Stellar 1000 Classic Deep Saucepan (20cm, 3.2L)

The Stellar 1000 Classic Deep Saucepan is a 20 cm, 3.2-litre workhorse designed for everything from simmering ugali to making soups and custards for the whole family. Its hot-forged base distributes heat evenly across the entire surface, so you get a consistent simmer without scorching the bottom of your food — a common frustration with thinner pans. The body is crafted from mirror-polished 18/10 stainless steel, which resists rust and staining even after years of daily use and repeated dishwasher cycles. The 3.2-litre capacity is generous enough for family-sized portions yet compact enough to store easily in most kitchen cupboards. A helper handle sits opposite the main long handle, making it safer and more comfortable to lift when the pan is full. Stellar is a well-regarded British kitchenware brand, and this pan works on all hob types — gas, ceramic, halogen, and induction — so it will move with you even if you change your cooker. It is also oven-safe up to 210 °C, letting you start a dish on the hob and finish it in the oven without changing vessels. Pair it with the matching Stellar 1000 frying pan for a co-ordinated, hard-wearing kitchen set.
