i have read alot about this pan warping. Is it due to using to high of heat? Has anyone had the pan warp at a med or med-low heat setting?

I have not used high heat but almost always, medium high with absolutely no problem. I LOVE this griddle!

Not me thanks God! I have used it with every single temp and it looks perfect. I totally love this pan

My pan hasn't warped due to the fact that I let it cool first before washing. I think the degree of heat should not matter; just try letting the pan cool before washing. Hope this helps.

This is a high quality pan. Weve used it for over a year and it has not warped. The secret is not to wash it until it cools down. If you run water over it, especially cold water, it will warp due to the sudden change of temperature. Hope this helps.

Yes you can. I've used mine multiple times a week and still have no issues with the non stick and have had it a few years. I'm not the quickest go clean it after cooking..so its always is cool when I go back to clean so I can't comment on warping.. I love this pan!

I haven't had that problem. I use it pretty much only for pancakes. My issue is that the heating isn't very even. But to get really even heat I think you'd have to invest a lot. So for the price it's ok.

I know they caution against high temps but nothing on low temps causing warping. The best way to know would be to contact the company.

I returned mine. Bottom warped 1/4 inch at first heat up. Non stick was ok but no real time to test.

Nope, not a bit of warping. Pretty thick and durable, but I haven't baked at a temperature above 400 degrees. I still don't think it'll warp.

I have had the pan for about a year I believe and I have had no problems with it. I don't know if it is warp resistant but mine shows no sign of warping. I only wash it by hand. It is a nice weight and thickness so it feels like a good quality pan. I use it pretty much every day and it cooks as good today as when it was new. I highly recommend this pan.

They" make all these 'non-stick' pans look like they are "all that and a bag of chips." Not so. I have been super conscientious in my use of this pan; I don't use high heat, I let it come to temperature, etc. What I have learned is that the hype lasts as you described. I did read somewhere that one should always use a coating before cooking. Are these pans better than less expensive one? Who knows?

The one I have is not non-stick. The stainless model has a nice thick bottom and hasn't warped yet. I think if it does you are using way too much heat. Never overheat a non-stick pan.

What I have found with all non stick pan is that you can only cook in med heat. Any higher and the coating starts to slowly come off which make it ineffective.

I've used this set of Chicago Metallic pans, all the way to 450 degrees baking, with no problem, do use the 500 setting on broil, to brown the tops of cornbread, or biscuits? I've had other Pans by this same Co., for at least 25ys., although they are a little heavier, than this set, still no problem, whatsoever? I Enjoy this great brand of pan! I usually do biscuits on 450 degrees all the time, and have used these several mo.'s now, and no discoloration, or warping! Hope this was helpful!

What were you cooking? I have never had anything stick to mine, I can literally burn a piece of cheese to my frying pan and it will slide rite off.... I do use olive oil in a Misto oil sprayer Misto Brushed Aluminum Olive Oil Sprayer with olive oil in it...These pans do not need high heat, I have noticed low is like medium in other pans and a little under medium is like high, they are very conductive, try lowering your heat and don't put food on a cold pan.

Once it warps unfortunately not much you can do. This cutting board requires a good coating of oil and wax to keep it in good condition. You may want to contact manufacturer and see if they will replace.

I have had this happens with pans before that have a coating. I think it gets old after a while, and micro cracks form. I know generously prep all pans with butter and/or flour or use parchment paper.

We use on a gas stove, but have had no warping after years of use. We don't use with high temperature. Our purpose for using is to get lower temperature than the lowest flame setting, for simmering, so high temps and warping seem like moot points.

I've had my lasagna pan for about 2 years and have had no problems. In addition, I have owned a full set of All-Clad cookware for over 20 years and I've never seen any warping. Do these pots and pans really warp?

Mine has a heavy triple layer bottom with an aluminum layer the middle. It takes a high heat very well. No warping. I keep it clean clean with a Scotch Bright green pad, as suggested by some lady on the internet. She says stainless steel is the best. Al. is definitely no good. I tried that. Enameled cast iron chips.
