Made In Cookware - 12-Inch Stainless Steel Frying Pan - 5 Ply Stainless Clad - Professional Cookware - Crafted in Italy - Induction Compatible

Wish I knew years ago that Stainless Steel Pans could be this good!! I've always had stainless steel cookware. Only recently learned not all stainless steel pans are the same. After learning the benefits of 'fully clad' stainlesd steel pans, I went in search of finding a pan to replace my current, supposed non-stick PFOAS free pan, which food was sticking on and had scratches from silicone utensils. After watching countless YouTube demo's, reviews on pans, I settled on this Made In brand. It was a huge price tag for me, but decided it was worth the investment to get toxic 'non stick' pans out of my life. I was excited when I saw the pan, bigger, heavier,and more beautiful than I expected. I love that it is crafted in USA , it was Important to get a real quality brand, not a cheap Chinese knockoff. This pan is above and beyond in quality compared to the regular chain store brands that are always 'on sale' I followed seasoning instructions I saw online, gently heating the pan, doing the water bubble test, then oiling . My first item was a Paratha veg filled bread,the same type that got stuck in my 'non stick' pan. The bread slid around on the surface and cooked perfectly as in my video. I have high hopes for this pan. I am plant based diet, so it will be making lots of sauteed stirfrys , sauces , pasta,bread based foods, it will be my pan for everything , and by getting the 12 inch size, the pan will never be too small, so cost effective not buying multiple sizes. The main thing to know about this pan , treat it properly in prep before you toss any food in it, and it will do its job. I suggest watching some videos on fully clad stainless steel pans to learn how to use them. That way you're not disappointed if you throw your steak in on super high heat and it sticks. I love this pan!!

Don't listen to all those people who can't cook who claim this pan burnt their food, that's not the reason this is a bad product. This pan is over-priced, heats unevenly, I sent it back as it warped even when heating slowly as advised. I'm cooking on induction, maybe it's not adapted but that's not my problem. I've never had a stainless steel pan that stains with strange white marks. Incredible amount of buzz about Made In products, don't believe any of it.

Despite the overwhelming positive reviews, I'm not sure what to believe. This was my first ever stainless steel pan, so I also got a laser thermometer to make sure I use it correctly. First time use, I preheated it dry, on almost the lowest setting. The goal was to get it to around 105-110°c before adding oil. Took about 10 minutes to reach 95°c (I know people say preheat for 2-3 min, but I didn't want to shock it, so I used very low heating), and around that temp it started wobbling on my glass stove top on its own. As per the extensive research I've done before getting one, I made sure the size of my burner matched the bottom of the pan perfectly, I constantly took the temp with the thermometer, and did everything correctly. The sides are considerably higher than the middle now and it's virtually unusable. Didn't even get to cook anything in it as the oil just pools weirdly due to the warping. I'm thinking it's possible I got a defective unit as my friend has an identical one and allegedly never had an issue with it (to be fair he's using gas stove so his might also be warped but would not be noticeable on that stove). I wanted to go full clad due to all the advertisement and accolades, but now I'm not so sure. I'll maybe try to give these guys the benefit of the doubt, and order a new one to see if the same happens. If that needs returning too, I'll try a different brand altogether. I'm so thankful to Amazon customer service for sorting everything out for me, otherwise I would've been out a lot of money on a mediocre pan.

Very good! Sturdy, large, easy to clean, things cook evenly across its huge space.

Quality item and cooks really well. To be fair, you need to know how to cook with this for it not to stick and how to clean it to keep it in good condition. But if you do some research you will not have to worry about food sticking or burning AND you will not have bits of the usual cheaper pans supposedly non stick coatings coming off in your food.
