What is the diameter of the inside base of the pan? If I need an 8-inch cooking diameter; do I need the 10" size pan?

I have several of these pans so not sure which one you are referring to. The sauté pan which I use as frying, wok, casserole is 10" diameter and 8" base. I use on induction and love them!

The lip on under side of this lid is 6 and 7/8 inches in diameter. I don't know the size of the 10" skillet you refer to. You will need to measure for yourself.

The one that I purchased was a 9" pan. I have a 10" also and it stores inside of it when not in use.

More or less. You can cover the 8" skillet with the sauce pan lid, but it is not tight, but I doubt you will need it tight. My wife does this all the time. There is a lid for the skillet with the helper (they call it 3 qt saute with lid. That is piece I would use if I needed covered skillet. The lid for the 8 qt. probably gets very close for the 10" skillet. We have not used it that way. One other answer says no and one says yes. Think they are both right.

I use a 10" USA metal pan for browning. It is 7" on the bottom. I use a 10" ring which is 8.25" on the inside and 10.25" on the outside. The 9" ring is probably 7.25" on the inside and 9.25 on the outside.I use Pillsbury pie dough or make my own because the frozen crusts are so fragile. Measure the 9" crust across to decide. If it is more than 9" buy the 10" size . If less the 9". I bake for 15 minutes before adding the ring.

I measured the diameter across the base using only the inside lip and it was approximately 10 1/2 inches. I measured the lid only (without the base) and found the highest point to be approximately 4 3/4 inches - setting on the base adds a little more. I use a (pretty old) standard Bundt cake pan and my cakes fit with ease. My pan is similar to the Nordic ware pro cast bundt pan if you want to look it up on Amazon and compare.

I just measured my pan and measuring the inside of the pan it is 10". The 10" lid fits it perfectly. If your pan is 10.5" it is too big.

A lid is available for the 10" but an 8" lid is not available and this skillet has to be used as an open fry pan. Allclad does not make one for that Emerilware piece. Another make and manufacturer's glass top may fit if you look and compare.

I had the same question. Interior diameter is 11 inches at the top and about 9 at the bottom. Interior pan depth is 3.5 inches. The lid adds an additional .5 inch at the edge increasing to about 2 in the middle. Hope it helps. You definitely want the details before spending that kind of money on a cooker.

The pan is 2 1/8" deep with nicely sloped sides for easy flipping and turning. It is just a tad short of 12" inside diameter. I find it much less restrictive than a 10" pan. The extra diameter is well worth the few extra dollars.

I bought a 10 inch and a 8 inch and they both fit the pans I have very good.

The sauté pan is 11" diameter and no, the lids do not fit the 10" & 8" fry pan. It is a great set, I love it.

The diameter of the larger circle is 10.5" like everyone else has said. I use pots that are almost 10" in diameter. These ==> 1 X New Professional Commercial Grade 8 QT (Quart) Heavy-Gauge Stainless Steel Stock Pot, 3-Ply Clad Base, Induction Ready, With Lid Cover NSF Certified ItemHope this helps.

The answer is two inches. My pan is a 12" skillet. You can fit a whole extra piece of chicken in a 12" pan that won't fit in a 10". Frankly, you need both, and I already had a 10" skillet. I would have bought the 14" but my stove probably isn't large enough.

8 inch pan looks different than 10 inch one ...the inner has the connecting line from bottom and the standing wall, isnt it? will be hard to wash..the 10 inch is all one piece and looks smooth at the bottom ..am i right? i wish the 8 inch looks the same as 10 inche one. ..Would some one let me know if they are not the same

Both the 8 inch and 10 inch lids fit my T-Fal "coated" 8 and 10 skillets...As to the stainless steel skillet, I don't know since my stainless skillet is a different brand...The inside rim of the lids fit inside the diameter of the pans and leave slight "wiggle" room...I have found that the fit is tight enough for the lid to collect steamy moisture during cooking and seals enough that contents do not boil out from under the lid...I have been pleased with the performance of these lids...I was grateful to find them...The outer rim of the lid rests on the outer edge of the skillet and this is where the "seal" is on my pans...I hope this helps!
