Induction readyAlanMoving to induction stove-had to transition to new cookware. Seasoning was a breeze5
Perfect for Glass TopLindasince I cannot use my cast iron on our glass top range, this pan was the perfect compromise. It has been a difficult transition from gas ranges. But this pan can do top to oven and even subs as a wok for glass top range. I hope to go back for more in the VARDAGEN series
I Love this Pan! 5
Nice little panBonnieNice little pan5
fun BrookThis is great for making an egg or melting butter. 5
carbon steel BrookI love this pan, I use it nearly every day. It's a great size and so much lighter than cast iron. I've got all three pans in this range if they make a braiser I'll get that too5
Strong and stylishPaulThis is going to last forever…. Strong, heavy, well built.5
Love the pan!ElenaNice looking, very good for cooking!5
great alternative to cast ironDonnaI love that this is lighter than cast iron. I am a carbon steel convert. You do need to season to make it non-stick but it will last a lifetime unlike ceramic pans.5
Quality!CarlaLove this! Now I want a bigger one! Very nice quality!5
Was greatRachelI loved this pan but it warped :( I have an electric stove so it just spins/slides everywhere and is like a wobbly table at a restaurant when I try to cook in it.3
Coating coming offMicheleI received this a few days ago. The packaging - plastic bag was stuck to the bottom of the pan. I pulled it off and it left a pattern - thought it was sticky but after washing found that the plastic removed the coating (found that strange) but I still washed it. After washing with dawn, the same type of spots appeared in the inside. Looking at it I could see that the coating seems to be coming off. I was going to season it to see if it would change but I think I'm going to cut the experience short and return the pan - as I see others had issues with the coating as well.2
Black coating came off after 3rd useLucyI don’t understand why even though I followed the directions to the “t” and seasoned the pan as instructed, after my third use all the black coating on the bottom of the pan came off. Is this dangerous if I eat some by accident? Is the pan still able to be used? Thank you for your advice.1
What a great pan!DaveI love nothing more than a big black 9” pan and this one doesn’t disappoint. Well-made with a stiff handle, I’m able to cook everything to nice brown color just how I like it. This isn’t a nonstick pan, you have to season and oil it, it’s not that difficult.5
Now I love this pan!DianeInitially I gave this a bad review and I want to correct it. I didn't realize that it needed to be "seasoned" several times. I was past the return window so I stubbornly re-seasoned until it is now a pan that I love! I can even do over easy eggs in it.. I highly recommend seasoning until it is glazed - Do not expect it to be uniform in color.4
perfect little egg panGeoffWanted a small pan for eggs, and this works well.5
Great valueJameGreat pan at a good price5
Great Pan!SueNot too heavy, but holds heat well. Great size and easy to clean.5
Love the fact that it can last long time.EnriqueIt is just a plain carbon steel. No chemical product on top to make it non stick. It is very deep. There is no lid, but I can find a used one cheap.
Also, this item is made in Brasil, not in China like most of IKEA’s cookware.5
