5 Star Rating because:It actually is non-stick
Not outrageously priced like other leading non-stick pans
Ease of cleaning
************************************************
I was told about ceramic frying pans by my friend, and was skeptical at first."How can a ceramic pan be non-stick?"Did some research on the net and came across this pan, and decided to give it a try after reading some reviews.
My 10 year-old son loves making eggs in the morning, and he swears by this pan.It's also reasurring to know that this product is PTFE PFOA cadomium free, especially when you're feeding the food to your children.
This product does what it's supposed to do cook food without sticking to it, takes very little effort to clean and it actually looks nice.It is a LOT MORE AFFORDABLE than other leading non-stick pans like Scanpans, which often receive 'less than ideal' reviews over the company's customer service quality.
I'll be buying other products from WearEver to see whether they're as good as this one.
I prefer cast iron but if you want a good non stick that doesn't require weight lifting these rock!Most of my cookware is either Calphalon (non-stick) or Cuisinart (stainless). A 10" skillet is my daily "go to" pan. I have larger and smaller but I really needed another 10" one for omelettes and the like. I was about to buy another Calphalon when I read a very positive review of the Pure Living pan on Tasting Table, saw that the price was right on Amazon, and ordered one. I absolutely love it! It is used at least once a day for sauteing fish, chicken or vegetables and is a dream for eggs. Classic French omelettes are easily folded and slide right out onto the plate.
In addition, cleanup couldn't be easier. Once it has cooled, I simply wipe it out with a paper towel, finish with a soapy sponge, and towel dry. It looks just as good as it did on day one.
I should point out that the Amazon description is misleading in two respects. It states: "Soft touch and ergonomic silicone riveted handle, sear and deglaze with ease, cook at high temperature (up to 750-degree f)." That 750 ºF rating is for the ceramic coating only, not the entire pan. WearEver's site explains that the product is "Oven safe to 350 ºF if handles have any silicone or phenolic parts." Amazon's description further states, "...safe for all cooking methods except induction." What WearEver says is "...safe for all cooking SURFACES(except induction)." The emphasis on "surfaces" is mine. All cooking "methods" would include broiler use for which it is not suitable because of the silicone handle.
Do those differences detract from the product in my view? No, not at all. For range top use it is the best non-stick pan I have ever used. The fact that it is a bargain, makes it even better.
I'd been looking for a new frying pan, which I use 95% of the time to make eggs in the morning.I've had previous T-Fal pans and they generally do well for some period of time until they get gunked up and the coating seems to wear off.I'd never had a ceramic pan and the reviews of this one were good so I decided to give it a try.
Its a beautiful pan when it comes.When cooking with it it gives off an odd smell for the first week or 2 of use.Not a big deal.It was initially nice and easy to clean as all new pans are.I followed the directions I seasoned it as the packaging says.I always let it cool before cleaning it, etc.However, after just 1 week of use there is cooking spray residue stuck on the pan that will not come off no matter how hard I scrub.From the beginning, the pan isn't nearly as "slippery" as the normal T-fal's that I've always used.And, for what its worth, with the white finish on the pan it now looks hideous with yellow/brown residue caked up along the sides.
I'd return it if I hadn't thrown the large box out, but I seem to be otherwise stuck with it.Have only used it 2 times, but so far love it. Ordered a smaller one too. Food slides right off and cleanup is a breeze.
