Anolon X Hybrid 3.5 qt Nonstick Induction Saute Pan With Lid

Absolutely a must in the kitchen for me know. You can shallow fry, deep fry and stir fry with it without oil splash on the cook plates since the pan has decent depth; apart from that the flat wide bottom has made cooking evenly heated, particularly when stir fries. I replaced this with the traditional wok which looks a bit out of date for my kitchen. Thanks Anolon for such an up to date product.

This is the second of these X hybrid pans I've bought. The surface is brilliant from browning a meats like finishing a sous vide steak. Take care that its not a traditional non-stick surface so not suited for very delicate foods like frying eggs. Can highly recommend their traditional non-stick pans for those tasks

Better than before! The new pans heat evenly due to the stainless base plate. The stainless web browns quite well. I had the normal pans for over 15 years and expect these frying pans to last as well. No metal utensils/no cooking spray/no leaving the pan alone to burn.

These pans are great for keeping in oil in the center! I was soo tired o rolling my pans back and forth to get oil in the center or use way more that I needed! This pan is soo easy to clean & cooks anything. Browning sausage, steak etc, there’s nothing like it! I’m buying the crepe & 12” next! TY

I purchased the 8.25 & 10 inch pans especially for searing steaks after hot-bath cooking. Although I have not had the chance to try them out, I did use the smaller pan to reheat some quesadillas whose outer shell had become soft and soggy. Very excited they became crispy once again and the inside cheese melted without burning the shells...and the cheese that ran out and appeared to be stuck in the little "grates" peeled right off. Can't wait to try steaks during the holidays!

I used one of my new skillets for the first time tonight, and I am totally impressed. It put a nice sear on my cubed steaks, and nothing stuck to the pan. I was able to turn them using only a fork, and that has never happened with my other pans. These do exactly as they are advertised, and I plan to get more in the future. They are worth every cent.

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

Well I was really excited to get these pans, the first time I tried them, I made pancakes and it was a disaster. They stuck to the pan (I used oil) and I had to switch to an old pan to make them. I did try them out for fried chicken and they worked well.

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.
