Don't waste your money
on March 29, 2025
Posted by: Who cares
from Ohio
Been using this pan for all of a week and a half now? And already omelets are sticking to it even when using liberal amounts of oil or butter. I've only ever used silicone spatulas. This is actually the second pan to do this. I got one for Christmas and thought it was just a fluke. Won't be wasting my money on this company again

Stay Away - Everything sticks to this nonstick pan
on June 13, 2025

I bought the GreenPan Rio 2PK (8" and 11") Ceramic Nonstick Breakfast Set expecting a safe and reliable nonstick experience — but both pans became nearly unusable within months. Despite following all care instructions (low heat, no metal utensils, proper cleaning), the nonstick coating wore off, and everything sticks — eggs, pancakes, you name it. I tried their recommended “deep cleaning” methods, but nothing worked. The worst part is the customer care is not ready to listen to you, they just ask you to try a "proven" method which should just work. They wont budge if you tell them if you tried it already. Their warranty is a joke.
Do not waste your money. These pans are unreliable, hard to clean once they degrade, and don’t live up to the nonstick promise. Worse, I’m now concerned about possible health risks from deteriorating coating. Look elsewhere.

Great little pan

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great little pan. It is small and perfect for things like eggs, and smaller items. I love that you can use little to no oil or butter with it. I was a little concerned about all of the guidelines that this pan has and a little afraid I might forget some of them... like what not to let your oil heat to, make sure to hand wash, don't use spray oil. The handle and weight is nice, and the color (not a priority for the purchase) matches our kitchen.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome pan!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose to get this 5 quart saucepan because I needed something big enough for my family and I am so glad I did. I'm not to fond of nonstick cookware because of it eventually coming off and getting in my food but this pan is completely different and you can tell from the get go. The quality is superb. It can go from stovetop to oven. Mac-n-cheese just slides out. I am so a fan now and I'm anxious to get the set now!!! Kudos Greenpan, this pan is more than I planned for and I'm excited to try new things with it!!!

Easy cleanup

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great pan with easy cleanup. Its light weight so it doesn't feel too heavy in hand. The company advises you to keep the heat at medium or below to prevent the non-stick quality from degrading. So I'll probably end up just using the pan more for reheating food or simple dishes.

I’ve had this pan for about a month now, and it has become my favorite fry pan. I just love how things don’t stick and how easy it is to clean. I can even flip my pancakes with ease. I’m so glad I decided to purchase this pan because it was worth it and I see having it around for a very long time.

This Rio Collection has changed me completely in how I cook. I love the way the way the food slides right out and the food cooked in it is just delicious. I HIGHLY recommend Green Pan products. In my opinion, they are the Best on the market today.
