Excelsteel Professional Aluminum Frypan with Ceramic Non-Stick Coating, 8-Inch, Off-White

Very pleased!
I originally threw away all my nonstick Revereware because I was frightened by the effects of the various chemicals on the nonstick. It was starting to chip and get into my food. I switched completely to stainless steel and I've been using that. I noticed I was avoiding making simple dishes like eggs and sausage because the food would stick and it was hard to clean. I even got a special cleaner for the stainless steel but it didn't work. I've been seeing all this hype about the "greener" nonsticks. But I've shied away because of the hefty price tag. I was at the supermarket and I saw this pan. It was also expensive but I liked the feel of the nonstick. I also liked the claims that they didn't use chemicals often found in nonstick. I checked out the price of Amazon and was very pleased with that it was about 1/2 the price than what I saw at the store.

When I first got it, I immediately put it in the dishwasher. It came out fine so I made some sausage with it. It was slow to...

Great product so far
We've been using this skillet for a month and it has performed extremely well. Didn't realize the skillet has small ridges when initially ordered, but discovered they don't hamper cooking or cleaning in any way. This 12" was our "test" skillet, so today we're ordering another along with an 8" and 10". Food is cooked evenly and clean-up could not be easier.

Best skillet we have ever had!
We have gone through many non-stick skillets over the years but this one is the best. We have used it at least 100 times now and it still looks and performs like new. You can cook at low temperatures and the ceramic surface cooks very evenly and the food tastes wonderful. We don't typically wash it in the dishwasher because it is so easy to clean and we don't want to tie it up in the dishwasher until it is ran again. I bought this skillet as a result of researching the best non-stick surface to avoid carcinogens related to cancer. Ceramic was recommended but, being skeptical of non-stick surfaces, I didn't want to spend too much money. We are so pleased with this skillet we added the 12 inch skillet to our Christmas list.
