Ceramic Marble Coated Non Stick Cast Aluminium Fry Pan with Lid, 20 cm (8 inches)

I love these pans! I saw the StoneDine infomercials and wanted to replace my aging teflon set. But I didn't want to pay over a hundred bucks for an 11-inch frying pan. Last November, I found the 12-inch Marble Ware frying pan on Amazon for just under $39. The pan amazed me. It can handle high heat, doesn't stain, and cleans up ridiculously easy. At less than half the price of the StoneDine equivalent, this was a no-brainer!I did read one bad review about the chemical DEHP being in the non-stick coating, but I have not been able to verify the claims made by the reviewer, including the fact that she said there was a warning label on the pan stating that the nonstick coating contains DEHP and to "use at your own risk." Trust me, I really tried. The reason I'm replacing my teflon is that they leech highly toxic gases when more than medium heat is applied to them. The EPA has a scheduled ban on teflon in cookware to begin in 2015, unless the industry can figure out a way to keep it from breaking down under heat. Ceramic coated cookware appears to be the post-teflon future.Because of my experience with the 11-incher, I purchased the 8-inch omelette pan and the 13-inch wok. They appear to have a slightly different finish and design, but they are essentially identical in performance. My 11-incher has the trademark "Joy Cook" on the bottom and a completely black handle. The other pans have "KW" on the bottom and a chrome insert on the handle. Although I purchased them all through Amazon, my 11-incher (Joy Cook)was from M.V. Trading Company, and all the others(KW)were from SmartDeals411.I'm not a professional cook. I'm just a single guy that wants stuff that works well and is easily maintained. Unlike most ceramic coated cookware, these are completely coated, inside and out, making clean up easier than any other pan I have ever used.

I have owned several non-stick skillets and frying pans previously, but none of them came close to the quality of this ceramic marble coated non-stick cast aluminium pan. After using it for a couple of weeks I returned to Amazon.com and bought the pot version of the pan made by the same Korean manufacturer. I have seen the "As Seen on the TV" ceramic skillets but they are not made with the same layers of materials that make this skillet tough, truly non-stick, and a breeze to clean. Also, I prefer to buy from Amazon.com because you know exactly how much the item costs, including shipping charge, and the purchase is protected by Amazon.com, should something go wrong. I recommend this skillet for anyone looking for a true non-stick, tough, and easy to clean cookware.

It’s an ok pan. Pretty light weight tho. The eggs get a little crispy by the time the inside white part is done. I cooked several eggs at different times on different levels of heat with the same results. It does good st not sticking but I don’t like crispy eggs. But for the price I will Deal with it

After 3 months of use, the coating/paint on the bottom of the pan is coming off, leaving a light brown undercoating. Very disappointed after spending more than $35 on an 8" fry pan. Other than that, we like the pan cooking surface, but obviously the pan isn't going to last very long with the bottom coating coming off. I would very much like to hear from the manufacturer or even the seller on this issue. The pan has never been in the dishwasher, and is only every handled by two careful adults.

At first sight it seems great. But after you have used it you realize the handle is too big and too heavy for the pan so is always tipping over. The bottom of the pan is not flat so that makes the tipping over worse. The manufacturer put a plastic washer to hold the screw that holds the cover knob inside the cooking area which has melted. If they are not smart enough to use plastic that could withstand the heat, they probably have made other mistakes that in turn could affect your health. I am wondering how much of the melted plastic has entered my body. So I am forced to throw this pan away due to very poor engineering.

it suits my needs

This was the second one I bought for a friend. First one for myself and I use it every day. Great for cooking small portions and it has a lid! It's lightweight, but really holds the heat. Cooks eggs great and easy to clean up.

The perfect pan with the perfect coating - Ceramic Marble. Cooks nicely, cleans easily and the glass lid is a plus, too. Pleased with this purchase.
