J'ai acheté plein de prima matera,Une seule utilisation sur une plaque induction, puis lavageJe ne l'ai PAS passée à la machine a laverJuste à l'eau chaude avec liquide vaisselle sans grattoirJe n'arrive pas a enlever toutes les taches d'eau sur l'extérieur, certaines sont bleutéesNi les chiffons doux ni le liquide vaisselle n'enlèvent les tâchesJ'ai pas l'intention de passer a la pate a polir a chaque utilisation.bref, contacté le support par email, réponse standardisée inutile après 15 jours d'attente --> client pas content

Sehr Gut

Ich bin mit der konstanten Wärmeverteilung sehr zufrieden. DeBruyer PrimaMatera ist einfach genial.

Leute, leute.....es gibt nichts besseres, Qualität stimmt, Verarbeitung stimmt, :)Das Produkt ist das Geld wert

Der Topf ist einfach super. Er wird auf meinem Bora Kochfeld komplett erkannt. Der Topf heizt gleichmäßig auf und die Topfwände heizen simultan mit auf. Mit meinem Infrarotthermometer ziemlich gleichmäßige Temperaturverteilung gemessen.Ja, der Topf ist sehr teuer und bestimmt nicht für jeden etwas, aber wenn man als Hobbykoch zu Hause versucht das letzte bisschen aus Gerichten herauszubekommen, bestimmt eine Empfehlung. Ich bin mal gespannt wie lange das Kupfer glänzend bleibt....

I have quite a few De Buyer cookware pieces including some Affinity range, and when I saw the French Collection (Mont Bleu) it looked like a great way to fill some gaps in my cookware range and add some chic.The De Buyer French collection is a multi-layer all around, like the All Clad D3 and D5, and induction ready. The Eifflel handle sounds out this is "made in France" by a company making cookware for 190 years, not outsourced to Asia. If you get the matching lid, the handle matches the Eiffel tower base. The lid is designed to drip condensation onto the middle of the food. , similar to Fissler Profi rather than down the edges. It's s serious commercial grade saucepan, it's just for this range De Buyer added a French inspired handle. They started as limited edition and some pieces are already no-longer made (sauteuse with handle) , so I'm sure a time will come when they just make it as the normal Affinity version. I'd love more, but an limited to what Amazon will ship to Australia. Thank you Amazon UK and De Buyer for bringing Australia closer to Europe for shopping.

eine Schraube ist etwas anders als die andere. Das fällt aber nur Perfektionisten auf. Toller Topf, tolles design. Das Polieren ergibt nicht mehr den hellen Anfangsglanz. Dafür habe ich noch keine gute Lösung gefunden

The Prima Matera range is absolutely wonderful with induction cooking. Contrary to what I thought, cast iron is not very good for induction because although it keeps heat well, it doesn't conduct it well. This means that you get terrible hot spots. Further, it reflects heat on both sides, so the safety cut-off of induction hobs will be triggered by cast iron much more quickly than with other pans. I have given up on cast iron for induction cooking except for simmering, where these disadvantages don't matter so much because the heat is spread by the contents of the pan (as opposed to frying a steak, for ex) and the temperature is low .But if you are looking for something that will produce a wonderful sear at relatively low temperatures (about 160°C, so MUCH lower than with cast iron), the Prima Matera range is your beast. I have obtained the kind of thick, beautifully caramelised crust on beef for ex which I had never seen before except in top restaurants. I couldn't believe that you should sear at such 'low' temperatures with copper and burned my first two attempts! But it's true.Another great advantage of copper is that it is such a good conductor that you don't get hot spots, and the whole base of the pan heats up regardless of the size of the induction element. And where it borders onto magic is that if you drop the temperature on the hob, the pan responds within the second! So if you're making a delicate sauce you can drop the temperature instantaneously. Try that with cast iron! Or even 7-ply copper/aluminium steel compounds (like the top range of All Clad or Delemeyere Proline or Atlantis): they are responsive but not by far as much as Prima Matera. The degree of control you get with copper is amazing.Another amazing thing is that because copper is such a good conductor, you hardly need to preheat the Prima Matera pans. And when I say 'hardly', I meant that oil in frying pan will go from cold to smoking hot (not that you should use it that hot with copper) in about... 10-15s. Generally you should always add the oil to a hot pan (it helps the food not to stick) but when I conditioned the steel for the first time I was totally amazed at how fast the oil heated up. I was prepared to wait for 2-3mn as with gas!The biggest drag, perhaps, is that you can't put the pans in the dishwasher. But there is a magic trick: use Barkeeper Stainless Steel. It's really quite miraculous, you just spread some of the powder on the burnt bits (if there are any), use a wet sponge but no extra water, and the burnt stuff just lifts off. It's amazing. Prior to that of course you should do the usual for stainless steel surface (the inner surface is Stainless steel), ie soak it in water with a dash of detergent for 30mn or so.In short: these pans are extortionately expensive. Are they worth it? If you are a keen cook, yes. It must be like the difference between driving a Ferrari (which I have never done!) and a normal car. And a Prima Matera pan won't set you back as much as a Ferrari...

Very nice saucepan, it seems all the multi layer technology works well as I can cook on a very low flame, but the best thing is the rim design, I can pour liquids (soup etc.) from the pan without it trickling down and sticking to the outside. The handle isn't the most comfortable, it is based on the Eifel Tower so not surprising really, but I don't spend long with the pan in my hand so it isn't a concern and it is nice to look at... speaking of which the pan looks gorgeous, especially with the "French Collection" lid which fits very nicely, the finish is superb. It is hard to justify the high price for a saucepan but it will last a lifetime and is an indulgent luxury for anyone who enjoys cooking every day.Finally, it is supposed to be a 'limited edition' but who knows how many items it is 'limited' to!

Perfect!
