SENSARTE 12 Inch Extra Large Nonstick Deep Frying Pan, 5Qt Sauté Pan with Lid, Induction Cookware, Ceramic White, Non Toxic, Non Stick, Helper Handle

I bought this pan last July on sale, but I don't cook as much as I used to, so it took me a little while to assess the pan. So far I've used it twice, to cook up some of the one pan meals that I grew up with. You know the ones I mean, where you start with onion and green pepper and a pound of hamburger and throw in a few other items and pretty soon you can feed 4 people for not much money? At the risk of sounding like a #Fangirl, i adore it! It really is like cooking on air. I needed to replace my old pan and the factors in my decision to buy this pan were that it was A) NOT toxic, B) Non stick, C) Very well reviewed and D) Didn't break the bank. The pan heated quickly and evenly and the food didn't stick. Cleanup was a breeze, just soap and water. I had previously replaced my old cooking utensils with silicone ones (between the PFOAs and the micropastics, I've really had to change a lot of things in the kitchen lately!), so I don't expect any damage to the cooking surface. But only time, and use, will tell if it stays that way. In conclusion, I am very happy with this purchase and I am already planning to buy more of the pans in this product line.

Ok

I needed a new frying pan and did a lot of research before finally choosing this one. So glad I did! I appreciate the large 12" size. Its deeper side walls keeps food splatter at a minimum. I appreciate that it has handles on both sides making it so much easier for me to lift. The clear glass lid allows me to visually see how food is coming along without removing it. The lid has a small air release hole making it safer to use. I like that the handles are anchored without having the bolts going clear through to the interior of the pan. (My old pan was often difficult to clean because of this) The ceramic non stick finish meets all the safety standards I was looking for. I initially had my heart set on purchasing a competitors pan but learned the Sensarte had many of the same features for about a quarter of the price. Better yet, I was lucky to find it on sale!! I would point out that it is important to follow the seasoning recommendations before use. This pan heats evenly and is a dream to cook with. The food just slides out. Nothing sticks. I just wipe it out with a damp paper towel then dry it. I did purchase some silicone utensils to keep it from being scratched. The cream color and faux wood handles look nice in my kitchen. Not sure why pretty matters... but it does! LOL! Save yourself some money and give this pan a try. Take care of it. You won't be disappointed.

UPDATE: SENSARTE Customer Support responded promptly to my request for help. It turns out I was the guilty party. After two rounds of email exchanges, it was pointed out to me that I had installed the long handle on the wrong end! This led to the unsuccessful installation of the helper handle at the opposite end. This misstep, to someone experienced with assembling online stuff. was a bit of an embarrassment. In my own defense, I think the installation instruction could have been clearer with accompanying photos instead of sketches. Also, the handles are a little wobbly even with the screws and washers installed as instructed. But the pan itself seems fine, and lightweight. ***** ORIGINAL POST The 3.8 Qt pan arrived today just before I was ready to prepare dinner, much to my delight. Alas, my pleasure was cruelly dashed at the last step of the assembly process. Whereas the handle fitted well, the helper handle did not. It appears that the attachment sent was meant for a different model. (The helper handle was the main reason why I chose this product.) I promptly emailed SENSARTE customer service to explain the situation and requested a correct helper handle attachment be sent to me ASAP. I have not heard back by the end of the day, and hope for a response to come soon, at which point I will update this review.

I ordered this for my dad who received it and couldn’t help but rave out it. Firstly 5 stars to the packing of the pan and lid, he talked about that for about 5 minutes. Then the quality of the pan how perfectly finished it was, the ease of assembly, the included screw driver the wood like handles that are heat resistant. He was impressed by the size and how he will be able to use it for so many things; like stews, soups, pancakes.casseroles; frying eggs and bacon.
