T-Fal E9189874 Ultimate Hard Anodized Durable Nonstick Thermo-Spot Heat Indicator Dishwasher Safe PFOA Free Oven Safe Deep Saute Pan / Fry Pan with GL

I purchased the T-fal pots and pans set for my husband for Christmas who loves to cook, so it only made sense to purchase this large 12” sauté pan. He loved the entire set. This sauté pan is perfect for when we prepare larger dinners with my Sister and brother in law come over. My husband loves it! He thinks it’s perfect and as I said in my last review with this movie catch phrase “All is right in our World”

This top-notch nonstick pan is a must-have for frying eggs and pancakes, and hundreds of other uses. It heats evenly, and food slides right off. I hand wash this pan with a soft sponge (not a scrubber) to protect the nonstick coating. A dishwasher is definitely not needed. Check the measurements carefully before you order. The pan is so large that it wouldn’t fit sitting flat in my overhead kitchen cabinets, so I’m storing it in a wide drawer near the stove.

I use this pan almost every day! The cover allows me to see what I am cooking, and it keeps everything moist and warm when I'm finished cooking. The non-stick service makes clean up a breeze. I am very careful only to use soft scrub sponges on it. Although it says it's dishwasher safe, I am very careful and always wash it by hand. since it's non-stick it cleans extremely easily. I cook pancakes, grilled cheese sandwiches. chicken breasts, sausages, sautéed escarole, almost everything in this pan!

This is a great pan. It's not as deep as i thought it was, but that is my fault. i didn't read the dimensions, but overall, it is great. It is light enough so that i can lift it without feeling like I'm going to drop it and heavy enough that it isn't going to burn if the heat is to high.

Meets or exceeds all of my expectations.

I have never claimed to be a cook, let alone a chef. However, I do like making my own scrambled eggs, special recipes of chili, and sloppy Joe's.My old electric frying pan was barely able to execute the simplest task, and it was obvious why. It was uneven heat transfer which was easy to spot due to the terrible "ring of fire," as I termed it. The heating element was a visible ring which was plainly displayed, especially when cooking something thin. So, I began my typical searching and researching on the Internet. So many choices! Wal-Mart, as always, had a huge array of cookware, both in single pieces and in sets.Yes, ladies, I am one guy who actually reads ALL of the directions in anything I buy. So, I seasoned this excellent pan and plan to repeat the simple ... MoreI have never claimed to be a cook, let alone a chef.

So, I seasoned this excellent pan and plan to repeat the simple procedure every 10th time I use it. I especially like the glass lid with the hole for steam to escape. I know that this heavy Deep Sauté Pan can accommodate metal utensils, and washing in my dishwasher. Nevertheless, I prefer washing and drying it by hand and using some excellent high-heat utensils I bought for it.Just a few hours ago, I made some simply superb grilled cheese sandwiches that were good enough to appear in a magazine. Yeah, for a stumbling non-cook, I am allowed to brag a bit.Some caveats: I have never found it necessary to use excessively high heat with this pan. It warms quickly and cooks beautifully with no more than medium or less heat. Also, this pan is slippery on the outside, too. Be careful and hold onto it when you are using it! Not a bad thing, since it makes cleaning it a 2 or 3 minute job.I am now considering replacing the Revere Ware pots and pans, used by my late mother, with all T-Fal cookware. Using this pan gives me the same satisfaction using any Snap-On tool does when I work on a car: heavy, sturdy, and built to last a lifetime!As I have said before, "Buying just something that is Ok is a guarantee of eventual disappointment. Spending a little more is an investment in and for the future!Nicely done, T-Fal!

The first thing I cooked when I got this pan, was eggs. I wanted to see how good this pan was. I only added a little olive oil and my eggs did not stick to this pan. They slide right out, and the pan required slight washing. This pan has the thermo-spot indicator that shows when it's heated up letting you know when it's ready to start cooking. It also comes with a lid, which is what I like too. The non-stick coating is also safe with no PFOA, no lead, and no cadmium.

[Rewarded Review] Love this skillet!

I received this skillet about a month ago and have used it for almost every meal. It is a very nice quality and is one of my favorites! I just wish I had more in different sizes! I loved have how none of my food has stuck to the skillet. It is also very easy to clean! I also love that my husband has not scratched it all up when he cooks since he will use metal spoons while cooking! I will definitely be looking to buy more of this brand and have already recommended this to my family and friends!

[Rewarded Review] Love to Cook? You need this pan!

The T-Fal Ultimate Hard Anodized Nonstick skillet is a wonderful addition to my kitchen pans. The size is perfect for a family of 2. It has a hard safe non stick coating which makes cleanup easy. The unique color changing indicator helps to know when the pan is ready to use. I don't think I've seen this technology before. It's wonderful. No more guessing when to add food. I plan to add other pieces to my cooking collection.

[Rewarded Review] One of The Best!

Wow!! This pan is amazing. Lets start by talking about the non stick, I am the master at ruining nice pans by overcooking. Not this pan, I use this pan for everything and have yet to scorch it. (don't laugh, lol) The heat sensor in the middle of the pan helps me greatly!! Next would be the lid, absolutely perfect, I love that if you leave the lid on the pan while cooking and you go to grab it, you do not burn your hand because of the silicone handle covers. I absolutely love the handles, you do not feel any heat. Over all I would say this pan is right up there with perfection, They really thought it through and gave me the ultimate cookware. I am definitely a loyal fan now. The T Fal Ultimate really is the Ultimate pan.

[Rewarded Review] Wow

I am in love with this new pan. I am impressed how strong it is. Amazed how non stick it is. First time using it I cooked an egg, I did use the spray stuff. Next time tried it without. OMG, how far technology has come. Nothing stuck, and came out easily with a silicone flipper. Clean up is just like those infomercials, just use a paper towel. I did wash it but probably could have skipped it. I would definitely recommend this new T-Fal pan!!-
