T-fal Experience Non Stick Fry Pan w/Lid 10 Inch, Induction, Oven Broiler Safe 400F, Compatible with All Cooktops, Cookware, Deep Frying Pan, Cooking Skillet, Pots and Pans, Dishwasher Safe, Black

BEST PURCHASE BY MISTAKE EVER.So I already have an 11 inch wok and an 8 inch frying pan. So I wanted another frying pan especially when the boyfriend comes over and the food and process time doubles up. So I wanted to get one that was inbetween sizes and wouldn't defeat the purpose of my wok.was in search for a 9 inch frying pan but those are more difficult to find with quality. So I saw the good reviews this one got. I wanted a shallow frying pan as well and since it came with a lid i thought it was a nice bonus and I knew this was 10" (I tried to weigh out the pros and cons of 10" when I already have my 11" wok especially since I have a tiny stover in my kitchen right now that can't fit both at once perfectly). So when I got this I thought WOAH this is too huge. I was not expecting it to be so deep. I barely had space in my cupboard to store it and I was ready to package and return it. But you know what? I tested it out once and I made space for it! This frying pan has changed my cooking experience.One of the issues of having an electric stove is that coils don't sit flat. They're lean so my food is always drifting off into a corner while I'm trying to cook anything. Even with the wok I have the same problem. But this pan... is...a life changer. It's very sturdy and weighty that it makes the coil on the stove lay flat and my food isn't leaning (as much- every other pot would be at a 10° angle, this pot sits 4° this is all a rough estimation out my head). I can make large pancakes, I can fry bacon and eggs at the same time without the two colliding in the pan. My chicken dishes get cooked evenly without having to stir so much like in a wok. My wok still has it's usage for certain things but I'm loving what this pan can do so far. It's very easy to clean because of it's non stick feature. I would highly recommend this to someone else in need of frying pan as well as a nice cooking pan to anyone.I must say I read that when the pan is ready the t-fal will turn red but I'm yet to see that happen. Oh well. It works great without that sign.

Bought this as a replacement for a worn out one I’ve had for years. The quality is great and identical to my previous pan. I use it several times a day and especially love that it has the cover.

Love it

I deliberately waited for a while to write a review on this pan so I can review about its durability. It is now eight months since I've been using it and I use it regularly. I am someone who cooks regularly and am comfortable with making recipes that are elaborate and time-consuming. I make traditional American recipes but I also cook French, Indian and to an extent Mexican food all of which require durable pans. As an avid cook, I also must admit I'm harsh with my utensils so the pans I had purchased from the run-of-the-mill brands usually looked quite used or scratched by 8 months.I decided to purchase this pan because I desperately needed a nice pan but also I have a bias towards this brand T-Fal (or TeFal) since the brand is French and so am I. I also of course read all the raving reviews here on Amazon but had a hard time believing that a pan so good would be so cheap. I have payed five times more for pans in brick and mortar stores for a lot less quality. During the last 8 months, I have done everything under the sun that you would expect to do with a pan; sauté, fry, boil, re-heat, slow heat etc. I have cooked hard vegetables (like carrots), soft veggies (like kale), fruits, all kinds of meat and lentils. Some of my cooking which is normally extremely demanding on the average pan takes very little toll on this one. This pan really IS non-stick. I have REALLY deep fried chicken Southern style yet all the scrapings came off with almost no muscle power. Both the pan and the lid are completely unaffected by my ratty old dishwasher which could use a replacement. The thermo-spot heat indicator is an added bonus for me. Now I don't have to play guessing games anymore on when the oil is preheated enough to sauté or fry items. However the only caveat is the scratch-resistant part. Yes, compared to the run-of-the-mill pan, this pan holds up well against scratches but it is not 100% scratch-proof. There were couples of occasions that I can remember where I cleaned the pan in a jiffy with a wire brush which caused a dinger on the pan (which you can clearly see in the picture). So definitely don't expect this to be fully immune against scratching from metal. But other than that, this pan has held up really well to my use of the pan and has become my favorite pan of all. I find myself always picking this pan from the rest when I'm cooking. I like when a kitchen utensil is functional but I like it even more when the utensil is also hassle-free cleaning because while I love cooking, I hate the aftermath cleaning part. So in that regards, this pan is also great because it requires minimal effort to get it looking sparkly again. For the price I paid, I'm extremely pleased with the quality and durability of this pan and recommend it to anyone who needs pans on the daily. I'm attaching pictures of the pan from when I received it (that's the picture with the T-Fal booklet), during various cooking processes and one taken 8 months after use. I hope my review was helpful.
