Toughened Nonstick PRO

Real person here! Ordered this pan via Amazon Used and got a $40 discount. $115! Score! Just a teeny little Nick along the top edge that you can hardly see. But not worth a dime if it doesn’t perform well. But perform it does. I have a ceramic top GE range. That’s always fairly slow to heat up. I have several other high-end pans that I always heat using a medium setting and then wait and wait. With this Le Creuset pro, it seemed the heat took less time. Not fast, but not super slow. That was nice but the real pay off was how well it cooked. My first use was breakfast with pancakes and eggs. I let it come up to full heat before starting of course. Added a drizzle of olive oil. The pancakes were nicely browned and perfect. The eggs were also absolutely perfect and of course slid right out. No clue how long it’ll last but I am very meticulous in caring for my gear so I expect a long life. I loved it so much. I went back in and ordered the Le Creuset Pro 12 inch stirfry pan. Full price. It just has to last a few years to have the significant investment make sense. Fingers crossed.

Wonderful non-stick pan. I've had it for about a year now and it is still non-stick and fries eggs like a dream. I baby this thing: No high heat, no metal tools, gentle handwash. I save the rougher handling for my stainless steel pan. It is pretty heavy...I can't lift it with one arm very comfortably, and I would consider my arm strength to be a bit above the average housewife.

High quality pan & cover that works beautifully on our glass top electric stove. Following instructions for care, this should last a very long time.

It was time to upgrade when we bought an induction stove top. After much soul searching I settled on Le Creuset. I bought the10 and 12 inch pan. I have had them for two months and used both quite a bit. Fantastic. Even heating. Non-stick but still browning well. Easy to clean. No warping. Very comfortable handles which stay cool. Simply very very good frying pans. Still look like new. Photo: Spanish tortilla, started in the 10 inch pan, turned into the 12 inch. Clean and easy release.

The Good: * pan is a great pan for cooking eggs with a super slick surface * it is slightly lighter than most in this range, and a comfortable weight to handle. * comfortable handle, low angle, round and soft. The Bad: * If using a glass top surface, the sharp edges on the bottom will scrape your cook top (The direction say not to move pan while cooking) Right!? I don’t think that is possible. * The contact surface on the bottom of pan doesn’t fit any of my induction heating elements. It should be the same size. * The bottom of the pan is much smaller than the cooking surface, so food around the edges of the pan have less heat. For the price, you would think these little bugs would be worked out. I would not recommend this pan for cooking with glass top due to the scraping the glass causing damage over time.

I upgraded to this set two years ago. Waited to write a review after using them. Easily best pans I’ve ever owned. A bit more money but last 10x longer. Even cook on foods. Holds temperature well. Cleans well. Most durable cooking set I’ve had. I can’t say enough to spend a bit more, treat yourself. Buy these. No regrets.

You get what you pay for and you pay for what you get. Honestly had a difficult time spending $120 on a pan when I could buy a good calphalon set for $50. After some strong coerision from a family memeber I caved and gave this pan a try and I couldn't be happier. I am ready to replace all other sizes with these as well. I love the thick base to this pan that creates very even heat with out much effort from the stove. The non-stick is far supperior as well, I have to use little to no butter/oil when cooking which means cleanup is also a breeze. These pans are worth every penny and is my go to everytime I cook now.

My wife loves the Le Creuset cast iron we have, I'm not a fan. This pan however is a family favorite.

Excelente.
