Caraway Nonstick Ceramic Mini Fry Pan (1.05 qt, 8") - Non Toxic, PTFE & PFOA Free - Oven Safe & Compatible with All Stovetops (Gas, Electric & Induction) - Cream

I have long needed to replace my last everyday egg pan, and after much research, I settled on the Caraway 8" ceramic mini fry pan. It was pricey, but upon receiving it, I was impressed by the weight and quality of the pan. I have cooked in it several times, and unlike my previous Great Jones Small Fry, it is so non-stick that it barely needs to be cleaned after use. The pan is beautifully designed, weighted well for handling on a stove, and an absolute joy to cook with. I have since also purchased the accompanying lid and am very pleased with it, as well.

I recently picked up two Caraway frying pans for my wife—because one pan clearly wasn’t going to cut it anymore. She’s been using Caraway for a while now, and the quality just keeps impressing us. These frying pans heat evenly, clean easily, and look great in the kitchen (which matters more to her than I ever realized). She loves how light they feel without sacrificing durability, and the non-toxic coating gives her peace of mind when cooking every day. Caraway continues to be her favorite brand—not just for how well their products work, but for how thoughtfully they’re made. Another win. And yes, I’m still riding the “best gift giver” high.

Fantastic pan. Works great on stove top and in oven. Frittata just slides out onto plate with no fuss. Follow instructions for heating and cleaning - I usually clean right after cooking however this pan needs to cool down before cleaning. I love the color too. I am very happy with this pan as it meets my needs particularly being able to handle higher oven temperature.

Happy with our Caraway flying pan. It is nonstick and food just glides off pan. Very easy to clean. Probably will purchase more products since excellent value.

I purchased this pan about one month ago, and have used it daily since receiving it. And I will say - this Caraway fry pan - well there’s something just not right about it. Something that just doesn’t add up. After a single use, food began adhering to the pan’s cooking surface. Not just eggs, mind you; which is probably the main thing most of us hope to use our nonstick cookware for. Everything sticks. Bacon sticks. Sausage sticks. Potatoes stick. Meats, veggies - shoot, a slice of bread sticks to this pan. Would you like to simply to warm something from the fridge, reheat leftovers? Nope. It will stick. If you can cook something in this pan, it will stick to this pan. And not just a little bit of stick. No, no, no, my friends. Look to some of the other very low reviews. See the video evidence. There’s a whole lot of stick. A tear your food up trying to get it out of the pan and on to the plate kind of stick. And then a soak in hot water and scrape stuff out kind of stick. And then a do it again to get what you couldn’t get out after all that kind of stick. Following the recommended cleaning method of a bringing a cup of water with two tbls of baking soda to boil for several minutes and then rinsing…stuff sticks. No amount of cleaning, nor method of cleaning seems to affect the performance. Neither does cooking technique. Cook on low, stuff sticks. Cook on medium, stuff sticks. Cook with oil, sticks. No oil, sticks. Truly preposterous. This said, however, this is not merely a poor non stick pan; it is a poor pan. The handle, though ergonomically sound and comfortable to grip, transfers heat far too readily. On a gas range, it quickly becomes ‘too hot to handle.’ Beyond the five minute mark, even on low heat, you will be burned by the handle. Additionally, the pan’s exterior surface cannot be kept clean, which for a daily use pan isn’t critical in my book, excepting that the finish seems designed to have stuff actually adhere to it. Again, not especially off putting for me as I believe in function over aesthetics, but I find it strange this should be so. That said, my expectations for this pan were fairly straight forward. I hoped for a decently made nonstick pan that would heat mostly evenly, that would be mostly nonstick, that would function in my working kitchen alongside some other quality cookware that consists exclusively of copper clad stainless steel and cast iron. I looked very forward to a more healthful alternative to the everyday nonstick more typically relied upon. And I hoped to get perhaps as much as a year’s use of the pan before having to replace it. I take care of my cookware. I always use soft implements, never metal, and always rely upon gentle cleaning methods - soft sponges and plastic scrappers only if necessary. Given the performance of this pan, at this point, however, I am disappointed across the board. I also must and do question any and all claims made as to this cookware’s efficacy. As well as the efficacy of any claims or reviews that would laud its performance as commendable. I am, in short, severely skeptical. I know my way around a kitchen, and as far as I’m concerned, I will not deign to so much as boil water in it at this point. It has no redeeming qualities given its performance. And given its performance, I cannot help but to doubt its other claims as to being a healthier alternative to other cookware options. Given the $100 price tag for the pan, one must conclude that such a high relative cost is primarily for covering marketing and profit. And I would challenge anyone willing to make contrary claims as to this pan’s performance to prove such claims as anything better than specious. From my experience, this appears to be a clear matter of consumer grift. Given what my experience with this product has been, there is simply no other reasonable explanation. Out of the box, it does look nice; it does feel nice. First cook: it works nice. And then the honeymoon is over. And the fight is on. Sorry to say, if you bought this thing, you already lost.

The Caraway fry pan delivers on its biggest selling point: a non‑toxic, ceramic nonstick surface that’s free from PTFE, PFOA, PFAS and heavy metals — great if you prefer cleaner cooking with easy food release and simple cleanup. It heats evenly, works on all stovetops, and is oven safe up to 550°F, so it’s versatile from sautéing veggies to frying eggs. The design and comfort of the handle also make it pleasant for everyday use. That said, the ceramic coating isn’t immortal — many users note that it can wear down over time and requires gentle care (no metal utensils, hand wash recommended), and the exterior can stain or chip with heavy use. Price‑quality: For what it costs, this pan feels like a good value if your priority is non‑toxic, easy‑to‑use cookware with a sleek look. It isn’t the longest‑lasting nonstick overall, but it’s enjoyable and reliable for daily cooking when treated right.

Unfortunately I received the item but it was worn out like it has been used! I waited over 2 weeks for delivery and now it arrived in a questionable state!

Arrived exactly as described.

This is the best pan I have used. I have banned anyone in my family from using it . I like my eggs not sticking to a pan, but for that I will risk a divorce

Caraway is not a good brand. There’s far better ceramic cookware. The ceramic coating starts peeling off in less than a year of use. For the price, you would definitely expect a premium item. This is not the case.

Love, love, love this pan. No more cleaning stuck on food and best of all, it simply wipes clean with a soft sponge or cloth. I am going to purchase another pan in a different size.
