Compare the Meyer Centennial 24cm and 28cm stainless steel frypans. Learn which size suits your cooking style and kitchen needs.

Quick answer

Choose the 24cm Meyer Centennial frypan for solo meals and delicate tasks like eggs; pick the 28cm when cooking for two or more and needing more surface area.

Size matters: 24cm vs 28cm

The main difference between the 24cm and 28cm Meyer Centennial frypans is cooking capacity. The 24cm is ideal for smaller portions—eggs, vegetables, or chicken pieces—while the 28cm offers more surface area for larger meals or batch cooking.

Both pans share the same construction: an aluminium core and impact-bonded tri-ply base for fast, even heating. This means your choice comes down to how much food you typically cook, not performance.

Induction compatibility and heating

Both sizes are induction-ready, so they work on modern induction cooktops. The tri-ply base distributes heat evenly, reducing hot spots—useful for searing or sautéing.

If you have a smaller burner, the 24cm may heat more efficiently; the 28cm might overhang a compact burner, affecting heat distribution.

Trade-offs at a glance

  • 24cm frypan: Best for solo cooks or small households. Handles eggs, vegetables, and chicken pieces with precision. Takes less storage space and heats quickly on smaller burners. If you often cook for one, the 24cm is your go-to.
  • 28cm frypan: Provides more cooking surface for larger portions, such as family stir-fries or multiple chicken breasts. Requires more storage and a larger burner for even heating. Choose the 28cm if you regularly cook for two or more.
  • Twin pack option: Buying the 24/28cm twin pack gives you both sizes at a better value than purchasing separately. Ideal if your cooking needs vary daily. Consider the twin pack if you want flexibility without compromise.
