We have spent a lot more for pans that advertise that they will move Mountains etc. They never do and in a couple of months into the waste bin they go.These pans are amazing and now we have ordered in every size..

I love this pan! I have used it daily and still works great. The pan is deep enough to do sauces and add 4 chicken breasts. Easy to clean too. I do not have issues with food sticking to the pan. The pan is great quality, it is thick and very durable.

3 years later and the pan still going strong. I use is several times a week and cook everything in it from bacon to burgers to fried cabbage and much more. It's lost some of its non-stick features but that's due to me breaking the rules of not cooking on high gas heat. It still cleans easily regardless of the non-stick being depleted a bit. I also use cast skillets which are well seasoned so they are also easily cleaned and I can't decide which is better. I also have used metal spatulas and have not ruined the finish doing so. I bought the smaller version several months ago so I'm set on my cookware...for now.

Always liked T-Fal

Works like a charm! What a pleasure to use after dealing with my formerly non-stick pan!

This is a good, non-stick pan for the money. I've owned 3. I use it 3-4 times weekly, and put it in the dishwasher every time. The non-stick properties last about 18 months. When it starts to stick, I throw is away an buy another. Easy peezy.

Ok, still don't know how the red dot thing is supposed to work. :-)After owning several non-stick pans, this one is the best so far. It can go in the dishwasher, but recommend hand washing. Only takes a few seconds. Most of the time, I'll cook the food, slide it out and then grab a cloth and soap, give it a quick wash and hang it up. Done washing by the time the hoards (2 kids and wife) has descend.

Para los que tenemos estufa de inducción: ESTÁ MUY GRANDE!Calienta muy rápido. La curé 3 veces.Voy a probar si es que de verdad no se le pega nada...Llegó CASI impecable.Veremos si no afecta.Lo único es el tamaño, qué estufa de inducción mide eso?

This pan is awesome, very non-stick, and washes like a dream.

This frying pan is great. I don't had to turn the heat up as much with this one it cook even and I like this one it's a good frying pan

Los TFal de esta línea (ultimate) son muy buenos, pero hay que tener cuidado con ellos, es decir, no dejes que se calienten solos, no los raspes, cuida cómo los lavas, etc. ¡No se les pega nada! excelente para cocinar desde guisos hasta hotcakes. Ojo, TFAL tiene varias lineas, verás sartenes de 300 y de más de 600 pesos, la diferencia es precisamente esto, que los más caros no se pegan y duran más tiempo. En cuanto a amazon, llegó a tiempo, sin detalles y a buen precio.

I think T-fal makes the best non-stick surfaces. They will maintain their non-stick properties for a long time – IF you use them how they were meant to be used. If you use them to sautée delicate foods like veggies, fish and eggs under medium heat, the performance can't be beat. There's really no need to ever put them in a dishwasher, either, because they clean up so quickly.However, these T-fal pans really don't hold up under heavy, every-day, all-purpose use. That's not what they were made for. The coating is top notch, but the overall construction is not heavy duty. Get yourself a good, heavy aluminum, stainless steel, or cast iron skillet if you want a scorching hot sear, or want to make pan sauces, or skillet fry something.It might be worth doing a comparison between this pan (the Ultimate Hard Anodized) and the popular Professional Total Nonstick , since I've owned both, now, and some might be considering one or the other.I originally bought the Professional based on the Cooks Illustrated recommendation (as many others have), and it's a great pan. So great that my wife simply couldn't resist using it as an every-day pan, so it's lifespan was shortened. One feature of the Pro pan is that it's stainless steel clad on the bottom, so it will work with induction stove tops. It's not a thick cladding, though. While the company touts this as "anti-warp protection," I found that this construction actually makes it MORE prone to warping. First, unlike more expensive 2-ply or multi-ply pans, this one just features a fairly thin stainless steel "disk" mated to a fairly thin aluminum body. The different metals expand and contract at different rates under the same conditions. Since the aluminum is not sandwiched between stainless steel, the pan is more likely to warp. And that's what happened – just enough that it did not sit flat on our ceramic cooktop anymore. It's probably not as much of a problem with a gas burner or a coiled electric top, though, as it conducts heat fairly evenly and easily.So when it came time to replace this pan after the non-stick surface wore out, I decided to go with this hard anodized aluminum version. It was a good decision. since it is made with one, very heat-conductive metal, and is a little more heavy duty (although just as light as the Pro version since it's all aluminum). It's still straight and flat, even though it's gotten overheated a couple of times (we have one runaway burner that we have to keep an eye on, sometimes!)Not that the construction is slightly different. Both skillets have the same non-stick surface and the same oven-safe handle, but the shape is a little different. This one is a 12" skillet and the Pro is 12.5". However, I found that this measurement is based on the lip of the skillet, and the Pro version is more flared-out on the sides, where this skillet has more straight, up-and-down sides. In fact, despite a smaller diameter at the lip, I've found the Anodized skillet has slightly more cooking surface than the Pro version. While the flared sides might be a little more omelette-friendly, I haven't had any problems sliding anything out of the pan. In fact, if you are stir-frying anything, I have found that the straighter sides are better for holding things inside the skillet.All in all, I would recommend this anodized aluminum pan over the Pro version – unless you have an induction cooktop. Then the Pro version is your only choice.
