    • Durable, Reliable, and Great Nonstick Performance
Set name: Skillet (12")
Review Image by Nicole K
Review Image by Nicole K
This has been an excellent everyday frying pan and one that I reach for constantly. The first thing that stands out is how evenly it heats. It distributes heat well across the surface, which helps food cook consistently without hot spots. Once it heats up, it maintains temperature nicely, making it easier to control cooking compared to thinner pans. The nonstick surface performs very well. Food releases easily, and cleanup is quick and simple. I have not needed to soak it at all, even after regular use, which is a big benefit for a pan used this often. The overall construction feels solid and durable. The handle is comfortable and easy to control, even when the pan is full. With proper care, it has held up very well and still looks great despite frequent use. I do only use nonstick-safe utensils and hand wash it, and that has helped maintain the surface over time. What I like: Even heat distribution with consistent cooking Effective nonstick performance Very easy to clean Durable construction that holds up with regular use Comfortable, well-designed handle Great value for the quality Things to be aware of: Avoid metal utensils to protect the coating Hand washing helps maintain the nonstick surface Overall: This is a high-quality nonstick pan that performs reliably and holds up well over time when properly cared for. It is a great everyday piece that balances performance, durability, and value. I would definitely consider purchasing more from this line. ... show more

    • 12” fry pan review (long term)
I originally ordered the 10” pan and it arrived with one side dented badly. I returned it and then ordered the 12” pan because the 10” one was quite small inside. I’ve had the 12” pan now about a year and a half (possibly longer). It’s without a doubt the best non stick pan I’ve ever owned. I use the pan multiple times a week and the inside of the pan looks no different than when I bought it. It has no chips, scrapes, burned through areas or anything. I do only use silicone or wooden utensils with it and it’s always hand washed and dried. The handle is also in the same condition as new. I’ve used pans from T-Fal, KitchenAid, Calphalon, Cuisinart and various brands you’ll find at the big discount stores. I’d say none even come close to this when considering the non stick aspect. Generally not much will stick, but of course things will a little no matter what you’re using. But the clean up on this Circulon pan is great. Usually anything will just wash out and at most I’ll soak it on the stove top with some soap and water after things like messy burgers with some cheese. I’ve never once had a tough time cleaning the pan. Honestly they way I normally go through a “nonstick” pan I’m shocked just how good this coating is. It really does look like it did when it was new. So the only real knock I have on this pan is the outside, or at least the sides. The paint they use it either pretty thin or just not very durable. As I said I always hand washed and the pan is basically put away in a cupboard immediately after. I take good care not to bang them around and while they’re not dented, the paint on the outside has quite a lot of scuffing. Idk if that’s just from some knocking around in the sink or what but it’s not the best. This issue started pretty early on and just gradually increased. The bottom where it’s all metal is fine other than usual discoloration from the flat top stove which you’d expect. So if they had a better paint or powder coating (not sure which is used here) this would be a 10 star pan. With that issue said it’s still beyond a 5 star pan for me just because of the phenomenal performance and life span I’m getting out of it. So this is my personal review and opinions on this pan having owned and used it for a long time now. As a side note I also have one of the pots of the same series in the 3qt variety and I’m experiencing the same results on nonstick with that, but the outside still looks great likely because it’s smaller to handle and I usually wash, dry and store on the back of the stove. ... show more

    • Best durable nonstick at a great price.
Set name: Skillet Set (8.5" & 10")
I have 3 fry pans and one soup pot in circulon A1. These are absolutely the best nonstick cooking pans I have ever had. Very scratch resistant and nonstick even with little to occasionally no oil or fat in the pan. Handles are great. Price is completely reasonable for such good cookware. Cleans up very easily. I love 'em. ... show more

    • Really good pans
Set name: Cookware Set (9-Piece)
So as usual I wasnt sure if the reviews were huge or actually real. So we have been cooking with these for a couple months now and we really lime them. It says you dont have to use oil. We do use olive oil. But nothing seems to stick and the pans look great. The pot is nice with the strainer in the lid. Nothing bad to say about these. They are dishwasher safe too. Also they are of heavy materials. They take a little longer to heat up BUT the heat is even. ... show more

