IKEA Frying Pans TOP5 picks, from Nonstick to Cast Iron

IKEA 365+ is a 28cm pan with a stainless steel body and a sol-gel ceramic nonstick coating. It is worth considering if you often fry or sauté eggs and vegetables and do not want to start by learning how to use an uncoated pan. Its curved interior is designed with stirring and sautéing in mind.

The thick base sandwiches aluminum between layers of stainless steel. It works on various cooktops, including induction, and in the oven, accommodating cooking that involves switching between appliances. It requires hand washing, so SENSUELL is a better fit if your routine is to put the pan straight into the dishwasher after cooking.

HEMKOMST adds a sol-gel ceramic nonstick coating to a 28cm stainless steel pan. It has an aluminum layer between 2 layers of stainless steel, a construction the manufacturer describes as designed to distribute heat evenly. It is an option for those who prefer a metal body and handle while retaining a coated cooking surface.

It is 5cm high and 48cm long including the handle. Although it has the same height and diameter as IKEA 365+, its overall length is 1cm shorter, a measurement worth comparing if your kitchen cabinet has limited depth. It supports induction and oven use, and the handle loop allows hanging storage. Wash it by hand after use.

SENSUELL is a stainless steel frying pan without a nonstick coating. It uses a 3-layer material with aluminum sandwiched between stainless steel, extending through the sides as well as the base. The official instructions recommend heating the pan strongly first, then reducing the temperature by half when cooking the food, so choosing it means learning heat control rather than using it just like a coated pan.

SENSUELL is the only 24cm pan in this selection. It suits situations where the usefulness of a smaller pan and easy cleaning matter more than spreading out a large batch of food to cook at once. Its handle is made of stainless steel and silicone rubber, and it is suitable for the dishwasher, induction cooktops, and the oven.

VARDAGEN is a 28cm cast iron frying pan. The manufacturer describes the material as distributing heat evenly and retaining heat well. It has 2 handles for carrying with both hands and supports induction and oven use.

Its care routine differs from that of a coated pan. It is pretreated with vegetable soybean oil, and requires consideration of both hand washing and seasoning. The official seasoning instructions call for oiling the entire surface, heating it in the oven or on a cooktop at up to 150°C for at least 1 hour, then allowing it to cool and wiping off excess oil. The instructions also explain that corrosion, food stains, or stuck-on burnt food can be cleaned with steel wool or an abrasive sponge, followed by re-seasoning.

The official online store currently marks it as Last chance. When checked on October 31, 2026, it was in stock at Goyang and not sold at Gwangmyeong, so checking stock at your intended purchase location comes first.

KLIPPFISK is an aluminum pan with a sol-gel ceramic nonstick coating. Its solid rubberwood handle and dark grey-blue color give it a different look from pans with metal handles. It is worth a look if you consider both the handle material and how the pan looks when bringing food to the table.

Pouring spouts on both sides let right- and left-handed users choose their pouring direction. This is a useful difference to consider when transferring sauce served with sautéed ingredients or liquid left in the pan. It measures 28cm, works on various cooktops including induction, and requires hand washing after use.
