Frequently Asked Questions

Products > General
Can the BoOh!gle induction mat be used regardless of the induction cooktop brand?

Some cooktop brands may not recommend using an induction mat, so please contact the manufacturer of your specific cooktop to confirm.

Products > General
Is the mat necessary when using an induction cooktop?

Sliding cookware across the cooktop surface can cause scratches, so if your goal is to protect the cooktop surface from everyday scratches, we strongly recommend using an induction mat.

Products > General
Can BoOh!gle cookware be used on induction cooktops?

BoOh!gle cookware has a stainless steel 430 base, so it works on induction cooktops. However, a few cooktop brands may fail to detect it please check the brand list below.
Cooktop brands with detection issues or reduced compatibility: Siemens, Amway, De Dietrich, Electrolux

Products > General
What should I be careful of when using a gas stove or burner?

When using a high flame on a gas stove or burner, the flame can wrap up around the sides of the cookware, so please take care. If the detachable handle or the silicone parts of the glass lid are directly exposed to the flame, scorching or damage may occur please be careful.

Products > General
What colors are available?

Four colors are currently available: Black, Burgundy, Beige, and Green. If you have a color request, we'll take it into account for future product development.

Products > General
Can I clean it with a scrubber?

Yes, you can clean it with dish soap and a soft scrubber. If it doesn't come fully clean, add a few drops of vinegar with water to the pan and heat it.

Products > General
Is it okay to clean it with dish soap?

We recommend hand-washing with water and dish soap.

Products > General
Can it go in the dishwasher?

The handle and lid can be dishwasher-cleaned, but we generally don't recommend it for the BoOh!gle pan series, since the high-pressure steam can shorten the coating's lifespan.

Products > Cookware
What is the difference between fluoropolymer (Teflon-type) and hBN coating?

Fluoropolymer coating offers excellent non-stick performance but has weaker durability and scratches easily, and can potentially release harmful gases when the pan exceeds 280°C. Ceramic coating, on the other hand, is more durable with no carcinogen exposure risk, but its non-stick performance is relatively lower than fluoropolymer.

Products > Cookware
How long does the non-stick coating last?

The lifespan of the non-stick coating varies depending on usage conditions and frequency. To extend the coating's life, use medium heat or lower, and avoid heating an empty pan with no ingredients in it.

Products > Cookware
Do I need to preheat before use?

When using the frying pan or grill pan, spread oil evenly inside the pan and preheat for about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Once preheated, an oil film forms that helps maintain the coating longer and results in better-tasting food.

Products > Cookware
Why is low-to-medium heat enough for the grill pan and frying pan?

To preserve non-stick performance and the coating, low-to-medium heat is recommended for all coated pans but this traditionally meant slower cooking. BoOh!gle addressed this by adding platinum, which acts as a heat catalyst, improving heat conductivity even at low-to-medium heat. On any heat source, the Nemo series frying pan and grill pan cook everything quickly at low-to-medium heat saving energy while keeping the non-stick coating intact longer.

What is the genuine product exchange service?

It's a trade-in service designed to help both the environment and your kitchen. All pans and pots are consumable over time the coating wears off or gets scratched from use, requiring periodic replacement. Send us the pan, pot, or grill pan you want to replace, and you can exchange it for life at less than 50% of the retail price. See the Genuine Exchange menu for details.

Products > Cookware
How should I clean it before first use?

Before using a new product, gently wipe it with a scrubber and neutral detergent using lukewarm water.

Products > Cookware
How should I clean it after use?

For light cooking like fried eggs, wiping with a paper towel is enough.
If you cooked something oily, wipe off the grease with a paper towel first, soak the pan in hot water for a while, then clean it with a soft scrubber and neutral detergent.
If you cooked something salty, like sauces or soups, do a light clean with a soft scrubber and neutral detergent, then soak it in water for an extended period and make sure all salt residue is fully removed before storing.
Storing the pan while salt residue remains can damage the coating, so please be careful.

Products > Cookware
Is it 100% ceramic?

The BoOh!gle Nemo series has a 100% ceramic coating, providing both internal/external durability and non-stick performance.

Products > Cookware
What cooking utensils do you recommend?

For all coated pans, we recommend wooden or silicone utensils.

Products > Cookware
Can it be used over a campfire or charcoal fire while camping?

Absolutely, yes.

Products > Handle
The Multi Safe Handle melted!

Using high heat on a gas stove or cooking for extended periods can cause the silicone on the Multi Handle to melt from direct flame exposure. Please use with caution.
Use the handle for quick stir-frying or for lifting and moving the cookware.

Products > Handle
What is the weight capacity of the Multi Safe Handle?

It can support up to 10kg.

Products > Glass Lid
Can the silicone parts be sterilized in boiling water?

The silicone handle and the silicone cover on the glass lid can be sterilized with boiling water or a microwave. When sterilizing the lid's silicone cover, separate it from the tempered glass and sterilize the silicone alone.

Products > Glass Lid
Won't the glass break?

BoOh!gle's tempered glass lids use only tempered glass that has passed a steel-ball drop test. You can use it with confidence.

Products > Glass Lid
The silicone handle won't come off the lid!

Gently pull the small protruding tab on the silicone handle, and it will separate easily from the lid.

Products > Glass Lid
The silicone handle keeps falling off.

Please make sure the silicone handle is fully attached to the glass lid before use.
After attaching it, press down firmly once more to release any trapped air this creates suction so it won't fall off.
The silicone handle cannot be used on uneven surfaces.

Products > Glass Lid
How do I clean the glass lid?

Just wash it as you would normal dishes. Removing the silicone cover from the glass lid before washing keeps it more hygienic.

Products > Scrubber, Dishcloth
Can these be used multiple times?

The Bboh-song dishcloth is made of 100% cotton, so it's absorbent and has a thick weave.
We recommend using it for one day when cleaning tables or dishes.
As a hand towel, it can be used around 20 times.
The Bboh-deuk scrubber resists bacterial growth and has a sturdy fabric, so it can be used for more than one day.

Products > Scrubber, Dishcloth

Both the Bboh-song dishcloth and Bboh-deuk scrubber come in sets of 30.

Products > Induction Mat
How do I clean it?
