Product Description
This aluminum skillet has a high-quality Thermolon Endurance non-stick interior coating which is durable and highly scratch resistant. Thermolon-coated cookware releases 50% fewer greenhouse gases during production and contains no toxic substances that could be released at high temperatures. In contrast to conventional non-stick coatings, Thermolon is completely free of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and is manufactured without the use of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA). It is heat-resistant to 850°F/450C. The aluminum pan has a black exterior, an extra-thick forged base for even browning and cooking, and is suitable for use with induction cooktops. The skillet has a sleek, rounded shape with ergonomic riveted cast hollow stainless steel handles.

We were excited when we read about the non-poisonous anti-stick coating on these pans, so we bought three in various sizes, two in a set. They feel great and are well constructed, although, why even something as expensive as this has to be made in China will always be a mystery to me.
These pans don't warp and the handle is well designed: it stays cool and never shows a sign of wobbliness. But... the anti-stick coating, although it still looks good, has last a great part of its anti-stick quality. We've had them for about three months, so that's a bit of a disappointment. Now fried egg gets stuck as if it was a stainless steel pan and the dark brown of a fried steak needs thorough scrubbing to be cleaned off again. Scrubbing doesn't seem to affect the grey coating, but still.. that's not what we got it for.
If you don't mind the not-so-effective non-stick coating these are nice pans. It they had been steel in the first place I would have given them four stars.

NOT Worth the Purchase
Dec 5 2009
By Sensual Satine
- Published on Amazon.com
I purchased a set of this cookware at Target approximately 9 months ago. I have used the skillet to make omlettes 6-10 times a month. I use a smidge of butter for flavor - in the beginning. The pans were non-stick and there were no issues. However, after about three months, the non-stickiness began to wear out and I've got burn marks on the pan that will not come off, despite soaking and hot water and scrubbing with a scratch-resistant sponge. I appreciate the safety factor of the Green Pan over 'traditional' non-stick pans, but I believe I will be looking at another alternative solution so that I do not have to replace the pan every 6 months.
Update:
The pans got to the point by January that they were completely unusable. I could use 3 pats of butter to cook 2 eggs, and I would need 3 more pats to flip the eggs and they would STILL stick.
Target, of course, no longer carries the pans because they suck. I was referred to the manufacturer who first offered to send me replacements (I was quite clear in my email indicating that I had purchased them from Target). I declined as I have since purchased Cuisinart Green Gourmet Cookware set and LOVE THEM. The employee told me they would send me a return label and issue me a refund (in writing). I asked what would be the timeline for receiving refund, when she said it would be forwarded to HSN. I advised her I did not purchase it from HSN as my email stated. She said they couldn't refund it then. I advised her that her oversight was not my problem. I was then treated extremely rude.
If you do research online, you'll see that there are mentions of defective batches and that the Better Homes and Gardens seal is being revoked. They have Facebook pages about how much the Greenpans suck. And I have created a blog dedicated to how much Greenpans suck showing photos of what 'lifetime non-stick' is like as well as the emails I received.

Very Poor Performance

I have been cooking for over 30 years and this is the worst pan I've ever owned. The nonstick properties disappear after several uses making this pan more difficult to clean than any pan I've ever used. Very unhappy

Everything Sticks To It
Jan 9 2010
By M. D. Rowland

After a few weeks of use you'll be frantically scraping things off the bottom of this pan, even while it is still on the eye. As far as I'm concerned it is the worst piece of cookware we own. My mother also has a set and has the same issue. Buyer beware.
