DaTerra Cucina 11" Nonstick Ceramic Frying Pan with Lid – Oven & Induction Safe, High Heat Resistant Nonstick Cookware, Dishwasher Safe, Durable & Stylish - Volcanic Black Speckled – Made in Italy

I received this piece December 30, and have already used it several times over the weekend. I am very much in love with this pan already! First, the pan is beautiful and the lid has a very contemporary look. Second, the pan is light weight, but seems to be very sturdy and appears to be well constructed. Most importantly, the food comes out of the pan so easy! Just in the last 3 days I have cooked sausage patties, fried eggs, seared meat, and sauteed veggies. The pan is light enough to comfortably flip food, and the non stick allowed the eggs to glide right out of the pan with out the use of oils. The pan heats up quick and cooks evenly. When I seared the meat, I noticed I was getting the crust on the meat and the brown bits in the pan. If I were to have deglazed, the good stuff would have been there (unlike a teflon). In this case it wiped out like a dream!! The lid that comes with the pan is also a nice part of this pan. The lip seats well and can also be used in the oven. Clean up was a breeze! I wiped out the pan and it is ready to go again! This was like my well seasoned cast iron pans, but so much more light weight! I am pretty sure I am going to love this pan!

If we could give this a 10 star ⭐ we would. We ordered this pan and another more expensive pan and this pan is by far the best. It's very easy to clean. While cooking, nothing sticks to the pan. I mean if there is, it's very very minimal and when cleaning this pan, anything left behind will wipe right off with no effort what so ever. This pan is light weight. That was one thing I notice when I purchase pans. The weight of the pan and this one is not heavy what so ever, even though looking at it, you might think it's heavy. The lid has a nice and good seal on it. That too is light weight. Not to mention the eco-friendly materials were used to produce this pan. Huge plus for us. You will enjoy a cool-touch silicone handle. I can't tell you how many times I have burned my hand when I needed to quickly grab a pan. With this pan, you will not have to worry about that. Seller gives a 1-Year Warranty, which means they stand behind their products. These pans are definitely premium and we can not wait until they come out with more sizes. I'm going to try to hold out on buying pans until Summer, when they should have new sizes. ❤️️ PROS: east to clean light weight sturdy high quality 1-Year Warranty 💔 CONS: i don't see any cons with this pan what so ever

I did alot of research on nonstick pans and was not impressed by the black coated pans that have multiple reviews stating that the pans begin to flake black stuff after a while. Even though some state it is harmless, i would prefer to not injest byproduct of the pan im using. I also read a lot of complaints about uncomfortable handles, pan not coming with a lid, and the bottom warping. The Vesuvio pan from DaTerra was the one i decided to roll the dice with and have been so pleased so far. The nonstick ceramic coating works amazingly well. Very even cooking surface makes it hard to burn food. I also like that it will season over time and give your food that much better flavor. The fact that it comes with a lid is a big bonus and the handle has a comfort grip on it to prevent burns and ease of moving around the kitchen. So easy to clean too! Im not a profressional cook, but the quality build of this pan seems top notch out of Italy. Its on the pricey side, but its worth an extra 30-40 dollars for something that will give you years of use and not frustrate you in the kitchen.

6 Month Update - Let down. After using this pan for 6 months, I've found it to lack almost all of the non stick qualities it had when I received it. I have hand washed with soft sponge only since having this pan. Eggs now stick every time, unless I use scads of olive oil in the pan, which for me defeats the purpose of non-stick, healthier eating. For the money, I'd say not worth it. Hoping this is a defect. Will attempt to make contact with the company about their 1 year warranty. Maybe this pan is the exception. Would love to try another. ____ Original Post: Solid product. Lives up to its claims....so far. I'd like to do a 6 month/12 month check in to see how the ceramic is holding up. This has always been the biggest point of failure for all "non-stick" pans that I use. Works exactly as advertised. Easy to cook with. Non-stick ceramic is a breeze to clean. This is used almost daily for meal prep. The lid works well. I was worried a "U" shaped handle wouldn't feel sturdy - I was wrong; it's very sturdy. Silicone outer edge was a nice touch. I would love to see this in a >= 12" pan, but I was willing to make the sacrifice since it seemed like the best option out there. If I was really being picky, I would love to see a bit more metal in the bottom of the pan...to help even out temperatures and keep it from cooling down too much as I add items in to cook. I hope this company continues to make more products like this!

I opted to buy this pan as part of a move away from the traditional non-stick cookware. I'll admit it was a bit nostalgic as the ceramic reminded me a lot of cookware my family had when I was a kid. The quality of the pan is really good without being super heavy. It has really good heat distribution so I didn't have any problems using it to saute. The handle provides a nice grip (I don't like the small knobs on some cookware as it's too easy to still get burned by the lid) without being bulky. My only ask is that I wish it was just a half inch or so deeper for some of the things I make. But that's just an adjustment for me to make.

We just got this Vesuvio pan a few days ago. I bought it because I was disgusted with the task of cleaning up one of our existing "nonstick" pans which one of our guests had used to make scrambled eggs, and which took me a long time to clean. I am aware that nonstick pans lose their non-stickiness over a period of time, but this was originally a really good pan, and I was really irritated. So the first thing I tried was scrambled eggs. I put a large piece of butter on one side of the pan, and, without swishing the butter around, dumped the scrambled egg mix into the pan. I got kind of concerned when the scrambled eggs slid all over the (large, flat) pan, as I put it back on the stove, since I thought that things would get very sticky without pre-application of butter or Pam. Completely to the contrary, the scrambled eggs just slid out of the pan when they were done, including from the part where they had spread over the surface which did not have any butter on it. We tried it on some other things which might be expected to leave a residue, like browning chopped asparagus, and the result was a spick-and-span pan after only a simple wipe with a paper towel. We also like the fact that the pan is really deep, and, for example, can be filled with lots of spinach leaves to be sautéed without the leaves overflowing. The top contributes to the benefit of this use of the pan, because it fits very nicely with its soft plastic edge and small steam hole, thus making it easy to steam things. It's also very nice that the cover is see-through glass. As others have commented, but weight of the pan is surprisingly low. Finally, I spent some time trying to figure out if the surface of the pan is actually ceramic only, or maybe includes some sort of plasticized covering that you can't see. I don't know the answer, but it does seem like it is entirely ceramic without any additional slippery covering of the type which wears out in "nonstick" pans after a year or so. Great pan, we are ordering another one for our vacation house. I only wish they had more sizes. Either way, I very rarely leave comments on things I bought, and also usually feel put upon by requests from Amazon sellers for me to comment on things I bought. In this case, I'm more than happy to say what a great product this is, and think is important to comment since this is such a new product on Amazon that one might overlook it.

In 2015 I got rid of every non stick pan and replaced it with stainless steel and iron cookware. But a need arose for a non stick pan and I recieved this pan in early January 2020. It is exceptional. I have used it daily for almost nine months and it looks like new. Non stick surface is very durable and cleans effortlessly. Heating is great and glass lid provides heat and splash retention. Great value and performance.

I have the 11" & 9 1/2" versions of this pan. This pan is a truly non-stick pan. It is amazing. I have cooked cheese, super low fat ground beef, as well as other items that generally stick to pans and not only do they not stick to this one, but clean up is a breeze. Cooking is even. I used my larger pan for a difficult stir fry dish that usually burns in other pans and I had no trouble, because the heat is evenly distributed with this pan. The handles do not get too hot. These look good too. These are a bit pricier than other non-stick pans, but you won't be replacing them a year later. So worth it! If you like to cook and want a non-stick pan, this is the one to get. Also, they aren't too heavy.
