Swiss Diamond Cast-Aluminum Nonstick 8-Inch Fry Pan with Lid Reviews
| 17 of 19 people found the following review helpful By This review is from: Swiss Diamond Cast-Aluminum Nonstick 8-Inch Fry Pan with Lid (Kitchen) Over the years, my wife and I have tried all sorts of cookware. We have a good set of Calphalon stainless-steel cookware, but we've never mastered the art of cooking sticky dishes such as eggs without a non-stick pan. We've tried every type of non-stick pan we've encountered. Some are non-stick for a short time only before the surface gets mucked up. Our best Teflon pans, such as those by Calphalon, seem to remain non-stick for a very long time with careful cleaning, but recently we've learned that when heated, Teflon (PFOA) cookware outgases chemicals that are definitely not good for you. (An advisory committee has recommended that the EPA classify PFOA as a possible carcinogen.)Swiss Diamond is PFOA-free and fantastically non-stick. We've used our two skillets extensively to cook eggs and to brown meat, and they look and work like new. Nothing sticks. Omelets are easy to prepare. Cleanup is a breeze. The lids have vents that can be opened or closed, a useful feature. The... Read more 11 of 12 people found the following review helpful By T.G. (Pacifica, ca USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Swiss Diamond Cast-Aluminum Nonstick 8-Inch Fry Pan with Lid (Kitchen) We searched locally for an 8 inch frying pan with a lid. It didn't seem to us that we were trying to find anything obscure - yet, after looking in store after store, I finally decided to try Amazon. I was pleased to find both this one, as well as a more expensive one by Caphalon. I hemmed and hawed over whether I should get the more expensive pan, since I was was more familiar with the Caphalon name, but ultimately I bought this Swiss Diamond pan.If you are indecisive like me, FEAR NOT. This pan is terrific and exceptionally well made. It's heavy - not at all flimsy. It feels just as well made as Magnalite or Caphalon. It very much resembles cast iron in the way it feels, too. For a small pan, it's surprisingly thick and heavy. The handle is solid and it cooks food beautifully. I highly recommend this item. 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful By GW� "Gina Wiggles" (Southern Left Coast....) - See all my reviews The person loved their s.d. so much that I thought I'd give one a try. I guess I've had it about 3 months & use it every day. It browns food well, cooks evenly, & is a breeze to clean. I have a big drawer full of All-Clad....which I love.....but a little nonstick pan like this DOES have it's uses in my kitchen. I have to admit that I've been treating my new baby carefully even tho they say you don't have to. We'll see how it lasts over the long haul. I'm thinking about getting the whole set. It's about the same price as a pan & a half of the All-Clad. PS. I often read criticism about the use of n.s. cookware but I've noticed most cooks I've seen on tv use them for certain things.......including Julia Child & Jacques Pepin. EDIT May 2010 I have been using this dandy little pan at least twice a day for over 9... Read more |
