Review: Fast on induction - AFTER 18 MONTHS - Still looks and cooks as good as when new. I deep-clean it every other month or so with baking soda and avoid anything over medium heat. No scratches (not even minor surface ones), no flaking, no chipping anywhere, not even on the rim. I can't say enough good things about this pan's performance. AFTER 1 YEAR - The pan continues to perform beautifully. I examine it regularly for signs of wear but so far there are no scratches, not even minor surface scratches. This is very impressive. My nonstick saucepan with a DuPont Autograph II surface (labelled "metal utensil safe") has some very minor scratches after 6 months, this pan has none. Both pans have seen only silicone and wood utensils, and hand washing. I restrict heat to medium or lower. Clean up is still easy. I have given it a baking soda "facial" a couple of times to remove oil build-up. EDITED ORIGINAL REVIEW - My initial impression of this pan was good. It's a well made stainless pan with a very slick nonstick interior. I've owned this pan for 4 months now and food still slides around like a hockey puck on fresh ice. It has become a workhorse for me, and it's so well constructed that I'm happy to use it almost daily. Tonight I made a skillet lasagne in it, everything from browning the meat to cooking the pasta right in this pan. Then I finished it under the broiler. So good, and it cleaned up in about 30 seconds with one squirt of dish soap on a wet sponge. I wrote before that it was only so-so at developing fond. You know, those wonderful brown bits that we thought we needed a bare stainless steel pan to get? Well, this pan builds fond just fine. The trick is to use much, much less oil than you think you'll need. I fried a pair of big flounder filets (no flour, just spices) the other night in about ½-1 teaspoon of oil. I made sure they were as dry as I could make them first. It worked. I'll try it with chicken soon and update again. I've been able to compare it to a lot of other pans for thickness of the aluminum layer (which determines how evenly heat spreads throughout a pan) and for overall weight and balance. This pan is equal to All-Clad and is thicker than equivalent fully clad Cuisinart, Emerilware and Calphalon pans. It's about the same thickness as the 5-ply USA Pan skillet. It is an excellent value. The only thing it lacks is a helper handle. That's not a deal breaker in this pan, because the handle is long enough (just) to allow for two-handed lifting. Like with tonight's lasagne. The All-Clad has a longer handle, but I hate them, they dig into my thumb. Other features I like are the brushed exterior steel, which is easier to clean than polished steel. The lid handle is easy to grasp with bare hands, tongs or a towel. The lid fits tightly and doesn't rattle at all. Speaking of rattling, this pan doesn't buzz on my GE induction range. It might buzz at high heat, but I wouldn't know because I don't take it past medium, there's no need. It heats up very quickly on medium. Cleaning - A little bit of soap on a sponge does the job. I've never needed to use a scrubby. If it ever loses it's nonstick ability (mine has not) a little baking soda on a wet pan, scrubbed with a paper towel or blue scrubby will restore the nonstick finish. It works. If you've got a nonstick pan of any kind that is sticking, try it! Caveats - As with all nonstick, Zwilling advises low to medium heat, and NEVER use cooking sprays like Pam. The pan does function better with a little oil in it. Personally, I'd avoid frying anything in extra virgin olive oil because of it's low smoke point. That's just not good for cooking. I'm completely satisfied with this pan. As good as the ceramic finish is, the pan beneath is just as good, which makes cooking a joy. I highly recommend it.
Review: The perfect saute pan! - I don't think enough good things can be said about this line of cookware from JA Henckels. This cookware is just absolutely fabulous! It is definitely worth the step up in price, when compared to any other line of cookware. I've been cooking with a nice set of Cuisinart Multi-Clad cookware for the past two years. While the stainless steel pots and pans are usually a joy to cook with, they are not perfect. Food can easily stick to them during and after cooking, and clean-up is typically a hassle. I knew I wanted something more --- something with the good attributes of stainless steel multi-clad cookware, and something that was somehow at the same time non-stick. When I came across the Zwilling Spirit cookware by JA Henckels, I was sure I'd found what I was looking for. I decided upon starting out with the 3-qt. Saute Pan because it seems to be the most versatile piece of cookware, at least in my household. Perhaps (one of) the most pleasing aspect of the Zilling Spirit cookware is that it is a non-stick cookware that can be used with induction cooking. So, I use this saute pan most often on my Berghoff induction burner. I really like how, yet this saute pan is non-stick, it can still "brown" your food. You can also get the opportunity to deglaze the pan after cooking certain foods --- something most owners of non-stick cookware don't get the chance to do. The non-stick material in these pots and pans just acts differently, in a GOOD way. You can even use this cookware in the oven! Try doing that with your typical non-stick pan. The glass lid on this pan fits perfectly. I love being able to see how far my food is coming along without having to lift the lid. The handles on the lid are raised considerably high, so you don't usually need to use a pot holder when touching them. And the handles on the pan are very comfortable. They are thick, and they utilize the "V" shaped connection to the pan, so they won't get the slightest bit warm while cooking on the stove. Clean-up is, of course, a breeze. Many times I've just cleaned out the pan with a damp paper towel. Though every now and then you may want to give the outside of the pan some TLC and clean it with a little Bar Keeper's Friend. Just be careful to not get any of the BKF solution on the interior of the pan --- so as to protect the non-stick coating. And just in case any of you were wondering, NO METAL UTENSILS. I highly recommend this line to anyone who is looking for something more than the average cookware. These pots and pans are of superior quality. I assure you, you won't be disappointed!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this product Made in Germany?**
A: No, it's made in China.

