Scratch Defense 30cm Stainless Steel Saute Pan with Lid and Extreme Non Stick – Induction Pan with Helper Handle and Shatterproof Glass, All Hob Suitable

We are very pleased with these Circulon Scratch Defence 22cm and 25cm frying pans. The deep grooves and thick non-stick coating seem much better than on our older Circulon pans, which are about 6 years old. These feel more substantial and so far have performed very well. Even after heavy use, the inside of the pans still looks excellent, which is exactly what you want from a good non-stick pan. The handles are comfortable to hold, feel secure, and it is useful that they are oven safe as well. They are also easy to clean, although we only hand wash ours. The only slight downside is that the stainless steel sides and base can discolour a bit if food gets baked on, but that is really more of a cosmetic issue than a performance problem. Overall, these have been an excellent buy and feel like a definite step up from our previous pans

Excellent fry pan but too large to put in my oven

Excellent quality

Tough and well made, coating looks indestructible.

Professional pan

A great size pan and easy to clean.

Really good quality and nice to use. Only diwn side is that its heavy.

Very good quality, sturdy frying pan, but I was disappointed that it wasn’t very deep- really only accommodates a stir fry for one and I’m not a big person. Secondly it doesn’t come with a lid so I had to order two lids from Amazon, one at 25cm that was too small and one at 26cm that was too big. For such an expensive item, it should come with accessories or at least as at the option to buy one that fits!

I have great hopes for this 5-quart saute pan, and so far it's an excellent choice. The stainless steel exterior is attractive, and it works great on our induction stovetop. This pan is obviously on the pricier side. And although I tend to be a value-minded shopper, I got tired of buying saute pans that warped and whose non-stick surfaces wore out after a year and a half. The build quality of this pan suggests that won't happen this time; if it does, I'll return here and adjust my rating. One of our key requirements is that the pan has to work on induction, and this one does; the stainless steel cladding gave me confidence that the heat induction would spread across the entire bottom of the pan. (Beware some other brands that say they're induction compatible but barely meet the lowest standard in this area, including some high-end options.) The non-stick surface is super easy to clean (and we put it to the test!); if it lasts half as long as the stated "130X longer", I'll be delighted.

Cooks very evenly. Really non stick.

The best quality coating I've ever had

Excellent pan, worth the money. So far the non stick ability is working well.

This pan is very well worth the cost. Most "non stick" pans break down & start going bad with only a small scratch, this does not. Easy-to-use and easy to clean. A must buy for excellent results.
