Getting used to it

Originally posted on circulon.uk.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a first timer to this type of pan. And I must say that that it crisps a bacon brilliantly. However, for a more technical pricey pan it’s disappointing generally. It’s very heavy and there is no tiny support handle 180 Degrees to the mail handle. Also it has that slightly raised section in the middle so oils etc run down to the sides. I was expecting more finesse.

Sorry but this is without doubt the worst non stick pan I’ve ever had the misfortune to use. No matter what kind of oil is used everything sticks like glue. Very pretty but a waste of money.

I have now used this pan a few times so am getting a good idea of how it performs. In short, it is exactly what I wanted! The steel browns fried food well, with the non stick grooves providing an almost totally non stick experience. I have a fully non stick pan which I reserve for eggs, and this will look after the rest of my pan frying. Highly recommend for this use case.

Hello Wotan. I'm sorry to hear that your recent experience with our frying pan has been disappointing, especially after 20 years of satisfaction with our products. It's clear that this pan is not living up to the high standards you've come to expect from Circulon, and I understand how frustrating that must be. Given your long history with our brand, it's concerning that this particular pan is not performing as well as your previous purchases. There could be several reasons for this issue, and I'd like to help you troubleshoot the problem. Will be sending you an email to further assist you with your concern.

I couldn't be more dissapointed, everything sticks to this pan which then makes it difficult to clean. Having paid quite a lot for this brand it is now languishing in the back of the cupboard so I have to say it was a waste of money.

Hello Andy, we are sorry to hear that you have been dissatisfied with your recent purchase. You have purchased a hybrid pan that combines the best of both worlds — stainless steel for bolder results and maximum durability and non-stick for ultimate convenience.  The unique design of raised steel rings protects the non-stick while allowing for perfect searing and caramelisation of foods, which you cannot do in a traditional non-stick pan. To get best results, season before first use by pre-heating the pan to a medium-high heat on your hob. Pour in a tablespoon of oil and swirl to cover the whole cooking surface rings. Continue to heat for 30-60 seconds, then just as the oil starts to smoke switch off and then leave to cool.   Once the pan is cooled, wipe away excess oil with a paper towel, the pan is ready to use. When ready to cook, heat the pan on a medium-high heat. Add your cooking oil, and swirl to make sure all cooking surfaces are covered. Then reduce the heat and add your food!  Do not move/touch the food, let the Steelshield magic do its work.  Steelshield technology means you need less heat to cook your food. Low to medium heat is sufficient.  Once the moisture and flavours are sealed in, your food will release itself. You may see some browned bits left behind on the rings- this is fond. (Basically, awesome bits of flavour you created.) You don't want to lose that- just add some liquid (stock, butter, wine) and deglaze your pan. Scrape up those delicious bits to make a delicious sauce while cleaning your pan at the same time. To clean any stubborn areas, you are safe to use a metal scourer on the top of the rings only, this will bring off any awkward marks.  You can also wipe them clean with some oil so it’s ready for the next use. A well-seasoned Steelshield pan will provide the cooking experience of stainless steel, non-stick and cast iron in a single pan and will improve with use. If you follow the above, you will start to enjoy your cookware with confidence. Thank you for taking the time to write a review - Consumer care team

Really disappinted

Originally posted on circulon.uk.com

A disappointment. Definitely not non stick, although the headline title does say "Non stick" Used it today for scrambled eggs and left with a thick coating of egg on the base. I've not washed it yet and hope it will clean up with no problem. No instructions to say I must use oil or butter.

Hello Rayjack. I'm sorry to hear about your disappointment with the performance of the non-stick feature on your pan, especially when cooking scrambled eggs. Non-stick cookware should indeed provide easy release and cleanup, and it's concerning that you encountered issues with food sticking. While non-stick coatings typically require less oil or butter for cooking, adding a small amount can further help prevent sticking, especially when cooking eggs. Additionally, using low to medium heat can help ensure even cooking without excessive sticking. As for cleaning the pan, soaking it in warm, soapy water for a short time before washing may help loosen any stuck-on food residue. To further assist you with your claim, one of our advisors will send you an email. Thanks
