Gotham Steel Pans Reviews

I bought the grill and got the fry pan. The interior coating started to break down, and the outer surface is so stained I cannot get it clean. This was not supposed to happen. So I do not think they have tested this product and their claims are false! And when you call their number you get NO answer. What a fraud.

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

I bought the square and round fry pans for my boyfriend, who has been a cook for over ten years. Spent $50, which was a waste of money. Everything sticks, including eggs, veggies, meats, even when using oil and bacon fat, with the heat on low! False advertising. Warranty will cover, but you have to pay $10 for a new one. No thanks!

Do not buy these products by Gotham Steel!

These are THE worst products on the market today! The handles on both pasta pot and the frying get HOT. We haven't had to worry about hot pot/pan handles since the 1970's! I burned my hand on the frying pan handle and burned my fingers on the lid of the pasta pot. I was SIMMERIMG chili in the pasta pot, and the lid BURNED my fingers! I am thinking about suing this company.

Some time ago my mother purchased Gotham Steel pans. I got the big 12-inch pan, the smaller 10-inch pan, a broiling pan with a glass lid, a square Gotham Steel with a fryer, and another Gotham Steel item that you can fry your items on the stove. After the first few weeks, the pans work great with no problems. I never cleaned them with anything but nylon cleaning brushes, nothing partial or abrasive. I used only this nonstick type of utensils on the pans and never used metal like they showed on TV.

After about a month the pans stop losing their non-stick ability, and from there on it got worse. I had to scrub really hard with the nonstick nylon sponges to get them clean. Then I noticed that it's in scratches, which started showing up in the pans that I use on a daily basis. After that, I got health issues and got very sick after using one of the pans. I stopped using the pans immediately I'm still having further issues, and I blame the manufacturer of Gotham Steel pans for this. When the surface starts chipping up, it gets into your system and causes serious health issues. I missed time at work and had bleeding and other issues.

The commercial did not emphasize anything about the way you can clean or use your pans, that they hold up regardless of how they are treated, but I did not treat them in the way they showed on the TV because I did not trust the TV commercial. I am going to look into further repercussions from this Gotham Steel manufacturers over this because I have missed time at work and have been very sick for several weeks.

I bought one, and it seemed pretty good (at the time, it now sticks). So I recommended it to a relative. He bought it at a local store and the first time he used it for an egg, everything stuck and got burned.

So I called customer service since they boast a guarantee right? Well, the truth is unless you buy it on their website, pay for shipping, etc., the guarantee isn't for you. I was told to mail the pan with $9.95 to headquarters in New York to get a replacement pan. Wait, what? I have to PAY more for your bad pan and hope the replacement is better?

Companies that do stand by the product don't deserve good reputations. Steer clear of this one!

I received this pan for Christmas from my mom. I love cooking and loved everything it seemed to offer. It has been a nightmare ever since. On Christmas, it kind of stuck while making candied yams. Now today, on August 1st, it is sticking while making pancakes, even when using butter. Buy a "cheap" pan from Walmart; it'll last longer and work better. Terrible.

Worst frying pan I have ever spent money on. And I have tried them all. Stick with the $20.00 T-fal, at least you'll get a couple of good years out of it. Chef Daniel Green should be ashamed to endorse this product. But it is his reputation, not mine.

Looks like we've taken a turn back in time. When ripping off consumers was shrugged off by regulators. There used to be integrity in marketing. The media outlets accepting money from these shysters to run their ads are just as bad in my mind. Read the reviews on all products being marketed by "Emson." You will hear the same stories on every product. Disappointing to say the least.

I bought one of these pans, and I have to say, I HATE it. From eggs to pancakes and french toast, it all sticks and I had to SCRUB off what was stuck on. This pan is now in the city dump!

I bought a skillet first then went back for a complete set. The large pot has already been damaged, which leads me to believe that it may be a bad deal, however, the other pans are doing well. But I would not use an electric mixer because I did, and it tore it up.

I was really excited to try my new nonstick pan. I was totally disappointed in its performance. The first couple of times it was fine, and then EVERYTHING sticks, and it is a pain to clean. NO, I would not recommend this to my enemies!