Set name: Skillet Set w/ Lid (8.5", 10" & 12")
It was wrapped so safely and everything was perfect when it got here. It felt nice and these pans don’t get my potato’s stuck to the bottom. I love being able to use a pan and there isn’t food stuck to the bottom. These 3 sizes are perfect for what I need. I love the silicone handle and how this pan looks so sleek. I can’t wait to show off these pans to my family! ... show more

    • Best pots and pans on the market
Set name: Cookware Set (9-Piece)
Love these pots and pans. The only brand I found that customer reviews didn’t say the handles get hot to the touch. The anodized aluminum black color on the inside and gray exterior look great. The no stick surface lives up to its reputation. However, the ridges on the bottom make a loud noise when making scrambled eggs and it drives my wife crazy ( the only reason for 4 stars instead of 5). Any residue left in the pan wipes out easily with a paper towel before washing by hand with a sponge. We haven’t tried the dish washer yet. I recommend buying the largest pan for stir frying (sold separately ), as the largest frying pan in the set is not large enough. The pans are made of thick durable anodized aluminum and they rate a 10 when tested for compatibility on our new induction stove. The pans heat evenly and quickly which is more a function of the stove. Bacon browns evenly from end to end at low heat setting. Water boils quickly at highest setting and slow boils when the heat setting is turned down to 4. The lids that come with the set have a unique strainer pattern at opposite ends of the lids (except the largest fry pan lid) so there is no need for a colander. The handles don’t get hot on the lids or pan due to the silicone construction and the handles are solidly attached to the pans so I don’t expect them to loosen over time which several other brand reviews complained about. We steam our vegetables but I couldn’t find an steamer insert that fits the large sauce pan anywhere online. I tried one made by Caraway but it was too large. Circulon should offer one that fits. Great value for the money and easy to use. ... show more

    • Capable Induction Frying Pan at a reasonable pricepoint.
Set name: Skillet (12")
Okay, I ordered two frying pans; this one (Circulon A1) and a Faberware Induction Frying Pan. Both in the 12 inch variants. The first test I always run is to verify they are actually induction! Yes, I've bought pans in the past that said they were induction, but weren't! So a mug of water in each, turning up the element to boost. Both pans passed the first test handsomely. Neither is expensive but the Faberware is almost half the price of the Circulon. However, the Circulon is much better at distributing heat from the induction element. On an 8 inch element, the boil pattern quickly covered most of the base, whereas with the Faberware you get near-instant heat but the boil pattern matches to the induction coils. In other words, for most uses the Circulon is clearly the better frying/saute pan. The second test is to look for doming of the frying pan in normal usage. The Circulon was decent - a small amount of doming but keep in mind I was running it at 5000W for about 5 minutes, and it regained its shape on cooling. I have not tried this on the Faberware because, from experience, I know this test can damage pans with poor or mediocre heat distribution. The handle of the Circulon is rubber - whether it proves durable, only time will tell. Likewise the quality of the non-stick surface. I'll report back in a few months on it's non-stick properties and endurance. The Faberware has an all metal handle which remains cool in normal usage. Of the two, the Faberware is the one to stick in the oven. The Faberware obviously lacks the heat distribution qualities of the Circulon, but to be fair it's a lighter pan, which may suit people more used to aluminum-only pans, or perhaps older people who would struggle with a heavy pan. Both of these frying pans together weigh less than my 12 inch Demeyere saute pan but we're talking a whole other price bracket! I cook every day, everything from classic French to Indonesian, Turkish to Moroccan, Malaysian to VIetnamese. So these pans get a workout. No induction pan I've tried, at any price point, is suitable for wok cooking (I have a water cooled wok burner for that). However, that aside, the Circulon A1 has handled everything I've needed it to do. So on average I expect a cheap frying pan to last around one year, maybe two. That's what I expect from these pans, but I'll report back if they fail to make the grade. Of the two, however, the Circulon is my clear favorite (though I'm keeping both). I have bought expensive frying pans in the past, at exorbitant prices, but the non-stick failed regardless. I don't like getting black chips of non-stick in my food. Overall, it's my experience that buying cheap(ish) induction pans makes sense from a purely financial perspective, but obviously that is somewhat subjective. ... show more

So far I am extremely happy with these fans! I believe I won't have to buy another pan like these ever again! I believe these will last long after I'm dead. Definitely worth the money. Nothing sticks especially if you know how to cook. The only thing I could say to be careful with is overheating these pans. Like any metal you get it hot enough it'll Warp.
