Rachael Ray Hard Anodized Nonstick 12-Inch Open Skillet, Orange VERY GOOD SET

Fantastic Large Skillet, (What's this?) I added this skillet to the set of Rachael Ray matching cookware and it is great for cooking larger quanties of food. It also gives you more room to turn omlets and browning large roasts. This skillet heats evenly over the entire surface. It needs to be hand washed like any fine cookware. I had hoped for a 12" glass cover, but I had to get one from a cheaper skillet, doesn't match, but works. I am very happy with my purchase.
Good Pan, (What's this?) Very good pan. My wife loves Racheal Ray stuff. Our cabinets are full of her pans.Shipping was fast. Thanks Amazon.
Awesome!, (What's this?) My hubby doesn't like "star powered" products, he thinks they're hokey. However, he LOVES this pan as much as I do. Who cares about the orange, it's the best non-stick pan I've ever used and I've tried at least 6 different brands. I would recommend this line of cookware to anybody.
OK, but ..., We had one of these and really liked it, but then the Teflon started coming off - big time. There were three people in the house using this, so I can't vouch for how the pan was treated, but we do tend to use plastic with Teflon.

In September, I bought another just like it, and I was determined to make sure that only plastic utensils were used with it. After just three months, the Teflon is coming off. I know that the problem is with the pan and not with the users because I was the principal user and the only washer, and I know the others used plastic tools when cooking.

This is a nice-looking large pan that cooks very well, but I don't like eating Teflon.

Speaking of "large," measurements can be deceptive. The 12" on this product refers to the cooking surface, while most other pans measure from the outside rim. This makes it difficult to know what you are getting unless you buy in a store - something I seldom do. Give me Amazon Prime every time.
Misrepresented item, (What's this?) This is a well made, reasonably priced, but, misrepresented skillet.
If a skillet is advertised as a 12 inch skillet, it should have a 12 inch surface to cook on. This skillet actually measures 8 1/2 inches on the bottom. It is 12 inches at the top. I don't cook on the top, so, it was returned. If you are looking for a skillet that has an 8 1/2 inch bottom surface, this 12" skillet is for you.
fry pan, rachel ray, (What's this?) The pan was larger than I expected, but that was OK with me! It is really great - no sticking and easy to use.
VERY GOOD SET, (What's this?) I like the set very much. Easy to clean. I had been worried about the orange handles. I thought they would be to delicate. They are great. Everything cooks great in them. Pans go from stove top to oven. Best set of cookware I owned so far.
3 yrs now and no peeling,still performs very well., This is a well made product. I do not have a dishwasher and always use plastic type utensils. Before now other brands had started to peel and or flake. Heats evenly too.
Fantastic pan, (What's this?) We have had this pan a few weeks and love it so far. The handle does stay cool. It is incredibly easy to clean. The heating is really even, even though that's not always true with our stove. The sides are a bit higher than I'm used to, so for something like pancakes it's a bit harder to flip, but it works great for most things, and the surface makes flipping easy.
Love this pan!!!, (What's this?) I purchased this pan after trying out the smaller 8" skillet. I love it! It is a great size, perfect for cooking a one dish meal for my family. It cleans up really nice even without using a dishwasher (which is not recommended).

Rachael Ray Hard Anodized Nonstick 10-Inch Open Skillet, Orange Terrific Skillet

It's a good product, (What's this?) We've only been using this pan for a month, but so far it lives up to its high ratings. It has made it a pleasure making omelets, and over-easy fried eggs.
Great all purpose pan., This has been an excellent pan. Durable, easy to clean and a good size for many different types of meals.
love these pans, (What's this?) I bought three of these different size pans, and they all cook wonderfully, and clean up very easily. handle stays cool.
You get what you pay for, (What's this?) I have had this skillet for 6 months. It is a good skillet for the price. It is light weight - not so light that it is flimsly, but not as heavy as a better quality skillet.

I have seen the reviews and advertisements on QVC where it cooks eggs so well, but that is not my experience. On my better quality skillets, I don't have to use butter or spray for the eggs to slide off, but with this skillet I do. It does ok on fried eggs; however, scrambled still sticks, even with costant stirring. Last time I scrambled 8 eggs and at least 1 remained stuck to the skillet.

Also, I cook meatloaf patties and they tend to burn on the bottom even on a low heat. Which, of course, they are left under cooked in the middle. On a heavier, better quality skillet, they don't burn on a higher heat and are evenly cooked throughout.

