Zwilling J.A. Henckels Spirit Thermolon



The Zwilling J.A. Henckel is renowned for the top of German steel knives since 1895, for making better design and quality products for comfy home living. When launching the cookware line, their products are expected for trustful quality, breezy cooking and green living. Made of 3-mm thick of wholly clad with tri-ply construction with aluminum core for improving heat conductivity (like clad cookware), the Spirit series show the excellent ability of cooking and energy efficiency. This is a rare nonstick gear which allows medium-high to high heat.

Whereas the PTFE-and PFOA-free feature makes surely satisfied for safety-conscious some, the Themolon ceramic nonstick surface quite do further fulfillment for high heat resistance, oven-safe and broiler-safe up to 400 degree F, as well as totally nonstick surfaces. Moreover, it’s practical with most types of stoves, includes gas, electric, ceramic and induction stovetops.

The all-around instruction feels well-built, even for the nonstick surfaces. The stainless-steel rivets and handles are sturdy and stay cool enough to prevent burns. The weight in hand is good, solidly great like a nice gear. The easy-to-pour rims works well for preventing spill over liquids. It’s dishwasher-safe, but we still recommend hand washing. What’s more? This product carries a lifetime warranty.

For more reviews, the Zwilling Spirit got satisfied rating, B+, from Good Housekeeping (for 12”pan) for non-toxic pan, wholly nonstick surface and good sloped rim. While Men’s Journal Magazine picked it as one of best four non-Teflon pans. We also found many positive reviews from William Sonoma, Chef’s Catalog, Chef’s Resource and many cookery retailers.



Like typical norms, it should be prevented from metal tools, scratchy sponges and extremely high temperature. We found a few complaints about losing nonstick feature after months of uses; however, most of users didn’t experience this. Thus, we suggest following the manufacturer’s instruction strictly.
