Great pans - best nonstick I've used
592499
I have purchased several of these pans in different sizes for myself and as gifts.  So far I'm very happy with them after about six months of use.  I've seen some other reviews that say the non-stick surface wears off or becomes sticky after just a few uses.  This has not been my experience at all.

Like any non-stick pan, it needs to stay clean in order to work.  Your egg won't stick to the pan, but it will certainly stick to the gunk you didn't wash off from the last use.  Wash it properly with a normal sponge and dish soap.  It is best to wash when the pan is warm, either right after using it or warm it up a bit on the stove just before washing.  Not enough to burn your hands, but enough to liquefy any fat left in the pan.  Left-over oils in the pan are bad for non-stick surfaces if you don't wash them out completely because they break down and become very sticky after repeated heating and cooling.  Washing when the pan is warm makes it much easier to get all this gunk off.  Avoid cooking sprays.  They are basically just very low quality cooking oil in an aerosol can, and this low-quality oil with a very low smoke point will build up sticky gunk real fast.  If you look very closely at your pans you may see a brownish film.  It's harder to see on black pans but easy to see on lighter colors.  That's your sticky gunk layer.  Use animal based fat (ideally butter or lard) or high quality vegetable oil, such as olive or coconut.  Wash right after use and you'll never get sticky buildup ruining your non-stick surface.  And your food will taste better.

Other reviews also said they started seeing scratches and pits in the non-stick surface.  Again, I have not seen this, even after a lot of use.  Of course don't use metal implements in them and don't clean with an abrasive cleaner.  Everyone knows that.  But also be mindful of what you do after you clean the pan.  Do you klunk it into a dish rack with lots of other stuff?  When dry, do you stack it with lots of other pans and lids in a cabinet?  Non-stick surfaces can easily get damaged here.  Try drying it right after washing and hang it from a pot rack.  These pans are attractive enough to hang in open view and pot racks are great for efficiently storing lots of pots and pans.  It goes without saying never to put it in the dishwasher!  You have no idea how much abuse a dishwasher can "dish" out.

I can corroborate one complaint in other reviews - the handle on one of my pans has come a bit loose.  It is riveted, and I don't think it will get any looser, and it is not bad enough to be a problem.  But it doesn't feel right in your hand when you hold it.  Ozeri would be well served to improve on the handle attachment.

Overall, I highly recommend these pans.  For the price, they are the best I've ever used.

Very nice set of pans for the price...  I have been using these for several months now and really like them.  Easy to cook, nothing sticks to them (I always use olive oil spray tough) and they are easy to clean too.

I rarely hand wash anything. These pans are so awesome I hand wash them. They have even heating and the non-stick is fabulous. My only gripe is the handle is a bit awkward but that could be fixed by putting one of those covers on it. And the price is good too. I can't think of any reason to not get them.

Quality and quite nonstick

I bought a "Scanpan Classic 11-Piece Deluxe Cookware Set" in 2007, and they have been great non stick pans, serving me well for nearly a decade.

Even with a lifetime warranty, I can't expect the skillet's nonstick surface to last forever.
My SO doesn't know how to cook on low heat and we abused the heck out of them.
My fry and sautee pan from that series have lost quite a bit of their ceramic coating and were no longer non stick.

So I figured I'd invest in something that I know would last a life time.  A skillet that can't be destroyed, dishwasher safe, etc.
Enter the CSX series.

I picked up the 10.25" fry pan, which is the perfect size for cooking bacon and eggs.

It is super great, beautiful, and has a comfortable handle.  I've had no major problems with sticking (teaching her how to cook with proper heat), and cleaning it is a breeze.
I actually use a "The Ringer Cast Iron Cleaner XL 8x6 Inch Stainless Steel Chainmail" to scrub clean it when needed.

It heats evenly and maintains heat (as evidenced when I pour sink water in it to steam clean it, and it boils for quite some time).

I had also bought a "DeBuyer Mineral B Element Iron Frypan, Round" carbon steel skillet as well, but she must have put it in the dish washer as it's all rusted now.  So I think I'll buy a second CSX fry pan.  These things will last a lifetime with no maintenance needed.

