DELARLO Tri-Ply Stainless Steel Skillet, 12 Inch Frying Pan with Lid, Compatible with All Cooktops Up to 600, Fast & Even Heat, Induction Cookware, Dishwasher Safe

I bought this bad boy during Black Friday and I've been using it continuously since. I was a non-stick user before and this guy was my first stainless steel pan, so there was definitely a learning curve, but my oh my did it pay off! I don't even reach for my cast iron skillet anymore because this pan does everything! It's super wide, so I can brown a ton of food and it browns really well! It's also got sides tall enough for making curries or stews. I can cook like three days worth of food in it. It's also super easy to clean as the inside is a continuous surface with no screws or crannies where food can get stuck in. I've burnt stuff on this and Barkeeper's Friend + Scrub Daddy took it right off with no scratches! This is such a good multi use pan and very durable. It's also very affordable compared to the Made-In or other popular brands.FYI: It doesn't come with a lid, so you'll need to buy one yourself.

Having been on the business end of countless cooking vessels, the first thing I will say is I dislike handles with rivets protruding into the inside of the pan. I have not seen any riveted pans that are NSF certified, due to bacteria/food being difficult to clean, especially with dishwasher-only process. There's no good reason not to weld the handles, or attaching hardware, other than maybe being cheaper? It's nice to use a spatula and cleanly swipe the inside of the pan to get what you're cooking off the sides....rivets prevent that. The removable handle(s) are a nice touch. I have never had any issues with the nuts or attachment process. Maybe some people did but could be a defect in the threads, or overtightening. Put a drop of oil on the threads before tightening, and lift the handle up and down while final-tightening, which allows a completely solid connection, which I have never had loosen. BTW, the thread is a 5mmx.8mm common metric thread, so if you lose a nut (they give you extras) you can buy them on amazon. Some pans have the handle permanently welded to the pan but I like the removable feature, allowing storage in tight areas, or I sometimes keep it off and use the pan like a pie pan to bake with, and the handle being off, makes it less cumbersome in the oven. If you make skillet-browned cornbread, this works almost as well as a cast iron skillet. There are no lids with this but the price is great, and you can buy lids, or if you're like me, you already have lids that fit these saute pans. The lip of these pans are flared out, making pouring liquid/stew/etc out clean with no drips down the side of the pan. I measured temperatures across the bottom of the pan while heating on an induction cooktop. The temperature was very uniform across the interior, and the magnetic coupling to the induction coils was very efficient, indicating a good magnetic stainless steel used in the mfg process. To season the pan, I use either coconut oil, or avacado oil (not spray oil, as the lecithin used for release agent will break down under high heat). So heat the pan to around 400F (after first cleaning it), then wipe the oil to coat the pan's inside with a paper towel and oven mitten(s). This will greatly reduce sticking. So to recap, great pan, flat bottom, great handle and attachment hardware, easy to clean and use. Price is also very good for high quality pans. I've cooked several meals, cornbread, and desserts with them, and am still happy with my purchase!

This 12-inch stainless steel pan is a great deal! I snagged it for just $26 (after a $10 clip-on coupon on the product page), and it has exceeded my expectations, especially considering the price.The heat distribution is good, seems about average from other pans I have seen reviewed. The pan takes longer than I expected to heat up, but it being my first stainless pan it could be normal. Following simple YT tutorials, I had zero sticking issues with my first-ever stainless steel cook - fried eggs and pancakes turned out perfectly. There is some discoloration after cooking however I read it is normal and doesn't affect the food and can be removed with some elbow grease(there are plenty of tutorials online how).The rivetless design is a nice addition and one I don't see in many stainless pans. The pan has a nice weight to it giving it a high-end feel. I personally really like the handle, It feels very comfortable in my hand and I can get a good grip, I was able to install it with no issues.In summary, my initial review is that this stainless steel pan offers really good performance and at its price point it is a great value. A solid 5-star rating for me!

I've had it a year and a half now, just a few minor complaints keeping it from "perfect."1. The little screws that hold on each handle (one on side of the pan, one on lid) like to come loose so need occasional tightening. Might be fixed by adding a washer of some sort/ maybe some loktite? but not the end of the world.2. The finish is actually kind of delicate, eg I polished the inside with some Barkeep's Friend and it left tiny tiny pits in one spot. Perhaps my own fault for being too vigorous but again, not world ending. I only polish it once in a blue moon now so it stays ugly, *clean* but ugly haha.3. Now the one truly concerning bit I just noticed, we'll see how it goes. The metal border around the lid sort of pinches the glass in place, and I realized upon close OCD examination that water can easily enter between the glass and metal but not exit so easily. There's a tiny bit of water just sort of sloshing around in there, particles, it looks like a snowglobe of filth... I'm still using it but just thinking "out of sight, out of mind" lol.Anyway for the price I'm happy. Every other stainless steel pan I've seen is like twice as much, and this pan still works just fine.

This is an excellent pan for the price. It heats up fast, and evenly. The bottom is slightly convex upwards so much of the middle of the pan is slightly off the burner, which isn't ideal for electric stovetops. However, this wasn't an issue and could actually protect the pan from warping the other way. If you use oil, not much sticks to the pan, but of course it isn't as non-stick as an actual non-stick pan. The pan is also easy to clean if you leave warm water in it after cooking to soak. Overall, a relatively high quality pan that works well and is easy to use. Also the perfect size for bit meals!
