  Não é lá tão "Nonstick" assim, deixa a desejar.

  A frigideira é medianamente não aderente. Não compraria se soubesse antes.

  Pleasantly surprised.

  This works as advertised which means it is not traditional non-stick like Teflon. However within a few uses I have been able to fry eggs without much effort and I don’t have to worry about scratching the surface.Cleans up easily and still looks almost like new.

  Great investment

  I've approached this thinking it's a carbon steel pan rather than a nonstick, so being sure to treat it well and be careful not to cook things in it that could strip the seasoning. So far it's repaying me very well! Works really great on induction, with nice even heat, and performance is just as good as a regular non-stick pan.Despite being pretty expensive it actually feels like it'll be worth it - properly solidly built and it should last longer than a coated pan.

  Awkward, warps , not a great pan for the money

  I had high hopes for this Nissan frying pan, but it turned out to be a major disappointment. The “non-stick” surface barely works,,, food sticks much more than expected, even when using oil or cooking spray. After only a short time, the pan started changing color, which makes it look worn out and cheap. The biggest issue is that the pan warped after regular use, causing it to wobble on the stovetop and heat unevenly. Overall, it just has an awkward, low-quality feel in your hand and while cooking. Definitely not what I expected, and I wouldn’t recommend it.

  WORST Non-Stick Pan EVER! Don't Even Consider It

  I purchased two of these pans as Christmas gifts for our home: a 12-inch pan ($97) and an 8-inch pan ($90). Unfortunately, they are the worst “non-stick” pans we’ve ever owned.From the first use, we were shocked that we couldn’t even fry an egg without it sticking badly. I took photos to document this. When I returned to the product page, I noticed Misen’s own marketing photo showing a fried egg sliding effortlessly out of the pan—something our Misen pans have never done. I’ve included both their image and ours for comparison.Cleaning is an even bigger issue. These pans are extremely difficult to clean and never return to a truly clean state. Even after careful washing, residue remains. The attached photo shows what the pan looks like after cleaning—and this is after only a few weeks of use since Christmas. It’s now mid-January, and both pans are already unusable.To make matters worse, we also sent these pans to family members as Christmas gifts, which is frankly embarrassing. At this price point, the performance is unacceptable.For comparison, we’ve owned OXO Enhanced Frying Pan Skillets for years and love them. They are also PFAS-free and ceramic, and eggs actually slide out as advertised. I wish we had purchased more of those instead.

  An aluminum core and nitriding makes for a high performance, light-weight pan. Not quite non-stick.

  I was excited to give this pan a try after seeing the Kickstarter and a number of positive reviews. After several weeks of daily use my overall impression is very positive.Pros: It performs as well as any carbon steel pan I've used, and the aluminum core does a good job of transferring heat. It's quite light, making it easy to handle. The nitride heat treatment gives the pan surface a very durable, and smooth finish that I could not get to rust or scratch. No amount of scraping with stainless steel tools effected it at all. Just like other carbon steel pans, building up a good seasoning improves the pan's performance, but it works great out of the box. After using it many times at high heat the pan has not deformed at all, retaining it's factory condition. Even when a lot of material has stuck to the pan, cleaning has been a breeze, not the least because there's basically no risk of damaging the surface.Cons: First, Carbon Nonstick™ is not non-stick. I think this is a major marketing blunder by Misen, and the source of a lot of disappointment in other reviews. Cooking things like eggs does work best with oil, and decent temperature control to achieve a consistent release. It's a high quality carbon steel pan and with the the nitriding, performs amazingly well, so trying to sell it as non-stick sets people up for disappointment. Next, given the pan's relatively low mass trying to sear something like several steaks will result in a temperature drop, so keep that in mind. Lastly, the handle has an oval profile I'm not a huge fan of. It works well enough, but an indented top would make it feel a lot more secure when handling with oven mits.In summery, the aluminum core and nitride heat treatment give these pans unique advantages over other carbon steel pans, and while not non-stick, they nevertheless perform extremely well. If your expectations are realistic, I think you will love these pans as much as I do. So, despite the questionable marketing, I am giving this pan f
