Gotham Steel Pans Reviews

I had first purchased my pan and it worked great for about three months. I went and bought more various sizes and purchased pots and oven crispers and cookie sheets. Well, two pans stick, one pot is scratched on the bottom, and cookie sheets need parchment paper on them. Was I fooled for by a commercial. I will not buy anymore or recommend to customers. The chef endorsing them should be ashamed of himself.

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

SCAM. I bought this set from a retailer for my husband at Christmas. I was so excited to give it to him. He loves to cook. Everything sticks, and it was blackened after making pancakes. Eggs stick. I am extremely disappointed with this company. False advertising and a scam!

When ordering from Canada, it says it is shipped from Canada. Well, they charge you in USA funds. Ther is no mention of that in there advertising. After reading the reviews, I don't know how this company stays in business. My first and last time ordering anything from on the TV. I will be letting everyone know what a rip off this is. I am very disgusted. Never again.

I bought the 12.5-inch fry pan in July, and it worked great for about 30 days. By September, you could not fry potatoes in it. Scratches began showing up, and I did not use any metal items in the skillet. By October, it was sticking so bad that I had to throw it away.

OK, so the food does stick without adding any oil, BUT it requires FAR LESS oil that the typical pan requires, so that's why I gave it two stars. However, the company advertised that NO OIL was required, so it is false advertising.

I started out with cooking the onions, and the browning started to stick so I added one tablespoon of olive oil and it helped with making everything UNstick. Cooking went smoothly after that, with no additional oil needed. All the veggies added, including the eggs, cooked without needing more oil. So next time I'll try with one teaspoon of oil instead of one tablespoon. Typically I use about two to three tablespoons of oil when I use a regular non-stick pan, so I would have to say that if Gotham Steel only needs one teaspoon of oil to make everything unstick for the whole meal, then that's an improvement.

Still, it is false advertising saying that no oil is needed.

My experience with this company's pans is very disappointing. First of all, my wife ordered the two for one deal, but when I got the package, we received the whole instead at a cost almost $80.00. Well, my family says we need a new set of pans anyways, so let's keep the whole deal, even though it was there mistake. NOW, what my mistake was I should never have unpacked the large package until I tried the two pans out that were packed separately, only to find out this product is TERRIBLE! They stick like crazy. We got severely BURNED. My wife and are on a fixed income, and $80.00 is like $800.00. Thanks for the CRAP!

These products are horrible. Everything sticks, from pancakes to chicken. When I did the first seg of pancakes, the pot had turned black. And when I washed it, it did not come out. I do not recommend these products.

Well, I asked for the fry pan for Christmas, and I got it. The first time I used it everything worked perfectly. I used a paper towel to wipe out the bits, and everything was great. Now, after several uses, I am not quite so happy. I used it for fajitas and had a bit of the sauce sticking, but again the clean up went well.

Today for lunch my husband and I were having fried eggs. I turned on my electric stove and broke four eggs into the pan. Almost immediately I could see a thin layer of brown forming under the eggs. I turned down the heat as I thought the temperature was too high. When I went to flip my eggs, they were stuck to the pan and they broke up into a messy looking pile. I removed from them heat entirely. The pan has a film in it, all crispy. It will clean up okay, but the eggs were overcooked and ugly.

I was coming online to find out what I was doing wrong. I have been cooking for 65 years. I guess I got taken. So sad that companies will abuse people so obviously. I will never buy from Gotham again.

This is another example of bogus claims by a manufacturer. This frying pan worked as advertised for about three months, which just so happens to be the length of their guarantee. After approximately seven months of medium usage, food now sticks to the pan worse than my regular pans, and I now have to soak this pan in steaming hot water for 15 minutes or so for it to come clean. Do not waste your hard earned money on this piece of junk.

I purchased one thinking that finally a pan that will not stick much, and to my surprise, it is a scam. Even using oil and low heat is sticks. I don't mind paying the price for something that is good, but after paying $29.00 plus tax for garbage, I am not impressed. Just before Christmas, a shopper was going to purchase for his wife, and my husband said they are a waste of money, so he said thank you. I don't know why they put all this misinformation on the market and scam us out of our money!

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

EVERYTHING sticks to this pan. The business model is to replace the pan with you paying the "shipping and handling." Guess what that costs? Oh, about $25, the price of a new pan!

This pan is NOT non stick. It is horrible! Want pictures to prove it? I will gladly provide them.

Don't waste your money on this.