**Q: Where is this pan made from?**
A: "Made in China" is etched into the bottom of the pan.

**Q: is the center of this pan flat or curved? (aka will liquid roll to the edges of the pan?)**
A: The center of this pan is flat and the liquid will stay in place.

**Q: Will the lid for this pan fit the matching 12 inch fry pan?**
A: No, the lid does not fit.  It will sit inside the fry pan and not seal around the edge.  If we need the fry pan covered we use a universal lid.  I would also advise not using high heat with this pan, as per the instructions.  However both these pans remain our go-to items in preference to a couple of other brands.  Bill Blankenship

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comparison to Duxtop and Cuisinart
*by G***R on February 16, 2013*

I have had these pans for a couple of months now, so it's time to jot down my initial impressions. The three brands and the pans I have are Cuisinart GGT19-18 GreenGourmet Tri-Ply Stainless 2-Quart Saucepan Zwilling J.A. Henckels 3-qt. Thermolon Ceramic Nonstick Spirit Saute Pan, 6-qt. Dutch Oven, and Duxtop Whole-Clad Tri-Ply Stainless Steel 3-Quart Saucepan and 10-Inch Fry Pan All these pans are made from 3-layer sandwiches of magnetic stainless steel on the outside to absorb heat from any stove, including induction, an aluminum layer to distribute the heat over the bottom since stainless steel is a poor heat conductor, and another layer of stainless steel on the inside. All have riveted handles, which is probably inevitable with pots made from a tri-layer sandwich. All have a lifetime warrantee. The nonstick pans have an additional layer to prevent sticking. I made a very rough estimate of the thickness of the aluminum layer, which is critical for heat distribution. Judging by how the edges are polished by the manufacturer, the three layers can, in places, be discerned and their thicknesses estimated. Here are my estimates: Duxtop: Total thickness: 2.7 mm (total thickness is the most accurate of the estimates). Outside SS: 0.7 mm, inside SS 0.3 mm, therefore the aluminum layer is about 1.7 mm. Zwilling-Henckels: Total thickness: 3.6 mm); Outside SS: 0.5 mm, inside SS 0.5 mm, therefore the aluminum layer is about 2.6 mm. Cuisinart: Total thickness: 2.7 mm; Outside SS: 0.8 mm; inside SS 0.6 mm, therefore the aluminum layer is about 1.3 mm. The Duxtop pans are by far the most beautiful, with a high polish to the stainless steel inside and out. The handles are heavy cast alloy, also highly polished, and the most comfortable handles in this group. The Duxtop, unlike the Cuisinart and Zwilling pans, do not have nonstick coating. They are ideal for cooking or heating soups and other liquids, and they do a fine job on eggs as long as there is sufficient butter in the pan. However, when it comes to foods that tend to stick, like oatmeal, the nonstick surfaces win out. Also on the negative side, the bottom of the 10-inch frying pan is sufficiently thin that on an induction heater that is only 4.5-inches in diameter, as many are, the edges of the pan are sufficiently cooler than the center that omelets are best done on gas. The highly polished interior does discolor when cooking some foods; however a light application of Bar Keepers Friend brings back the original luster. Not available with nonstick surface, and single piece selection is limited. An 8-piece set is quite reasonable priced. The Zwilling J.A. Henckels pans are somewhat more expensive than the other two and seem of the highest quality. The nonstick is free of both PTFE and PFOA, for those concerned with such things. The claim is that this coating is stable up to 850 F. The handles are perhaps the least comfortable of the three, but OK and not unattractive. The outside finish, while not having the high polish of the Duxtop, is businesslike. In general use, these also seem to spread the heat better than either Duxtop or Cuisinart, which is not surprising given their noticeably thicker aluminum layer. The see-through lids, which neither Duxtop nor Cuisinart have, are nice, though like the others the lid handles do get warm enough eventually that a pot-holder is advised. Of the three brands, this is my favorite. The Cuisinart pans have an outside polish similar to the Zwilling-Henckels with more-comfortable handles, but for their lower price they have thinner tri-ply and solid lids. The nonstick surface is claimed to be PTFE and PFOA free and good to 550 F in the oven. As I only have the 2-qt. pan, there's not much to say, but nothing to complain about. It has been fully nonstick for me, even for challenges like oatmeal, though some others with frying pans have complained about sticking. The bottom seems to spread the heat of a 4.5-inch induction heater better than the Duxtop does, in spite of the thinner estimated aluminum layer. That could be because the lower conductivity of the nonstick allows the aluminum to do its job before the heat makes it through the nonstick. There are reasonably priced sets available that should fill most kitchen needs, and several single pieces are available.
