Made of durable hard-anodized aluminum of uniform thickness, the griddle is an excellent heat conductor and cooks food quickly and evenly. Its double-coated nonstick cooking surface prevents food from sticking and makes cleanup easier. The pan has an oval stainless-steel handle with a blasted satin finish that is comfortable to grip and that is held in place by sturdy stainless-steel rivets. A raised edge on the handle side of the griddle serves as an excellent backstop when flipping food over. This pan is oven-safe up to 375 degrees F so you can keep cooked pancakes warm while preparing the rest of breakfast. All cookware in this line is 100-percent dishwasher-safe and is covered by a 10-year warranty.--Cristina Vaamonde
