I suggest that after each washing and drying coat with a thin layer of oil. This is not a non stick finish and not nearly as good as the old enamel interiors. You may need to add some oil each time you cook.

Yes, it does have sticking problems solved by using PAM spray before heating or even when heating the pan. I have 2 sizes of the cast iron pan. Any cast iron pan will have a sticking problem. Another kind of cast iron stops sticking after YEARS of seasoning. The beauty o

I have the exact same problem!! If I could return it I would. Not sure if I should throw it away or try cooking them twice? How long have you had yours?

So far so good for me. I would soak the pan in water and clean the next day. I haven't had any sticking problems. Like any fry pan don't use metal anything in it that would damage the non stick.

I have had my pans for about 12yrs and I have never seen anything like that. How weird. I think I would replace them so the power stuff wouldn't get in my food. You have to admit they are awesome pans! Sorry I couldn't help.

I have a small Le Creuset for almost 2 years and it is still perfect . The surface does not have scraches or other damages. It is a very high quality pan. It is easy to clean - just use a soft cleaning sponge with detergent and water and your pan will last for several years like a new one. I am very happy with my pan. Hope you will be happy with your as well. Just one tip: do not use metal cutlery in any kind of pan, just wood or silicone.

It shouldn't be sticking... I would call the manufacturer. They should be able to tell you how to fix it or send you a replacement part!

They do cook very well, while they last. Yes you can deglase them and they are extremely easy to clean up .... Again ... while the they last!BUT! Buyer beware. These are NOT the same cookware made years ago. "Lifetime Guarantee"? Forget it. Go their web site and call that "877" number to get a replacement for your defective product, then try to speak with some one who can speak English fluently! It won't happen ... been there done that!

Did you scratch it? I have had mine for two years. I have used it at least once a week every week and never had it to stick. If it's not scratched and you are using Pam, I don't know. Sorry.

I didn't season mine and it's fine. But always use oil when frying/sauteeing; it's not really non-stick. Also, do not put in the dishwasher. And be advised: It is not real ceramic; it's a plastic polymer-coated pan. The coating is "safe", but if it's scratched, throw it away because the layer under the coating contains lead and other heavy toxic metals such as cadmium. Most of the reviews/research I have read say its usage life is about a year. Good luck.

I believe these pans have a life-time warranty as long as it was treated according to the care and use instructions by the manufacturer - I would check with de Buyer

Mine started sticking after first cooking. Called the company and they where not helpful. DON'T BUY waste of money. I bought a $10 pan from Walmart and its way better then j.a. henckles pan ever was.

Hi JMaine,I bought this pot last Christmas and I am getting another this December. They are great!!! Non-stick (without the unnecessary coating) is more like it. If ever something gets stuck in there, don't you worry. It comes off with one swipe of your dish sponge. If you are considering this pot I recommend that you do make that purchase. They are pricy but you won't regret your money.Good luck and enjoy your Le Creuset pot.

I've had one of my pans for about 5 yrs, it still cooks evenly, shows no wear and I still love it . Pans show no wear after years of use, I should let you know I do not place my skillets in the dishwasher. I hand wash.

When new you should oil it after every use - after 20-30 uses the oil forms a brown patina on the outside and inside. Do not wash with soap - use hot water and a scotch brite pad. I use the blue "teflon" pad to scrub out any stuck on food. These pans are the french equivalent of a lodge cast iron pan.

Eastman fixed the flaking problem long ago. My original pan from a few years ago flaked. Eastman replaced it and the new one has what appears to be an enamel finish. Ive used it many times since with no issues.

I didn't receive any warranty on this...it's just a regular buy. This product I'm using almost everyday and it works so good...I even made pancakes on it and it didn't stick at all. It's a great pan! :) Hope this helps.
