A great quality pan!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using this pan for over a month now and I absolutely love it! It’s very sleek and has a nice weight to it, it definitely feels like it’s good quality. It cooks anything from eggs to veggies to meat like a dream! Plus it cleans up really well.

Stainless steel

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It performs well! Had to get used to stainless steel pans and waiting for it to heat up completely so the food doesn’t stick but overall nice and thick pan! I love using bf stainless steel pans for my family knowing no toxins like in other pans!

Learn how to use it
on February 13, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this pan overall, but there was definitely a learning curve at first. When I first started using it, everything kept sticking and I was honestly frustrated. After doing a little research, I realized stainless steel needs to be preheated properly before adding oil and food. Now I let the pan heat up for a few minutes, then add oil, let the oil heat, and then add my food. Since doing that, it cooks beautifully and gives a really nice sear. Heat distribution is even and it feels very sturdy and high quality.
The only downside for me is cleaning. If something sticks, it can take some soaking and scrubbing to get it fully clean. It’s not impossible, but it does require a little extra effort compared to nonstick pans. Overall though, once you learn how to use it correctly, it’s a great pan.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this pan for one pan dishes. Super easy to cook with and clean after. The size I have has been large enough for all the dishes I made with this pan and I can also put it in to the dishwasher. Highly recommend!

Easier to cook with than other stainless pans I’ve
on April 16, 2026
Posted by: MelanieJ
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this pan for a few months now. It heats up evenly and food sticks less to it than my other stainless steel pans so I prefer to use it over those. The picture is after four rounds of smaller pancakes made in the pan with only one application of olive oil, whereas my other pans I had to keep adding oil or butter or it’s definitely going to stick. The handle is attached only on the outside and after having this option, I don’t know why all pans don’t do this. My other pans ALWAYS have food stuck around the rivets , this one doesn’t have that and it’s amazing.
