What was second, third and fourth? What was the worst? I have so many questions after watching this.
A raging phaggot says what? Fail 👎🏼
Additionally, they're promoting Made in China garbage.
You'll wear out non-stick coatings in a couple years. Plus you're cooking on plastic…
Your test are bogus because you didn't list the manufacturers. So it's crap plus also failed to do burn tests for non stick. Once again a crap testing. Project farm would do better testing.
I’m calling total BS. Didn’t show the testing, didn’t record any data, didn’t give any temperatures. This is shilling at its most deceptive.
OXO make 2 versions of the 12" nonstick skillet, a "pro" with a traditional handle. Does anyone know if the body is the same?
Smoothest promotional video ever someone's getting paid from that company to promo that pan clearly.
We bought this to replace an old one, and this is much nicer MyBest.Kitchen Fold-away storage seems like an en excellent design feature, and so is the corner pour spout. We are happy with it so far.
Hello,this is Nico from Cooker King.Do you want to cooperate with us ,for example representing our brand or other activities?If you are interested in ,please contact with me.
OXO needs a pan for induction. Too bad they dont.
was badly warped oxo gaurantee a joke
The only non-stick I really use is an 8" egg pan. Aside from that it's stainless and I do have a ceramic coated cast iron dutch oven.
bought 12 in with lid
lid did not fit
I bought the Oxo. I used it once with a silicon spatula and a second time with a nylon (I think) flipper. After cleaning the pan, I noticed a lot of scratches. Some of the scratches were in directions I don't think I moved the cooking tools. I used the flipper to flip a burger ONCE and the spatula to roll an omelette out of the pan. I was dying to get one of these pans. I'm very disappointed in how easily it scratches.
Also this told me nothing about the pans brands
What idiot would use a piece of fish/meat that was larger than the pan?
It would have been nice to know what the other pans were.
Now, whenever I buy cookware, I always check with ATK for the best product!! Thanks ATK ;0)
They didnt comment on how flat the surface is. I still have PTSD from owning the T-Fal with the red dot, that thing was absolute garbage because it had a huge bulge in the middle so oil/eggs would just pool to the sides. I really loved the Anolon non-stick pans, they were perfectly flat and used the highest grade non-stick coating, I got 3 years of use before they finally started getting rough after 4 years, I would get them again but the price has more than doubled.
I bought ameriware professional pans from vollrath. It was supposed to have a 25 year warranty that was a lie. Vollrath would not stand behind the warranty. I will no longer buy vollrath stuff
That told me absolutely nothing about the other brands and basing the tests on price and not equal size throughout with variations based on manufacturing limitations is hardly comparable. This sounds like a paid OXO commercial
Does anyone know if there is a fitting lid for this winner: oxo 12" skillet?
Hello, I am writing to tell you that — unfortunately — my ZWILLING non-stick pans lost their function soon after I began using them, at the end of 2020. I am asking for a refund or a replacement.. I can show you photos. The problem is that food DOES stick and they are extremely difficult to clean.
I tried filing a warranty claim on their website but it does not accept my claim when I press "enter". Thank you for following up
I love my pan. I have had it for nearly two years and it's holding up well. It is everything they say.
Induction?????
How about a Toxicity test??????
I have to disagree with this assessment. I purchased two Oxo Pro Non-Stick Fry Pans in March 2022. The Pro fry pans are a wee bit more expensive than the regular non-stick shown in this video, but they can go into the oven up to 430 degrees. These are the "hard anodised fry pans." Well kids, I must tell you, FOOD DOES STICK to these pans. I use low heat and could not cook an egg or a sliced veggie hot dog without them sticking to the pan. Food will not release if I do not use some sort of oil, butter, etc.
I am just an ordinary user. I am not paid by anyone to write reviews for any maker of fry pans. I am going to keep the two fry pans I purchased (an 8" and a 10") because I needed new pans, but I am sorely disappointed after relying on ATK's recommendation on these fry pans. A few years ago I purchased a large 12" non-stick pan from Walmart, and it performed better than the Oxo fry pans. I do not even recall what was the brand, but I used it for a few years before it finally began to flake–probably because I used it with too high heat at times.
In any case, this has been my experience. Your mileage may vary.
What about the safety of the nonstick coatings? Have you ever tested 100% ceramic cookware?
Why spend $40 for a pan that will end up in a landfill in a year, when for almost the same amount of money a well seasoned carbon steel pan will last a lifetime? I have several CS pans that I well season and nothing sticks on them. A 8" one is reserved for frying an egg or an omelette, they slide right off.
