Classic 8 Piece Nonstick Cookware Set

Works great. Is well made and is easy to clean especially because there are no rivets inside the pan for food to get stuck around. I definitely recommend buying this pan

I hadn't heard much about Scanpan until my aunt got a small Scanpan sauce pan and told me how much she enjoyed it. I also liked it when I used it. When it came time for a new set of cookware I went straight to researching Scanpan's line. I was primarily comparing to Hexclad, which offers some similar features but is decidedly more expensive. A sale on Scanpan pushed things over the edge and I have absolutely loved them. They heat up very evenly and have quite a substantial base. While being non-stick, the textured finish will still let you get a lovely sear, which was just what I was looking for. However, during cleanup it doesn't take much to rinse them clean. They are currently in storage during a move and I miss them greatly any time I cook with something else. Definitely a recommended buy from me.

I've had this cookware for a few months now and I like them. I switched from Analon to stainless steel and just couldn't get used to the heavy, stainless steel. My impressions of Scanpan:1) They feel a heavier quality than Analon (I had 2 sets of Analon in the past 19 years and was very happy with each of them. Eventually the nonstick surface chips as they all do, and this was an anniversary present).2) I prefer a non-stick surface for 99% of my cooking. I have no problem browning meats, though I do not typically put these into the oven, though I believe they are heat safe up to 450 degrees. I use my outdoor grill if I want to sear anything or my broiler pan in the oven.3) The handles stay cool to touch while on the gas range. This is important now that my kids are cooking--mac and cheese should require a muscle man to lift the pan or a trip to the ER for 3rd degrees burns.4) I like the glass lids so there is no boil over. I also like the button style knobs vs. a D shaped handle so I can flip the lids and store them with the related pot.5) I've never had saucepans with pour spouts--very handy. This can be a bummer for steaming though. I wish there was a 2 qt straight walled pot in clouded in this set, The 3 qt covered saucepan is almost too big. I kept my 1 qt covered saucepan from the analog set, and this seems to fill in some gaps.My verdict so far is that the pans perform extremely well, and clean up like a breeze. I do not put my cookware in the dishwasher. I would certainly recommend this brand to anyone who prefers to cook with non-stick cookware. I'd also recommend this as a great beginner set. I would fill in with a wok pan, a large stock pot, a few straight walled saucepans, and a metal steamer insert. As a FYI, this set is NOT compatible with induction cooking but scan an does make a separate line for that.

We have a large family and I have bought and discarded two other expensive pans because they were flimsy and cooked unevenly. Not this one! It heats evenly, it cooks evenly, it is non-stick, and it holds a lot of food. We've used it for eggs, fried foods, quesadillas, etc. So glad I found it.

I overheard two women raving about Scanpan cookware in a store so decided to check it out on-line. Found Amazon had the best prices and you just can't beat their free shipping deal. What I really wanted was a couple of skillets that were teflon free but non-stick and Scanpan seemed like the answer. Bought both the 14 inch for large meals and the 8 inch for daily use like frying eggs. These pans are pricey but they are very well made and a pleasure to cook with. Also, they are manufactured somewhere in Scandinavia (hence the name) for those who prefer to avoid Chinese cookware. The 14 inch skillet is HUGE and is great for frying beacon or making pancakes. It can cook 6 average size (about 5 inch diameter) pancakes at a time. The smaller skillet will fry 4 eggs if you don't mind the whites touching. Both pans heat very evenly but be aware that because they are so well made it takes them a little longer to come up to temperature than most cookware you may have used. The ceramic titanium finish is supposed to be hard enough to stand up to metal utensil use but I can't confirm that as I usually cook with wooden utensils. I am very pleased with the non-stick finish and clean-up but have to admit I always put a small amount of butter in the pans unless cooking something that contains fat.Follow-up 3/15: Both skillets look almost new after nearly three years of use. Hardly a day has gone by when one of them has not been used. Oddly enough I use the the large skillet more than the smaller even though I am usually cooking for one or two. In fact, I got tired of putting it back in the pantry after each use, so I just leave it on the stove. If you haven't guessed I am still a big Scanpan fan.

This is the best little skillet for omelettes and small sauté. They may last much longer than the 20+ years we have had them (bought at Sur lá táble that was in Seattle Public market years ago), they came highly recommended. I believe you can get more use out of them if you never use spray oil and do not wash in the dishwasher (dishwasher detergent for the long period in dishwasher is hard on non stick pans and knives).We have a pair of them and use almost daily on gas cooktop.
