Do the handles on the skillet get hot when it is in use?

Yes, the handles on the skillet get as when it is in use on ANY setting, as does the lid and lid handle, controller, feet, and of course the pan itself. REAL hot.

Not that I have noticed. With the rubberized feet. we don't move it much while cooking.

not really- I always use potholders anyway- the cover does get hot from the steam and cooking. It will be plugged in = in 1 place so you wont be moving it- bu the cover does get hot. After cooking, after you have the food out let it cool properly before cleaning it

The handles gets warmish if the pan is kept on the stove for say longer than say 20 minutes. I use a gas stove and it could be because of the high flames radiating on to the handles. I would recommend using a mitt. But it a small con considering the quality of the product. I have been using it for more than 3 years and still rave about it.

Yes, the handles do get hot. Also, the directions that come with this pot recommend that it not be used at high heat. The manufacturer recommends using it at no higher than medium heat. The pot heats very quickly because of the halogen core.

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 is also made of cast iron. I have not had it get too hot to touch, if that is what you are wondering.

No. The handle stays cool enough. Usually not cooking at very high temperature with this non stick grill pan.

The handles are not completely heat-resistant. However, if I have cooked something for a short amount of time, say 20 minutes or less, I can hold the pans by their handles. If I need to use a pan for an extended time, I need a pot holder. If what I am cooking makes a lot of steam, the handles will get pretty warm, hot over an extended time. But I find my supposedly head-resistant handles will do that in the presence of steam also. All in all, I am pleased with how these handles respond to heat.

The handles can become hot. If just heating up something they are fine. But if something takes a while to cook I do need to use a pot holder

No, the handle does not get warm or hot. Plus this lid fits every pot and pan I own cleans up so well in dishwasher, it looks like new. Don't hesitate, buy it, you won't be sorry.

No, they stay cool, as long as you don't have them over a heat source (or in the oven, OBVIOUSLY). Under normal use, I have not had the handles get hot at all. Love this set. I am careful when washing and have not had any problems so far.

Yes - in my experience, the handles do not get hot. I can grab them without any problem while cooking.

The stock pot handles get warm. The other handles are long enough that they don't get uncomfortably warm. I would also like to add, that I love my pots. I have not had any problem cleaning them. I deglaze the skillets with water while the pan is hot and they clean right up. If necessary soaking the pans loosens up any food that my still be in the pan.

No, I haven't noticed any heat coming from the handles. Hope that helps. So far this has been a great product!
