OK but the rivets are so annoying

OK but the rivets are so annoying
I guess I got spoiled with my previous pots & pans not having any rivets at all. The rivets on this pan are non-stick coated, which is a good thing, but they are really in the way when I'm trying to scrape out the last of the food into a container.Also incredibly annoying is the helper handle being at an ANGLE (see pic). As a result, this pan can't straddle across my kitchen sink; it slides off and crashes down into the sink. And since I have a split sink, the pan is too large to fit fully down inside the sink either. My only options are to lay it in there at a downward angle (so it can't properly soak) or move it to the counter.This pan is heavier than my Eurocast, but nowhere near as heavy as a cast iron.A little smaller than I wanted but I generally cook large quantities nowadays - I've forgotten how to cook for two (lol).Heat distribution seems good.I'm unconvinced that the ridged cooking surface does anything at all besides make a weird noise while you stir.

These are better than I expected. I was looking at higher end cookware until I saw these. Their not cheap but their not expensive either. They are dishwasher safe and clean up so easily. I don’t have to soak them like my old stuff. A little dish soap and rinse. Almost no scrubbing. They are fairly lightweight. I love the handle which I think is silicon, feels like rubber.

I actually ruined my 1qt by forgetting I was boiling water in it. But it actually survived without deforming, it just left permanent staines on the inside. It still works fine but I probably reduced the nonstick/scratch resistants lifespan.

The pans heat evenly and these come in a variety of sizes which I got most of. I wish they all came with lids but you will have to purchase some separately.

I have the. Circulon bakeware which I wasn’t as impressed with. It just didn’t stand out, but I can’t say enough good about the cookware. Excellent value here.

Bought these when the 2nd set of 'great pans' that I bought were not so great. Read a few reviews and took a chance and I am glad that I did. Not only are these pans as advertised, but they more than exceeded my expectations. They fry without sticking, heat up evenly and are easy to clean. If you have doubts, do what I did and buy them you will not be disappointed. I rarely do reviews, but I just had to tell that these are a great buy and well worth the price.

I have a full set of these pans from about 7 years ago and a couple of them were no longer 'non-stick'. This pair made me realize that I should have replaced them sooner, as these are wonderful! Eggs glide right out with ease, and I use so much less oil for cooking.

Size: Skillet (12")Verified Purchase
I bought this pan specifically for my husband to make French omelettes, which he really enjoys doing, but I expect we'll end up doing more than that with it since it seems pretty versatile. It's deeper than the Hamilton Beach pan that he had been using (which lost it's non-stick ability) so I was worried he wouldn't like it, but the depth actually helps when getting to the final part of rolling up the omelette. The pan has a good weight and seems really durable and well made - time will tell if the non-stick coating holds up, but it seems to be of good quality. It's more expensive than other pans, but I figure that if it lasts a good long while it's worth it.

Worth the price. A good size for a fry-up breakfast, not too light in weight, but neither too heavy. Needs little oil to cook satisfyingly and has a long ergonomically balanced handle. It’s also easy to wash, best done with just hot water - I've cooked various meals in it, from omelettes to stews, and it doesn’t stick. Always heat on medium and reduce to low (avoid high) and you’re smiling all the way from pan to plate. And my missus loves it too!
