Fissler Intensa 9-Piece Stainless-Steel Cookware Set Overview
The Intensa cooking system offers fascinating, modern European design and a multitude of innovative functions that make work in the kitchen so much easier. The line is constructed from beautifully polished 18/10 stainless steel, a scratch-resistant matte interior, and high heat-resistant melamine handles. Intensa has won five prestigious design and innovation awards: Red Dot, Le Grand Prix de l'art de vivre, Design Plus, Rheinland Pfalz Preis, and the IF Communication Design Award. Intensa is the only cooking system with the innovative ThermoStar temperature indicator built into the lid. The indicator changes color to tell you exactly what is happening inside your pot, significantly reducing time and energy, and giving you total control over the cooking process. Durable and high-heat resistant melamine handles are comfortable to hold and the side handles feature integrated lid holders, allowing for easier, mess-free cooking. With the lid up, condensation drips back into the pot, and keeps countertops clean. The internationally patented pouring function built into each pot enables hot water or juices to be poured out with the lid on. A turn of the lid at 90 degrees seals the lid, providing the best conditions for gentle, vitamin-friendly cooking using little or no water. Intensa is designed to maximize precious space in the kitchen, being conically-shaped to allow for all pieces of the same diameter to be stacked inside each other without wedging or scratching. The fully encapsulated CookStar all-stove base, which is comprised of a pure aluminum core and high-quality 18/10 stainless steel, ensures that the base that will never separate or warp. The energy-saving base also provides quick optimal heat distribution, diffusion, and storage without any hot spots. Safe for induction stoves and warming drawers. Features dripless pouring rim and interior measuring scale. Dishwasher-safe. Limited lifetime warranty. Made in Germany
Fissler Intensa 9-Piece Stainless-Steel Cookware Set Specifications
Serious chefs and design enthusiasts alike will find plenty to admire about the Intensa cookware collection. Made by prestigious German company Fissler (founded in 1845 and still family owned), Intensa has won numerous international awards and employs the latest technology to deliver top cooking performance. Plus, the handsome conical-shaped pieces are stackable, versatile, and backed by a lifetime warranty against defects, so they're perfect for regular use in the most demanding of home kitchens.
Included in this handy nine-piece set are 2- and 3.4-quart covered high saucepans, a 4-quart covered casserole, a 6.9-quart covered high stew pot, and a 9-1/2-inch serving pan. Each piece is crafted from heavyweight, polished 18/10 stainless steel for even heat distribution and stick-, scratch- and corrosion-resistance. Adding energy efficiency and heat retention, the bases hold extra-thick 6mm aluminum cores and have a slightly concave shape with expansion joints so that they sit perfectly flat on any burner when hot. Want something to top that? Well, the lids have a few tricks of their own. Each features Fissler's ThermoStar temperature indicator that changes color for at-a-glance reading, a pouring rim that allows liquids to be drained or held back with a 90-degree twist, and its own holder in the side handle that drips condensation right back into the pot. The only piece without a lid, the serving pan, can borrow from the stew pot or casserole for a perfect fit. Finishing touches include melamine handles for cool carrying and a convenient measuring scale on the inner walls of the pots and pans. Intensa also goes safely into the dishwasher and is suitable for all range types. How's that for thoughtful design? --Kara Karll
