Does this have the extra metal bottom piece like Circulon does? I'm concerned with warping like my Faberware set.

No extra piece/layer on bottom. I've owned mine for 6 months with no warping at all.

This has never happened to me. My first set I kept for 15 years. This one for several months

no, there is no added layers on the bottom. I have used them a lot in the last two months, so far no warping.

I actually own both models with lid and without. I have use both of them extensively and they are both perfect, they clean beautifully and stay shiny and new looking with an occasional scub with "Bar Keepers Friend" cleaner. Whom ever claimed that they had warping issues should seek replacement, I have a kitchen full of All Clad pots and pans and have never had a single issue. Hope his helps with your decision!ps: The difference between the one with lid is a different handle, otherwise the body is identical.

Yes outer element is steel. The pressing handle is okay but it doesn't really make the rotis or tortillas thin.

Other than keeping it on a flat surface, which I do with mine, it should not warp. I have not had that problem.

I've had mine nearly a year.I use it to roast meat and veggies. So far no issue with the pan warping!

I've had no warping. I use it in an electric stove, and have used it in the broiler set on "high."

We have the 10 piece set. I have always liked the look and feel of the Infinite line. We have been using ours for well over 5 years, never stack them when stored, always use nylon utensils, and wash them in the dishwasher. I have noticed that the non-stick surface seems to be wearing thinner, no chips or scratches just seems to be getting thinner fairly uniformly. Also, Circulon's warranty service is really poor. My daughter bought a set and the non-stick surface in the 3 quart pan bubbled soon after she bought it. Circulon claimed claimed the finish was damaged by overheating and would not honor the warranty. We have the 10 piece set. I have always liked the look and feel of the Infinite line.

I have no idea but I can tell you it is sturdy and does not warp or bend. I bought mine about a year ago so hopefully product will be the same. I just love mine and it cleans up easy too!

I am not certain. The one I purchased was a gift. Give me a little time and I will check with her and see. I know that she loved it and used it a lot this summer canning. I would think that it would have at least a small lip or ring to keep it from warping but may be wrong.

I have a glass top stove and we have had no warping and we have had ours now for about 4 months! LOVE LOVE LOVE this set!

I bought this pan for an Indian friend, since their dishes involve sauteing their spices first. I have not used it myself, but do like the Circulon Symmetry line. Sorry couldn't be more of a help here.

Yes, I've used these pans under a broiler on high multiple times. I had no problems with warping like thin, cheaper pans. They are great, solid and thick aluminum.

I have used it several times on our glass top range with no apparent warping. Still nice and flat

Mine did not have any warping. One lip on the saucer section was not quite level when I got it but I gave it a pinch and it snapped into place. I'm still very happy with mine. It looks great especially when lit. If you were looking at that review on you tube I can state that it is an old review and mine had none of those problems. No warping and all decals were placed correctly and lined up straight.

Hi Pat, I had no problems with warping. When I finish cooking in it, most of the time I immerse it in waler to begin soaking and have not had a problem.

They are both made by faber castel and I find absolutely no difference in the two. They both work beautifully plus these are cheaper which is nice:)

Yes, both sizes of the Circulon pans I purchased have the circular ridges on the inside.
