not at all! That's one of the things I love about these pans.......have a whole set & use them every day. And, clean up is super easy.......just use lower heat than you're used to.

No, the handle is manufactured with a slight bend to it so it does not get hot at all (just warm to the touch.). Love this strainer for all my loose tea especially green and fine rooibos teas.

Not in my experience. I only put it in for a minute, because my microwave is very powerful, and the handle dies NOT get hot

I have had no problems with the handle heating up while cooking. I have had this pan for several months now and use it frequently. I love it!

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.

Yes it does. It would be nice if the handle was a different material so it wouldn't. Usually I just take it off really fast or use a hot pad.

Handle does not get hot. I have used 5 times and very happy with product. Heats up quickly, cleans easily and variable time works.

The lid and handles do get hot since they are metal. As long as you use pot holders or oven mitts it's fine.

No, the handle is never hot. There are two steam escape holes on the lid. These should be positioned to allow the steam to escape to the side. The handle is also made from a plastic that does not appear to conduct heat.

The handle may warm up after lengthy cooking on a gas stove. The handle will be hot if the pan is placed under a broiler or in a hot oven.

Yes, the handles get hot because they are not plastic or rubber coated including the sides of the pans. They cook evenly and are beautiful and so it is a trade off I guess. You just need a towel or pot holder handy before grabbing anything. If this type of pan is something you really want, you will get used to using them. I have no regrets with my purchase.

It does not. I wanted that feature too considering my children would be using this oven. Since I've had the oven, we have been burned a couple times so we are very aware of the door getting hot. The handle remains cool. I purchased one of those little oven mitts that look like a duck bill, that seems to do the trick with smaller tween-sized hands.

Yes. The handle does get hot, and you will need a glove or towel. The beauty of these authentic pans is that they get hot very fast...and hence are great for bringing liquids to a boil. The surface discourages sticking, too!

Most definitely, it gets hot. Before the egg is even done, you don't dare touch the handle. I have to use an oven mitt. That is my only complaint. It should have a rubber or plastic coated handle. The handle, about 1/8" in diameter, is connected right to the pan, and the heat very quickly conducts to the handle.

Yes. No matter what I have cooked on the cooktop the handle has never gotten hot. However, once I left the handle turned and it was over a recently shut off burner and it did get warm, not hot. But I would imagine left for a prolonged period it would have gotten hot enough to burn.

My handle does not get hot while using it to cook bacon. It might get hot if the flame/electric grill is set on too high a setting but I don't ever use my stove that hot. Mine will get hot if left in front of the oven vent as the heat from the oven goes directly on to the handle and you will have to use a potholder to move it. The only reason it gets hot in that position is because after washing the flat iron, I put it in the middle of my range (near the oven vent area) as a decorative item. Since it is iron and looks nice on my stove, I learned the hard way not to leave it there while my oven is in use.

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