Amazon.com Product Description
Get serious about your cooking and your green credentials with this 10-piece set of hard anodized cookware from Earth Pan by Farberware, which features a unique nonstick surface. The set includes a 1-1/2-quart saucepan with lid, 2-quart saucepan with lid, 8-inch skillet, 10-inch skillet, 3-quart saute pan with lid, and 8-quart stockpot with lid. Harder than stainless steel, the cookware's hard anodized exterior is dense, nonporous, and highly wear-resistant for extra durability and professional performance as well as quick and even heat distribution to help reduce hot spots. They also feature dual-riveted, stay-cool stainless steel handles.
The foundation of all Earth Pan cookware is the unique SandFlow nonstick coating that originates from sand--used to manufacture kitchenware like glass and silicone bakeware. Just like the nonstick pans you've used over the years, Earth Pan cookware is formulated to provide excellent food release without use of cooking oils, and the pans are easy to clean. Based on industry lab tests, SandFlow nonstick surfaces are three times more durable than ceramic-based surfaces and they require 33 percent less energy to cure than traditional nonstick pans.
The SandFlow coating does not contain PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene, also known as the brand name Teflon) or PFOA (a key processing agent in making nonstick and stain-resistant materials, including Teflon)--both of which have raised health concerns in recent years. Laboratory animals exposed to high doses of PFOA suffered cancer, low birth weight and a suppressed immune system, though PTFE-manufactured nonstick cookware is considered an insignificant exposure source of PFOA.
These pans are oven safe to 600 degrees F, and they work on all cooking surfaces, except for induction cookers. They are dishwasher safe, though handwashing is recommended to ensure longevity. Metal utensils and abrasive cleaners or brushes should be avoided. Packaging material for Earth Pan by Farberware is made from at least 50 percent recycled fiber with all materials being 100 percent recyclable.

Nothing is Perfect,

This review is from: Earth Pan Hard Anodized Nonstick 10-Piece Cookware Set (Kitchen)
My wife and I have spent a lot of money in our life time buying pots and pans. Some even claims "life Time Warranty" and cost triple the price, but nothing last a life time, not even close. When it was time to purchase another set, I did a lot of research (for days). Consumers Report, Amazon.com, etc. Earth Pan received very good reviews over all and it was safe (no PTFEs or PFOAs)- we have young children.
The first few days, everything was fine. We read the instructions twice to make sure we followed everything to the letter. Cons: 1. Non-stick: It still sticks, and depends on what you are cooking, cleaning up afterwards could still be time consuming. 2. Stainless steel handles gets very hot, so be careful, or get the plastic/rubber handle set. 3. Somehow when you get stains on the outside of the pots or pans, NO WAY of cleaning it off. I have research the internet and tried everything, and the stains are still there. 4. Like many other complaints about this set, yes, the pots are too small for everyday use. I agreed. Pro: 1. Earth pan is well made and attractive. 2. Price is right. If oneday the non-stick coating comes off (and they will, like all the other non sticks cookwares we ever own), I don't have to worry about harmful chemicals getting into our bodies (espically our kid's). Update: 11/30/09 These pans are just as bad as the others. It sticks really bad after 3 months. I am so disappointed! Days of research and the "Consumers Report Rating" has not provided me with any satisfactions. Don't buy this. Really.

I thought at first this was an amazing set of pans,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Earth Pan 10 Piece Cookware Sets (Kitchen)
I had a set of stainless steel pans and before that what I consider to be toxic T-Fal type coated pans. So after getting frustrated cooking with holiday company here (hate cooking eggs in stainless steel). I went on amazon to find a new set of eco friendly non toxic pans.
These pans arrived the next day. Amazing! They were more than I hoped for. You are not to use cooking spray on nonstick finish (which I had no idea about before), and they are dishwasher safe. The largest pot is wonderful for cooking pasta for my large family of 6. Making eggs is dream in the skillet or fry pan. I could not be more thrilled with this purchase. I had seen them listed here for $114 after I bought them, wish Amazon would refund the difference for you if it's within 30 days. But regardless this set was well worth the money. They are a good solid set and one you can feel safe using for your family, knowing that no toxic chemicals are leaching into your food as you prepare it. updated review as of 4/1/10: The fry pans in the set are now useless after 4 months. I called the Earth pan company (Meyer) today and explained them that despite my following their directions for pan use (only olive or peanut oil for taste no non stick cooking spray) and though they say not dishwasher safe when you talk to them, Amazon says "dishwasher safe" and the insert directions in the pans themselves do say dishwasher safe as well the earth pan website. The rep was very nice and I was given a choice to return the pans that are ruined (3) and choose something else as a replacement. But the cost to return is on me though they will ship the new pans to me on them. I was also told this is not a warranty issue and that this is not an issue covered on this set of pans as they do not offer a lifetime warranty as on other sets in their pan lines). I would caution other buyers to be mindful when purchasing as eventually these pans will stick. I followed all directions and yes did put them in the dishwasher as that was indicated to be okay. I'm wondering if folks who have not had issues have just opted to handwash instead. Now I'm thinking of just getting two Faberware Stainless fry pans. The rest of this set has not given me any issue so far. I have put the saucepans in the dishwasher with no ill effects, so not sure why the fry pans have been so effected. Meyer told me it might have been a bad batch.

Finish came off, residue on pans,

This review is from: Earth Pan 10 Piece Cookware Sets (Kitchen)
Purchased two skillets in December and was impressed with their non-stick glidy finish. We stir-fry veggies, meat dishes, fish, fry eggs and bacon....but 4 months later we have the finish coming off in small areas all over the bottom and sides! and residue building up that appears baked into the finish. Beware that if you use much high heat with them that this may cause the problem, but regardless, they did not last any time at all. We have had to replace them with new products. The warranty was good for 30 days - and like most warranties they outlived their return policy. I would not buy any more - because if you can't heat them to stir fry or fry eggs without these problems, they aren't worth having!
