I suggest you avoid these pans. Please see photos. They are very expensive for a product that simply does not perform as advertised. We had two significant issues. Contacted Scanpan through the retailer ‘Nile’ to give them an opportunity to remedy. They refused to honour the warranties they state themselves. 1. Food sticks. Scanpan avoids warranty obligations by stating this as “carbon buildup” by this they mean ‘food that has stuck’ and is too hard to clean off. Ridiculous. The retailer, to their credit, offered me partial compensation due to Scanpans refusal to honour their non-stick claims. 2. Delamination. The bottom of the pan has separated. This is clearly a manufacturing fault. Scanpan claimed that we must have ‘overheated the pan’ which we have definitely not. Never been over level 8 on an induction hob. And very short cooking times at home. Overall, very disappointing and a lot of money for something I cannot use. Avoid at all costs. If you don’t put food in the pan, and don’t heat the pan, could be OK…..problems only occurred after i did these two things.

Purchased in at The Nile for $300.

  • Hot Handles While Cooking: No
  • Even Heat Distribution: No
  • Non-Stick Longevity: 1 - 3 years

If you are looking for a high quality alternative, I suggest buying a “carbon steel pan”. These are what chefs use in commercial kitchens. They are inexpensive and if you season them correctly (easy) they do not stick to food or warp under heat. I purchased two from Southern Hospitality.
