Marks & Spencer’s latest cookware range, created in collaboration with Michelin-starred chef Tom Kerridge, has been praised for its affordability and performance. With prices starting at £25 for a saucepan, the collection aims to cater to home cooks of all levels.
After a two-week testing period, the cookware impressed with its versatility and thoughtful design. The nesting set, comprising a griddle pan, shallow casserole dish, and a deeper 5-litre pot with a single lid, was a particular highlight for its space-saving and multifunctional qualities. The middle pan proved ideal for braising, roasting, and baking, allowing dishes to move seamlessly from hob to oven.
The cast iron casserole dish, priced at £45, was noted for its durability and performance, rivaling premium brands like Le Creuset. It features a Belgian frit enamel finish and is available in midnight blue or black matte. The stainless steel saucepan, with a thick copper disc in the base for even heating, also earned praise for its all-purpose capability, including oven-safe use.
While some larger items may be unwieldy for small kitchens, the range’s thoughtful design and ease of cleaning were commended. The griddle pan requires initial seasoning, but once prepared, it performs well for grilling vegetables and meats.
