This skillet is absolutely perfect! A great value for the price. The high side is what attracted me the most and, as I thought, solved the problem I was having with my other skillets: spilling food on the stove top... As a bonus, it goes from stove top to oven (removing the convenient silicone sleeve.) Very convenient.

Aside from its chemical free nonstick properties, this fry pan was reviewed in the Wirecutter as being light weight. It may not be as heavy as cast-iron, but it is certainly no lightweight.Other than that it seems well-made and its nonstick properties are pretty good.

Purchased 3 of these frying pans in December: 8”, 10” and 12”. It seemed too good to be true that they were nonstick and chemical free. They are far from nonstick. The pan gets discolored from normal use, and there are directions to re-season the pan. Place it in the oven at 450-500 degrees until it turns black. No matter how many times I did that, the discoloration remained.To maintain and increase the oxide layer, you should use a drop of oil and distribute it along the inside of the pan after every use. This didn’t help.Cleaning is difficult because when food gets stuck, normal methods like soaking or steel wool cannot be used, as they will damage the pan. It is suggested to use salt and a paper towel. This is a tedious process. The trick that works is to heat water in the pan for a couple of minutes. This loosens the food.Think about it. These are nonstick pans, yet there are several methods to remove burnt on food.

The pan is much lighter than my cast iron skillet. It heats rapidly and evenly, was totally nonstick straight out of the box as promised. Washing by hand was quick and easy and no residue was left

Awesome pan. More non-stick than any non-stick that I’ve owned after months of use. Plan on maintaining it though because the original seasoning doesn’t last long—which is fine. It does warp temporarily every time so you can’t blast it on high heat and must warm up somewhat slowly but that’s common with most of these. I’ve read that some other more expensive brands are a bit thicker and may help with that. Comes with a silicone handle cover which is nice but I never use it because I put it in the oven all the time and also wonder if it might make it rust.

I haven't cooked eggs yet, but I really like this so far. It gets nice and hot and puts a sear on, and it is so much easier to manage than my cast iron. Love the silicone handle grip as well, very sturdy. No lid, but one of my existing glass lids fits it just fine.

Terrific pan right out of the box. Works beautifully with no microplastics. My favorite of all my many pans. Never sticks. Cleans easily. And you can take the handle cover off and use it in the oven.

I used this pot once and the coating came off! I guess this is supposed to happen but where does the black stuff go? Needs to be re-seasoned

I avoid non-stick cookware like the plague and prefer carbon steel, so I bought this one because it said "pre-seasoned" in the description and a certain product testing organization I follow rated it highly. As soon as I washed it right out of the box I could tell it was not seasoned with heat and oil, the water beaded up too easily. It felt and behaved exactly like a non-stick coating.So I contacted OXO, who directed me to the manufacturer (they don't make their own cookware), The Cookware Company. From there I drilled down into Green Pan, one of their subsidiaries that makes the OXO pan, whose claim to fame is a "non-toxic ceramic non-stick coating". They claim it is non-toxic because it is made of a ceramic derivative of sand, and the manufacturing process doesn't use PFOA or PFAS chemicals.That's lovely, but I have no reason to believe it is safe other than their claims. A little bit of research into "non-stick ceramic coatings" revealed that they are made with other, potentially toxic chemicals, and I couldn't find any published studies on their safety. I'm giving it three stars because it's a well-made pan, it certainly feels solid and sturdy, and the silicone grip on the handle is nice, but I don't trust it for cooking my food, especially when they deceptively call it "pre-seasoned" instead of "non-stick". Are they hiding something? I'll just stick to my good ol' oil-seasoned carbon steel wok.

This is my first non Teflon pan. I was amazed that how easy it is to use, clean and maintain it. Glad to find a safe, lightweight, and non stick pan!

I have been a Stainless Steel cookware with occasional use of nonstick so this was my first use of this type of frying pans. Well… I must say I am converted, this is like cast iron and nonstick pans had a baby, great use. Oxo brand is great and the finish, weight and usability is phenomenal, thanks!

This has got to be the best pan I have ever cooked with. Made a little stir fry with some vegetables the other night and it actually charred the vegetables. It was fantastic. Cooks evenly, cleans fast. Just a few instructions, no dishwasher. No soaking of pan, it cleans very easily with sponge and soap and water. It needs to be dried immediately. It was very fast. The cooking was so good and you can put the pan in the oven also. Just take the rubber holder off the handle. This pan is worth the money. The weight is not too heavy and not too light, it is just right.
