Brands: Blue Diamond, Granitestone, Tramontina, Sensarte, Carote, OXO, Cuisinart, GreenPan, Ninja, Anolon, Caraway, Made In (carbon steel), Imarku and HexClad. Pans compared for non-stick performance frying eggs, pancakes, and even a Cheesemallow. Non-stick pans also compared for thermal efficiency heating up water, temperature variation, and scratch resistance.
I bought all of the frying pans to ensure an unbiased and fair review. So, thank you for supporting the channel through Patreon!

      @hueanao@hueanao3 ай бұрын
    • Fridges are such a disaster to test: They're take up a lot of space, are expensive, are hard to transport, and have high enough peak draw to be annoying to test concurrently. I'd definitely love to see them testing, but I can totally understand if that's a bit too much of an ask. I'd be willing to forgive PF for asking a store (not a manufacturer, obviously) for help to make this happen (i.e., "Thank you to [brand] for lending me these fridges. They're not paying for this video and have no editorial control"). However, I suspect that even such a faux sponsorship wouldn't be enough to make this practical.

    • piggybacking on this comment: I feel like the carbon steel pan didn't received a proper representation here. The BIG difference between all those pans and a carbon pan ,is that this pan is going to just get better AND is literally indestructible. I have the "de buyer mineral b" now, pretty much exactly 11 years. Its almost daily in use, and the coating is better than ever. I use it for smash burgers, and i almost felt like, its too non stick for the burgers to stick to the pan proper, they release almost by themself. I can fry eggs easily in this pan, and the heat transfer is superb.

    • Without doing it 100-200 times (like America's Test Kitchen does with their tests - 50 times making eggs) its unfortunately pretty worthless. Being non-stick out of the box is one thing (and the base function), being non-stick 2 years down the road is the important thing. Also, poor Carbon Steel pan, completely wrongly used and thus instead of basically non-stick a sticky mess.

    • @@jcstrabo You're right that exhaustive long term testing would be ideal, but realistically most people won't use the pans for that long, or they'll be scratched to hell by then. Besides, it's good to know if any brands have crap non-stick properties to begin with, since it's very unlikely it'll end up winning over time. Given the low price of some of these pans, it makes more sense to simply buy one a year rather than buy one for 3-4x the cost. The carbon steel pan was tested just fine. It illustrates that spending more money on one doesn't give you any extra convenience if all you want to do is slap an egg into a pan without mucking about, and with the minimum prep and clean up effort.

  • The problem with a lot of these pans is that the non-stick coating wears out extremely quickly. The real test for these pans is not if it can be non-stick out of the box, but how long the non-stick coating lasts.

    @oneiros1401@oneiros14013 ай бұрын
    • You have to take care of nonstick pans and follow their instructions or they’ll wear out much sooner then they should. While all nonstick fails at some point I stay away from pricey ceramic coated ones. It’s a sacrificial coating that loses some of its nonstick properties every use. You usually always get what you pay for with nonstick. If you buy $10-$15 pans you’re lucky to get 6 months lol. If you get some quality ones they can last a few years.

    • Agreed. While these kinds of tests are great, they only test a snapshot of how something performs when brand new. For a lot of items, they all perform pretty good out of the box, the real test is how they perform over time. There is a huge variability in the longevity of non-stick pan surfaces. I would have preferred to have the longevity tested over the performance when brand new.

You can even use modern soap on occasion after the finish is aged up because that soap doesn't have lye in it. Weight might be the only issue. But if that's the Case Carbon Steel is much lighter.

  • This was AWESOME - what a great comparison of the abilities of these pans. Just goes to show, there are different pans for different needs. The nice thick heavy ones heat up slowly, so not great for boiling water in a hurry, and the non-nonstick thin pan that heats up fast would be great for a stir fry or sauteeing with a good amount of oil. I appreciate your hard work on this video content! Looks like I already follow you so I'm already a fan.

    • There is an issue with the carbon steel skillet though. Carbon steel skillets usage is very different from coated non-stick pans: the temperature of the stove must be lower, and they usually need a little bit of fat. You will never get a good result with no or low fat food like he did, food will tend to burn because the temperature is much higher.

If you could do a part II non-stick pan test and test All-Clad, Calphalon, Misen, StoneDine/StoneLine, Gotham Steel, etc. That would be great. I did read somewhere that a woman had her All-Clad non-stick pan for 8 years and wanted to warranty it because the non-stick coating was starting to come off after 8 years of use. All-Clad stated that the non-stick coating was a wear item and wouldn't warranty it. Also, a separate test just on stainless steel pans including All-Clad 3-ply and 5 ply stainless steel pans, Cuisinart, Ninja, etc. And if you could get your hands on a few older well-seasoned cast iron skillets - Griswold, Wagner, etc. to compare to a modern Lodge cast iron skillet would all be great tests.

