Nonstick pan that will change your life

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This nonstick pan has transformed my cooking routine! It’s incredibly easy to clean—eggs slid right off without any oil or butter. I even tried making pancakes, which usually stick, and I was amazed at how easily they released from the pan. I wasn't expecting it to be this effortless! I received the product through Influenster, so I’m not sure about the price, but I highly recommend this pan!
I was really excited to discover the Alva brand. I have been a user of other purportedly nontoxic cookware for many years. I do believe that Alva is as close as you can get to the most nontoxic nonstick cookware available. The performance thus far has been stellar. My one MAJOR issue is that the coating on the outside of the pans is extremely fragile. I have absolutely babied these pans over the few weeks that I have had them (I bought 3). The coating is chipped and scratched already and even just from gently scrubbing a trail of dripped food from the side. I use only nonabrasive materials. This is really not good, considering how much these pans cost. I don't know if this is unusual, or if the coatings on the outside are4 really that fragile.
this pan is the perfect size to use for just about everything. In fact, I have a similar style pan that’s cast-iron that I use every single day. I love it, but I’m really happy to have this nonstick version. This is one of three pans I purchased, and it is beautiful, pretty heavy duty, but not too heavy to pick up and really well made. So far, I am extremely happy with my purchase and I hope that all three of the pants I bought last for a long time. However, I am very realistic about how even the best nonstick will wear out after a couple of years.
We bought two of these last July. Although one has held up pretty well, the other not so much. It worked great for a few months, but now everything sticks to it despite following proper care, cooking and cleaning instructions. Do NOT recommend.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this pan!! The Maestro Nonstick Skillet is the most easiest frying pan to take care of. No scraping or scrubbing to clean. Wipe with soft rag or sponge, with soap and water, towel dry and that's it. You do have make sure it's well centered on the eye on your drive, after that it cooks well. I've cooked meat, eggs and fries. Very simple. No stickling whatsoever so ever. The only draw back is you definitely have to watch the handles on the skillet. They do get hot