I definitely have to pick and choose what I cook in it or modify my expectations on how the food will turn out. I would not buy this skillet again. I will save up my money for a better quality one.
After furhter review, (What's this?) The Rachael Ray skillet comes with a wrapper that contains way too much information on how to use it. One of the words of wisdom says "do not use oils (except for the one or two they recommend) since their build up will only reduce the skillets performance. So, I did not use my Pam and discovered that my eggs STUCK to the pan regardless of how low or high I had the burner set. Finally I used my Pam and the skillet worked exactly the way I had hoped. So, don't read the jacket with all its instructions and use this pan the way you normally would and it's GREAT.
Likeable, Good Quality Pan--Just Not for Induction Tops, I bought this to replace a basic Calphalon 10" non-stick pan. The first thing I noticed was that even though this is also a 10", the sloping sides of the Rachael Ray meant there is much less flat area at the bottom. Whereas I used to be able to fit three pieces of French toast at a time, now I can really only do two. :-(

As mentioned by another reviewer, this is primarily a breakfast pan. Great for eggs, pancakes, browning sausages, etc. but not heavy enough to sear steaks. I find the non-stick both slippery and durable. Hand washing is a snap, except that scrambled eggs get stuck onto the two exposed metal rivets, so I usually use a nylon brush.

I associate anodized with heavy cookware, but this pan is really quite light.
Rachel Ray 10 inch Pan, (What's this?) Nice pan that has performed very well. Very easy to clean. I would have preferred getting a pan that had a higher temp capability but no issues so far. Good price and quick delivery.
Terrific Skillet, This is a replacement skillet for a similar skillet I purchased. It is just the right size for breakfast and one we use a lot. Easy to clean and lightweight enough for my wife to use as well.
Rachael Ray Skillet, (What's this?) This is everything I was wanting in a skillet. Nonstick small enough to fit the eye of my stove. Light enough for me to carry. Handle is convenient and seems to fit my hand. So far nothing I have cooked with sticks to this pan. I like it because my other lid from another pan fits it. I am thinking about buying the bigger size now because this skillet performs so well.
Great Skillet, (What's this?) Love this pan and the 12" size I purchased at the same time. Hadn't looked at in stores, so I didn't totally know what to expect, but they are very nice...

Over Easy Omelette Express

my daughter loves it!, (What's this?) I bought this as a Christmas gift for my daughter. She recently got her own apartment and loves to cook, I thought this would be a neat gadget for her to use. She made some doughnuts yesterday, cinnamon sugar,chocolate and plain and they were very tasty.
omelet maker, (What's this?) I found that this product cooked on one side and not the other and the omelette is hard to get out without tearing up. I was a little disappointed.
Omelete pan, (What's this?) I would like it better if there was a way to control how hot it cooked. But you plug it in, and it's on. It is too easy to burn the omeletes. I made several, and never could get an omelete without a brown crust on the outside. If I would have taken it out sooner it wouldn't have been completely cooked. I am really disappointed there is no heat control, but the quality of the unit itself is pretty impressive (which is why I still gave it 4 stars).
Over Easy Omelet Maker, (What's this?) I purchased this omelet maker and it worked great the only thing is it gets a little to brown for me,but i will experiment with it further.Good price and I recommend it.
Over Easy Omelets, (What's this?) What a great product. Its design allows you to make fantastic omelets and to include the "goodies" that make each omelet special. I know...
Great one!!!, (What's this?) This is a great way to start (or finish) your day!!! I am trying to eat a "paleo" oriented diet and well, making steak ommelette with bacon doesn't get any easier than with this little piece of machinery.
Well made, but that's about it, (What's this?) I agree with "Retired Guy." By the time the eggs have set, the bottom of the omelet is burned. I have to take the omelet out when it is only half set (no easy task) and nuke it the rest of the way. And even then, the bottom is too brown for me. The pan doesn't hold much filling. I also don't like that the filling gets mixed in with the eggs, and if you use cheese it has to be melted on top after the eggs have set. I prefer all the filling inside with half of the omelet folded over the filling. I'm going to sell it in a garage sale and keep looking for an omelet pan.
NOT PRACTICAL, (What's this?) I purchased this item to replace an electric omelet pan made by Toastmaster(before that it was made by Maxim) THE VERY BEST Omelet maker there is. Unfortunately, the pans only last 5-6 years. I thought this pan could replace it. The fact that you cook on one side, then flip it over and hope that the food is separated and falls into the 2 separated sides ..it is just too clumsy of an item. It has to pivot on a narrow base in order to flip it. It is so much easier just to use a regular pan than all of that separating, flipping etc. I just put it away. No plans to use it again.
Works as advertised., (What's this?) The flip over idea is great.
Superior Omlet Maker, (What's this?) I have had similar units and none ever matched the quality of this one. It is very well made, heats quickly and is extremely easy to use. The nonstick surface is the most durable I have seen; and, the unit is versatile and can be used not only for omelets, but also stuffed tortillas and similar foods. The price is also the most reasonable of similar units. Highly recommended.

