Made In Cookware - ProCoat 10" Non Stick Frying Pan (Graphite) - 5 Ply Stainless Clad Nonstick - Professional Cookware - Induction Compatible

This frying pan is worth every cent. All my prior pans have been parts of cheap sets from target or the like, claiming to be nonstick and good quality, but I didn’t know what I was missing out on until this frying pan. It heats up quickly and evenly. I actually can use a lower temperature to cook effectively because the pan conducts the heat so well. It was a bit of a learning curve at first! I also hadn’t experienced high-quality nonstick until this pan. Before buying this pan, I watched some review videos from America’s Test Kitchen, and a key test for a nonstick pan is to be able to fry and egg without oil. I hadn’t thought such a thing could be possible and any pan I’ve previously owned couldn’t manage such a feat, but this pan absolutely can do that no problem. Other great features are a comfortable handle design and the ability to use the pan in the oven. It is also very easy to clean-unsurprisingly, since the nonstick coating works so well. This pan is excellent and I love it, but there are a couple things you might want to consider before buying this particular pan. First, this pan doesn’t come with a lid, which maybe isn’t an issue for you, but I have found myself from time to time needing to use a lid from another pan and would have preferred a pan with a lid. Made In sells a universal lip separately so I might get that. Something you might consider, if a lid is essential to you. Second, this is a rather hefty pan. If you’re lifting the pan a lot (e.g., to toss a stir fry), the weight could end up being a frustration. I don’t lift and maneuver the pan too much, so this hasn’t been an issue, but I could see someone wanting something lighter. These are points of preference rather than quality, so I didn’t dock any stars for these two considerations. Overall, I’m really impressed with the quality. It has raised the bar for all future pans and I would feel confident buying from Made In again.

I was surprised to see that this non stick pan looks identical to the stainless steel pan that I previously ordered with a Teflon coating. This is the best non stick pan I have ever owned. I’ve cooked on it a couple times and the heating is even and the food slides out of the pan. Clean up is easy with just soap and a sponge. I highly recommend this pan to anyone wanting to upgrade their nonstick pan.

I have into the hype and decided to buy a good high quality pan and was severely disappointed. It’s NOT non-stick. I’ve had cheap non stick pans that delivered better results than this. It also scratched after frying a chicken breast in panko breadcrumbs. Not even the utensils, it scratched from BREADCRUMBS. This is simply ridiculous.

The ad for this product is confusing as it contradicts itself as to where they are made. In once place it says Made in Italy another made in USA, we bought both the 8" and 10" and they are solid well made pans, both that we got were made in the USA. It's too early to comment about durability but so far, I'm impressed with these pans. Watch for sales which seem to happen from time to time ...

You can cook things in a hot oven which is what I really like about this particular non-stick pan. It's also beautifully made, quite reasonably heavy and the surface is beautiful. Just read the instructions carefully because nothing is indestructible. I don't have any scratches on mine and I'm careful to follow the instructions. It's not super delicate but the surface has to be maintained with care. It doesn't transfer heat the same as ceramic covered cast iron, so it won't put a sear on say Salmon skin the same as ceramic covered cast iron but I cooked lamb loin chops in the oven with this and they turned out great, with a nice crust. It's safe up to 500°, which is awesome. They just want you to wipe it clean and not even use the abrasive side of a sponge so that's what I mean by pay attention. I haven't had anything stick on it that I couldn't get off by rubbing with a soft sponge. I usually wipe it out right after cooking with either a paper towel or the soft side of the sponge and everything comes right up. I'm going to try mashing my refried beans in it with a plastic masher but I'm going to be very careful not to scrape the flat and or its edge along the bottom when I do so.
