Sticks more than any pan

By Cook Mom, Texas, Verified Reviewer

It worked great for first several times, and I loved it. But it started to have all food stick like glue. Bacon is a nightmare. Eggs too. Nothing works after that.

Their limited life warranty is a joke too. You will have to pay shipping and handling too, which will end up that you can buy a brand new, better pan. I would just buy a regular nonstick pan.

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

Customer service

By Mary Anne, New York, Verified Reviewer

They have terrible customer service. I purchased the 9.5-inch rectangle pan for the $74.99 at a retailer that is about one hour away from me. When I got home and unpacked it, I found it was missing the four prongs for the steamer tray.

I called their customer service. I was willing to pay for the prongs but didn't want to spend another twenty dollars for the tray. Customer Service told me that they would only help me if I had purchased it through the website. I was willing to scan him a copy of my receipt, but he said it didn't matter.

I am so annoyed. I am just going to take the entire purchase back.

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

Love them!

By Gwen, Rising Sun, IN, Verified Reviewer

I love my Copper Chef products. I have the big deep pan, as well as the smaller shallow square one. I have used mine in the gas oven, gas stove top, and electric hot plate.

I can't help but feel maybe those who are having problems didn't season their products the way it tells you to do, because we did, and mine are wonderful. These are just my thoughts.

I would highly recommend it, and already have!

Love it

By Vivian Dye, Warner Robins, GA, Verified Reviewer

I bought the Copper Chef Pan and absolutely love it! It performs exactly as they say it does. In fact, I would love it if all of my pans and baking dishes were Copper Chef!

Copper Chef round pan set

By Steve Josephs, State College, PA, Verified Reviewer

I ordered the Copper Chef round two-pan set from Amazon. Both pans have a slightly raised surface in the middle of the pan like a dome. The surface should be flat. If you crack an egg, it will slide from the middle to the sides.

The non-stick surface works, for the most part, unless you are trying to saute something and get a nice golden crust. The pan will retain part of the product you are frying and will need to be soaked. The longer the pan is used, the worse the non-stick surface works.

I went on the manufacturer's website and clicked to chat and explained my concerns, but the manufacturer just thanked me for contacting them. I was so excited with the prospect of a break-thru pan, but this is just another ceramic pan with a copper color.

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

Already angry!

By Linda, Chesterton, IN, Verified Reviewer

Having seen the ads for the Copper Chef square pan many times, but not ordering because I thought the price was too high, I saw an option to make three installment payments of $24.99. I then made the purchase with that agreement, yet within a couple of days of my initial purchase, my bank account has already been debited for TWO payments of $24.99. And I haven't even received the merchandise yet!

I knew it, and this is the very reason I never fall for and never do this type of transaction. NEVER again!

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

Great products for the price

By Oma Pam, Verified Reviewer

I have several different Copper Chef products. Please note, all my children are grown so my husband (rarely) and I are the only users of the Copper Chef products. By the way, my husband is heavily supervised when he uses MY cookware.

If you follow the cooking and heating directions and do NOT put it in the dishwasher and do NOT use sharp utensils, your pans should last a long time. And for your information, you should never put any pot or pan in the dishwasher, ESPECIALLY if it has any type of handle (99% do). They should always be hand washed for longevity, no matter the brand or the cost. Most (if not all) manufacturers bank on people not using exactly as per the directions, resulting in sales in cookware every couple of years or so. By the way, I do have cookware that belonged to my grandma and that is still going strong, and she was born in 1911.

If the directions are followed then cleanup (by handwash) is a breeze.

I like how well these pans cook and that I have to add ZERO fat (olive oil or butter) if I choose not to. I will continue to use them daily (I have owned them for more than six months) and I hope I can write the same review five years from now.

Disappointed

By Jane, New Jersey, Verified Reviewer

I bought mine from QVC, so there is no confusion with the Red Copper one. It is a very pretty pan. After the first use on my gas burner, there are scratches. Really, on a $75 pan? The handle is a little odd and too long, and it gets too hot to touch when you cook. Also, I noticed that as it heats, it tends to raise in the center. It hasn't done anything more special than my other pan (not like my Gordon Ramsey Everyday Pan, which I love).

So far it has been an expensive popcorn pan, and I'm afraid to touch the inside with anything. I already placed pretty much this same review on QVC. In hindsight, I should have returned it.

Not all that is stated

By JP, Arlington, Texas, Verified Reviewer

It is not scratch resistant, and it does stick after a month of usage. I have two of them (a square and a round one). They seem to clean ok, but all the food sticks after a month. I don't use Brillo Pads either, but the bottom of the pan's coating comes off. It is easier to clean than my stainless steel ones, though. It irks me that they don't stand behind their product. It must be made in China. Maybe I will post this to Facebook as well.

Buyer beware

By Sue Fisher, New York, Verified Reviewer

It worked well for three months, then everything stuck. Even when using butter or oil, it did not help. I loved the pan until it failed. I paid $59.99. What a ripoff. I will contact the company, but I am sure that I will have no luck. I should have known better.

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

Save your money and buy quality cookware instead

By Marcello Zito, Los Angeles, CA, Verified Reviewer

Absolute piece of junk.

I received a Copper Chef square pan for Christmas 2016 from my niece and nephew. They know I'm an avid chef and love cooking for family and friends. I have commercial kitchen quality cookware and utensils in my home but gave the Copper Chef pan an honest try.

The Copper Chef worked wonderfully for omelets and scrambled eggs, and was non-stick, and at first, I was pleasantly surprised because it was very thin and light and made of thin gauge material. The fry basket and steamer set up is a joke. It is cheap Chinese junk that is a testament to shoddy Chinese workmanship and quality control (keep in mind; I have only used it approx ten times for eggs since Christmas 2016).

Within one month and approx ten uses, it began to stick. Today I tried it for the last time and scrambled six eggs with Romano cheese and butter, and it stuck like crazy. I have never used it over medium heat on a gas range.

Today, I had to soak the pan with warm water and use a rubber spatula to scrape the egg and Romano off before I hand washed it with a soft cotton cloth and Dawn soap. I'm very particular about my things and take very good care of my cookware and utensils. It still looks "out of the box brand new."

I would return it, but don't want to make my niece and nephew feel bad. Instead, I'm going to post this to as many review sites as possible, so that others won't get shafted by this deceptive commercial. I may make a YouTube video as well. I wish I could post pictures of the pan with eggs stuck to it.

Eggs stick even with butter and olive oil. I wouldn't even try to make sunny side up eggs. It's laughable that the commercial shows eggs sliding out without oil. A cheap supermarket fry pan works ten times better, and my well seasoned Lodge cast iron skillet is nonstick and over 20 years old.

I feel so bad that my family wasted money on this worthless pan as a gift for me. I don't have the heart to tell them how bad it is. I'm telling you from the bottom of my heart, do NOT waste your money on this pan!

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