Are HexClad pans just a marketing gimmick with a celebrity chef pitchman, or are they actually worth buying? In this review, I tell you the truth about HexClad. After putting it to the test, I reveal the good and the bad.
Full disclosure: HexClad sent me these pans but this is not sponsored video and they are not paying me anything to make it.

I have a full set of HexClad pans and pots. I've had the pans for about 4 years, and the pots about 2. I waited a long time to get the pots because I didn't see the need for their non-stick qualities as much as I needed it for the fry pans. I have also added a griddle and the wok to my collection as well. A couple things not covered in the video: Pros: 1. These pans will absolutely work fine on an induction cooktop. I have a small single one and the have no issue on it at all. 2. The handles actually do not need buffing, just clean them with the pan, they stay nice and polished. 3. They can be used in the oven. 4. The handles do not get hot during normal cooking times, only if you're cooking with them for a long time, like over half an hour. 5. the shortness of the handles make them much easier to store in a drawer, the handles a level with the pan. Long, rising handles are impossible in that storage location. 6. I use the scrubby side of a sponge/scrubby and some dish soap to clean them, and it is super easy. Cons: 1. The design of the fork where the handles attach is REALLY hard to keep clean. You need a toothbrush of something to get these areas from glazing and browning over time. 2. They are, indeed pricey. I waiting to buy the pots until Costco brought them in on sale at about half price. 3. The round, flat griddle would be better as a more square shape, for making 4 pancakes at once, or a bunch of grilled cheese sandwiches. 4. I really wish the sides of the large fry pan were about 3/4 of an inch higher, for making large quantities of southern-style white sausage gravy. 5. The smallest pot in the collection is too big.

@setherrrrs___775 2 месяца назад

Let me add to your cons. They still have a toxic non stick coating. It’s not PFAS but PTFE, a subgroup of PFAS. PFAS are known as a forever chemical meaning they build up in your body and do not break down over time.

My wife would of loved these pans if she was still around, our hobby used to be cooking. We would go to the mall and go to Williams Sonoma for Christmas presents. She would go in the store and do all of her shopping while I walked around, she would finish buying my Christmas presents and I would go in after her and get hers. Christmas morning she would get wustoff knives, an apron and a couple other utensils, I’d get some stuff for the grill and she snuck out and went to Lowe’s to buy me a new Weber gas grill.. there’s not a day that goes by I don’t see something like these pans that make me think of my sweet young wife that I desperately miss. Be good to your wives men, never forget the promise you made her and always look at her like the first time you seen her, being married with love between a man and a woman is the foundation for life, it is a beautiful thing, never take it for granted.

I really appreciate your scientific approach and lack of bias in your review. I did find it interesting though that you made a number of references to cooking eggs with oil. As it turns out Gordon Ramsay often tells people to cook eggs with oil. I am going to mark you as a trusted reviewer. Though I did raise an eyebrow before you started because the ad was for a different line of cookware.

@chrisikaris5891 Год назад

Your fair and balanced reviews never fail to impress. The fact that you actually try out and use what you review gives you a credibility that matters. I have discovered, much to my dismay, that some people who present themselves as experts - some of whom write for some seemingly reputable websites - offer mostly marketing fluff and seem not to have handled or used what they recommend. Case in point, recently I purchased a pot made by a famous manufacturer that one reviewer said had comfortable handles. But right out of the box it was apparent that the reviewer could not possibly have held that pot because it had noticeably uncomfortable handles! Unfortunately, it is hard to find trustworthy individuals these days. Keep up the good work!

I ordered the round "griddle" but was immediately unhappy with the convex surface, meaning any small amount of oil would pool around the edges of the pan. I called the company and was told the design was intentional. No word about the pan supposedly flattening out after a few uses. But I did use it a few times. The convex shape continued unchanged. At that point a second and more serious issue arose when I tried to return the item. It took several emails back and forth, answering questions about why, etc, and getting sales pitches with discounts on ADDITIONAL PURCHASES, tryiing to get me to agree to keep the item! Finally I got irritated enough that they relented and acceprted the return. No way will consider buying anything else from HexClad, flat bottom or not.

@cheddiebear3796 5 месяцев назад

I appreciate your comment about their customer service and what you had to go through to get the item replaced. These days, Customer Service is so important, and it is really hard to find a company that backs up their product. If you are going to put a lifetime warranty on a product and charge that much for a pan, then it should be a lifetime warranty. A customer shouldn't have to read in between the lines and worry about specific wording pertaining to the craftsmanship and performance. If the pan is faulty, do the right thing and replace it. As a paying customer, I wouldn't want to buy an expensive pan from a company that is going to make it difficult for me to return if I have issues, no matter what the issue is. I was considering purchasing a set of these pans but based on your experience with this company's customer service...I will continue my search.

six years ago I was in the market for a griddle pan that stayed flat through its life. Every pan from the big box stores warped. I took a chance on a Scanpan griddle from Amazon. Six years later, it's still flat. It has a 1/4 inch thick plate welded underneath. I also bought a set of fry pans, 9 and 11 inches. The griddle was $100 and the 2 fry pans cost $170. They are all flat and the nonstick surfaces look practically new.

