Stainless clad cookware
Clad pans have an aluminum or copper core running up the walls; disk-bottom pans have it only in the base, so their sides heat less evenly.

Read how your pan is made
Food touches the inside surface, which can be a different metal from the outside or the core. The number of layers describes how a pan is built, not how well it cooks. Induction support and oven limits come from your exact pan.
The table compares how each is made, which stoves it works on and how to wash it.

Questions before you choose
Does stainless steel work on induction?
Most stainless pans do, because the outside layer is magnetic steel. Every stainless pan and set we list says it works on induction. If yours has a copper or aluminum outside, check the maker's statement or hold a magnet to the base.
