Made In Cookware Reviews - 6

I've changed almost all my kitchen stuff to Made

I've changed almost all my kitchen stuff to Made In over the past 3 years. The quality is really good, especially for what it costs.

After trying out a fresh Made In nonstick

After trying out a fresh Made In nonstick pan 5 times to fry eggs with a silicon spatula and washing by hand and air drying on the counter, I saw deep scratch marks on the nonstick coating. I shelled out over $100 for an 8" frying pan and it worked like a $10 Walmart pan. Total junk! Made In gave me back all my cash but I won't ever purchase a nonstick pan again. Just stainless steel here. I'm not about feeding my kids non-stick pan coating.

My husband bought me a 12" pre-seasoned blue carbon steel

My husband bought me a 12" pre-seasoned blue carbon steel frying pan for my birthday. It came pre-seasoned, so you can use it right away. The instructions suggested frying with oil or oily foods at first. We fried okra with lots of butter. Cleaning the pan was a total nightmare. My daughter and I scrubbed for 45 minutes with oil and salt (the recommended cleaning process). Still had spots where we couldn't get the black off. Instructions say not to cook with wine, tomatoes, or lemon juice as it ruins the seasoning. Seriously? Paying over $100 for a pan with these rules and it won't clean properly? Back to my cast iron. This cookware is a NIGHTMARE.

After a month of using the pan, and maybe the 4th time using it

After a month of using the pan, and maybe the 4th time using it, the non-stick surface started to peel and burn at medium-high heat. When I reached out to customer service for warranty support, I was informed that since I bought and stored the product before using it, my 10-inch pan was no longer under the 1-year warranty. They offered a 20% discount on a future purchase but mentioned condescendingly that all non-stick surfaces degrade over time. Now, I’m using the pan for target practice. By the way, I still enjoy my Hexclad and my 25-year-old All Clad.

I was really unhappy with the quality of the product.

I was really unhappy with the quality of the product. The non-stick surface of the cookware got scratched after just one use, even though I followed all the instructions. The outside of the cookware also changed color, and even after trying the same methods I used on other stainless steel pans, it didn't help. Moreover, it doesn’t heat evenly. One section of the pan burns the food, while another part doesn't cook it properly. The delivery took way longer than expected, even after I paid extra for it. Given the price, it's not worth it at all.

The skillet we bought a year ago started off well.

The skillet we bought a year ago started off well. After 3 months, it became impossible to fry eggs. They stuck to every side and cleaning was tough. Even cooking on Medium didn't help. I won't buy from Made In again.
