Viking Hard Anodized Nonstick Fry Pan Set, 2 Piece

Purchased these two pans a couple of months ago. Where have they been all my life! Did a bunch of research before buying, and I couldn’t be more pleased! I have a glass cooktop and was worried about the pans scratching the surface. Nope. No scratches at all. Nonstick is an understatement. So smooth and easy. After browning some hamburger, I tilted the pan to remove excess oil, and it’s actually quite challenging to do because the meat slides down so easily! That’s a great thing. I have never had a pan that cooked so evenly as well. I’ve always had pans where one side cooks better than the other and I spend more time spinning the pan to cook the other side. The heat is so evenly distributed it is just fantastic. The absolute best thing to ever happen to me in the kitchen. I will never use another brand of pan again and as my other pots are getting older, I will replace them with Viking products.

I’m no chef but I feel like one when using these pans, which has been just about every day. Definitely sturdy but they don’t feel clunky at all. Just the right weight and I feel the slight handle angle is just about perfect. Just read the directions. An occasional seasoning and always using a small bit of oil or butter in the pan will make a huge difference. I’ve had no problems with anything sticking. For the first time I’ve been able to slide fried eggs right out of the pan and onto the plate.

Great cooking on induction cooktop.

Great even heating due to heavy bottoms. Love these better than my older calphalons. Be sure not to overheat, as they get hot even on medium heat.
