Is the interior of this pan cast iron? In a review someone mentioned it being non-stick. I'm looking for cast iron-NOT non-stick.

Ours is definitely NOT "non stick". And I should know, my wife insists that I wash it after we use it. That's not fair. help me!

It is cast iron with an enameled finish that makes it act more like a well seasoned cast iron or a non stick pan. It is textured like traditional cast iron and behaves very much like cast iron but cleans easier.

Fry pan is not non stick coated. I was disappointed in that part of it because I have an induction stove and have had many dishes stick to the pan, i.e. fried eggs

It does not have a non-stick coating. It's a great pan, though. Rarely buckles in a hot oven, heats evenly and does wash easily even though it doesn't have a non-stick coating.

No. This pot does not have a non-stick coating on the inside. It is smooth, easy-clean, stainless steel. The bottom of this pot has layers for even heating, and I have never had food-sticking problems. Of course, you can always create sticking problems by leaving food in it, having the fire to high, and/or other careless kitchen errors.

This pan has a non stick coating on the inside...you Don't season it. I travel with it...and love it....small but suits my needs

No Ellie, these pans are not non-stick inside. However, they are a very good quality stainless steel and using my favorite stainless steel cleaner when I use them, they are easy to clean and do not tend to stick. I highly recommend these, particularly when space is limited.

It is not non stick, it is stainless steel. The bottom of the pan has aluminum encapsulated in stainless steel. If you prep. the pan correctly it is almost as good as non stick.( and you are not eating the non stick coating)

It is not a non stick surface. As with all stainless steel cookware, you have to stay close and watch. It is a great heat conductor but can stick if left unattended. I love this cookware.

The entire inside of the cooking pot is non-stick; however, I have no idea what material/ were used to make it so. I'd give a call to the Hamilton Beach hotline and see if they can answer your question.

It not non stick in the sense that coated non stick pans are. It becomes somewhat non stick like a cast iron skillet with curing and repeted use.Cure as you would a cast iron skillet. The more you use it the better the non stick properties become

It does not look like a nonstick interior, but it really acts like it. It looks like metal. However, it is very easy to clean with only a sponge, so it must be some type of non-stick I am not used to seeing. If you let it sit for a short time with soap and warm water, it always cleans very easily.

I thought the same thing, but it is non-stick. It's silver instead of the traditional black. You will see when you clean up the pan how easy stuff comes off.

Cast iron is not "non-stick" in the sense of Teflon or some "magical" coating. If properly seasoned and oiled when using, it will not stick to the food you are making. They come seasoned from the factory, so using a good non-stick coat of oil will keep your food from sticking. I have made meatloaf and bread in this pan and never had one stick. Also remember you can use a slightly lower heat setting with cast iron because it distributes heat better than other types of metal pans.

It does have a nonstick coating inside the pan. It is not invisable...it looks.like Teflon.

This is a stainless steel set, no non-stick interiors. However, if pans are properly preheated before adding food, there will be very little sticking.

I did have a couple of sticks the first few times I used it, but as you use it, it gets to where it won't stick anymore. Althought it's "seasoned", it's not like that "black" cast iron skillet your mom has. It takes time to get it to "black" which is when it is really good!

Its cast iron. Which means things won't stick if you season it correctly. No other coating on inside. Enamel is on the exterior, not cooking surface
