Scanpan Classic 10-1/4-Inch Fry Pan

Bargain Scanpan Classic 10-1/4-Inch Fry Pan
==================================================================

Luxurious Danish design, traditional, solid craftsmanship and the latest advances in technology combine to make Scanpan IQ the new cookware generation. Scanpan IQ is hand-crafted, squeeze-cast in , recycled aluminum. IQ Cookware is suitable for induction and all other cook tops. The optimum thickness of the pan base prevents warping and keeps the pan base perfectly flat, especially important when used with glass top or ceramic ranges. The pan thickness and unique ceramic-titanium surface allo...

  • Green Tek ceramic-titanium nonstick finish is safe for metal utensils
  • High-density phenolic resin handle securely attached without rivets
  • Dishwasher-safe, though washing by hand recommended
  • Oven-safe to 500 degrees F; covered by full lifetime warranty

This All Pans give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Scanpan Warranty is a Joke!!
I have this pan - worked great for about 1.5 years but then began to "bubble" on the flat surface. Obviously this is a manufacturing issue & Scanpan claims to have a lifetime warranty on manufacturer defects. I sent it off to the factory & they refuse the claim due to lack of cleaning...
I work in a freaking research & development department for cookware. I know how to clean a fry pan. Their "claim" is a small area on the lip of the pan - FAR AWAY from the main bubbling issue - & an area I didn't scrub completely because once I noticed the bubbling, the pan is useless to me.
This is a complete joke & their warranty "policy" is apparently: unless if falls out of the manufacturer's box in 10 pieces all while catching it on camera with a factory representative on hand, we will not cover.
Roll the dice if you choose. This pan is so expensive, for them not to treat warranty claims with the respect they deserve is ridiculous.

2. Piece of junk, they all stick after a while.
I've owned several Scanpan products. This fry pan, an 8-inch fry pan and a sauce pan. All stick after being used for a while. After I had problems with the first one I talked to the store I bought it from and to Scanpan. They said to use lower heat and don't use cooking sprays. I followed those instructions with the next pan I bought and still had problems. I also tried the "restore" method mentioned in the manual using the steel wool that was included with the pan without any success.

When they were new they were great, but once they started sticking, they were worse than a regular pan without a non-stick coating. Plus the sellers won't back them up. I tried to return mine under their "Lifetime" warranty, none of the stores selling them would take them back without talking to the distributor first. The distributor never returned my phone calls. Also a major consumer testing magazine that originally gave these a high rating retracted that rating after getting bad feedback...

Need more appointment... ?

I just got one. I tried cooking an egg with no oil in it on medium heat. It stuck a little, but I could clean it off with one wipe of a paper towel. I can't do this with any other pan I own. With just a slight amount of butter (a pat cut 1/16th inch thick), I repeated the test and was able to flip the egg with ease and there was NO stcking at all. It cleaned off with just dabbing a paper towel along the surface. The outside of the pan also has non stick sides, so if you get some slop on the sides on the outside of the pan, it wipes off as well. The heat distribution was superb as evidenced by the changing pattern from clear to white of the egg white and the uniformity of browning of the egg surface. I intend to use this pan for omlettes and crepes. It exceeds any other fry / saute pan I've used.

You can use metal utensils on this pan: amazing. The handle is suppossed to be good to 500 deg F. I finally found a non stick pan...
