Low sides so the spreader can reach the edge · review
Russell Hobbs Metallic Marble 25 cm (9.8 in) review
The cheapest pan in the whole catalog and a straightforward one: 25 cm (9.8 in) of cast aluminum with a marble-effect nonstick surface, flat sides, and every hob type including induction.
What we would actually buy Cheap, cast, and correctly shaped. Buy a 25 cm (9.8 in) spreader with it.
What you are getting
A 25 cm (9.8 in) cast aluminum pan with low, flat sides and a marble-effect nonstick surface. The shape is the specification: a crêpe pan is a frying pan with the walls taken off, so a spreader can reach the rim in one sweep.
What is not in the box
A spreader. It matters more than it sounds, because a spreader must match the pan: a 25 cm (9.8 in) pan wants a 25 cm (9.8 in) spreader, and using a short one is why the first three crêpes tear.
The handle
Soft-touch, comfortable, and not oven safe. For a crêpe pan that is no loss — nothing about crêpes involves an oven.
Where it sits
Bottom of this hub and bottom of the catalog. The pans above it add a spreader, a heavier body, or in one case a completely different material.
Availability
On sale at around $60 on the American Amazon store at the time of checking.

The questions that come in
Is a spreader included?
No, and it matters: a spreader should match the pan diameter. Using a 20 cm (7.9 in) spreader in a 25 cm (9.8 in) pan is the usual reason the first three crêpes tear.
Can it be used for omelettes?
Yes — the flat, low profile that suits crêpes is the same shape that suits a flat omelette, and the maker describes it as both.
