Caraway Nonstick Ceramic Frying Pan (2.7 qt, 10.5") - Non Toxic, PTFE & PFOA Free - Oven Safe & Compatible with All Stovetops (Gas, Electric & Induction) - Marigold

https://amzn.to/3RqwsyZ I bought this pan with some reservations. I mean it’s expensive. It looked nice. The reviews spoke of its amazing quality and benefits. I wanted it but it took me a few visits to Amazon before I actually took the plunge and purchased this incredible pan. What do I think after the fact? Well, I’ll be honest. This is most definitely the best of the best. This pan is impressive. It far exceeds my hopes for a quality pan. It truly is everything it claims and so much more. The food fries up beautifully – without much oil. You only need a little oil or butter and the food comes out looking perfect and tasting even better. Once the food is cooked, it slides off the pan without an inkling of resistance. This pan is one that taught me (for the umpteenth time) that sometimes expensive really is better. Not always. But in this case, the expense is definitely worth the dollar. This pan is like the BMW of pans, It is quality. It is beautiful. And it does what it says it will do… cook your food to perfection. Just buy it! You won’t be disappointed.

I have been doing some research on the impact forever chemicals has on our bodies and decided to try companies who do not use those chemicals in their cookware. I have gone from using Calphalon - for over a decade- to Caraway. I truly didn’t know what I was missing! While the price was a bit of a shock, the heat distribution as well as the nonstick quality is perfection. I don’t need to use oil or butter, and it cleans easily- leaving a nice glittery effect to the pan. Not having the forever chemicals that negatively impact our bodies as well as our environment, is a huge factor as well. I have cooked pancakes and crepes so far and have been 100% happy with the results. They are restaurant quality all due to the pan. My kids have even commented on how fluffy and perfect the food’s texture is compared to the Calphalon cookware. It’s worth every penny!

Best pan I've ever used! Food literally slides out of the pan. Clean up is a breeze and the pan is sharp looking.

Excellent pan. The pan is extremely non-stick!

I purchased this pan about one month ago, and have used it daily since receiving it. And I will say - this Caraway fry pan - well there’s something just not right about it. Something that just doesn’t add up. After a single use, food began adhering to the pan’s cooking surface. Not just eggs, mind you; which is probably the main thing most of us hope to use our nonstick cookware for. Everything sticks. Bacon sticks. Sausage sticks. Potatoes stick. Meats, veggies - shoot, a slice of bread sticks to this pan. Would you like to simply to warm something from the fridge, reheat leftovers? Nope. It will stick. If you can cook something in this pan, it will stick to this pan. And not just a little bit of stick. No, no, no, my friends. Look to some of the other very low reviews. See the video evidence. There’s a whole lot of stick. A tear your food up trying to get it out of the pan and on to the plate kind of stick. And then a soak in hot water and scrape stuff out kind of stick. And then a do it again to get what you couldn’t get out after all that kind of stick. Following the recommended cleaning method of a bringing a cup of water with two tbls of baking soda to boil for several minutes and then rinsing…stuff sticks. No amount of cleaning, nor method of cleaning seems to affect the performance. Neither does cooking technique. Cook on low, stuff sticks. Cook on medium, stuff sticks. Cook with oil, sticks. No oil, sticks. Truly preposterous. This said, however, this is not merely a poor non stick pan; it is a poor pan. The handle, though ergonomically sound and comfortable to grip, transfers heat far too readily. On a gas range, it quickly becomes ‘too hot to handle.’ Beyond the five minute mark, even on low heat, you will be burned by the handle. Additionally, the pan’s exterior surface cannot be kept clean, which for a daily use pan isn’t critical in my book, excepting that the finish seems designed to have stuff actually adhere to it. Again, not especially off putting for me as I believe in function over aesthetics, but I find it strange this should be so. That said, my expectations for this pan were fairly straight forward. I hoped for a decently made nonstick pan that would heat mostly evenly, that would be mostly nonstick, that would function in my working kitchen alongside some other quality cookware that consists exclusively of copper clad stainless steel and cast iron. I looked very forward to a more healthful alternative to the everyday nonstick more typically relied upon. And I hoped to get perhaps as much as a year’s use of the pan before having to replace it. I take care of my cookware. I always use soft implements, never metal, and always rely upon gentle cleaning methods - soft sponges and plastic scrappers only if necessary. Given the performance of this pan, at this point, however, I am disappointed across the board. I also must and do question any and all claims made as to this cookware’s efficacy. As well as the efficacy of any claims or reviews that would laud its performance as commendable. I am, in short, severely skeptical. I know my way around a kitchen, and as far as I’m concerned, I will not deign to so much as boil water in it at this point. It has no redeeming qualities given its performance. And given its performance, I cannot help but to doubt its other claims as to being a healthier alternative to other cookware options. Given the $100 price tag for the pan, one must conclude that such a high relative cost is primarily for covering marketing and profit. And I would challenge anyone willing to make contrary claims as to this pan’s performance to prove such claims as anything better than specious. From my experience, this appears to be a clear matter of consumer grift. Given what my experience with this product has been, there is simply no other reasonable explanation. Out of the box, it does look nice; it does feel nice. First cook: it works nice. And then the honeymoon is over. And the fight is on. Sorry to say, if you bought this thing, you already lost.

Truly outstanding product. We already owned an 11-piece set but wanted another couple of fry pans so we ordered this 2-piece set. They really are non-stick -- clean-up is very easy even if the food is overcooked and won't just slide off the pan. Just oak it for 30 seconds and all comes clean with a soft sponge. My only wish as that Caraway included tops along with the pans.

Excellent for most cooking/frying. However, it is not completely nonstick for all meal preparations. I boil smoked sausages until the water is gone then continue to fry for a crisp skin. After an hour something sticky was glued to the pan. Had to use hot water vinegar and baking soda so as not to damage it. However, for most cooking it performs well and cleaning is very fast. I have a Caraway baking pan I use in the air fryer and it performs even better. I have used many frying pans good and bad. This one comes in close to the top performers so I would buy again. I have never owned a non stick that remained non stick beyond one year.

So far, so good. This seems like a heavy well-made pan, and my first week of cooking eggs demonstrated that the non-stick surface really works with minimal to no oil. The surface is very slippery and eggs did not stick at all. I am using it on an induction cook-top, and it is hard to find good ceramic pans for induction.

Unfortunately I received the item but it was worn out like it has been used! I waited over 2 weeks for delivery and now it arrived in a questionable state!

Arrived exactly as described.

This is the best pan I have used. I have banned anyone in my family from using it . I like my eggs not sticking to a pan, but for that I will risk a divorce

Caraway is not a good brand. There’s far better ceramic cookware. The ceramic coating starts peeling off in less than a year of use. For the price, you would definitely expect a premium item. This is not the case.

Beautiful pan!
