Suitable cookware
Hestan Cue cookware is always required when using guided (smart) cooking functionality and recommended for any general, non-guided cooking (such as to make your own family recipes!). For non-guided (non "smart") cooking, you can also use other types of cookware on your Cue cooktop as long as the cookware is:
- Magnetic / induction-compatible
- Flat-bottomed
- Has at least an 18/0 stainless steel base
- Has a base diameter between 5" (12cm) and 10½" (26cm).
