Husband side’s Italian family or friends, they are extremely proud of Lagostina pots and pans. What do you think of this brand? Are they any good?

I think the Lagostina Accademia series at least is very nice stuff. I have the 24cm and 28cm frypans.

Lagostina is a good brand. The make various lines, the top ones being high quality and fit & finish. They make one hybrid line called Accademia Lagofusion, which is clad up the sides AND has a thick bottom disk attached. IIRC, the bottom disks are not fully-encapsulated, so if you must DW, Lago might not be the best choice.

I have the Accademia Lagofusion 24 cm frypan and lid - it’s a deep pan, and curved, in case no one has seen a picture of it. It’s very nice. Very well made. I use it mostly to finish sauced pasta in. I like it a lot.

Where are these different lines listed? The official website does not list them:
https://www.lagostinausa.com/Collections

It offers a choice between anodized, SS, and copper, and the SS link only offers a choice between glass lids and metal. Are there lines elsewhere that are not available in the US? (Wouldn’t be the first time.)

This catalog is the best I have found for checking what they have:

You can browse for individual pieces this site here below then, or try google for something you found in the catalog.

I linked to the Accademia Lagofusion series,but you can try “products” and go from there for more.

I believe US people have been buying from European Amazon sites. I bought mine from .de.

Thanks.

I have three Lagostina pieces and they all perform very well, probably my favorites of the SS pans, they can create a deep fond without burning and are very easy to clean and handle. I have the 22 cm stockpot, the 26 cm stew pot, and the 26 cm serving pan (rondeau). I got pretty good deals on these on Amazon Europe sites that I don’t know if we’ll ever see again.
