HexClad Hybrid Nonstick Frying Pan, 20 cm, Stay-Cook Handle, Dishwasher and Oven Safe, Induction-Ready, Compatible with All Cooktops

Fantastic pan, makes frying simple with little oil and food tastes wonderful too, not greasy. Easily cleaned.

The non stick capabilities are out of this world

I'd had my eye on this pan for a while after seeing a few YouTube chefs use it, and was really excited to receive it for Christmas. I tested it by frying an egg in it, and it was great - just like the ads. Since then, however, the non-stick surface has worked less and less well, to the point where it's now completely ineffective, even with a load of oil. Everything sticks to it, it's a pain to clean (since despite saying it's "dishwasher-friendly, the instructions say to hand wash it), and it can barely even fry an egg at this point without it sticking. Wouldn't be so disappointed if it hadn't been so expensive, but at over £150, I can't help but feel it's a complete waste of money.

Amazing piece of kitchenware. Always been a bit sceptical about the claims of how good these pans are but was really impressed. You have to read the instructions-yes there instructions on how to season it first before cooking in it to get the best results! Nothing sticks to it. Tried pancakes first- they were perfect!! Fried eggs in the evening- perfect!! Expensive but worth it. Will be buying a few more pans now from the huge selection

TL;DR: A great pan overall except for non-stick unless you regularly season the pan, not the best anywhere (except cleaning). Note: Per the instructions, we seasoned the pan upon receiving it, before first usage. Our verdict after 6 months of daily use. Pros: - Excellent searing power and heat distribution. Yes, you should do your cooking at medium to low heat most of the time, but if you like your steak rare, you can quickly form a crust by using high heat. - Easiest pan to clean. Without a doubt and by far, the easiest pan I ever had to clean. Sometimes, it almost feels like running water on it is enough. Also because it is metal-resistant, you can safely use a scourer. - Durability. The pan looks and feels durable. After 4 months of daily usage, it still looks as good as new, the surface is still scratchless and inspires reliability, unlike cheap non-stick pans that were good for the bin after 6 months (despite using silicon ustensils). Cons: - Not very good for non-stick. Like most non-stick pans, it is amazing the first week or two, then gets worse after that. After 4 months of use, the non-stick is just as bad as any average non-stick pan, even if you use some fat. That said, somehow the non-stick still applies when it comes to cleaning, but don't expect your eggs to fly like in the promotional videos (it actually works the first week, not beyond that...). - Value for money. Despite certain qualities, the price point is too high if you consider some excellent and cheaper alternatives, in particular the Tefal Speckled line-up (Mineralia/Natural Force). Conclusion: The Hexclad pan is excellent overall. But the price point is way too high when you compare it to the Tefal Speckled pans. Those only lose to Hexclad in searing power and cleaning, but they come at a fraction of Hexclad's price and their non-stick work wonderfully (making them fairly easy to clean as well). The only issue we have with the Tefal one is their avaiability, especially at the sizes we need (20cm and 22cm). UPDATE: It looks like the non-stick properties can still be outstanding after 8 months of daily use. We just happened to decide to season the pan again before cooking an omelet and the eggs could really fly off the pan (see video), instead of being all stuck a couple weeks before.... Now, while that is great news regarding non-stick, we are not upgrading the rating. If seasoning the pan before each usage is required for perfect non-stick, you might end up using (wasting) a lot of oil just to upkeep the non-stick while this is not necessary with the Tefal pans (the ones with speckled "stone" surface). In that case, one advice would be using some oil you would throw away regardless: we season the pan using the sunflower oil from tuna tins.

Excellent. Easy to clean and is extremely easy to use. I have the wok and the small frying pan

Great engineering

I purchased this along with the 6 peice set, and while the 6 peice set still looks like new, this frying pan has performed poorly. The outside has badly discoloured, and pretty much everything sticks to it, even though I season it every time. It has only ever been hand washed and dried immediately. The 'lifetime warranty' claim was rejected even with picture proof. I cook the same with all the pans on lower temps so it's strange this 1 pan is so bad. I would reccomend not purchasing from this company.

It’s a fake product that you are selling. The pan is not from hex clad it’s from a brand called Flanek. Handle is different from photo of advertised product.

It is everything the ads say about it. I believe I will be happy with this pan far into the future.

J avais des doutes… apres tant de poeles que j ai deja essaye. Je les avais toujours que qqes mois avant d avoir les premieres griffes dedans. Pas la hexclad. Le revetement tient super bien et elle est stylish. Ne la chauffez pas trop fort. Une chaleur moyenne suffit et evite que les aliments collent

I’ve been using the HexClad 12-inch hybrid nonstick frying pan, and it’s quickly become one of my most-used pans in the kitchen. The hybrid nonstick surface is a great balance between traditional nonstick and stainless steel. Food releases easily, but I can still get a good sear on meats. It handles eggs, vegetables, and proteins well without sticking when used properly. The pan heats evenly, feels solid and well-built, and the stay-cool handle is comfortable and secure. I also like that it’s induction-ready and works on all cooktops, which makes it very versatile. Being oven safe and dishwasher safe is a big bonus for convenience and cleanup. This isn’t a flimsy lightweight pan — it feels durable and designed to last. As long as you follow the recommended care (medium heat and light oil), performance has been excellent. Overall, this is a high-quality, all-purpose frying pan that performs well across a wide range of cooking tasks and is worth the investment.

C’était un cadeau de Noël et il a été fort apprécié ! Approuvé après test très concluant !
