Bought this set previously from Peters of Kensington and very happy with it. This is the same price but includes delivery in metro for free. I also got a pop up $10 voucher but I didn’t read the conditions before it went away so might be even cheaper.
Some cashback options worth looking at too.
Apparently Not doing delivery anymore. Minimax has 15 stores across Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania. Store finder.
Do they stack well for putting them away?

I have mine in a pull our drawer. You will need to make allowance for the frying pan handle.
Cheers!
Sheesh your kitchen looks super commerical
We did a warehouse conversion 30 years ago and leant into it. We have super deep benches to sit the appliances on, we pull them forward for use. We got stainless steel bench tops with a dual set in sink so stuff just gets swiped into the sink without catching.
Not commercial grade kitchen but it does work well for us.
About to say so… love the industrial style
How hot do the handles get while cooking? I've not had good experiences with steel handles.
The handles seem to be fine but we mainly use in induction mode.

My commment from last thread
"I've got a set of these i've been beating on for 15 years. Still look brand new. These + a well seasoned cast iron skillet can cover you for life."
I have the large frypan, the 12L stockpot and 3 saucepans. There is only 1 overlap in my set with this
Thanks OP
edit: the $10 off coupon works for this. $169 nice.
in case someone wonders:
"By signing up you receive $10 off your first online order. Minimum spend $100. Only for new online customers. Exclusions apply."
Does the line at the bottom indicate they are stainless steel top with aluminium bottom?
Or are they fully clad, the line is just how they are made?
"Professional quality 18/10 heavy duty stainless steel- for maximum durability" doesn't tell the construction, or deliberately ambiguous.
18/10 is usually code for mediocre make. If you don't abuse it, it'll probably last a long time though. By that I mean, if you just cook normally and not subject it to great changes in temperature and throwing it around.
Doing a bit of Googling
ScanPan doesn’t say but
“Stainless steel
Stainless steel is a popular choice for cookware because it's strong, hard and non-corrosive. It's not the best conductor of heat, so it's often combined with aluminium in multi-layered bases.”

Looks like a disc base and not clad in the sidewalls. Arguably better for induction as you don't have inefficient gas flames creeping over the sides, and sucking out heat.
Probably doesn't matter for gas cooktop if the fame can hit the sides.
For electric cooktop where heat only comes from the bottom fully clad may make a difference.
The description says it has an "impact-bonded base", which makes clear that it is disc-bottomed, not fully clad.
My last scanpan purchase was a dud
This has ten years warranty. It depends on what you bought and why it was a dud.
Bro didn't provide any explanation
I purchased a set of four knives on catch for $14. They were blunt. They couldn’t cut a potato.
Depends on which line you bought
10% cashback on topcashback.
This or impact? I like impact series handle. Bought these yesterday https://www.appliancesonline.com.au/product/scanpan-impact-7…
They're similar levels of construction and quality and the set you got has additional stuff in it, so I think you're pretty good there.
Defo this
Does the frying pan comes with Lid? Or any of the saucepan lid will fit?
You can use the biggest lid for the pan.
Is it worth paying a bit more for this 7 piece set?https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/895245
No
I have the same set and worth it just for the largest pan
Does anyone know how Scanpan stainless steel cookware compares to Cuisinart stainless steel cookware?
Anyone getting their address denied for shipping? My address is middle-of-Sydney af, but saying shipping not available. It did say delivery available when I first got to the site and added it to cart, but I'm now seeing delivery not available. Maybe it all sold out as I was about to pay? Ah well. Might check in the morning.
Same
Out of stock? Can't select a shipping address
Do you use more oil in S/S than on non-stick? Ozbargainer's view on teflon/ceramic?
Yes yiu have to use oil for SS. But I usually only use a teaspoon or so. For eggs I use half teaspoon of margarine instead as it makes the eggs slide around the pan.
I threw away all my non stick stuff and just use SS now. As long as you heat up the pan first, apply the oil until it smokes then you really won't have much issue. Saying that, throwing something cold on, like a steak straight from the fridge, will definitely stick. It's best to let them get to room temp and once cooking, the steak will lift off once it has seared.
Tried doing pancakes and omelettes with previous SS frypan and stuck like stink. Haven’t tried with the current from this set because we have a ScanPan techniq non stick frypan which works really well. However, I should try it.
I have a small (14cm?) SS fry pan from Scanpan and it works alright. I normally heat it up for 4-5 min at medium heat before putting oil and cooking.
No delivery available - only click and collect
I saw from product reviews that some users reported that the handles can trap water inside, especially after washing. This happens because the hollow handle design allows water to seep in through small openings, making it difficult to fully dry.
Has anyone experienced this? If so, how do you avoid this? Thanks
They have stock in a store in my state, but they won't do shipping to me, click and collect only.
Are they heavy ?
I own a large saute pan (28cm i think?) with a lid and yes they are pretty weighty
Fyai, not deliverable to nsw, bugger

No longer able to choose delivery. Click and collect only. Too bad quite far from me.
