Yes, it does. My only complaint. But it couldn't go from stove top to oven if needed if it was another material for handle

Yes，the handle can get hot, but it is fine with a little help of cloth wrapped on.

The handle did not get hot. I have a glass top stove. I do keep the handle outside the heating circle. Hope this helps.

Th handles get hot, not red hot. We use pot holders when moving the pan. It is an excellent pan.

No. If you keep the handle in the upright direction it gets warm but not too hot. If you have the handle bent to the side while boiling it does get hotter, but can still be touched

Yes. The handle does get hot, and you will need a glove or towel. The beauty of these authentic pans is that they get hot very fast...and hence are great for bringing liquids to a boil. The surface discourages sticking, too!

The handle does not get hot. We don't use a mitt to move pan around or serve unless you grab the handle near the pan which we don't. Little extra info we have had this pan since June of 2012 and it still works great. We do use it at least once a week.

No it does not. It is a single layer of glass and it gets very hot but the handle does not seem to get hot. I hope this helps.

I have had no issues with the handles getting hot. I haven't really used the pot lids during cooking, so I cannot comment on that. I also have done much transferring from cook top to oven to finish off a dish.

The handle does not get very hot, however the lever thats attached to the lid gets very hot and has to be handled with care to avoid getting burned.

I haven't tried it, but I'm guessing no. The handle would get hot, I'm sure. It's not cast iron like the rest.

Relatively speaking, it certainly does. As an example, I heat the pan for 5 mins first, then heat oil in it for another 4 mins or so. Then cook a fried egg in it, which is probably about another 3 mins. The handle will warm up slightly near the pan, but where you grab it, it stays perfectly cool enough for normal use. (Should point out that my 'prep time' is for the all stainless, not the 'non stick')

Kathy, The handles definitely do get hot when you use the removable case-iron insert on a stove. I always use pot holders to move the cast-iron insert off a burner. It's such an advantage to be able to brown food before you cook it in the slow-cooker that I don't mind using the pot holders.

High heat on any pan other than cast iron is not the best for them and your food.I have not had this problem with the handle getting to hot to handle.

Yes. No matter what I have cooked on the cooktop the handle has never gotten hot. However, once I left the handle turned and it was over a recently shut off burner and it did get warm, not hot. But I would imagine left for a prolonged period it would have gotten hot enough to burn.

Yes, the handle stays cool. I can't remember a time when it got hot. After heating and the cover still on, steam can escape around the part of the cover over the handle. Remove the cover after heating and there is no problem.
