 Excellent pan! Mar 07, 2011
By Alex Durham
I bought this pan seeking a replacement for our aging traditional non-stick pan. I didn't know much about the company, but the reviews seemed solid. I will add to the solid reviews. This pan is well constructed and works as advertised. It has a good heft, heats evenly, and holds its temperature well. The textured bottom does not impede the non-stick properties. I can't say I notice a marked improvement over a smooth bottomed PTFE-free pan, but it doesn't hurt.
A note to those who find the non-stick properties disappearing in your pans. This happened with a previous PTFE-free pan I had used. If you look carefully and run your fingers (particularly around the bottom circumference) you will notice a sticky film. This seems to be a build up from excess oil not cleaned off well. By this point it will be extremely sticky and hard to clean off. With some serious elbow grease, I was able to clean this off. The pan is as good as new. I haven't had the build up occur with this pan yet, but I recommend cleaning thoroughly after each use to avoid the sticky build up.

 Amazing Non-Stick Performance Initially Jul 26, 2011
By Catman
Other reviews would suggest that the non-stick properties don't last but at first it's amazing. Even water doesn't want to wet the surface. We fried turkey sausage and clean-up with a sponge and soapy water hardly seemed necessary. It's nicely made and heavy with some classy looking machine work on the bottom. My only complaint is the deceptive advertising and packaging. The Amazon description says, "From Germany" and the box it comes in says "From Germany" no less than 7 times. So it's German made, right? WRONG! Small print on the bottom of the box says "Made in China." "From Germany" apparently applies to the coating material only. Still, it's very well made, just as good or better than if it were truly a German product and likely at half the cost. How long will the non-stick properties last? Time will tell.

Nice pan but be aware of dimensions Aug 25, 2011
By mel
I've used this pan for a few weeks now and really like it. The color looks fresh and nice if I take the pan directly to the table. It's also cooked food evenly and is super easy to clean with no scrubbing needed. (I've only tried hand washing it). I wish that it were 12" on both the bottom and top, though, like my last pan was. This pan is 12" across at the top but 10" across at the bottom, which allows me to only cook 2 grilled cheese sandwiches instead of 3 at one time. But other than the size issue, I am very happy with the pan.

 Great pan - 'til the coating starts coming off... May 18, 2011
By JamSession
This is probably the slickest non-stick pan I've ever used. Unfortunately, the surface died a very quick death. I used this pan maybe 6 or 7 times before the non-stick surface started coming off. I was very careful with this pan - gently using plastic cooking utensils, allowing it to cool before rinsing, cleaning gently with a soapy wash cloth, etc. And how was I rewarded for my caring ways?
Yeah.... don't buy this pan.

Very pleased! Jul 09, 2011
By Sunsetcreek
I have now bought and used all three sizes of the Green Earth pans - the 8 inch, 10 inch and the largest 12 inch - and am happy with all three. I first bought the 10 inch pan to replace a non-stick pan that I had burnt. Fearful that I had damaged the surface permanently and exposed harmful chemicals, I shopped around for one that was PTFE and PFOA free and settled on the Green Earth pan. My 10-incher has a very smooth surface and feels almost slippery to the touch. I only use a little bit of oil and everything, eggs included, have slipped off the pan beautifully. The 8 inch and 12 inch ones have a textured surface (there are tiny hexagon shapes on the surface that protrude very slightly) but work just as well. Most of all, I have peace of mind knowing that I am using pans that are non-toxic and safe. I use them nearly everyday and so far, I am very satisfied. I am hoping the pans last a long time and I don't burn them by accident!
