does food stick to this pan?

If you use it according to instructions ( preheat pan, medium heat) than food doesn't stick. If you use high heat, it might stick initially. Pan is very easy to clean.

Not if you follow the directions. Although, I find it's best to put some water in it overnight. The next day it comes out beautifully without having to use scrubbers. I also dry it immediately after washing to eliminate water spots. I love my skillet.

I haven't any problems with it, though it's not non-stick. Read somewhere that one good technique is to rub a little oil on the pan, shake in some Kosher salt and rub it in, then oil slightly again. Things sure do not stick with that. They suggested wiping it dry after, rather than washing it, to avoid needing to re-treat, but I'm not so keen on that notion. I really like my Cuisinart cookware.

No, but I've found the more I clean my pan (I use Barkeeper's Friend soft liquid cleanser), the less food tends to stick to it even though it doesn't have a non-stick surface.

It does not have a "non stick" surface. I would say with a little oil, butter - there is no sticking. It took some getting used to, as our prior set was non stick, but overall, these pans will last far, far longer. Non stick coatings tend to flake, scratch or even peel off over time. Hope that helps.

Hello. In response to your question, no it dosent seem to. At least no more than desired based on the way you cook. I bout this pan a while back and love it. Just be sure to wash it before first use as it is oily when it arrives

Yes! Thiis is a stainless steel pan, and for the sake of science & a factual response, I placed a refrigerator magnet on the pan's bottom. It clung successfully :-)I did not an earlier response that claimed "No it doesn't", this is not accurate as I tried it out for you as noted..and indeed the magnet sticks.

No. It has no non-stick coating. If heated to temperature before adding oil, etc. and food items, it does not stick. Just have to learn how to cook with it. Even if something sticks, it does clean up easily.

It does not look like it has a non-stick coating. However, I've not had any issues with it sticking. I did have some of the filling from the pie get on there, but, it washed right off.

The stainless steel interior pan is not coated but if you follow instructions about putting in some oil and warming it before putting in the food, it won't stick and is easily cleaned.

No. I pulled it from the box and immediately cooked stir fry on it with no sticking.

It is not very sticky, but if you let it unattended, it is going to get sticky. It is a better steel. But still, it should not be termed as to a non stick pan. If you are looking for a zero-mess pan, this is not the one. If you are ready to soak it a bit before cleaning and you are not very careless to let the food char, this would be an absolute good buy.

Yes, a magnet sticks to this pan,but can be removed with very little effort. Hope this answers your question.

No everything sticks. The handles actually melt because they're a cheap plastic. I only use the lids now on other pans but even the handles on those are awkward. I really recommend not buying this!

NO it does not. However when using this pot the heat doesn't need to be high, so sticking hasn't been a problem.

technically, no. However I found food to stick regardless. And if you use oil on the food - watch out! Instant fire.

Yes, I still enjoy using this cookware. The coating prevents most sticking issues, especially if preheating and avoiding cooking oils when possible.
