Scanpan Classic Ceramic Titanium 12-1/2-Inch Fry Pan Review

I've owned several Scanpan products. This fry pan, an 8-inch fry pan and a sauce pan. All stick after being used for a while. After I had problems with the first one I talked to the store I bought it from and to Scanpan. They said to use lower heat and don't use cooking sprays. I followed those instructions with the next pan I bought and still had problems. I also tried the "restore" method mentioned in the manual using the steel wool that was included with the pan without any success.

When they were new they were great, but once they started sticking, they were worse than a regular pan without a non-stick coating. Plus the sellers won't back them up. I tried to return mine under their "Lifetime" warranty, none of the stores selling them would take them back without talking to the distributor first. The distributor never returned my phone calls. Also a major consumer testing magazine that originally gave these a high rating retracted that rating after getting bad feedback from owners. You can read back issues in your library.

Scanpan Classic Ceramic Titanium 11-Inch Nonstick Fry/Omelet Pan Review

We got a large sauce pan, 1 small and 1 medium size fry pans.

I was very excited the first time we got our Scanpans. I read about the new technology surrounding this product that supposedly to be non-stick for many years. Now, we only have the big sauce pan left. We have to throw away the 2 frying pans.

To give it some credit, they lasted a couple of years before it started to peel off (actually not peeling off like a teflon. It starts to have some tiny holes on the surface which grows in size as you use it. Then finally when we see the metal base, we got worried that pieces of those non-stick surface gets to our food that we decided it's time to get rid of it). The non-stick properties starts to wear off before it lasted a year.

Pros:
-heavy and thick to distribute heat evenly
-Handles are oven resistant so you can actually use it to cook in the oven
-Well made, great construction. Durable.

Cons:
-Not as non-stick as teflon. And non-stick properties continue to deteriorates as you use it. Approximately a year.
-Not a good value. For the price, it should last much longer.
-Not for induction cooking.

I've used my Scanpan for a bit over 2 years now - the only piece of Scanpan I own.I cook almost everything in Farberware Classic plain old stainless made in Da Bronx, Noo Yawk. But a cook's just gotta have ONE good nonstick pan. I tried all the cheap stuff, then a Circulon (ever try to keep one really clean?) Then a "Pots & Pans from Calphalon" teflon/silverstone piece of junk. Chipped and flaked and RUSTED where the teflon left.
Then SCANPAN came into my life.This thing is bulletproof - use steel utensils on it, burned he;; out of it one time - no problem. One nick on the top edge in two years caused by beating the bejasus out of a big serving spoon trying to dislodge some thing or other that was stuck to the spoon.
Want to give a REAL NONSTICK WEDDING GIFT???? Give the kids a set of this stuff - they'll love you for it. Neighbors daughter got married, wanted Calphalon, gave her Scanpan instead. She and hubby are believers. She got some odd pieces of Calphalon and commented on how hard it is to clean. No teflon "poisoning" hangups with Scanpan either.'Nuff said.

After reading all of the good reviews I decided to get this pan.If I really liked it I was also going to purchase the chef's set of other pans.When it arrived I was so excited.I had been using a cheap omelet pan that all of the teflon had worn off and I was ready to invest in some good pans.Two things I found out.If you put veggies in your omelet and they touch the pan it will stick, but it cleaned up easily.I had to put a teaspoon of butter in.Second the rivets stick out and food collects around them so I have to take a toothpick to them occasionally.One of the rivets started moving, which I don't believe it is supposed to do.I called Scanpan 3 times so far and keep getting an answering machine.I leave a message but no one calls me back.I will try again today.I am deliberating if I should get the classic in the other pans but I hate the glass lids and this problem with Customer service is leaving me leery of making another purchase with this company.Update.On the last call I was able to get a hold of customer service.The return was easy and the pan was replaced quickly.We ended up purchasing the 10 piece professional set and have been thrilled with how easy these pans are to cook with. We have not had any additional problems and I have recommended these pans to several of my friends and family.The only thing I would not recommend is buying the pasta insert.Anytime I use it water boils up all over my stove.I have tried to put less water in until there is not enough water to cook the pasta.I am now using it as a strainer in my sink.

This is a fantastic pan. There is no hot spots, food browns evenly and beautifully. I find that it heats up faster than my other pans and I use lower heat than I need with other pans. I have bought many other non-stick cookware from Scanpan and I love them all. The food I cook on Scanpan always turns out better than when I use my other pans.

=really works
Reviewer: /Ken from Tracy, CA USA
I just got one. I tried cooking an egg with no oil in it on medium heat. It stuck a little, but I could clean it off with one wipe of a paper towel. I can't do this with any other pan I own. With just a slight amount of butter (a pat cut 1/16th inch thick), I repeated the test and was able to flip the egg with ease and there was NO stcking at all. It cleaned off with just dabbing a paper towel along the surface. The outside of the pan also has non stick sides, so if you get some slop on the sides on the outside of the pan, it wipes off as well. The heat distribution was superb as evidenced by the changing pattern from clear to white of the egg white and the uniformity of browning of the egg surface. I intend to use this pan for omlettes and crepes. It exceeds any other fry / saute pan I've used.
You can use metal utensils on this pan: amazing. The handle is suppossed to be good to 500 deg F. I finally found a non stick pan I can use!
I have Le Creuset, multiple stainless, plain cast iron and several (retired) non stick (including Corning and Analon). The eggs are cleaner than from cast iron. In the Le Cruset or stainless, a soaking is required for the same test.
