Gotham Steel Pans Reviews

I was given this as a gift and from the first time I used it, everything sticks to it. After three uses it has scratches, and the bottom of the pan was discolored, and I will never use it again. They said they will replace it, but I have to pay another $9.95 for processing and handling. It's defective, and I have to be the one to pay more money? That's a scam.

During the first few uses, this pan was good. I recently tried to brown something not using any oil or anything like the instructions tell you, and now I have a permanent burn mark on the pan that I can't get off. I have tried soaking it and read to use lemon juice and salt, which took off a few spots, but what is left is charred and has stains that will not go away. Don't believe all the hype about this pan.

This doesn't work. Eggs do not slide off, but they stick instead. It is not worth the money.

I bought the 12.5" Ti-ceramic fry pan at Bed Bath & Beyond. I brought the pan back because of the high spot on the pan's bottom. During the first time cooking, I just barely touched a spatula to the pan and the pan swung around 180°.

It does not make flat contact with the glass top stove. This makes for inefficient heat exchange and is unsafe. I returned it to Bed Bath & Beyond, but the second pan has the same problem and I will be returning that for a cash refund. I have a 9.5" square pan being delivered, and I hope it's better quality.

This was a waste of $45, which I bought at HomeSence. After a few uses, the pan warped and burnt and became not nonstick. Now everything burns to the pan and won't clean off. I have never used anything but a soft silicone spatula and a soft dish rag on it but it chipped. The same thing happened to my mom's pan. I went on their Canadian Facebook page, and lots of others have had bad experiences with the pans.

I purchased three sizes of the Gotham Steel Pans and the food sticks to them all. Eggs become fuzzed to the bottom and end up having to be scrambled.

I am very disappointed in this product. I feel bad that I talked my daughter into purchasing them as well. I have tried cooking at all different temperatures, and it makes no difference. When I cooked peameal bacon, the service ended up with a thick black crust on it and even soaking it in hot water would not remove it. I purchased these pans at Giant Tiger in Midland, Ontario, Canada.

I was given the frying pan for Christmas 2016, and it was purchased at a Canadian Tire store. Even though they advertise otherwise, the pan scratched and does not eliminate the use of Pam. The eggs came right off the first two times I used the pan, but after that you need Pam, and the pan will need to be scraped just like any other. This is not a non-stick pan, and it scratches if used with a metal spatula. You cannot beat eggs right in the pan.

I am very, very dissatisfied with the product and would not recommend it.

I have owned this pan since September, and it worked like advertised for 3-4 months. I purchased my pan at Bed Bath & Beyond. Now everything sticks. Do not waste your money.

It didn't work as advertised.

My husband likes to use metal forks, knives, and spoons while cooking. And from the first time he used a fork and small scratches showed up, after that nothing worked on the frying pan as they advertised. So, I mean, it is not scratch-proof at all. It cannot stand even very small scratches. Everything stuck to the frying pan, no matter what we cooked. And it is not damage-proof either. My husband (by accident) bent it a little bit, and that was it. I had to throw away the pan.

So, when they are saying it is non-stick and scratch-proof, it is a big, bad lie!

I bought one of the Gotham Steel Pans off the TV ad. It was a 10" one. I got it and was so amazed at how good it worked that I went to Walmart and bought a 12" one. They lasted three months, and that is it.

The coating starts coming off, there were scratches all over the coating, and everything sticks. I tried putting spray coating on before using, and things still stuck, especially eggs. Fried or scrambled, it doesn't matter. They both stuck, so I tried putting some oil on them, but the eggs still stuck. So I tried curing them again.

I finally gave up and don't use them anymore. If someone wants them, I'll send them to you for free.

Just cooking cheese and a flour tortilla did this pan in.

I loved the pan the first few times I used it, but then just cooking up some cheese and a flour tortilla caused all kinds of smoke and burning. I am not the worst cook in America, and the top layer of the pan burned. At first, I thought it was the cheese, but I can't for the life of me scrub off the blackened pan bottom, and it no longer has the nonstick texture to it. I never used metal utensils with it, only a rubberized spatula.

There was smoke everywhere. My kitchen looked like the morning fog came in and it stunk. Good thing my smoke detector is not in the kitchen. Although it should be.
