TECHEF - CeraTerra Ceramic Nonstick Frying Pan Skillet, (PTFE, PFAS, and PFOA Free), Dishwasher Oven Safe, Stainless Steel Handle, Induction-Ready, Made in Korea (10-in)

I’ve been looking for a griddle pan for quite some time now, but haven’t found anything I wanted. I came across Techef and like what I read in both the description and other people‘s product reviews so I made my purchase. I have not used the product yet, but I absolutely love the look and feel of it and especially the safe coding. It has free of PFOA, lead and PTFE.

Greatest pan I ever used. Owned square pan and planning on ordering round wok. Great with induction stove that keeps bottom of pan really clean without scratch and gas residue. Real non stick and light. I learned not to use in high heat right away with any pan for the long lasting effect including with any coated pan including this other than steel pan.

I have owned this for over a year and if you are in the market for non-toxic cookware THIS is it! I've seen other ceramic pans in stores, and most of them feel flimsy and cheap. This product is SOLID, having a very nice weight which radiates quality. The heat evenly spreads across the pan, making burnt food a problem of the past. This has been my go-to pan and I plan to get the rest of the cookware from this company!

I used this skillet for 3 months every day to make my scrambled egg. I always preheated to no higher than medium heat as recommended, I used only silicone utensils, I never washed it until it was cooled, and I alway hand washed it. It heated up to temp rather quickly as compared to the GreenPan I already had. I was very happy with this skillet and was about to buy another one in a larger size. I'm so glad I hadn't yet. One morning after cooking my egg the same way I had for 3 months, there was a little sticking and when I washed it, there was a small dark stain left. That one area continued to stick thereafter. Then, one day last week I decided to use it to cook something else in it. Again, I preheated it to just medium. It cooked this item just fine. BUT, the next day when I cooked my egg as I always had, it stuck like crazy, and not just in the one small area(see picture). No matter what I do now, each morning about half my egg is stuck to the pan. After 2 weeks of putting up with this, I decided it was time to make a claim with the "Life-time warranty" which I had registered for when I purchased. In reading the fine print in the warranty-claim area states that the non-stick coating is NOT covered by the warranty!! Interesting that this is not mentioned in any of the sales material I have seen on this skillet! Please look at ALL the reviews on this skillet before buying. (You can check out the warranty yourself at: [email protected]) I thought if I kept my temp med-low, used silicone utensils, and always washed by hand that I would have no problem. NOT SO!

I absolutely love this pan! The ceramic coating is completely free of PFAS, PTFE, and PFOA, which gives me peace of mind when cooking. Unlike traditional nonstick pans, I don’t have to worry about harmful chemicals, and it still performs beautifully.One of the best things about this pan is that I don’t need to use a lot of oil. The surface is truly nonstick, making it super easy to cook tamagoyaki without it sticking or tearing. The size and shape are perfect for rolling eggs, and the heat distribution is even, so everything cooks perfectly.If you love making Japanese omelets or just want a high-quality, safe, and nonstick pan, this is an excellent choice! Plus, the fact that it’s made in Korea adds to its quality and durability. Highly recommend!

What I like about it:1) Extremely slippery surface. I have even browned up sea scallops in butter and not even the teensiest bit of anything stuck to pan.2) The shape has squared corners and straight sides. The main reason I like this that pretty much all spatulas have straight edges and so can be awkward to get under food which is near an edge. That isn't the case with a straight edge pan like this. It makes getting under food easy, even when it is up to the edge of the pan. Things like eggs are much easier to handle without mangling them.3) Super easy to clean. Because it is so slippery, the pan is practically clean before you take it off the range. No scrubbing is ever required. Just gentile washing and rinsing is all you have to do.4) The edge opposite the handle is angled out a bit from the pure vertical. This makes it easy to "dump" the pan contents. This gives you a fast and easy alternative to picking the food up and out if you wish.5) Even though the base metal is aluminum, it incorporates a steel pad to make it induction capable.There are also some things I'm not as thrilled about. There aren't any show stoppers but are at least mildly disappointing:1) It is sold as having a non stick surface provided by a ceramic coating, yet uses PTFE (Teflon)? For myself, and I'm sure many others, the point of going with ceramic is to achieve non stick properties while still being safe to use at higher heat levels. Because this does have PTFE, I limit its use to heat of medium or lower. There is still a lot you can do in that heat range, but still it would be best to not be limited.2) The way the steel induction pad is incorporated into the pan causes there to be a slight raised area in the center of the cooking surface rather than a completely flat surface. It is not much and can be easy to miss with casual observation, but if you have only a small amount of butter or oil in the pan, it will tend to migrate to the perimeter and away from the center of the pan. The very best design of including heat spreaders and/or induction plates is having them sandwiched within layers of base metal, so that both the range contacting surface and the cooking surface are completely flat. That is more expensive to manufacture though, and I didn't happen to run across such a beast here on Amazon when I was browsing the offerings.Like I said, those aren't huge issues, and I still would buy & use this pan if I had it to do over again. I do want to mention these experiences though to potentially help others if it would be more of a concern to them.
