Gotham Steel Pans Reviews

A total waste of money. Buy the cheapest Teflon on Amazon, and you’ll be much happier. Don't waste your money!

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I have two of these pans, and stuff, eggs, you name it, stick to the pans, Teflon pans I have are far better. I am thinking about sending pictures to our state attorney generals office and have them sue them into bankruptcy.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Works good for about two weeks. I then try frying a very lean piece of hamburger meat in the pan. It sticks to the pan and does not clean up. Cheese also sticks. It does not clean up at all. I am sorry I bought these fry pans. These pans are just a piece of junk.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

In our family, we had three pans in three different households. Each had the exact same experience with Gotham pans. They last 90 days before becoming just another failed "non-stick" pan.

No wonder the guarantee is for 90 days!

I am very disappointed in this product and company.

I like the pan. I really do. Shortly (three weeks) after receiving it, I'm getting an email every other day that look exactly like the below, sent from billing@autobillpayer.com:

Subject: GOTHAM STEEL COOKWAR - File # xxxxxxxx (obscured for privacy just in case)

Body:

Dear xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx,

Please call 8664414731 regarding the GOTHAM STEEL COOKWAR you received on 05/27/2018. This is a toll free number for your convenience as this e-mail domain does not accept response e-mails. Your file number is xxxxxxxx.

Sincerely,

Billing Department

The number seems to go to some place that doesn't identify themselves, just says "Thank you for calling, we are closed. Please call back during our normal business hours of 8 am to 9 pm."

Uh, it's 7 pm Eastern right now. I tried to find the number, and I found a BBB Report for AB ROCKET listing this number.

My bottom line is: Gotham Steel is NOT secure. My information, including my name, has been stolen or sold to some hackers. The email looks like a Nigerian bank scam. It isn't legit. The email address isn't them, obviously. But they have my full name. The "File Number" they reference isn't anything to do with my order number.

Second bottom line: DO NOT do business with this company if you value your security!

I just bought it at Walmart to try right away, and it gets sticky, I try the hamburger, and the same problem.

Why? It was made cheap by a China company, they copy everything, the look is nice, but nothing inside.

So please, do not buy Gotham Steel Pans or any product made in China, unless you know the product.

We purchased two pans and loved them at first. After several uses, they stick so bad it's ridiculous. Cleaning is a nightmare. I soak and scrub and then soak some more. Everything sticks. I do not use these pans unless I have to. I will never purchase them again.

I bought the larger 12" Gotham Steel Pan. It worked beautifully FOR ABOUT A MONTH. Then, with daily use, everything started to stick to it. I never used EVOO or any "spray" oils because those WILL ruin a nonstick surface. I also never used it on any higher heat than MEDIUM because high heat will ruin a nonstick finish. I never used metal utensils so all precautions were made even though they advertise you can use a hand mixer in it.

A few weeks after it started sticking, EVERYTHING stuck and had to be scraped off, so I had to keep soaking it in water. I even tried using Bar Keepers Friend to clean it, but it didn't help.

Since I was ready to throw the pan out, I decided to try using a metal spatula - YES, it most certainly scratched the pan! That was it - the pan went into the trash!

Don't be fooled by their advertisement! The pan is no better than any other non-stick pan. The more you use it, the more it STOPS being non-stick!

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

This is the biggest scam of the century! I was told that this is a non-stick surface pan and it was purchased for me since I seem to burn everything I attempt to cook. Lies, lies, lies. Do not waste your money on this item. I have done EVERYTHING stated in the directions with three of these products and I always get the same result. EVERYTHING STICKS. With or without butter, oil, etc.

And as far as washing clean, LOL, not happening here. The non-stick surface has a black resin that will not come off! Even after scrubbing the dang thing a billion times. If anyone else has this problem and has not complained, well that would be a fricken miracle. Thank you.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

These pans are junk! They do not distribute the heat evenly. I turned up the heat to sear my scallops and the pan warped.

I used it a total of five times and threw it in the trash!

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

It is a waste of money to buy such crap. The makers are liars, they should be convicted and sent to jail. Please do not buy this crap, don't get fooled looking at the TV advertisement. People should complain to the Better Business Bureau.
