Quite simply the very best frying pan I've ever owned.Short version: I've tried everything from uber expensive ceramics that stuck instantly to everything put in them to cheapo sticky 'non stick but the non stick peels off and gets in your food' rubbish from the bargain stores. Get these, don't bother looking elsewhere, they're superb. The pans feel substantial and are well made. They are well balanced and give the overall impression of great quality.Long version (for if you're bored): I'd been using some expensive ceramics for the last couple of years and honestly thought that my cooking skills were horrendous. Everything stuck, everything burned, no amount of oil or anything else helped.

There are several styles of fryer made by Tefal and this is one of the few to have a riveted handle; most are screwed and potentially liable to loosen with repeated use as have several in the past and which led to their disposal. There are also several different styles of handle, some straight and others with a distinct dog-leg where the outer portion is much higher than the point of attachment. This has a relatively straight one with a silicone grip over the metal. That will consequently limit the maximum temperature to about 200-deg C should it ever be used in the oven.Although designed with the involvement of a TV chef, the "Tefal Jamie Oliver Hard Enamel Classic Series Non-stick Frying Pan,

Having bought about 8 frying pans over the last 5 years and all of them failing in one way or another, I thought I would spend a little bit more this time and as we have had good Tefal pans many years ago, I thought I would go for the hard enamel range. I'm so glad I did, having used this almost daily for over a month now there is no sign of wear at all. Right from the start, once primed with a coating of oil, this pan has proven to be the least "sticky" of my recent frying pans with all food types just gliding off and most importantly without any food residue which can stick on other "non-stick" surfaces. Our recent Ceramic coated pan started deteriorating almost immediately due to the coating being so thin and other coatings have all come off within a year.

I'm very pleased with the quality of this pan, I ordered it in late February for £20 and it arrived a month earlier than expected. It has a thick heavy base, a wide rim, a riveted handle with a rubber grip (which I assume is silicone so will be oven safe), and is non-stick. Me and my family have gotten through so many pans over the years, as the surfaces get severely worn by scratches and flaking, and the handles become very loose. This pan however is protected by a lifetime guarantee from flaking and wear of the surface, so it gives me the confidence that it will last over the years (though I would still advise using plastic utensils on the pan's surface to preserve it).

I have managed to get through several cheap woks over the years, some just lasting months, they turn nasty, start peeling or the handles and pan are so poor the pan flexes dangerously at the handle joint when lifted. So I applied the same principles as I did when replacing my frying pan - get a decent pan and save in the long run. 3 years on and the wok still looks and functions as new.The Teflon is strongly bonded onto the pan and there are no signs of it flaking, blistering or peeling. The pan is strong and the handle is firmly attached with no sign of it breaking away. Even with full pan, when I lift it, there is no flexion in the handle. I use this about 3 times a month.

This is a real step-up in quality from the less expensive Tefal pans. I had been looking for a new wok for a while and had considered this one as well as the Raymond Blanc Anolon version. Having had the chance to handle both pans there wasn't much between them in terms of weight and quality, but this one wins on price - at £25 from Amazon it's a steal!The non-stick is very high quality and is described as safe for metal untensils (apart from knives or whisks). In use it cooks to perfection on a low to medium heat, Tefal's heat spot is a useful guide to avoid overheating the pan. It washes up perfectly by hand every time.All in all this will make a fine addition to any kitchen and with the right care should last a while.

I know there are probably more expensive items out there but this fries eggs FAR better than the much more expensive Le Creuset frying pan we also have. Originally I was sent the smaller sized pan in error but this was quickly resolved by Amazon customer service. The pan itself cooks well and cleans well. The handle is perfect sized. All in all it seems a quality bit of kit. It also has enough weight in it to be confident it wont move on the hob. Not tried for anything but eggs yet but so far am very happyUpdate April 2015This pan has been used heavily now. Been used for many different food types. Cleans up easily and still looks as good as new. I've found that the heat needs turning down almost to minimum once the pan is hot enough,