This is the best nonstick pan I've found and at a very reasonable price.  I've tried many nonstick pans including very expensive ones and they all get ruined after a couple of years even though I take extremely good care of them. That means washing them carefully by hand with a soft sponge, separating them from other pans while in storage with foam or paper towels, and not using metal utensils with them.  My first set of Slip Stones lasted almost two years just like the extremely expensive ones, except at a fraction of the cost. And they're not completely useless because I can still use them when I have to fry something on very high heat like bacon. The expensive ones were only good for the trash after one or two years. The instructions say not to use high heat as this can damage them, so I'm thinking my new set should last even longer than two years because I won't be frying bacon in them. I always use oil except with bacon of course, from my experience it's just not practical not to.

I have been using these pans for several weeks now and absolutely LOVE them! They are very high quality, heavy, cast aluminum with a 100% ceramic non-stick coating (no harmful toxins). They clean like a dream -- absolutely nothing sticks!

They also have a unique honeycomb, textured surface which helps distribute the heat and cook food evenly. So, no more hot spots in the center of your pan. I cooked an omelet over the weekend and it was, literally, the best, most fluffy one I've ever made.

I also love that the handles won't get hot (especially useful when you have multiple burners going).

Fantastic set and the price can't be beat! An easy 5 stars

These are the best non-stick pans I have ever used.  They clean up very easily.  I have purchased Swiss Diamond pans twice and would buy them again if needed.

These are the best nonstick pans Ive ever owned, hands down. They perform better than our Le Creuset, Cuisinart, and Circulon pans and seem very durable. The fact that they're dishwasher safe is an added bonus. Very happy with this purchase.

I just love my new baking pans there non stick & they really do work great. I didn't use any oil or flour in them & they just came out so easy.

these are fantastic pans.  very inexpensive, but durable and and seem to be lasting quite well.  I've used one or the other just about every morning for the last year + and the non-stick surface is still going strong.

My favorite pans!  Professionally made.  Non-stick..really non-stick.  Super easy to clean.  I can use metal utensils and also pour cold water into the pan without ruining.  I have 2 pans, and I use both every day.  I threw all those other "non-stick" pans away.  They just don't compare.

I'm a line cook in fine dining restaurants, and i LOVE these pans. Theyre heavy in a good-quality kind of way, oven and dishwasher safe, nonstick, and distribute heat really evenly.
Having nice pans can make a world of difference in your cooking, and these are NICE pans for a really great price. I would buy 5 more of these if I needed them. I'll be buying all-clad pans for the rest of my life, that's for sure.

I've never understood reviews of products like this after a week (or less) or owning/using the product.  ALL non-stick pans work in the first week, I'm interested in how these hold up after months and years of use.

I've had these over a year now.  I cook with them regularly, using each fry pan at least twice a week.  I maintain them as the manual recommends, storing them properly and seasoning them occasionally.  I don't use metal utensils with the cookware.  I hand-wash them using a soft sponge or scrubber.

Over a year later, they are still incredible. The non-stick quality is as good as the day I first used them.  I burned the 8 inch fry pan in the first month of use, but cleaned and re-seasoned it immediately and it was back to new.

These are excellent pots and pans that will last if you take care of them.

I have used teflon (ew!), All Clad and a number of others over the years. I have been an amateur cook for the past eighteen or twenty years and these are by far my favorite. You don't need to use any oil, nothing ever sticks. I use oil sometimes for flavoring or browning, but I only a small amount and I frequently forgo the oil altogether. Eggs, pancakes, chicken, you name it, it won't stick (even without oil).

Beyond the amazing non-stick properties, these pans cook SO evenly, I very impressed by their performance. Rivals the heat pattern you find on grilled cheese and pancakes at restaurants. Awesome pans. I was so impressed, I bought a set for my dad for Christmas.

Best pans I have ever owned. Truly non stick and easy to clean. Just rinse off after use. I love that I can leave these pretty pans out on the stove top since we cook eggs for breakfast everyday. I was expecting my husband to give me crap for buying trendy blue pans but as soon as he saw how awesome they work he was sold too.

Really love these pans--lovely color, functional design, weight is nicely balanced, and the nonstick is superb. I rarely write reviews, but I really like everything about them.
