" ... The higher sides make it easy to cook cream sauces. ... I also found that food cooks evenly. ... "
" ... These pans do not disappoint! ... "
" ... TECHEF products seem to have excellent heat spreading (no hot spots) and great balance (even the small skillet won't tip over when it's empty). ... That means it doesn't go into the oven and you don't leave an empty or mostly empty skillet on the burner. ... "
" ... Needed a good pan for frying eggs so that the eggs wouldn't stick. ... "
" ... Cooks evenly and with no or little oil. ... "
" ... I have the Whirlpool GoldSeries induction cooktop (with stove) for reference. ... "
" ... Great frying pan. ... "
" ... I've had a number of 8-inch frying pans over the years and so far I'm quite happy with this one. ... "

" ... I have been using my other TECHEF skillets daily and they look like new and still clean up easy (even after caramelizing onions). ... Avoid metal utensils (even if they say it's "safe" to use them) and let them cool before cleaning (Teflon is slightly softer when hot and thus, more vulnerable to scratches when hot. ... Never use abrasive pads when cleaning (common nylon cleaning pads are okay though). ... "

" ... The 8" pan is sturdy with a thick base. ... It doesn't feel flimsy or low quality like many of the other pans in the same price range. ... "
" ... The build quality is solid, handle is comfortable, and the heat distribution seems good. ... The nonstick coating works great, however it looks like the coating wasn't applied completely uniformly, and has scratched a little bit even though I use plastic utensils exclusively. ... "
" ... EXCELLENT products and some of the few products that offer Platinum Series Teflon (which is the best and still safe). ... Again, these skillets are Teflon and although it's the Platinum Series Teflon, it's still Teflon. ... "
" ... Still gets 4 stars overall because it's well constructed and after several weeks of near daily use it still looks new. ... "
" ... Heavy duty pan with great non stick coating. ... "
" ... they seem like they'll hold up for years with silicone and wood utensils. ... "
" ... Have had an 8" and a 12" frying pan for over a year, and they show no signs of wear or warping after heavy use on both induction and gas cooktops. ... "
" ... - To accommodate induction stove tops, the pan has a magnetic piece of metal on the bottom. ... "
