the hotter the heat, but make sure it doesn’t travel too far up the side of the pan, especially near the handle, as it can burn, melt and get dangerously hot.

Mumsnet users love cooking for their families and friends and have lots of opinions on the best tools for the job. So, the Mumsnet forums were the first stop on our journey to find the best saucepan sets. If you have an induction hob, your cookware must have a magnetic base. Most types of stainless steel will work well, and so will cast iron, but the rough surface may scratch your hob.When you’re cooking for a family, you ideally want a couple of saucepans in different sizes so you can cook things like pasta in one and sauces in another. A set with a range of pans between 16 to 20 cm would cover all your needs, although you might also want to invest in a smaller pan for heating things like gravy and milk.
