Anolon Advanced Hard Anodized Nonstick Frying Pan - 81958

mascok: The pan loves to warp even if using below recommended heat settings.

cb_colo: I really like the shape of this pan because it can help to reduce splatter if sauteing or cooking with oil.

It's also large and can fit a lot of ingredients for either a one-pot meal or if making a meal for a big group.

We've had this for a few months now and cleaning is going well and the coating has held up to use - but we are very careful to use non-scratching utensils.

SuperMomHikerGirl: We gently set this pan on our glass top stove while reading the instructions. When we lifted the pan up, there were several noticeable scratches on the burner. We've never had a single scratch on this stovetop, but we only used stainless steel smooth bottom pans before. We plan to return this pan because the glass top stove is what we have and despite reading the description we didn't see warnings about it scratching glass top stoves. If just gently setting it down leaves several scratches, I can't even imagine what it would look like after a month of daily use, probably twice a day. We rent and have no intention of replacing the stove top when we leave. The other thing was that it wasn't clear that the bottom of the pan was that much smaller than the circumference of the edge of the pan. While we see potential uses for that kind of pan, that's not what we thought we were buying. We're starting from scratch with new pans, intending to give away the cheaper pans we started out with, and we prioritized a skillet that had a larger bottom. So, we thought we were getting the ideal pan to start with but that's not the case. After reading more reviews, we realize that this is not the...

Wade: I have purchased a number of the Anolon pans, and are usually great. Cooks well and is non-stick as advertised. Unfortunately within 3 or 4 uses it developed a warp to it. A year later it is gone so bad that it is almost a full inch off from center to edge. Couple more uses and it should make for a great Wok, but not the frying pan I was hoping for. Would recommend looking elsewhere for the 14" pan.

Will: Beautiful finish but got delivered with a bend in it. Wobbly when cooking, very annoying. For the price I was expecting a lot more

MAMA: The pan warped after about 4 or 5 uses. The nonstick has been good.

Heather S.: Probably the biggest problem I had when trying to figure out what size pan I needed was trying to make sense of the measurements the manufacturers give. 10"? 12"? 14"? What does that mean? Did they measure across the actual SURFACE of the pan or across the top from edge to edge? I was really confused. So I'm going to tell you about THIS pan, and what I found.

The actual cooking surface of this pan (the bottom of it) measures 12" across. It measures 14" from edge to edge, across the top. The top of the pan is wider than the base, so that's where the 14" measurement comes from. I double or triple every recipe I make (2 boxes of hamburger helper, 2 boxes of rice-a-roni) and this pan EASILY accommodates these amounts. For a pan of this size, I found it very manageable. Some pans feel like lead weights and are a pain to use because they're so heavy. This one isn't and I really like that.

Even better than that is the clean up. This pan is an absolute DREAM! Baked on, crusted on messes come right off with a wet cloth. Some things I can wipe off with a paper towel! I've used this pan hundreds of times and I can't imagine EVER having to soak this thing EVER! I seriously...

Dana Cousins: We received our skillet a couple of weeks ago, and we are thrilled with it! We've used it several times already, and like the way it fits perfectly on the large burners on the stove. The skillet heats evenly, and quickly, and the high sides avoid alot of food mishaps, like oil sloshing over the sides, and food falling out when you stir it. The rubber coated handles are a lifesaver as well, since you don't have to scramble for potholders when you have to move it from one location to another. The small handle on the opposite side of the pan makes lifting a breeze.The nonstick coating allows for quick and easy cleanup as well.
Just make sure you have a spot large enough to stow this skillet in. It is BIG!

UPDATE... 5 Months, We have used this skillet for just about everything and I highly recommend this Anolon Advanced Nonstick Hard-Anodized Aluminum Cookware to everyone looking for great, heavy duty, long lasting cookware for the following reasons...

I wanting a big skillet, I use it 2-3 times a week for just about everything you can think of cooking and even on my grill. Now I did things to this skillet for a reason before I was going to buy a new set, things you...
