Great Pan / Misleading Description
Most of my cookware is either Calphalon (non-stick) or Cuisinart (stainless). A 10" skillet is my daily "go to" pan. I have larger and smaller but I really needed another 10" one for omelettes and the like. I was about to buy another Calphalon when I read a very positive review of the Pure Living pan on Tasting Table, saw that the price was right on Amazon, and ordered one. I absolutely love it! It is used at least once a day for sauteing fish, chicken or vegetables and is a dream for eggs. Classic French omelettes are easily folded and slide right out onto the plate. In addition, cleanup couldn't be easier. Once it has cooled, I simply wipe it out with a paper towel, finish with a soapy sponge, and towel dry. It looks just as good as it did on day one. I should point out that the Amazon description is misleading in two respects. It states: "Soft touch and ergonomic silicone riveted handle, sear and deglaze with ease, cook at high temperature (up to 750-degree f)." That 750 ºF rating is for the ceramic coating only, not the entire pan. WearEver's site explains that the product is "Oven safe to 350 ºF if handles have any silicone or phenolic parts." Amazon's description further states, "...safe for all cooking methods except induction." What WearEver says is "...safe for all cooking SURFACES(except induction)." The emphasis on "surfaces" is mine. All cooking "methods" would include broiler use for which it is not suitable because of the silicone handle. Do those differences detract from the product in my view? No, not at all. For range top use it is the best non-stick pan I have ever used. The fact that it is a bargain, makes it even better.
