Anolon X Hybrid 10 inch Nonstick Induction Frying Pan, Graphite

I originally bought the saucier, having never used one before. Greatest thing since sliced bread. And it was on an incredible special as well so I was chuffed. Then this Saute and saucier came up as a twofer special so I jumped at it. The saucier is lighter than I imagined yet the Saute is slightly heavier. I have arthritis and have had surgeries on both hands but am able to handle these two easily enough. I tried cast iron cookware and just can’t handle it safely as it’s too heavy. I do appreciate I got very lucky to buy three absolutely brilliant pieces of cookware at an unbelievable price. I’m having a blast cooking up a storm, the husband thinks it’s great as well and I finally got the courage to try making risotto and the saucier is what makes it absolutely perfect. These pieces are fantastic. Highly recommend them.

I've used Analon products for many years and have always found them to be of good quality and long lasting. I wanted to try the newest fry pans with the searing ability. They work just as stated and are very easy to clean if you follow instructions and put hot soapy water in them as soon as you take your food out.

I purchased these sauté pans at the urging of my husband and I am so glad I did. They are everything they are advertised to be. The one thing I never bargained on, however, was that they don’t splatter much! What a plus. They sear so well, fry an egg splendidly and veggies are a dream. I just ordered the 12.5” and hope it will be just as good. You will not be disappointed.

I use my AnolonX pans anytime I want a good sear on meat. This is the case every time I use sous vide to make steaks, chops, etc where I want a really good, quick sear that provides a nice crust. Most standard non-stick pans can't do this properly, The oil runs to the side on those, but not the AnolonX. And it withstands higher temps making for a good quality sear. I've used these skillets for other things too, and they do just fine. But when I need a good sear, I turn to the AnolonX.

I'd been looking at the Hexclad pans for months as well as an Analon set of frying pans (which didn't have the stainless steel hi-lo mesh/induction) and so was very pleased to see these on sale. We like them both for how well they are made as well as the searing ability they offer. They do have an engineered "dimple" in the middle of the pans to hold oil there and this is a brilliant solution to having oil run towards the outside. They clean up easily, the eggs don't stick (when you let the pan heat up properly) and they feel very solid in hand. The only thing I could wish for is more coverage up the sides of the stainless steel disk on the bottom, but I know that would make these pans heavier (I have the 12" version of these pans and it is indeed a bit too heavy already). In short, I hope to be cooking with these pans for many years to come.

First off I have worked in professional kitchens for over 50 years. I know pots and pans. For a family kitchen these pans are quite nice. But the cooking surface of both pans are small compared to other brand pans of the same size. I had been thinking about buying the 12 inch skillet but now I’m not so sure Also food does stick to these pans so clean up is not as easy as you claim. I’ve only use them a few times and they are already discolored

I think they are acceptable, they are not exactly what I thought they would be or at least what they are advertised to be. I think the fact that they don't scratch is the major thing but food does still stick to the tiny metal edges in there. But overall I will purchase more I just wish the advertising would be more truthful about the food sticking.

I bought the 10" and the 8" combo frying pans a few weeks ago, it sears a ribeye steak nicely as well my burgers came out with crispy edges and deliciously juicy inside. But the reason I purchased the pans was to fry eggs in the morning for my 3 kids and myself. The downside is that the eggs got stuck on the bottom of the pan while fry them. You can't make over easy and if it's sunny side up eggs you will need to crisp the bottom in order to remove them. I don't mind crispy on the bottom of my eggs but if you need to flip the eggs over for over medium eggs then you will need to crisp them again to remove the egg without breaking apart. Very disappointed for the price. I'm looking to purchase a nonstick pan elsewhere just for eggs.

I purchased and ordered 2 frying pans 30DEC2022. When ordering I was given an estimated delivery date of between 7 and 10 JAN. The order shipped 18JAN2023. I left town 11JAN2023 and will return 12FEB. I will not be able to access them before then. I am disappointed it took so long to ship. I reserve judgement util I actually use them.

After purchasing & using these fry pans, and knowing what i know now, i wouldn't have purchased these pans. It's my personal opinion they are very heavy, handles get hot and the food gets stuck in the triangles which are not smooth to the touch. The marketing of the triangle inner bottom is a cooking gimmick. I had two previous sets of Anolon cookware which were very very good, but these are junk and priced way to high, another gimmick....Also, they will not accept returns or exchanges. Another poor issue.
