I'm not sure what crack the other reviewers have been smoking, or if this seller has been sending them the wrong pans . . . The only official retailers in the US are:

. HSN from their airing and their website.
. Target Stores.
. Crate & Barrel.
. Frontgate Catalog house.

That's direct from GreenPan. I got mine at Target and loved it so much I bought the rest of the set. Nothing sticks to them, and I mean nothing. I've burnt eggs on it just for the fun of it and it comes off with water and a little finger rubbing. This is the only dish I don't throw through the dishwasher simply because it's just too easy to clean.

And let me add, I'm no expect at non-stick pan cleaning. I'm used to cast iron pans. After a year of daily cooking and cleaning this pan doesn't show any scratches. So bottom line, these pans do as they promise. Perhaps they should be bought from official outlets to ensure you're actually getting the right product. Otherwise, you won't regret buying these pans. I haven't.

[...] For their official site.

i have the 12 inch stainless steel version which i got for christmas. 4 months later and the non-stick aspect has essentially failed. the coating is still in tact, but many things, tofu in particular, are sticking to the surface. we have had non-stick pans in the past, and all but the cheapest the surface held up well. We were not novices to the care of this stuff. We were excited about this one with the non-PFOA coating. It worked great at the start, but quickly declined. Our use of a nylon scrubby when stuff started to stick appears to have hastened its demise. Still, for a viable option these things need to be more robust. An average stainless steel skillet works better at this point. Sad.

We've been using this pan for a couple of months. I must say that this pan has not performed up to the same standards as some of the other reviewers, and yet not as poorly as the rest.

We own all kinds of pans, le crueset, all clad, teflon (now discarded), cast iron, traditional carbon steel woks. We love them all. The greenPan I must say I'm on the fence about. We purchased this to make eggs, nothing cooks eggs like teflon, it just glides off. We decided to replace our teflon pan when the handle broke and looked for something environmentally friendly.

We do some light sauteing in this pan, and veggies and bits of meat are fine in this. but when we cook eggs....it needs more oil and it definitely sticks. Not horribly, but it does stick, bits of egg are left behind when i remove the egg when using a half teaspoon of oil and spreading it out with a brush. Infact, I think my le crueset pans perform on par if not better, but they are too heavy to flip omelettes. I'm confused by a reviewer who said that their eggs just slide off even without any oil. That's definitely not the case here.

However, it does clean up easily. While i can fry the same egg in an All Clad with sufficient oil, but where this pan excels is the clean up. Despite fried rice bits and egg stuck on the surface, with hot water and some soap it cleans up beautifully. For that I'll give it 3 stars despite it not being fully non-stick.

We purchased this pan in two sizes and were excited to find pans that would be safer than our old non-stick pans. After carefully following the seasoning instructions, we the pans several times to make pancakes, etc. and were utterly disappointed--everything sticks to it unless you use a ton of oil--and where is the health benefit in that? If we want to cook with less oil, we use our stainless steel fry pan! Also, once something is stuck on these Green Pans, they become impossible to clean. This product is terrible. Do not waste your money like we did.

Everything sticks to this darn thing! And what ever you do...DON"T SCRAMBLE EGGS in it! It was so hard to get off the scum from this non stick pan that I threw it away! Way too hard to clean. The nerve that they would sell this for so much money!

I bought the Stockholm collection at Costco for $99. I was reluctant to buy it because all
I needed was just a good non-stick pan, not the whole set, but after a long deliberation in the store I decided to just buy it for myself and another set for my brother and his wife, (there were only three sets left). The first time I used it I was genuinely amazed how everything just slides out of the pan, I even made over easy eggs and flipped them using the chef's trick, when you just throw it and flip it without the utensil, I was just so happy that I could do it. Next I made potato pancakes, which usually require a lot of oil to cook it, and I used just a minimum, more for taste than anything else, and while I was cooking I just repeated like some kind of mantra "amazing, amazing, amazing" even my twelve year old son agreed that it was truly an amazing pan (he also loves to cook). To be totally honest I own it only for one week, but I am really happy for this purchase. The fact that is non-toxic combined with really good deal from Costco, and the fact that I can cook potato pancakes more often since I will not feel as guilty eating them, I give an absolute five stars and more. By the way, I am not a novice cook, and I own Vita mix brand pots, so I am familiar with good kitchen equipment.

My wife bought a used ancient set of All Clad about 30 years ago. Still going strong. A few years ago I bought a 10" All Clad. Could not get it seasoned. Everything stuck to it like glue. After 2 years, @$100, I threw it in the garbage. Last year, I saw an 8" Green Pan at Target for about $15. I wanted an exclusive egg pan. I use olive oil or butter so non stick wasn't a big issue as long as the pan didn't act like a glue magnet. Pan worked great so I bought the 11". Both are my favorite pans. The pans are used on an old Kenmore electric so I don't use big heat on them but I don't baby them either. The both clean up with a wipe from a Tuffy regardless of the recipe. I've been cooking for 55 years. These are the best pans I've owned. I wish I could find the 9 1/2". Target only sells that size in a wok and I already have a very good wok. However, the $87 pan advertised here is too crazy for me. Hopefully, Target will stock this size for the same price as the others (sub $25).

I love this pan. I've used this pan for pretty much everything that can be prepared in a pan since I bought it (approximately 3 months ago), and it still looks like new. Even my husband likes to use it because it's so easy to clean. The only negative thing he has to say about the pan is that it's hard to make Eggs over Easy because they don't get crispy enough.
The non-stick surface is great. The pan is also very resistant to scratches, although I have to say I have not tried to scratch it up on purpose.
The pan is a great product. I'll definitely buy other products from GreenPan when my current pots and other pans need to be replaced.

I purchased an 8" GreenPan over a year ago. It has proved to be an amazing product. It has remained looking almost new despite frequent use and never having been scrubbed or placed in the dish washer. The non stick performance from the outset has been better than any Teflon pan I have had - and I have gone through a number of them in the past couple of decades. I have only cooked at lower temperatures with the pan; mostly cooking eggs, but occasionally other things. I occasionally use a little butter or oil for flavor but the pan's non stick performance is just as good without it - the eggs slide out by simply tilting the pan without requiring a spatula. I generally just wipe it out with a paper towel or rinse it quickly under the kitchen faucet. Definitely two thumbs up...
