Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

First of all, I rarely leave reviews on anything. I buy almost everything online so it would be way too time consuming to do that. That being said, when a product thoroughly impresses me or thoroughly disappoints me, game on. First impressions of the pan were great. Tramontina is a name I trust and have purchased their cookware multiple times in the past, how could I go wrong, right? The pan is huge at 14" something I really liked, especially non stick (think pancakes etc.) . Okay, so now the root of this review is simple, the pan WARPED in under a month. Now understand that I am an amateur chef with all the kitchen wares one could imagine. I know how to take care of all my kitchen stuff to have it last. That's why I won't hesitate to spend more money on something I know will perform better and last longer than the cheaper stuff. I treated this pan with care, like all of my kitchen investments. Always let it cool down before washing, never took it over the recommended temperature, never dry heated it for extended periods of time and still it warped. To say I was disappointed is an understatement. Maybe I got a fluke? Maybe mine was defective and the rest were/are not? This I do not know. All I know is that in my experience I could not recommend this pan. In fact, I'll go as far as to say look elsewhere and stay away from this pan. I hate to write this Tramontina but this pan is crap. Now this pan will be for basic non-essential foods that aren't fussy about even heat distribution. Like in the oven. Because on the stove top this thing spins like a bowl and everything in it shifts to whatever side it wants. Just a heads up, I hope this review can help at least one person make an informed decision. If so it was worth my time. Cook on my friends!
