Earth Pan Nonstick Cookware 10-Inch Skillet, Terra Cotta



Great concept poorly executed, BOO FARBERWARE!
Unlike a lot of people, I don't have any issue with the look of this cookware. Yes, it's a little "sparkly" but not overly so - you can't see it unless you're really looking at it - and I don't care if the inside is the same color as the outside, I think that's kind of cool...my issue is with EVERYTHING else.

I bought this cookware because of the less hazardous, POFA, PTFE-free nonstick coating. I'm a personal chef with very health-conscious clents. The cookware was babied from the second it came out of the box, per manufacturer's guidelines, and this is what I've found:

The non-stick coating is as expected. For a few weeks. Even with careful washing, drying and treatment, with less than 2 months of use the non-stick properties start to wane and stuff starts to stick, even with a little oil in the pan (scrambled eggs never really turn out great in these pans, not sure why but it's not me or the eggs - it happened with the brand new pan that replaced the clearly...

GR8! PAN!!!!
Well I was hoping I could give a review on this product. Here goes:
It was received in a very timely manner! I use this pan almost every day. Seems to be of a better quality than the teflon non stick options out there. I love that it does NOT contain the harmful stuff thats in teflon, dupont, etc. Nice size, color and love the handle too, its silicone. Its very easy to handle and has a nice feel to it!
I L-O-V-E it!!!!!!!! I believe the price was a fair price for such good quality! Seems to be easier cleanup than other pans...SO GLAD I made the purchase. I only hope they come out with more items-like perhaps a 3 or 4 or 5 qt. sauce pot. I dont remember seeing any. Perhaps sometime in the near future; If and when they do, and I IF I can afford more of these "Earth Pans-I would definitely buy more!!!!!!!

not so good
I was just looking for a fry pan to replace the Tefon one I have that was worn out. This pan was the closest to it. Be aware these pans aren't a durable as the Teflon. After a few weeks I got a big scratch in it and I wasn't doing anything different than I did with the Teflon pan. I'll stick with the Teflon from now on. Be careful of what you cook in it. I tried cooking some ground meat in it and I had to soak it and strap it out to get rid of the food I cooked. I'm just glad I didn't get the whole set like I wanted in the first place.