Starfrit 11 inch Light Cast Iron Fry Pan

Shocking, All the best properties of a Wok (heat transfer, size, no sticking, very light weight for cast iron, cool handle(s), just wipes clean, and me and my mate are loving everything that comes out of it). This is the finest piece of cookware I have ever used and I am a cook, and I am 61 years old.
Cooks great but ceramic layer wears away fast, While this is still one of my favorite pans to use, I only give it two stars because of the loss of some good sized areas of the ceramic coating. It rusts quickly if it is ever left wet, so I am constantly having to re-oil it due to new patches of exposed cast iron showing up. That being said, this pan is the best I have used for cooking meat; I like cooking stirfry korean food, and chicken curry, and this pan just heats so uniformly and perfectly.
Great Cast Iron Pan, (What's this?) I have loved my cast iron pan. It does not scratch, easy to clean, and very light. I have bought several of them for family members and the bigger size for myself also. I would highly recomment this pan to anyone.
Thank you Starfrit!, (What's this?) I bought both the 11" & 12" skillets! It's not that I don't have a life, ha ha, but these skillets make me VERY HAPPY! We just moved to an area where a gas stove is not really an option so our old HEAVY cast iron skillet made me nervous on the electric ceramic top. We love to cook our proteins by searing/blackening them in the cast iron at high heat & then placing the pan in the oven to finish it off...we can now do this again with our Starfrit cast iron skillets!! YUM...
Starfrit frying pan 11", (What's this?) I had bought a smaller version and have been using it for different things. The most amazing thing it is it makes great eggs over easy. They come out great all the time unless I mess up myself. I now roast veggies in the new one cause it is bigger.
Perfect for Slow Heating Smoothtops, I use the 9.5" every day for frying eggs with healthful coconut oil (ask Dr. Oz).
Pan heats extremely fast, Then I turn it down by 40%. The key is to not cook to high a temperatures as food will burn to the bottom. Also oils oxidize at high temps and are bad for your health.
So I never deep fry.
As with other ceramic pans don't use metal in them at all, as it will pierce the coating.
Great Until Wife Used High Heat, (What's this?) I loved this!! Heated quickly, cooked evenly, and the ceramic non-stick surface worked great. Then the wife used it on high heat and the surface has some discoloration and sticks. So don't buy it if someone else is going to abuse it. So I do recommend it, but I'm switching to cast iron.
A Great Cooking Tool, (What's this?) I have two of the smaller skillets and wanted the larger one. Cooking in these skillets is so much better. The heat is even and therefore you can cook on a lower heat setting and cleanup is a breeze. I love to cook and these are the best skillets that I have ever used.
Starfrit pans are wonderful!, (What's this?) I love my Starfrit pan. It is 11 inch. Nothing sticks and it is much lighter than my old cast iron pan. It is seasoned well it seems. The 8 inch Excel Steele pan I bought is not so hot. Food sticks unless I use lots of oil.
Starfrit is the bomb.
Love these pans!, (What's this?) I am over 50 years old and have always done a lot of cooking. I wish that this product was available earlier in my life, because they do a wonderful job. The weight of the pans and heat it brings is perfect. I am glad that I purchased three different Starfrit pans. The preseasoned finish does a great job for non-stick also.

Cuisinart 722-24NS Chef's Classic Nonstick Stainless 10-Inch Open Skillet

Great skillet!, (What's this?) Cuisinart Chef's Classic Nonstick Stainless 10-inch Open Skillet
This is a great non-stick skillet. Very balanced, good weight. Performs well. Very happy with my choice.
No Non-stick, (What's this?) I was excited when opening the box and seeing a really good-looking pan. Washed it with warm water and soap before first use. The first use was a charm. It performed just as published. Hand washed and towel dried separately. About the third use started to notice a decrease in performance. Now it doesn't seem to perform any better than cheaper brands. Also, there is an annoying clicking as it is heated. I am assuming it is the sandwiched metal expanding and contracting. I would rate heat conductivity as good.
Love this pan..., (What's this?)
Wedding Gift, (What's this?) This item arrived timely. It seemed to be a good weight and easily handled. I bought this for a wedding gift. The bride and groom were pleased.
Great Nonstick Skillet, (What's this?) This pan looks great, cooks everything well, and is super easy to clean in the dishwasher.
Don't play Cuisinart's manipulative little games!, (What's this?) This is a decent enough non-stick frying pan, but it's also been a quite annoying.

