[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Greenpan Rio Ceramic Frypans are awesome. When they arrived my first thought was "oh these are going to burn". To my surprise they were a treat to cook with. Everything just slides ride out. No burning, no sticking. Overall a phenomenal set.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the GreenPan Rio Ceramic Nonstick Frypan Set, 8” & 10” and I love them they work great nothing sticks at all. All the frying pans that I have ever bought that say nonstick have never worked
BEWARE! The pan part works well, love the light interior so I can see how much browning is happening. But the handles have a fatal design flaw: they burn! The metal part is so short that no matter what size burner you are on (we have a gas stove) the plastic burns and emits nasty fumes. Happens on both pans. At least I have learned to never buy a pan without a metal handle for at least half of the handle. These are flat out dangerous. They are also bulky and don't nest well for storage, but that is minor compared to the burnt handle. Sorry, GreenPan. Love your concept, but this pan needs to be fixed or pulled from the market. Wish I could return these and find some with metal handles.
I thought I had finally found the pan that doesn’t stick. Fast forward 6 months and I’m back to where I started... everything sticking and the coating is coming off. Yes, I cook with low heat (not higher than 5) and yes, I am extremely careful with my pans and I take good care of them. I’m disappointed in the quality and I’m tired of having to discard pans - truly a waste of resources. I am done trying these out and I will be sticking with my cast iron.
I picked up a Green Pan at the grocery store not realizing it would be the best pan I've ever used. I made the mistake of confusing "Green Life" for Green Pan, but there is no substitute for a real Green Pan. The only cookware I'll ever buy.
I bought this pan about a month ago and ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. The nonstick surface is just wonderful, food slides right out. AND it's EXTREMELY easy to clean. I bought it to try it out as I had tried several other brands of pans, but wasn't satisfied. This pan WOW, it far exceeded my expectations. Am planning on buying the entire collection now. Thank you Green Pan for making me one HAPPY cook.
I have a 12" Rio and love it. It has held up well. This 10", not so much.
I recently put a lid on it and noticed the lid didn't sit flat on the rim of the pan. It rocked back and forth. I checked the lid for flatness on my counter top. It wasn't the lid.
The bottom of the pan is still flat. Very odd. The pan has never been in the oven, or subjected to high heat. Sadly, the non-stick finish is like new, but the pan is mostly useless due to not being able to use a lid.
I guess it's time to see if their limited lifetime warranty is any good.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works great! So easy to clean. It is very easy to use ..nothing sticks. Looks like new no matter how many times I use it, cooks very well... I will definitely buy more green pans when I need them.