Amazing.I'm probably a bit sad for loving a frying pan so much, but these are so good, I've got 4 of them in different sizes. They are just a world apart from a cheap non-stick pan. I've had the oldest ones for several years, and there isn't a single mark on the non-stick surface.The pans are solid enough to absorb the heat and spread it nicely over the pan - the grip is fantastic, a rubberised layer over metal. 2 big rivets hold the handle on, and look unlikely to ever break.The angle of the edges of the pan make it a bit tricky to flip food in, that's the only downside that I can offer - you can still do it, but it takes a really strong wrist flip.The sides being so upright make this more like a skillet.Still,

I bought this to replace a tired old Tefal pan of the same size, although this a bit deeper which is nice.However, an immediate little niggle stops me from rating it a five star. Unlike the old pan, the rivets holding the handle are fitted after the non stick covering. The first time I used it was for scrambled eggs which stuck on and around the edge of the rivets and didn't easily wash off. I didn't want to use a scourer and had to resort to a brush.Will have to see how it goes for other things but this pan will be used mainly for those eggs. The enamel base on the old one was messed up by the many times in the dishwasher, so am a bit reluctant to put this one in,

i buy several of these every year for our working kitchen, its the only pan i can find where the handle doesnt start to wobble after a few months, excellent for tortilla where the pan needs to be light enough to invert with one hand while full of a hot mess of eggs potatoes olive oil. i do notice that the newer model has the handle in two parts, so instead of the handle bolting straight in to the pan with 2 bolts, it goes in to a bracket. which means sadly it will wobble eventually. so i am going to corner the market and buy enough of these to last me a few years. cannot face going thru this exercise again to find a pan light enough to do my job and a handle strong enough to do its job.

this is the best frypan I have ever used by a country mile.i have the Andrew james 33 ltre mini oven and I found that the stainless steel fry pan that I was using would not come up to temp for efficient cooking {surprise surprise}. I would just say that this 24cm pan fits on the large hob just right because it leaves about a half an inch overlap around it which seems to be the right equation.i can now fry bacon and eggs on it on the 350 watt setting with ease. I am sure this not only applies to the Andrew james but to all the other mini ovens with hobs but just remember to apply the half inch rule and tailor the frying pan to the size of hob that you will be using for this purpose

I've been using this wok for 3 years. No signs of wear, the non stick still works just as well as when I bought it.I've used it for probably nearly every day during those 3 years on a variety of different hobs and cannot complain. It holds heat well and is great for a whole variety of different dishes and cuisines. Curries, chillies, stir fry. I've even used it for soup, cooked for 10 people from it and made pancakes in it. If I could only have one pan then this would be the one.It's not too heavy, just a nice weight to it, and it's very easy to clean even if left to cool and dry. A splash of hot water and anything that's stuck will slide straight off.

It's still in 99% condition after a few years. No warping. None of the non-stick has come away. The underside is still immaculate with no burn marks. The handle is still rock solid and it still looks like new if i'm honest. I use this pan every single day to cook and it'll last me many more years that's for sure. Pay that bit more and you save yourself in the long run from replacing the cheap ones. I'll be buying the smaller ones soon no doubt.Put it this way. My mother has had 3 frying pans in the time i've had this one, and paid almost £50 more than me in replacing them. It's a no brainer! Buy Hard enamel or Anodised. They'll last you years!

I've had this for several months now and it's had some heavy use at high heats. It's thick construction feels solid and well weighted in the hand and performs brilliantly on my gas hob.The pan is really easy to clean even no matter how dirty you get it. I've also used it in the oven.I've had cheaper Tefal pans in the past which have lasted a long time, but an ex-chef friend of mine recommended these to me, and despite my reluctance to spend more I'm pleased I did given the performance of the pan.You can use very little oil in this pan with no sticking (or even no oil for meats) and you can get it up to high heats for quick cooking.

A great pan. I'm always a little sceptical of celebrity endorsed products like this but in this case I needn't have worried. The slightly textured surface is different to any other non-stick pans I've owned and works very well. I would go as far as to say you don't really need any oil in the pan to prevent sticking. After a couple of months of regular use it's still performing as new so I have high hopes of it's longevity. Not sure about the 'thermo-spot' feature, it seems a bit gimmicky and I still use my own judgement for pan temperatures. Other than that - highly recommended and I'm considering other pans from the range.
