Very good induction skillet
5 out of 5 stars
Very good induction skillet
I bought this skillet after reading a review on Wirecutter which gave it a sparkling recommendation. I read many other recommendations on Amazon too which were also quite positive. Among the comments was how easy it was to clean. Many reviewers noted they put the skillet in the dishwasher. I re-read that information multiple times as this made no sense to me since it is a carbon steel skillet. When I received the skillet the accompanying instructions clearly state there is only one time where soap should be used on the skillet which is for an initial wash. After that it should only be cleaned with hot water and a scrub brush or sponge and should NEVER be put into a dishwasher. If it requires a deeper clean it should only be done with hot water and salt. We have used it for a week and so far it is working well but cleaning regimen is different and the skillet must be dried immediately to avoid any rust formation. I certainly hope it will turn out to be more reliable than the previous induction skillet I purchased. I plan to update this review after a longer period of use.

    This has got to be the best pan I have ever cooked with. Made a little stir fry with some vegetables the other night and it actually charred the vegetables. It was fantastic. Cooks evenly, cleans fast. Just a few instructions, no dishwasher. No soaking of pan, it cleans very easily with sponge and soap and water. It needs to be dried immediately. It was very fast.

    Don’t get this if you’re expecting a relatively user friendly replacement for a nonstick pan. That’s NOT what this is. Figured the season this pan ships with would last and strengthen over time - nope. It broke the first time I tried to make turkey burgers on it. I figured it was my fault because I failed to realize you can’t cook anything acidic on it (strike one). Spent lots of time reading up on how to season these pans and did it several times trying different methods. Even on low heat with plenty of oil or butter in the pan stuff like eggs would still stick (strike two). Then today I figured I would try hamburgers. My seasoning broke immediately. Strike three, you’re out. This thing is going bye bye. Pans like this should ship with ample and specific documentation on how to maintain them, and not allege that they build up their own nonstick coating over time when the most mundane home cooking can easily break the seasoning. I don’t need a pan that is basically a part time job to maintain up to basic usability.

    I avoid non-stick cookware like the plague and prefer carbon steel, so I bought this one because it said "pre-seasoned" in the description and a certain product testing organization I follow rated it highly. As soon as I washed it right out of the box I could tell it was not seasoned with heat and oil, the water beaded up too easily. It felt and behaved exactly like a non-stick coating.

    So I contacted OXO, who directed me to the manufacturer (they don't make their own cookware), The Cookware Company. From there I drilled down into Green Pan, one of their subsidiaries that makes the OXO pan, whose claim to fame is a "non-toxic ceramic non-stick coating". They claim it is non-toxic because it is made of a ceramic derivative of sand, and the manufacturing process doesn't use PFOA or PFAS chemicals.

    That's lovely, but I have no reason to believe it is safe other than their claims. A little bit of research into "non-stick ceramic coatings" revealed that they are made with other, potentially toxic chemicals, and I couldn't find any published studies on their safety. I'm giving it three stars because it's a well-made pan, it certainly feels solid and sturdy, and the silicone grip on the handle is nice, but I don't trust it for cooking my food, especially when they deceptively call it "pre-seasoned" instead of "non-stick". Are they hiding something? I'll just stick to my good ol' oil-seasoned carbon steel wok.

    Very happy so far. Earlier bought the oxo outdoor version. Liked it a lot, so got this. It is preseasoned so don't need seasoning immediately but would need as it ages. My outdoor version has aged well and I learned how to season on it.

    Using it on electric stove, works ok. As others mentioned, the carbon steel isn't for everyone. You need to manage heat well and season it regularly to maintain nonstick surface (patina). These can take very high heat but it can burn your food too, especially on electric stoves where heat won't go down quickly. So it gets more tricky.

    After stirfry or cooking moist items, wash gently if needed, heat dry followed by full oil coating is a must on all exposed steel portions. If you miss out applying oil on handle or sides or bottom, those areas could rust. Most negative comments here I see are due to improper usage. If used appropriately, the results are excellent for stirfry anything or crispy dosa / pancakes etc. Just like cast iron, only lighter and easier to handle after use. Don't keep cooked food for too long in the pan, especially if it is wet. Common sense, iron rusts if exposed to water. Never soak in the sink. Quick rinse, scrub if needed, heat dry, apply oil. That's it.

    Also, note that carbon steel isn't for cooking all types of food. Especially acidic ones like tomatoes or tamarind or yogurt in the recipe. There stainless steel shines. We don't use nonstick cookware anymore.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Not good quality

    Size: 10" Crepe Pan with HandleVerified Purchase
    Terrible quality! Two months of use. Description says more use: This pan naturally develops a non-stick patina over time. Tried to fry a fish, lots of oil - didn't help. Hard to remove residue. Had to use a steel tool. Very expensive for that poor quality.
    Don't buy this product.

    Size: 12" Wok with HandleVerified Purchase
    product is good but smaller that i think. so i return the wok. what surprise me is that, even i m a amazon prime member ship, i still need pay shipping fee to return it. and i need bring the wok to Purolator. more complicated than buy it directly from Costco or Canadian tire

    Size: 10" Frying Pan Skillet with HandleVerified Purchase
    This is my first non Teflon pan. I was amazed that how easy it is to use, clean and maintain it. Glad to find a safe, lightweight, and non stick pan!

    Size: 8" Frying Pan Skillet with HandleVerified Purchase
    I have been a Stainless Steel cookware with occasional use of nonstick so this was my first use of this type of frying pans. Well… I must say I am converted, this is like cast iron and nonstick pans had a baby, great use. Oxo brand is great and the finish, weight and usability is phenomenal, thanks!

    Size: 12" Frying Pan Skillet with HandleVerified Purchase
    After cooking my first steak with this frying pan on the induction stove top, the steak we not cooking evenly. Also, part of the steak got stuck on. I could not remove it. You can see the discoloration on the reverse side of the pan of where the food got stuck. I did not put the stovetop any higher than level 8. The rest of the pans discoloration is normal as it is explained that this is supposed to that way when you use it. I returned the Obsidian Pre-Seasoned Carbon Steel, 12" Frying Pan and purchased the OXO Professional Hard Anodized PFAS-Free Nonstick. Maybe this works better on a traditional stove top.
