Are these two pans actually different?

No. Both are the Farberware Classic Series 1-quart covered stainless saucepan, model 50000, with the same 4.6 rating from 729 ratings. Buy whichever listing is cheapest and in stock.

Which is better for induction?

Both. The full cap base with aluminum core makes each induction compatible, and both work on gas and electric too.

Is the 1-quart size enough?

It suits rice for two, reheating leftovers, sauces and single servings. For family batches or pasta, step up to a 2- or 3-quart pan.

Can I put it in the oven?

Yes, to 350°F with the stainless lid. Keep the phenolic handle in mind and use oven mitts.

The interior is bare stainless, not nonstick. Heat the pan with oil, butter or water before adding food.

Is it worth the price?

At $15.39 at Amazon as of November 3, 2026, it is a low-cost entry to induction-ready stainless. Expect discoloration and possible handle wear over years of use.