I'd decided there's no such thing as a durable non-stick pan, & so chose this medium quality, medium price one. I had lots of 10" lids lying around, so didn't buy one at the time. I dicovered, however, that this 10" frying pan is really a 9&1/2" frying pan & none of my lids would fit. Cuisinart puts a 1/4" flange around the lip of the pan, saves a little in materials costs, and makes a little extra profit on each one sold. I guess it must add up.

So I came back to Amazon to purchase a lid, only to discover that Cuisinart only sells lids in pairs of two! What's the thinking here? Again, they make some extra money on the deal. I wound up purchasing a Faberware 10" lid (ASIN: B00006IFQS) that the Amazon reviews helpfully mentioned was a little small.
NOT WORTH THE MONEY, We purchased one of these pans about 3 years ago. Cuisinart claimed you could use metal unensils with it so we did. After about a year the coating was badly scratched and food was sticking to it. We decided it was our fault and purchased another one.

This time we never used metal with it and were very careful not to scratch it with anything. It lasted almost two years but now food is sticking to this one. No amount of cleaning helps either. The skillet still looks great but it is useless now. I've tried to contact customer service but they're not responding. Apparently their "lifetime warranty" is worthless.
Worth the money, (What's this?) This skillet is just as expected. It is great for cooking anything from eggs to meat. Clean up is a breeze.
Poorly balanced and not flat, (What's this?) I was very excited to get this... so maybe I'm more disappointed than I should be for the price. This is a heavy pan with a nice thick non stick coating... but I don't actually use the pan because the balance is off. It tips far more than my super cheap lighter weight pan. Maybe it would be better on a grill on a gas stove but if you've got an already tippy electric stove this is *not* the right pan.
Perfect for a couple eggs, (What's this?) I bought this pan almost exclusively to make fried eggs. My other pans are all stainless steel and it's just too much of a hassle to cook an egg on them. The 8" is the perfect size for two eggs, and the nonstick surface works very well.

Anolon Nouvelle Copper Hard Anodized Nonstick 12-Inch Skillet

Very nice pan, (What's this?) This is flat bottomed, and works very well with our glass topped electric stove. I can't comment on durability, because I haven't had it very long. This is very well built, has a great non stick coating, strong handles that stay cool, and cooks very evenly on my electric stove. The paperwork (or box, don't recall) say it's okay to use metal utensils with it.
Great Pan, (What's this?) I LOVE this pan. I have an Anolon set and wanted a bigger skillet. The Nouvelle Copper is an upgrade to me not solely because of the bottom material but also because the handle is attached without rivets, so the inside is smooth for cleanup. No cleaning around protruding rivets!

Really great pan.
Favorite Skillet, This is my all-time favorite skillet. I have had the skillet for a bit over a year now. I cook nearly every day, and this is the skillet I reach for most often. It cooks very evenly, without noticeable hot spots. I like to cook using fairly high heat, and I have not found this to be a porblem. Cleanup is wonderful too, as it does not have the usual protruding rivets on the inside. I have not tried using metal utensils with this skillet -- I love it so much I would not want to take a chance on damaging it! i just inspected it under strong lighting, and did find tiny scratches on the cooking surface (hadn't noticed them before), but they are not deep, don't go through to the metal. I will probably purchase more pieces from this line.
Real great pan, (What's this?) I do alot of cooking and have tried a half dozen pans. This one is one of the best so far. It heats evenly and cleans very easily.
Induction problem..., Nice pans but the bottoms tend to want to delaminate when used on induction stove... Avoid overheating these at all costs..

Fox Run Non-Stick Folding Omelet Pan

Difficult to use, Since the Nordic Ware omelet pan got some negative ratings, I thought I would try this pan. Unfortunately, it has the same problems that plague the Nordic Ware pan:

The metal is very thin. As a result, it is difficult to get even heating so you can burn part of the omelet while other areas are not cooked. It is also essential that you use very low heat.
Awesome omelet pan!, (What's this?) I was very impressed with the Fox Run Non-Stuck Folding Omelet Pan. It was not very expensive, but the company could very well charge more for this high quality product. This was bought for my mom for Christmas and she just loves to use it. The pan is very easy to clean and it also cooks very evenly, without browning your omelet. Very good value for the price. Would definitely recommend this to anyone in the market for an omelet pan.
