I bought the Copper Chef for $75.00 and loved it for the first 30 days. I told everyone how great it was and used nearly every day for everything. Then spare ribs burned on. I thought "no problem," it would just slide out. Not so.
I boiled it, and some came out but not all. I soaked it. Finally, I managed to get the burned on mess cleaned out of the pan. After that, I noticed everything began to catch on, the metal heating ring on the bottom rose up to create a dome in the center of the pan, the copper finish along the edges where the lid sits was scratching off, and the inside of the pan lost its finish.
Finally, after several months, I called to tell someone at Copper Chef about this and was told I could get a discount on another pan. So much for a lifetime warranty.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
