Bought it together with a bigger NW House Bundt Pan and made a whole Xmas village for the kids this year.
It worked out grreat, since the gingerbread house now became edible!
I had absolutely no problem getting my house out of the mold.
I just sprayed it with a non stick olive oil spray from Trader Joe's and it came out fine (no butter, no flour as some reviewers had to do).

I USED SQUARE SANDWICH BREAD (WHICH I BUTTERED ON THE OUTSIDE), SHARP CHEDDAR CHEESE WHICH WHEN IT HEATED CAME OUT ALL OVER THE SANDWICH MAKER. WHEN I CAME BACK AFTER IT WAS COOLED THE CHEESE WAS SO STUCK ALL OVER THE DAMN MACHING IT WOULD HAVE HAD TO BE SCRAPED  OFF. THIS IS A JOKE AND NOT WORTH MY TIME.

It is  a very good product for spraying your own olive oil on a pan or on vegetables for roasting or putting a final touch on baking in the oven. I have bought several (the Plastic one) for presents as well which contain more oil than this but I melted my last one by leaving next to a very high BTU gas burner. This one contains less liquid but it does not melt like the plastic

The description. "Ceramic-Tech non-stick coating allows for easy clean up. Cook without butter or oil."  The reality...this pan seemed non-ish stick in the first few uses.  It wasn't a great pan but seemed OK.  After fewer than four months it now exhibits  rare extra-stick properties I never desired.  Do you want to use large amounts of oil and still have your fish fillets turn into minced fish slivers then this is your pan.  Do you like your chicken with the lovely flavor of blackened chicken crisps...this is your huckleberry.  If you want a a decent non-stick pan on which you can create a nice meal...run...run for the hills.

OK, followed instructions exactly as written. This does not spray. It just sputters and spits. Period. So, I called sbd they sent me a new pump. The olive oil just sputters but, good news, Canola oil works great! So, I bumped my opinion up to three. I can live with the Canola. Great customer service.

I filled it with oil only (no herbs) and never could get it to spray out. It would just dribble down the neck of the spray knob. The only way to use the oil from it was to wipe the nozzle off with a paper towel and smear that on the food. So disappointed!

Just a dab will do. A little greasy at first, but once soaked in it is fine.

I sprayed it with PAM and cooked turkey bacon and it stuck and I had many little pieces of bacon when it was done.  I am not happy that it doesn't have a non stick surface

Absolutely, NOT NON-STICK!  I used it one time and was pleased with it.  That was the one and ONLY time!  I didn't use high heat, only medium and I washed it gently by hand.  Not in the dishwasher.  The next time I used it, salmon filets (which had been brushed generously with oil) stuck like glue and left flesh coated to the bottom.  Results the next time I tried it.  Even hamburger buns stuck.  Just taking up space in my cabinet and I need to toss it out as I cannot image it being useful to cook anything.  Too bad because it is really lovely to look at.

I was impressed with this frying pan the very first day i got it... because it was very smooth and shiny, not to mention that the foods slide out very easy without troubles.
5 days later i was making bacon and eggs and the strangest thing happened.. the entire cooking oil turned very foamy and the bacon was barely frying!! took me 10minutes to get it done when it should have taken me about 3minutes for 5 slices of bacon...

What is coming out of that frying pan? a synthetic resin? a strange unlisted substance? what ever it could be i still wouldnt recommend this

It said you did not need oil/butter with this, and that is absolutely not true! If you don't use some, eggs stick like glue! If I do use a little butter, then it is completely non-stick.

the pan was not joined properly, when you put no stick cooking spray in pan it leaks out, causing a mess !

This is an amazing cutting board! It has endured an year of regular use and it looks brand new.  I highly recommend deep oiling before using it and at least once every 4 months.

I highly recommend something like this:&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/XXL-Dish-Mat-23-quot-x-18-quot-LARGEST-MAT-Durable-Silicone-Dish-Drying-Pad-With-Stay-Clean-Scrubby-Anti-Bacterial-Dish-Washer-Safe-Heat-Resistant-Trivet-Grey/dp/B01FTKNX4K/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">XXL Dish Mat 23" x 18" (LARGEST MAT) Durable Silicone Dish Drying Pad With Stay Clean Scrubby | Anti-Bacterial, Dish Washer Safe | Heat Resistant Trivet | (Grey)</a>&nbsp;for better grip and and some air space underneath.

Oiling tips:
-The first time it readily absorbed the oil so to to do both sides it took 4 days; basically I just saturated the surface with food grade mineral oil and added as dry spots appeared.
- After the surface is sufficiently oiled, use a beeswax/oil mixtures to finish. I applied the cream directly to the surface and used a heat gun to melt the beeswax.

I tried baking chocolate chip cookies and kale chips. They came out great! I think it's heat up nicely and evenly. I put them in the dishwasher and it left marks after one wash. I don't really care how it looks. It just works great!

so easy, and soooooo good.  I feel like I'm cheating.  I think I should've left it in for longer but I couldn't resist.  I used coconut oil and it turned out fantastic but next time I'll try with butter.

I tried the pre-seasoning as the instruction showed, it's nonstick and really easy to clean, the lid was pretty useful too~

Just what I wanted, a ceramic non-stick. It's beautiful, quality is superb, far as I can tell, and the cost is perfect. I have used it, nothing stuck, cleaned beautifully, and I plan to buy more.  As a suggestion, try cooking at a lower heat with a light spray of coconut oil.  Oils are good for you, and you can use whatever non stick substance you like, without abusing the purpose of the pan.  High heat destroys nutrients and may overstep the ability of the appliance.  I could make my omelets stick to the pan too, but why overheat the food and pan, expecting the food to bounce off unscathed.