    • Teflon has many problems, none of which are discussed in the video: health problems, and environmental problems. PFOA is thought to be cancer inducing, and PTFE/PFOA are nearly impossible to eliminate, meaning it goes in our environment and pollutes it forever. So much so in fact that traces of it have been found to be in human blood. Not forgetting that these aluminum pans are barely recyclable if at all. And all will fail within a few years. Newer ceramic coatings are non toxic, but otherwise present the same issues as the Teflon pans: longevity, and I believe, environmental issues. That's why carbon steel pans are superior in many ways and getting traction: they don't fail, they aren't toxic and their non-stick properties build up with usage. Sure, they will never be as non-stick as Teflon (nothing is), but they last forever, and they sear meat much better than Teflon or ceramic coated pans.

Hot-spotting is one of the biggest issues I've had with skillets, and it can absolutely ruin an otherwise great dish. I forwarded this video to my mother, and she asked me to include some feedback: Her biggest concern with a non-stick pan is longevity. She says typically with about 3-4 months of daily use, every non-stick pan she's used has had the coating start to flake off, and she's convinced it's a byproduct of hot-cold cycles rather than hardness, and that regular dishwasher cleaning versus hand-washing can have an effect, too, even on so-called "dishwasher safe" pans. She also says thank you for the video, and she'll be trying some new brands soon!

    • If you or your mother don't mind handling a 2kg pan, you should look out for non-stick coated cast iron pans. Never had such good results before. Granted, they take a lot of time to heat up but keep it for very long. Very good for steaks which need a little time to rest after searing. I switched to cookware by a local manufacturer who's creating a blend of Teflon and titanium oxide. They provide 10 years of warranty on the coating. I will see if they stand by their promises ;) You don't even need to scrub those pans. Everything can be washed away even if it sticks at first. I'm very confident this is not the only manufacturer which provides this kind of coating. By the way the trick on the hexclad is that the coating is sunken in and is "protected" by the bare metal dimples. Working with metal objects within that pan isn't an issue but the trade-off is that a certain amount of surface is not covered by non-stick coating, hence the result with the cheese becoming stuck. These edges around the dimples will also lead to rapid delamination, i figure. Regarding longevity in general: Don't ever put these non-stick pans in a dishwasher. Never use glass fiber reinforced utensil. You can't see it but the fibers will act as a kind of sanding paper. Use silicone tipped stuff instead. This will also minimize the risk of scratching the coating with a sharp edge that might have formed over time. Even wood will scratch after some use. Also don't ever put cold water in them when they're hot, try to use warm water instead. Besides that a big offender here is also chunky salt or brown sugar. If you season and those particles scratch across the surface they will damage the coating inevitably. If properly handled, the coating should last around 2 years which is "perfectly normal".

  • I know testing longevity would be a daunting task but I can speak to several of these brands. I've been buying these things for over 10 years dating back to the red copper. It's always difficult to receive clarity in reviews on Amazon as different people may not cook often, some may not follow instructions such as using improper utensils, cleaning improperly, placing a hot pan into dishwater, etc. My wife cooks daily and the meals vary widely. Additionally, we too had to learn through trial and error about proper care for nonstick pans. With that being said, here is our experience. The red copper was absolutely awful, warped, stuck, discolored, flaked within 6 months of daily use. We then tried the Granite stone and had similar results. About seven years ago, I bought her a tramontina pot which she raved about so I did some digging and found they made frying pans. She loved them and they would hold up for about a year and then it became a tradition to just buy a set every year. After several years of doing this, I came across an ad about OXO and after research saw they were highly rated. So, that Christmas we decided to try the OXO instead and she loved the heft of the pan and even spread of heat. Sure enough, within a year, it was failing and it was back to the drawing board which happened to be this past Christmas. So, I dove in to watching videos, reading reviews and the Made-in brand was supposed to be top of the line. Unlike the carbon model you tested, they do make a highly rated nonstick frying pan for $150. Being tired of buying pans annually, I decided if $150 is what it took to get a good nonstick frying pan that would last then I would happily do so. Luckily I bought it before Christmas which gave us an extra month to return. Initially, she was thrilled but just prior to 2 months, it started sticking which fortunately allowed us to return prior to the return window closing. I looked at reviews for the hexclad and reviews after review showed the coating chipping away and in people's food. I was getting ready to purchase her another set of OXO or Tramontina to get us through another year but she came home with a $20 nonstick pan from Kohl's or Target and said at this point, if we are going to buy annually then we might as well get $20 pans and swap them as need be. It has been holding up well. To reiterate, if you cook daily and follow manufacturer instructions, use silicone utensils, let the pan cool prior to plunging into or under water as we did then the best you might get is 6 months to a year whether you spend $50 or $150. On the other hand, her pampered chef and cast iron pots and pans are amazing, just not nonstick. For some of you who do not cook often, the OXO and Tramontina might last you several years if taken care of properly. Hopefully, someone does invent that perfect nonstick frying pan but we haven't found one yet.

    • Nonstick pans will always have a relatively short lifespan, no matter how well they are made. Its an engineering problem that can't really be solved with today's technology. Unless a manufacturer starts a service of stripping the old coating off your pan and adding a new one to it (like resoleing a shoe), these nonstick pans will always end up in the landfill after a few years. Thats why many people have moved away from them over the years and to longer lasting materials like cast iron as you mentioned. One material you could try would be enameled cast iron pans. Staub and le creuset are popular brands that make quite a few different models. While they are not perfectly nonstick they are easier to clean than tradition cast iron and require less oil to cook with to prevent food sticking.

