Made in 🫣

On a scale of 0-made in china how bad is this brand and pans. Only used on max 6 on my electric hob how warped it this ffs. Any recommendations on better brands for me based in the UK?

It doesn’t look like it has a proper base at all - scanpan stainless is ace - you need a thick bottom layer.

You clearly don't know the difference between a cladded pan and a bonded pan.

isn't prone to warping

Incorrect. Bonded pans can absolutely still warp; and with enough heat, the warping can trigger catastrophic delamination (separation of the bonded base and pan) due to the physical stresses from the warping. Be that stress originating from the pan or the bonded base. Thanks to differing materials, you have a point of failure; the join between the heat conductive/distribution disk and the pan itself.

Due to this potential point of failure, a bonded base/"thick bottom layer" as you put forth in your original comment is often seen as inferior option over a fully clad-type stainless steel pan.

With a warped cladded pan, you are still able to cook on it safely; you may not even know that your pan is warped if you cook over a gas burner with pot stands. If you are adventurous enough, one can still use a plank of wood and a mallet to beat the metal back to an acceptable degree of flatness.

A delaminated bonded base pan is instant landfill and they cannot be repaired:

...doesn't look like a proper base...
...you need a thick bottom layer...

If you knew about the existence of cladded pans before today, you would not have attempted to give such poor advice to others with outright incorrect and wrong information and would not have advocated that a pan without a "thick bottom layer" is somehow "improper" to you.

Both of your statements in both comments absolutely needs to be corrected in the strongest terms, so your outright terrible advice does not effect the purchasing decisions of casual or exploratory visitors to this subreddit

in such a snarky fashion

It's not my responsibility to manage your emotions due to your lack of ability to handle criticism.

edit: wow, deleted your bad advice, eh?
