DELARLO Tri-Ply Stainless Steel Skillet, 12 Inch Frying Pan with Lid, Compatible with All Cooktops Up to 600, Fast & Even Heat, Induction Cookware, Dishwasher Safe

This is a great pan because it's a combination frying pan /pot. Its great for whipping up quick meals. I saute onions, garlic, peppers and spices quickly , then add tofu with 1/4 vegetable broth and mix. Nothing spills out when I am mixing everything together because of the raised edges, unlike a regular frying pan. The included top is great because I can leave this to simmer for a little bit. I have used it many times. It heats evenly, doesn't warp. It's safe to put in the dishwasher without any problems. Really glad it came with a lid.

Got it on sale and was very pleased with the quality, especially for the price. It is a little heavier than I thought it would be, but lighter than carbon steel even. I suppose that’s kind of a trade off, quality and durability at the cost of weight. Heats super evenly and quickly as well as cooks food perfectly. I actually had to turn the heat down compared to my cheap non-stick skillet it replaced. It was a learning curve for me compared with non-stick cookware, but nothing a quick google search didn’t fix, any stainless steel pan would have been the same. Good sized for most daily use cases, I would think, I can sauté up to three pounds of ground beef with no issues.

I stopped washing dishes just to write this review. This pan is sturdy. The handle isn't going to jiggle or fall off. It cooks food evenly and is easy to clean. I accidentally left the pan on the stove with a small amount of sauce left in the bottom and didn't realize the burner was on underneath it for 3 hours. It didn't smoke. It shows no signs of sitting practically empty on a burner for hours. It was easy to clean after the incident. This makes me want more of these pans. I highly recommend if you enjoy low frustration, high quality cookware. This pan is durable and I trust I will be using it for years.

I've had it a year and a half now, just a few minor complaints keeping it from "perfect."1. The little screws that hold on each handle (one on side of the pan, one on lid) like to come loose so need occasional tightening. Might be fixed by adding a washer of some sort/ maybe some loktite? but not the end of the world.2. The finish is actually kind of delicate, eg I polished the inside with some Barkeep's Friend and it left tiny tiny pits in one spot. Perhaps my own fault for being too vigorous but again, not world ending. I only polish it once in a blue moon now so it stays ugly, *clean* but ugly haha.3. Now the one truly concerning bit I just noticed, we'll see how it goes. The metal border around the lid sort of pinches the glass in place, and I realized upon close OCD examination that water can easily enter between the glass and metal but not exit so easily. There's a tiny bit of water just sort of sloshing around in there, particles, it looks like a snowglobe of filth... I'm still using it but just thinking "out of sight, out of mind" lol.Anyway for the price I'm happy. Every other stainless steel pan I've seen is like twice as much, and this pan still works just fine.

Having been on the business end of countless cooking vessels, the first thing I will say is I dislike handles with rivets protruding into the inside of the pan. I have not seen any riveted pans that are NSF certified, due to bacteria/food being difficult to clean, especially with dishwasher-only process. There's no good reason not to weld the handles, or attaching hardware, other than maybe being cheaper? It's nice to use a spatula and cleanly swipe the inside of the pan to get what you're cooking off the sides....rivets prevent that. The removable handle(s) are a nice touch. I have never had any issues with the nuts or attachment process. Maybe some people did but could be a defect in the threads, or overtightening. Put a drop of oil on the threads before tightening, and lift the handle up and down while final-tightening, which allows a completely solid connection, which I have never had loosen. BTW, the thread is a 5mmx.8mm common metric thread, so if you lose a nut (they give you extras) you can buy them on amazon. Some pans have the handle permanently welded to the pan but I like the removable feature, allowing storage in tight areas, or I sometimes keep it off and use the pan like a pie pan to bake with, and the handle being off, makes it less cumbersome in the oven. If you make skillet-browned cornbread, this works almost as well as a cast iron skillet. There are no lids with this but the price is great, and you can buy lids, or if you're like me, you already have lids that fit these saute pans. The lip of these pans are flared out, making pouring liquid/stew/etc out clean with no drips down the side of the pan. I measured temperatures across the bottom of the pan while heating on an induction cooktop. The temperature was very uniform across the interior, and the magnetic coupling to the induction coils was very efficient, indicating a good magnetic stainless steel used in the mfg process. To season the pan, I use either coconut oil, or avacado oil (not spray oil, as the lecithin used for release agent will break down under high heat). So heat the pan to around 400F (after first cleaning it), then wipe the oil to coat the pan's inside with a paper towel and oven mitten(s). This will greatly reduce sticking. So to recap, great pan, flat bottom, great handle and attachment hardware, easy to clean and use. Price is also very good for high quality pans. I've cooked several meals, cornbread, and desserts with them, and am still happy with my purchase!

I bought many frying pans from Amazon usually pro type thick bottom. What i had bought in the past now Amazon refuses to ship to Japan and also in 2024 so i was forced to look for another similar 12" frying pan. Boy did I pick a lemon even after making sure by reading the reviews before purchasing i was duped. This pan is awful, everything burns and sticks using gas. Simple items that shouldn't stick and burn do. I bought it in 2024 as a backup when the really good MSMK pan set wore out from 2023. This was the biggest mistake I ever made. I would have been better just to flush the $36 plus $18 international shipping down the toilet. Amazon still refuses to ship the MSMK 10+12" nonstick set to Japan, why only they know. I'm extremely upset and warn anyone to avoid this pan like the plague. It deserves a minus 5 review
