Pros: Easy To Use, Quality Materials
Cons: No lid
Best Uses: Big Jobs, Small Jobs, Gifts
Describe Yourself: Casual Do-It-Yourselfer
I have always used a stainless steel frying pan, mainly because of the fact that lot of other pans using PFOA coating. SS pan is good for your health, but not so easy on your hands. The cleaning is hardwork. So I have looked for a pan which doesn't use PFOA in its manufacturing. To speak the truth, there are a lot of other options out there. However, I would prefer Cookplus Ceramic over them because:

1. The Price: The other pans that I looked into would have cost me much much more than this one. This is a very reasonable price and with the deals that have been going on, its just an icing on the cake.
2. The Weight: I dont put my pans and pots in the dishwasher and usually hand wash them. This pan is incredibly low weight which makes it easy for me to handle it while cleaning. It is definitely a good feature that I appreciate.
3. Ceramic coating outside: I like to display the pots and pans that I have, in my kitchen. But this never happened because of all the stains that are caused on the outer side of the pans while cooking food (attaching a picture). As the Cookplus ceramic pans have ceramic coating outside, it has been very easy to maintain the pans.
4. Sturdy handle: Because of the long and sturdy handle, it is easy to hold the pan and toss the contents of the pan. And trust me, the handle ventialtion really (i mean really!)works.

And definitely, there is one thing that would make this one a much better pan. That is the lid.

Also, I use a lot of turmeric in my cooking. I have noticed that this pan (even after cleaning with soap water) has some stains left behind by the turmeric. This is not a big deal for me, as I have noticed that with lot of other pans (except for the Stainless Steel ones ofcourse!!!).
This stains on the outside of my old pan.

  1. I read this review while looking on the lock n lock website. I also use SS but my hubby wants a pan for his omelets because they are giving him a hard time. Hopefully I can decide what to get soon but lock n lock is the way to go. By the way use bar keepers friend on your stainless to keep it looking great!
