Stellar
Stellar Eclipse 3-Piece Saucepan Set
Three uncoated tri-ply saucepans with steel lids
Editorial review Reviewed 23 October 2026 How we assess products
Stellar Eclipse supplies 16, 18 and 20cm uncoated saucepans with weighted steel lids. Its aluminium core spreads heat up the sides as well as across the base, useful for soup and custard. Slim handles, pouring rims and internal measures help with everyday serving. All hob types, including induction, are supported. The lid handles get hot, so use oven gloves. Steel interiors still need moderate heat, stirring and a soak when food catches. Dishwasher cleaning and oven use are permitted; follow the lower temperature limit supplied with your particular set. Choose this focused trio if you already own a frying pan. Salter Timeless is the budget alternative; Kuhn Rikon Allround adds see-through lids. Stellar’s lifetime guarantee covers its stated manufacturing terms, rather than all wear or misuse.
