We got a large sauce pan, 1 small and 1 medium size fry pans.I was very excited the first time we got our Scanpans. I saw and read about the new technology surrounding this product that supposedly to be non-stick for many years. Now we only have the big sauce pan left. We have to throw away the 2 fry pans.Well, to give it some credit, they lasted a couple of years before it started to peel off (actually not peeling off like a teflon. It starts to have some tiny holes on the surface coating which grows in size as you use it. Then finally when we see the metal base, we got worried that pieces of those non-stick surface gets to our food that we decided it's time to get rid of it). The non-stick properties starts to wear off before it lasted a year.Pros:-heavy and thick to distribute heat evenly-Handles and glass covers are oven resistant so you can actually use it to cook in the oven-Well made, great construction. Durable.-(If you order a cover) We love the glass cover. It is see through to see your food without lifting it. Heavy that it does not easily rocks on top of the pan. We actually use it with our other pans.Cons:-Not as non-stick as teflon. And non-stick properties continue to deteriorates as you use it. Approximately a year.-For the price, it should last much longer.-Even if it is heavy and thick. It is not good for induction cooking.

Piece of junk, they all stick after a while., 2007-04-18

I've owned several Scanpan products. This fry pan, an 8-inch fry pan and a sauce pan. All stick after being used for a while. After I had problems with the first one I talked to the store I bought it from and to Scanpan. They said to use lower heat and don't use cooking sprays. I followed those instructions with the next pan I bought and still had problems. I also tried the "restore" method mentioned in the manual using the steel wool that was included with the pan without any success.When they were new they were great, but once they started sticking, they were worse than a regular pan without a non-stick coating. Plus the sellers won't back them up. I tried to return mine under their "Lifetime" warranty, none of the stores selling them would take them back without talking to the distributor first. The distributor never returned my phone calls. Also a major consumer testing magazine that originally gave these a high rating retracted that rating after getting bad feedback from owners. You can read back issues in your library.

I gave up my teflon pans years ago, and suffered through trials with stainless steel and cast iron skillets and disasters with Visionware. I heard about Scanpans on a cooking forum and took a chance on buying this sample pan. Man, oh man! It's so good to be able to cook a simple egg in butter again with no worries about burning or sticking.Everything the other reviewers say about it is true. It sits flat on my ceramic cooktop and has no hotspots. It cooks evenly. It cleans up like a dream. Nothing, and I mean nothing, sticks or burns. I've used it for a year, two or even three times a day. It still looks like new.After I use it for breakfast I just swish it clean so it's ready for dinner. At first I was afraid to put it in the dishwasher but got over that pretty quick. After dinner I throw it in the dishwasher. It's gone through the dishwasher every day for nearly a year. Did I mention it still looks like new?It makes a great gift too! Get it, you'll love it!edited 10/4/2006 I'm back on Amazon today to buy another one for my son in college. These make fantastic gifts. Everyone I've given them to has raved about them. Mine are now two years old and still look like new. Having good equipment like Scanpans makes cooking downright fun!
