Amazon.com Product Description

Get serious about your cooking and your green credentials while you add style to your kitchen with this 10-inch nonstick skillet from Farberware's Earth Pan II line in espresso. It features an aluminum construction that heats up quickly and helps reduce hot spots that can cook foods unevenly. The dual riveted stainless steel handle is covered with a thick, comfortable silicone holder, and both the pan and silicone handle are oven safe to 600 degrees F. The handle also includes a hole for hanging. Earth Pan cookware works on all cooking surfaces, except for induction cookers.

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.

This skillet is dishwasher safe, though handwashing is recommended to ensure longevity. Metal utensils and abrasive cleaners or brushes should be avoided. Earth Pan's packaging material and inserts are made from at least 50 percent recycled fiber with all materials being 100 percent recyclable.

Product Description

The foundation of all EarthPan II products is the exclusive SandFlow nonstick. This unique nonstick originates from sand and is formulated to provide excellent food release and easy cleanup. Based on industry lab tests, the SandFlow nonstick food releasing performance will outlast all other ceramic-based, cookware, 3 to 1.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not Recommended For Glass Top Stoves, January 29, 2010

We received this skillet and it is well made and the non-stick surface works very well. However I have rated this skillet lower to draw attention to the fact that according to its enclosed literature the skillet is not recommended for glass top stoves. They recommend buying stainless steel or anodized finish rather than enameled surface. This information should be included here in the description.

This review is from: Earth Pan II Nonstick 12-Inch Skillet, Terra Cotta (Kitchen)

Earth pans are the best pans I have ever used and even better is that they are a natural product that does not out gas into your food. I have been using Earth Pans for several months now and will never go back to other non-stick pans. I recommend using wooden or silicone utensils as with all nonstick pans. Most of the time I wash my pans in the dishwasher with no problem.
If you care about what you take into your body and you want non-stick these pans are the way to go and the cost is affordable as well.

Well I was hoping I could give a review on this product. Here goes:
It was received in a very timely manner! I use this pan almost every day. Seems to be of a better quality than the teflon non stick options out there. I love that it does NOT contain the harmful stuff thats in teflon, dupont, etc. Nice size, color and love the handle too, its silicone. Its very easy to handle and has a nice feel to it!
I L-O-V-E it!!!!!!!! I believe the price was a fair price for such good quality! Seems to be easier cleanup than other pans...SO GLAD I made the purchase. I only hope they come out with more items-like perhaps a 3 or 4 or 5 qt. sauce pot. I dont remember seeing any. Perhaps sometime in the near future; If and when they do, and I IF I can afford more of these "Earth Pans-I would definitely buy more!!!!!!!