    • I basically came to the same conclusion, the longest I managed to get a pan to last was 2 years. I finally dropped burning money on nonstick pans and moved to cast iron and butter/tallow/coconut oil for cooking lubricant. It takes some trial and error and learning, but I can cook eggs without a mess now. It's important to let the pan pre-heat. My main pan is a square one which suffers big time from hot spotting on round heating elements, so I also use a square copper heat spreader. One thing that's important for cast iron is to use a metal spatula (I use a Mercer Culinary Millennia Heavy Duty Turner that I rounded off the corners of) and to happily scrape the pan without fear, the opposite of what you normally would do. This knocks down bumps over time and removed buildup that causes sticking. Combined with occasional proper seasoning (I use Crisbee Cream) results in a flatter surface that will stick less. I had initially continued to use my wood spatula that I used with nonstick pans, and it seems that likely wasted some time getting my pan to where it should be. Note for those ignorant of cast iron/carbon steel seasoning: seasoning is NOT crusty filth and is NOT a source of flavor. It is polyunsaturated fats undergoing accelerated oxidation from heat (and iron particles) and crosslinking to form a tough polymer on the surface of the pan. Seasoning cast iron is basically like a slower version of taking red hot iron, and dunking it in oil (which comes back out with a black protective polymer coating). In fact, doing exactly this is what's done to "pre-season" many pans you buy in the store. You can also absolutely use regular dish soap and let the pans soak if you need (lye based soaps are what can damage the seasoning). You just clean it off, heat it up, apply oil, and let it cool back down. No issues. Personally I only typically clean the pan prior to cooking, since all that's in there after cooking is carbon and fat, which is MUCH easier to just scrape off when you just leave it for the next day when the pan is cool. I currently only touch up the seasoning every 2-3 weeks, which consists of soaking or wiping it with a wet paper towel, applying little bit of crisbee cream, heat it up to barely start smoking for a few minutes and letting it cool. I'm fine with nonstick for pots though, as those are filled with liquid which is much less harsh than what pans are used for.

    • I also came to the same conclusion for the non-stick pans. I have a nice stainless set for all of my pots and pans and a great set (2 sizes) of cast iron pans. I have two non-stick pans for eggs and pancakes etc, and those are the cheap, or inexpensive, pans you can buy at Sam's in their Restaurant Supply area. I think the egg pan is $12 and the 10" is like $18 and I get an easy year out of them with proper care. I cook eggs almost daily and use the 10" a few times a month for other items. Cheap to replace and last a while. They're thick and somewhat heavy aluminum pans with silicone handles that are also oven safe. Not a bad set for the price. The other pots and pans don't need non-stick duty so I get a lot of use out of them. No my sets don't match, but I don't care and I now have pans I can keep a while.

If you are multi-tasking in one pan foods can "drift" into each other if you are not paying attention. Best non-stick cookware I have used. After everything I cook, the pan could be wiped out with a paper towel like I never cooked at all. As for durability. I still primarily use wood or plastic utensils. On the occasions I had to use metal, I found no damage or loss of performance to the non-stick.

  • I love this video, nonstick pans can vary in so much quality it's crazy. I would love to see you also do some tests with repeated uses of the nonstick pans, especially when they get up to the maximum heat that the pans are supposed to be able to handle. The reason for this is that I had one particular type of nonstick pan that would absolutely destroy itself if I heated it up past like medium on my electric burner. The reason for this is that supposedly the metal expands and contracts at a different rate than the nonstick coating does - so it delaminates itself. After the first time this happened, I just told myself that I wouldn't use the pan on any sort of high heat, I would just be very careful. Which is exactly what I did, but the pan still ended up delaminating and the nonstick coating was chipping off after just a few months of daily use. Repeated heat/cool cycles seemed to delaminate just as much as a single "very hot" heat/cool cycle. I ended up changing to a different brand, which ended up scoring pretty well in your tests here. I haven't had the same issue with that pan, but I could see some of these potentially having that issue while still passing your tests. Just some food for thought. Thanks for your vids.

I also would have liked to see a more premium pan, like Scanpan get tested. I've used Scanpan for years and like them, but they are pricey and don't last forever as the non-stick eventually starts to fail due to... who knows? Carbonization, or the coating itself changing it's makeup due to high heat? Regardless, having a cheaper option like that Granitestone would be great, so long as it's comparable quality and lasts longer than a couple of years.

The key take away from this fabulous testing is that ALL coated non-stick pans WILL degrade and slowly leach their coatings into your food. While I don't think the testing mentality was wrong I don't think the Made In pans should be tested the same, they should be tested and treated like Cast Iron. This even includes the heat up, I always let them heat on a lower setting for 5+ minutes before putting food in to deal with the center heating faster. Their advantage to cast iron is faster heat up times but at the expense of them loosing heat easier.
