Utilizing a custom-formulated stone-derived coating from Germany, the Stone Earth Frying Pan by Ozeri reigns with its ability to deliver non-stick perfection while remaining absolutely free of toxic substances such as APEO, GenX fluorinated chemicals, PFBS, PFOS, PFOA, and the lesser known NMP and NEP. According to the FDA, many of these chemicals constitute a worrisome class of nonstick compounds that have found their way into the food chain, including grocery store meats and seafood. Both the EPA and FDA have conducted toxicology research on exposure to some of these compounds that suggest associations with several kinds of cancers and health issues. Although the harmful PFOA and PFOS acids are being phased out of production, non-stick coatings today are often made with the aid of a new generation of fluoropolymers, known as GenX fluorinated chemicals and PFBS, which the EPA has more recently cited as suggestive of cancer and when consumed, may affect the kidneys, blood, immune system, liver and developing fetuses. Also of concern are APEO chemicals, which are restricted in Germany due to environmental concerns and toxicity in the food chain. By not using any of these ‘forever chemicals,’ the Stone Earth Pan's coating stands ahead of the curve, achieving the highest marks for food safety and environmental health. In addition, the Stone Earth Pan’s coating is applied using a water-based technique that is also free of the lesser known but potentially harmful chemicals NMP and NEP, sometimes found in cookware. The Stone Earth Pan is far more durable and scratch-resistant than other non-stick surfaces, and always a breeze to clean. The Stone Earth Frying Pan is made of a heavy-gauge aluminum core that allows for fast and even cooking without hot spots. It boasts a magnetized bottom for rapid heat transfer on induction stoves, and a heat-resistant silicone-coated handle. Coating made by Weilburger GmbH, Germany. Pan assembled in China. Satisfaction guaranteed.

Poor product.
i initially wrote that this was a great product, and it was the first few weeks of use. I have had this for only 2 months and all the covering on top of the pan has come off and it no longer is non stick it's terrible! £35 for this I am deeply disappointed. I thought it was "stone" surface, no it definitely isn't.

Excellent product
Having been in a position where my existing pan had seen its better days long ago and given the fact that I've just fitted my new kitchen, from bare walls to my wife's finishing touches I decided it was time to get a new pan. I have to say I was very naive about the concerns over the harmful chemicals released from non stick technology. Then I found this beauty, I know it sounds weird to be describing a pan in such a way but I cannot stress enough how this pan has pleased me, from its design, it's looks, its performance and it's price( I'd have payed double if I'm honest) I've used it on a number of occasions and its performed effortlessly, from cooking a whole English breakfast, a Thai green chicken curry and one or two risottos. I did as directed, used a teaspoon of olive oil to season it, wiping it around and removing the excess and since then never looked back. Cleaning it is a breeze, I've had no issues whatsoever with anything sticking to it, everything has just rinsed/wiped straight off. Food is very well cooked and the temperature throughout the pan seems well distributed. I'm not sure what else needs to be said, but yourself one, see for yourself, you won't regret it.

l bought this pan in 2015, had problems with it within a few months everything began to stick , company replaced item, but, l have never had faith in it, it began to stick again, did everything by the book, cleaned with lemon juice etc, was ok for a few days then was back to sticking again, a friend of mine purchased the 20cm size, and never had a problem, seems a different finish, ie the coating

This pan was purchased earlier in the year and arrived as per the companies promise. The pan was very packed and first use of the pan did take place for a number of days (big pan), following the manufactures instructions in first use using virtually no oil and a low temperature the pan performed as expected.However a couple of weeks later the pan was used to home made burgers and enough oil was poured into the pan to cover the base, it was at this point that it became obvious there was a defect in the pan base...all the oil ran to the side of the pan indicating there was a dome effect in the pan base.We contacted the manufacturer to point out the fault and their initial response was positive and the would replace the pan....this was 4 weeks ago, after 2 weeks had passed we again contacted the manufacturer who said the new pan had been dispatched on the 22nd November but would contact logistics and have another pan sent...we are still waiting and now the manufacturer does not respond to e-maila

Terrible pan and service
Terrible service and terrible pan. The coating started sticking and all turned brown. When I contacted the company it was still under warranty and they promised a replacement pan as I sent them photos to show the issue. They never sent the replacement and have stopped replying to my emails. Terrible do not waste your money.

what a gorgeous product!I was always a Tefal user but had enough of their quickly retiring cookware and decided to look elsewhere. I never had a light coloured pan either and the reviews didn't inspire me much, but I went with this out of sheer curiosity. it is gorgeous. light but sturdy. it is SO easy to clean and absolutely nothing sticks. I use very little olive oil which I spread around evenly before cooking, using a silicone brush (helps use less oil when cooking too). I read their instructions which also said to remove excess oil to avoid sticking (using a paper napkin) I didn't have this issue thx to the brush.I have now owned it for just over 3 months and it still looks new, the only telltale is slight discoloration on one corner on the underside of the pan (maybe due to my gas hob idk)I guess if I had to nitpick I'd say the only slight downside are the handle pins, they are exposed on the inside of the pan and food sticks to then a bit which adds extra scrubbing when cleaning. however I love the aesthetic of it so tbh, it does not really bother me all that much, since a quick soak removes all grime.I have cooked all sorts of foods and no discoloration is happening, which was my n1 fear. I love this pan.

2 year update. Fantastic Non-Stick Pan. Very highly recommended
Date of review: 11/10/18Date of purchase: 12/10/16I find long term reviews to be very useful in my decision making when buying off Amazon. I bought this pan 2 years ago and have been using it at least 3 to 4 times a week on a gas hob. I use it for all sorts of cooking. I follow the instructions of giving it a wipe with some vegetable (rapeseed) before use and I wash it after it has cooled with a non-stick friendly sponge. This has been by far the best and longest serving non-stick pan I've had the pleasure of owning. The non-stick remains to be excellent. I can't say it was as good as the first time I bought it but I would say it is at least 90% as good as it was new. Eggs still slide off, pancakes don't stick and it remains supremely easy to clean. The silicone handle is problem free and remains tightly attached to the pan. There are some light scratches on the surface but they all seem very superficial (please look at the attached photos) My cooking utensils are silicone or wood. The base is a bit stained but doesn't affect its function at all. The cooking surface as well remains flat. The highest heat I would use the pan on would be a medium/high for cooking steaks. I bought it initially because it stated that it was APEO and PFOA free. I am very happy to give this the highest recommendation. Thanks for reading this review. Hopefully I'll be back with a Year 3 review.
