Blue Diamond Cookware Diamond Infused Ceramic Nonstick 7 Piece Cookware Pots and Pans Set, PFAS-Free, Induction Compatible, Oven Safe, Blue

Product Information

Blue Diamond cookware is compatible with electric, halogen, gas, and ceramic stovetop but not with an induction cooktop (except for its newest collection, which we’ll discuss later). Now that you know the key facts about the Blue Diamond pan and whether its bold claims are true, let’s briefly discuss its pros and cons. However, take note that the warranty doesn’t cover stains and damages caused by normal wear and tear, misuse, accidents, and overheating.

It comes in 6-, 7-, 11-, and 15-piece sets. For this 6-piece cookware set, you get the following items: Besides frying pans, the brand has expanded, adding several pots, pans, and cookware sets. Here’s what Blue Diamond currently offers:Blue Diamond offers diversity. Their pans come in two different colors to choose from. They also provide differently-sized saucepans, frying pans, and pots. Some Blue Diamond pans are induction-ready, but others are not. The collections that work with induction stoves include Blue Diamond Induction, Triple Steel, Gold, and Clad Pro. The Blue Diamond Classic, Hard Anodized Pro, Green Diamond, Red Diamond, and Pink Diamond collections are not compatible with induction stoves. What is the Blue Diamond cookware warranty? The handles do not offer a cool grip entirely. However, that’s a problem that you can handle with oven mitts. The benefits of this cookware outweigh its downsides, by far.

This is perhaps its major downside–Blue Diamond’s base is made of aluminum, not with a ferromagnetic material, which is what induction ranges require. Besides the Blue Diamond pan and the other cookware items under the Blue Diamond brand, The Cookware Company also owns several other popular brands, including GreenPan ( see my review), Green Chef, and Green Life ( see my review). The hollow handle is open on the end, making it feel cheap and difficult to clean. I’ve noticed grease from pans on neighboring burners sometimes splatters into the hollow handle. If you intend to use an induction hob, then you should not buy Blue Diamond sets. They are not compatible with induction stovetops and will frustrate you. Additionally, the pan’s handles can get relatively hot, and you may need an oven mitt to be sure of your safety. As we suspected, and Thermolon confirmed, these are not gem-grade stones being used in Blue Diamond cookware products. Rather, the material used is a type of lab-grown industrial grade diamond dust.

FEATURES & BENEFITS*

However, they are not compatible with induction ranges (besides the new Triple Steel collection, which is induction-compatible). The warranty does not cover any damage from misuse, abuse, failure to follow instructions, normal wear-and-tear, modifications, loss or damage in transit, or accidents. Tara Casaregola, the engineer who leads cookware testing at Consumer Reports, brings up a number of cookware no-no’s—among them, heating a pan before adding ingredients. “If you leave it empty and have it on high, that’s a misuse that can affect the coating,” she says. Don’t apply oil sprays, like mist and aerosols, as they can lead to residue build-up, which can be tough to clean.

It’s difficult to separate fact from fiction in TV commercials. Makers of many “As Seen on TV” products have been known to exaggerate claims. In my opinion, it’s a bit cheesy, although it might fit the aesthetic of some kitchens. I will say that the style and design live up to its “diamond” name. Oven-Safe Temperature Though my pan has yet to warp, I believe what other reviewers have claimed. I mark this claim as untrue. Diamonds Transfer Heat 4X Faster Than CopperMost of the pan material and weight comes from the solid aluminum base. Aluminum is slightly less responsive to changes in temperature when compared to copper, but it heats just as evenly. Induction

The sets are toxin-free, eliminating any fears of toxins associated with Teflon. They are also free of lead, PFO, PFAs, and Cadmium. The Triple Steel collection from Blue Diamond is induction-safe! It has three layers of stainless steel encircling an aluminum core. The Cookware Company certainly knows how to sell a pan, and the Blue Diamond line speaks directly to the convenience-oriented home chef across their marketing materials. It has a dome-shaped lid, which provides more room for your meals. This also helps stimulate better airflow as you cook. Pro Tip: Warm soapy water is your best friend when it comes to washing your Blue Diamond cookware, both before and after using it.
