GreenPan Chatham Hard Anodized Healthy Ceramic Nonstick 8" and 10" Frying Pan Skillet Set, Omelette and Egg Pan, PFAS-Free, Dishwasher Safe, Oven Safe, Gray

I have been a "home chef" for 30 years now. No I am not a professional but I have been called a "food snob" by more than one person including long-time close friends. So when I say something is the "best" I've experienced, it is after careful consideration. Over the years I've probably owned well more than a dozen different pans of various sizes. All of these pans were a different brand. None of them ever performed satisfactorily for me so I always replaced the previous pans with a different brand. The best of them lasted a couple of years and probably because I was too cheap in the moment to go buy another. None of those pans had a non-stick surface that lasted long. Non stick pans are different from cast iron or stainless steel in obvious ways to most. The thing is I find that many of us still treat them the same. Mostly that we expose them to High heat. You can't do that with non-stick pans if you want them to last. Even worse is exposing it to high heat then immediately rinsing or imersing the pan in cold water. The non-stick coating will break down and lose its non-stick properties and that surface eventually will start to peel/flake-off. A sure sign that your pan has lost it's non-stick properties will be that it won't come clean from a simple wipe of a paper towel or damp sponge. At that point you may as well throw that pan away. Another issue with the non-stick pans I have used over the years is that the the coating is teflon and it has been said to be toxic when exposed to high temperatures by more than one published study. To be fair table salt is toxic to humans in high quantities but I don't seen anyone willingly putting teflon on their food. Unfortunately, once teflon coated cookware has been exposed to high enough temperatures for it to break down, your food is likely being contaminated by it. This is in addition to the fumes it creates at those high temperatures. This Green Pan is not coated with Teflon but Ceramic. It is free of all of the toxic man-made chemicals that are typically found in mass manufactured items as well. This is a huge boon if you are someone like me who strives for healthy cooking in every way. Healthy cooking doesn't apply just to the food you eat but also the way it is prepared. That includes the tools and equipment used in that preparation. Many pans do not heat evenly in my exerience. I would even say that most in my experience did not. Unfortunately, many don't realize this until after using a pan that does. It is one of the reasons why I will choose a stainless steel or cast iron pan for a chosen dish though a non-stick pan might be a better choice. These GreenPan Chathams have the most even heat distribution I have ever seen in a non-stick pan. Foods simply cook better. As mentioned above, having issues cleaning a non-stick pan should be a red flag. If you don't expose these pans to prolonged high heat and allow them to cool down before cleaning and use an adequate amount of butter or cooking oil, it is very feasible it will simply wipe clean with a dry paper towel. Most times this is all I do. If I do need more than that, I only use a damp sponge (soft side only) and a little soap with warm water. You should never have to do more than that with this pan. If you do then you are probably cooking at a temperature that is too high and/or for too long and/or inadequate cooking oil. That would say a lot for this pan because it will take temperatures higher than non-stick pans I have used in the past. If you want a high quality non-stick pan, I really can't say enough about these pans. As long as you treat them right they should perform and last for a long time.

Love this pan. Nothing sticks to it and it washes very easily. Bought one for my daughter because I liked mine so much. I use mine every day and so far it looks brand new.

Best parchase ever! Love these pans!

As an informed user I reviewed this product for health safety before buying. It is good. As with other similar products, you may not use these on High heat. You must allow time for the pans to heat up. Once heated, the heat distribution is even. It is not possible to get a high sear using these pans, which we rarely do. Easy to wash off especially if you put a little soapy water in the still warm dirty pan.

Bought in January and used for 4 months!!! Thats it! I litterally treated these pans like they were my children. Never used metal on them. Never put them in dishwasher. No abrasive cleaners. NOTHING! I even stacked them on top of eachother with thick cloth to prevent wear So what's my issue? After 4 months of use they stick!! Badly!! To make things worse, nothing will clean them. I've searched online. Soaked them for days! Don't even try to fry chicken breast... it's a mess. Wasted money on these. Should have trusted the reviews. They now belong in the trash!!!

I'm a big fan of cast iron, carbon steel and stainless steel cookware which I use for most of my cooking. Still, I like to have a few non-stick pans around, primarily for cooking eggs without having to use great care to prevent sticking or use excessive amounts of oil. Problem is, a non-stick pan that works great when new often degrades badly in a few years, to the point where it need replacement. I was hoping these ceramic pans would be more durable. So my new pans arrived and saw the box said "safe for metal utensils." Impressive, I thought, even though I had no intention of using metal utensils...they must be quite durable! Then I read the instructions INSIDE the box, which strongly advised using only nylon/silicon/wood utensils. Why the discrepancy? Then I read further and saw they warned against using olive oil. WTF? You can't use the world's most popular and healthy cooking oil in these pans?!? This was getting worse by the minute. So, I set out to cook a couple of eggs the following morning. I used a fair amount of grapeseed oil (very high smoke point) and plopped my two eggs in...which immediately stuck firm to the bottom. Bizarre, usually fried eggs will freely slide around in a non-stick pan. Even in my cast iron pans, they'll slide around once the edges have lifted. Nope, these eggs stuck fast and couldn't be dislodged without breaking the yolks, which then flowed out and ALSO STUCK to the pan. I had to scrape the remains of the eggs onto my plate with a (nylon) spatula, only to find that the pan was now stained black and brown...stains that wouldn't come out with soaking and vigorous scrubbing. It just got worse from there. After a year, scrambled eggs would just bond tightly to the pan, just as they would in an ungreased stainless steel pan, wasting food and creating an enormous clean-up job. Even cooking something as simple as a pancake is dicey and often sticks fast. To have ANY chance of not sticking, I have to use copious amounts of oil/butter and even then, it's a crapshoot. After a year of frustration, these pans went in the trash. (Well, recycling bin.) Caveat emptor.

I searched for a better pan that what I am using, and when searching I found some good reviews about this, it is really non-sticky and it gets heated quickly, so far, I believe I don't need to say much, it is nice product.

Buyer beware!! These pans do not work on an induction hob, and now I have to try and find someone with a printer, so that I can return them!

Me encanta que no sea de teflon, excelente calidad

El dúo de sartenes vienen muy protegidos y el material es muy rígido, aparte de los beneficios por el contenido de sus materiales el costo lo hacen una excelente opción de compra

安心安全のもので、ツルッとしてるフライパンが欲しくて高価だから悩んでいたけど意を決して購入。まず重い！でもめちゃツルッとしてて洗う時も楽！説明には中火以下で使用と書いてあり、中火なので加熱は遅い。けど蓄熱は良いので中火でも全然焼けます！オススメです！
