Sneak Peek: NEW Gear Review - GreenPan Valencia Pro Nonstick Pan

[SheilaAnn]

fzxdoc finally used it for the first time this morning. OMG, this pan is amazing. I think I will start wrapping it in an Egyptian Cotton towel to prevent damage.....🤪

[Huskee]

Roger that!

[jfmorris]

Huskee haha - bad choice of words. We really like the Oxo pans. I just meant unfortunate in that I won’t get to try ceramic until these wear out...

[Huskee]

You say "unfortunately" the Oxos are holding up. Do you not like them? I've always known Oxo to be really good stuff.

[fzxdoc]

Wow, that's quite a deal, SheilaAnn . Thanks. I'll lie low and hope to score one in a future sale.

We used to buy new T-Fal every 2-3 years, but we needed new ones about every year, we just suffered through the next year or two with aging pans. I hope to get more life outta these. Meathead loves his.

fzxdoc $24.99 for 8”

Next time I buy a non-stick skillet, it will be one of these. Unfortunately, about a year ago I started replacing cookware, and got Oxo Pro 12" and 8" non-sticks, that are still holding up really well a year later. When it is time to replace them, I'll go ceramic.

[jfmorris]

I feel your pain! I cannot tell you how many times I've found family members scraping and scratching the non-stick cookware with metal utensils. I tossed all of it last year and got OXO 12" and 8", and so far, knock on wood, they are holding up.

I'd love to have one of these pans. The truth is that my family has no respect for cookware and would destroy the surface within a month. I've given up on the lot of em'. If I had a crash pad none of them knew about I'd stock it with every size of these pans they make.

I've been using a set of these for over a year and they're still going strong:

They claim they're dishwasher safe and you can use metal utensils but I baby them and wipe them with a little bit of flaxseed oil after washing.

When they're ready to be replaced I'll try the GreenPan.

[Attjack]

That's what I've seen a lot of people in the know recommend. Buy an inexpensive non-stick and replace it each year.

[Huskee]

I had ~$25 built up in Amazon Card points. I pay it off each mo so there's no interest and the 'discount' made me spring into action. Otherwise I'd have deliberated much longer. They aren't cheap, compared to T-Fal anyway.

I like non stick pans for cooking eggs. The one problem I’ve found with all non stick pans is after 8 months to a year no matter how good the quality is at the start they just stop working.

I’ve had $20 pans and I’ve had $100 pans. And after using them a couple times a week for a year they just don’t work how they did when I got them.

I’ve just been buying a $20 ceramic non stick and use it for a year then I’ll get another one.

[fzxdoc]

What was the Prime deal, do you recall, SheilaAnn? Wondering if I should wait for a Black Friday deal.
