Product Description

Utilizing GREBLON -- a natural ceramic coating from Germany, the Green Earth Pan by Ozeri is one of the world's first frying pans to achieve non-stick perfection while remaining absolutely free of PTFE, PFOA and other harmful chemicals. This version of the Green Earth Pan features a textured ceramic cooking surface designed to prevent food bonding for superior non-stick performance. The elevations of the textured cooking surface also create air pockets which distribute heat underneath food to enhance cooking performance. Conventional non-stick cookware is achieved through a coating of PTFE (PolyTetraFluoroEthylene), a synthetic substance that has waxy properties. At very high temperatures, PTFE begins to decompose and release fumes which are documented to be lethal to birds and small pets, and which can be harmful to humans. In addition, traditional pans incorporating PTFE are manufactured with the aid of PFOA (PerFluoroOctanoic Acid), which the EPA has classified as a 'persistent pollutant of the environment'. With the Green Earth Pan's GREBLON ceramic from Germany, even under high temperatures, no harmful toxic fumes are ever released into the environment. This is because the Green Earth Pan utilizes a 100% ceramic coating derived from nature - not from a laboratory. The Green Earth Pan's ceramic coating is completely free of PTFE and PFOA. The Green Earth Pan's natural ceramic coating is also far more durable and scratch-resistant than other non-stick surfaces. With better non-stick properties, the Green Earth Pan allows you to cook with as little as half the amount of oil normally used, and it makes cleaning a breeze. The Green Earth Pan by Ozeri is made of the highest quality anodized aluminum that allows for even cooking and fantastic browning without the risk of hot spots. It boasts a magnetized bottom for rapid heat transfer on induction stoves, and a heat resistant silicone coated handle. Your satisfaction is guaranteed.

5Does the job well
By Angela Richards
For the great price, this pan really delivers. I need something that was just the right size for cooking. At ten inches it's not too large and it's not too small. It's just right. I do serious cooking for the family but I'm not exactly an "iron chef." I'd say this pan will serve your purpose well, whatever level of cooking you're into. It's a huge benefit to purchase this for those that are green-minded and the green color makes it stand out from the other pans in my kitchen. I honestly find myself reaching for this one more so than the others. The heat transfer is very quick and the non-stick works extremely well.

4Earth Pan Rocks
By Stephen S. Muratore
Got the 9.5" edition as a Christmas gift. Even aside from any eco-friendly claims the manufacturers make for it, the Earth Pan is fabuloso to cook with. The ceramic surface of mine is actually slicker than the Teflon or stainless steel pans I have. Nothing sticks to it, and cooking with it requires very little butter or oil-if any at all.

My intuition tells me cooking on ceramic must be better for the health than cooking on plastic. It seems the only downside to Earth Pans is that the ceramic surface can chip easily, and if it does, the food comes in contact with aluminum: the pan under the ceramic surface. That doesn't bug me; most of my pans are aluminum anyway. I do take care not to bang the pan around, however, so as not to damage the super-slick ceramic surface. I suppose the ideal might be a stainless-steel or iron pan with the same textured-ceramic surface.

Heat distribution is very good, but not perfect. I've noticed a hot spot in the center. A version with an aluminum pad underneath could mitigate this.

Earth Pans do come in more standard colors, in case your tastes don't range to neon lime.

Anyway, in this short time, the Earth Pan already has become my favorite pan.

5Great Little Pan!
By Carlene Styles
This is a great little pan!

MY FIRST IMPRESSION - Solid box, quick shipping, and great handle. When you open the box you will literally be pulling the pan out of its enclosure by the handle. This is a great thing because it allows you to get an immediate feel of just how great this handle is. The coating on the handle is made out of that material that gives you friction and allows the grip to be held more easily ( an additional plus considering the weight of the pan, though its not overly heavy ).

COOKING - The husband and I have gone through a few trial tests with it and it has worked extremely well. For sanitary purposes, do remember to give it a wash prior to your first cook. Cooks cleanly and quickly. That's all we need. Such a great little pan.

CLEANING - I HIGHLY SUGGEST YOU DON'T MACHINE WASH. Use your hands with a little dish soap and give it a rinse and it's ready to go for another cook! Do not make the mistake of putting it in the machine.
