Caraway Non-Stick Ceramic Fry Pan (2.7 Quart 10.5") - Non-Toxic PTFE & PFOA Free - Oven Safe & All Stovetop Safe (Gas, Electric, IH) - Cream

Nice

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.

Caraway makes you write a review to get a warrant, so I immediately docked them a star for that nonsense. The pan is beautiful. I'm hoping that there's a learning curve with ceramic because within minutes of receiving the package, which I liked because everything is recyclable in he packaging, I cooked a fried egg. I paid the high price for the pan because I'm trying to use PFAS-free cookware. Recently, I returned a set of 5-ply all-clad pots and pans that were beautiful, but I could not figure out how I was going to jump from cheap non-stick to stainless steel and not ruin every meal and cookware item because the learning curve was too steep. So when the caraway pan came, I fried an egg in it to test it out before the pther pot I ordered arrives. How did I do? Well, the heating was very slow, and it took the egg much longer to cook than in my cheap, toxic, scratched-up non-stick pan. Also, I don't like that caraway tells you not to use the spray version of Olive Oil. To make sure I have a nice balance of not too much, I always use a high-quality, organic, non-aerosol olive oil spray, and maybe that was the issue today-- slow to cook and runny. On the plus side, nothing stuck, easy to clean, the bump out on the handle where it's still safe to touch while cooking is nice. The pan is slightly heavy but not horrible. The color is nice. I think it might take a while to figure out the technique of ceramic cookware.

This pan worked well for about 10 months, since then everything sticks, basically unable to cook nice easy over eggs. Impossible to make an omelette since everything sticks. Can’t believe I paid $200+ for this. I treated the pan always with great care, there are absolutely no scratches on it, nevertheless, all the food sticks, even slices of bacon! Extremely disappointed, indeed!

This is a great pan as long as you follow the things that you are told to do. It really is very easy to use. Just don’t put it on high heat for very long if at all.
