For buyers who'd rather not spend £70 on a frying pan, the Tefal Expertise Plus is the sensible everyday choice from the category's most established non-stick brand. It's sold as individual induction pans in 24cm, 28cm and 30cm, uses a reinforced PTFE non-stick Tefal markets as scratch-resistant, and carries the Thermo-Spot indicator that shows when the pan reaches optimum cooking temperature — a genuinely useful cue the pricier rivals here lack. Its lighter aluminium body is easier for one-handed everyday cooking. The catch, and the reason it sits below the ProCook, is durability: a thinner PTFE pan at this price tends to lose its release faster and there's no decade-long guarantee, so it's best treated as a low-cost consumable. Prices shown were displayed as promotional and are indicative rather than fixed RRP.
The good & the bad
Pros
- Roughly a third the price of the forged and titanium options — the clear value pick
- Thermo-Spot heat indicator signals optimum cooking temperature
- Lighter aluminium body is easy to handle one-handed
Cons
- Thinner PTFE coating tends to wear faster with heavy daily use
- No long guarantee, so best viewed as a periodically-replaced pan
