Disappointed

By Marla, Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, Verified Reviewer

I babied this pan from first use, and I never used metal instruments. At the beginning it was awesome. Clean up was a breeze. I must admit that I always use a little oil in cooking and did so when I used this pan. The eggs always came out perfect and slid out of the pan. I did notice that when I cooked sausages or fast-fry beef strips, that it stuck in the middle of the pan, but the side edges seemed to be ok.

I finally tried the pan without oil for eggs, and boy what a disappointment! You could see right away that it was sticking and I had to scrape the egg to turn it over. I thought that I had done something wrong, but after reading reviews of the pan, I now understand that it was not something I did, but it was the pan not being up to the standards that it was described to be.

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

Gotham Steel Pan is pure crap!

By Barry s., Irvine, CA, Verified Reviewer

I very rarely buy things from TV. It has been my experience that the "As Seen On TV" products are usually overpriced stuff that doesn't live up to their claims. When you see some of those commercials or infomercials, you say to yourself that you have got to get that. This was the first purchase that I made in approximately five years.

The commercial must have taken a long time to make because my experience was definitely not like the commercial. I wonder how many times they had to reshoot each segment?

I tried several foods, and most DID NOT just slide off the pan. I'm guessing that the pan will deteriorate as I use it more.

I should have read the reviews before I placed my order. It took about two weeks to get, which is reasonable. If I read the other low rated reviews, then I would never have ordered one.

Save your money and get something else. This is an overpriced pan that just doesn't work.

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

Fried eggs do not slide like commercial

By Ramon Arce, Springfield, MA, Verified Reviewer

I just purchased the entire set. I tried frying an egg (like in the commercial) without oil, and it just got stuck to the pan. The second time, I figured that maybe it wasn't hot enough and tried a second egg on a separate day, and to my surprise, this one got stuck to the pan, burning the egg. Probably if I fried a steak that already has plenty of fat itself, it wouldn't stick, but with the eggs, it was a total failure.

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

Gotham Steel cookware

By Mitch, London, Verified Reviewer

I don't understand the negative feedback on this cookware.

I bought a set at Christmas time and later added two more pieces because I was so pleased with the product. I have cooked eggs, steak, bacon, fried onions, peppers, mushrooms, and crepes, and have been very pleased with the results.

One of the benefits I found is that you don't need as much heat as standard cookware because they conduct heat so well. I used on an electric stove with no problems whatsoever. If you are having problems with this cookware, it is either defective, or you are doing something extremely wrong.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Very dissatisfied!

By Kathy Schreck, Riverside, CA, Verified Reviewer

This product does not clean as easily as shown; foods burn easily and scorch on the pain. Unless you wipe the pan when it is still very hot, immediately after it is removed from the fire/heat, it will not clean.

This is the worst set of pots and pans I have ever purchased and used. I strongly recommend that you not purchase Gotham Steel pots and pans.

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

Does stick, does scratch

By Bett Wils, Toronto, Canada, Verified Reviewer

This is the worst fry pan, even bacon sticks. They claim you don't need oil or butter but come on, even fatty bacon sticks to the pan. It seems quality control is severely lacking. It scratched within only a few uses. I'm going to try to get the word out about these pans, so other consumers don't get ripped off.

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

Gotham Pans

By Annette F Eggleston, North Carolina, Verified Reviewer

I ordered the seven-piece set of Gotham Steel Pans and paid $139.00 from Amazon, shipped by Emson. I received my order on January 13, 2017.

When I opened it, all excited, my deep square pan had a chip in it. I didn't want to send all of it back, so I called Emson on two separate occasions. No one answered, so I left messages. I STILL have not had a return call!

The lifetime warranty states that I need to send the defected piece back and send them $9.95 and add shipping insurance! I shouldn't have to pay anything since they are supposed to be brand new. I am packing them back up and shipping them back. I will have to pay shipping and handling to get my refund back.

I am VERY disappointed! I am sharing will all my friends about the poor customer service.

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

Poor communication, never shipped

By Athena, Dallas, TX, Verified Reviewer

They emailed an order confirmation that stated to allow 2-3 weeks for delivery. After four weeks I checked the status, which showed it was out of stock. I never received the item or a notice that the shipment was delayed. Don't bother with this Mickey Mouse company!

Gotham Steel Pan

By Janet, Westfield, MA, Verified Reviewer

I purchased this pan a few weeks ago. I am very disappointed with its performance. It is not what is advertised on TV. I cooked an egg in it, and the result was just was your's was. It stuck to the pan, and I had a difficult time to lift it off the pan to the plate. I used a metal spatula and my pan in scratched. I also had to scrub to clean it from the egg. I would not recommend this pan.

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

Love my skillet

By Sally, Surrey, British Columbia, Canada, Verified Reviewer

I bought the 9.5" skillet three months ago, and it still works great. I use it for eggs, steak, pork chops, chicken, etc., and nothing sticks. Clean up is also a breeze.

I'm not sure why there are so many negative comments on here about this product. Perhaps it's the types of the elements that are being used? I know the pans are not recommended for flat top stoves, so perhaps that is why some pans are causing foods to stick, and the pans are warping? Just a thought. I'm off to purchase another one as I need two skillets.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Eggs stick to Gotham Steel fry pan

By Linda, Sechelt, British Columbia, Canada, Verified Reviewer

I purchased the Gotham Steel frying pan on Sunday, January 15, using it yesterday for the first time. It was awesome. I cooked a piece of coated tilapia and simply rinsed everything off. But then, this morning, I fried a couple of eggs, and they totally stuck to the pan!

I tried phoning Emson's customer service and was given several options to connect, but none for Gotham steel.

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