Customer Reviews

not as advertised
The Amazon description of this says it is suitable for "any cooking surface," without any restrictions, and the Sitram Web site specifically says "induction ready." So to be sure I e-mailed Sitram, and they assured me that it was indeed induction ready. Well, it is not. Aluminum and stainless steel, without the ferromagnetic material needed to work on an induction cooktop. Amazon did not explicitly misrepresent it, but Sitram did. If that doesn't matter to you, it looks like a fine pan. If it does matter, be warned not to believe what you read.

Fantastic Non-Stick Pan!
This pan is excellent. I use it primarily to cook eggs, pancakes, quesadillas, and anything else that might stick to regular pans. So far, nothing sticks to it!

One of the best features of this pan is the handle, which is the same round stay-cool handle found on other Sitram cookware. The handle is easier to hold, because it is larger than the ones you would find on Calphalon or All-Clad cookware, which I have also used.

One of the things that makes cleaing a breeze is the way the handle is connected to the pan. As with all Sitram cookware, the handle is not riveted to the pan. With Calphalon and All-Clad cookware, food can get stuck in between and around the rivets. This is helpful when cleaning, because there are no rivets. I'm not sure if Sitram's method of affixing the handle to the pan is as strong as the riveted method, but so far, I haven't had a problem.

The previous reviewer, Hal Lewis, makes a good point about the pan being "induction ready." I use a gas stove, so I haven't run into this issue. However, Sitram's website clearly states that this pan is not induction ready.

Lastly, I have to point out that this pan is not made in France like most of Sitram's other cookware. However, I have not had an issue with its build quality. The pan performs very well. I own a several pieces of Sitram's Cybernox line, which are all made in France, and this pan is very similar in its construction.

Over all, I highly recommend this product.

A nice pan to go easy.
Great handle, gives leverage and balance to the nicely weighted (a little heft in the disc bottom) pan. Heats up very quickley on my glass top stove. The stick free coating is very substinative looking and with the ability to heat up fast at low settings I'm expecting it to last. It is advised the pan be used in ovens no higher than 350 degrees. The non-stick surface doesn't give the impression of indestructability (some proclaim to!) but cooks much better then I'd anticipated especially its' browning abilities. (had pan 9 weeks)