Thanks for always sharing your experience. I've been reached out to HexClad after using a 14"wok for 5 months because of there were some scratches on it. The reply email said: "in general, scratches can occur. Our products are scratch resistant, but not scratch proof"... Now I have used almost all products of HexClad for 3 years, I'm planing to throw away my 12" wok which I use most because of more & more coating peels off, I don't want to eat them😂 I never use steel utensils and always hand wash carefully. Fairly say, HexClad has better quality than other cookware I've been using but I didn't get any guarantee benefit from them.

It's too smooth and the seasoning, the polimerized fat that's left over from burning the oil, has absolutely nothing to grab on to unlike cast iron, which is very porous, or carbon steel. Whatever seasoning you might manage to get onto the steel will go away after the first time you cook and wash the pan. Even worse, smoking oil on a pan that has a nonstick coating is going to affect the nonstick, since they are only safe up to 165°C and even olive oil, which has a relatively low smoke point, smokes at 180°C.

I’d love to see you do a review of Starfrit The Rock pans. They work on a very similar concept to these hexclad pans, and I’ve been using them myself for almost 10 years now. But if it turns out there’s a better option, i’d be happy to switch.

We replaced our All-clad pans with HexClad two months ago. The All-Cads did not heat very well on our induction range even though they are magnetic. The HexClads heat extremely quick on the induction range. Better yet, HexClad reacts to induction from rim to rim where All-Clad did not. I highly recommend HexClad for induction cooking.

Thanks for your review. I am about 3 weeks in to using these products and I am on the verge of sending them back. I did a lot of research and watched so many reviews before investing but my experience with them so far doesn't match. I have followed the guidelines to seasoning the pans before use, sticking to low heat etc etc and I still cannot cook an egg without it sticking! Am I missing something?

@invisiblekid99 Год назад

No. They are just not that good. A good iron pan or stainless with some knowledge beats non stick and these pans all day long. All of the above can be nonstick and last more than a lifetime. All you have to do is not stick them in a dishwasher and make sure they are dried after washing. It’s not hard, just a few mins of care and you’ll have pans that piss all over these and will last forever

@hiddenbunny7205 Год назад

If you are using it like a non-stick pan, it will stick. You need to use it like a stainless steel pan and it feels very non-stick. This means pre-heat pan, add plenty oil, etc.

These products are designed to look flashy on walmart shelves and trick poorly informed people out of their money so those patterns will look great next to those Pioneer Woman and blue diamond pans. It's a mid tier product, priced professionally, with an aggressive marketing campaign.

@livens100 Год назад

If you really want a non stick pan WITHOUT the PTFE chemicals, and a pan that will last pretty much forever, just but a high carbon steel pan like a De Buyer. Once you season them a little they are just as non stick as these hex clads, a little butter and eggs slide around on them. Also using metal utensils wont hurt anything except maybe scratch your seasoning temporarily. There is a reason why so many pan companies are trying everything to move away from PTFE's, like the newer ceramic coatings... PTFE is really poisonous. Just stop buying it.

@escape2112mm 11 месяцев назад

I was looking for someone else to make this comment, otherwise I was going to point it out. These are TEFLON coated which is super dangerous to breathe if it is heated to a high temperature. If you have birds (parakeets, parrots, finches, etc.) it will kill them very quickly if these pans are overheated. Birds are very sensitive to PTFE and PFOA chemicals in the air. I do not recommend buying anything coated with TEFLON. It's 2023, there are so many better options!! Hopefully they will come up with a ceramic coated version of this someday.

HexClad's marketing is pretty deceitful in that they claim to have no PFAS yet the coating is still PTFE. Most people have no idea how toxic these nonstick coatings really are.

So it's basically just a lesser non-stick pan, but with the ability to use metal utensils on top of the cooking surface? Like a cross between stainless steel and nonstick, but halved the advantage of both. (Though at a price greatly higher than both, using marketing hype.)

@gavinlottering 27 дней назад

"Fantastic review of the HexClad lineup! For viewers considering this brand, it's crucial to understand what sets HexClad apart, particularly regarding non-stick materials and PFAS concerns. HexClad uses a hybrid technology that combines stainless steel with a PFOA-free non-stick coating. While they emphasize that their products are PFOA-free, those concerned about broader PFAS chemicals should note that not all non-stick coatings specify about other PFAS beyond PFOA. For those new to the term, PFAS are a group of chemicals used in various industrial applications, including non-stick cookware, for their resistance to heat, water, and oil. While PFOA, a specific type of PFAS, has been largely phased out due to health concerns, it's wise to inquire or research further into the specifics of any non-stick material if you're aiming to avoid all PFAS types. HexClad offers a unique design that promises durability and ease of cleaning, but always consider how the cookware aligns with your health standards and environmental values, especially if minimizing chemical exposure is a priority for you. Always a good idea to use these pans within recommended temperature limits to ensure safety and longevity!"

@triXsolarflare 5 месяцев назад

Well mine never flattened out, and actually warped more with using the induction burner, I sent them a picture and they admitted they were warped and said it was from rapid high heat, since I do not cook on high heat ever, especially when using nonstick pans, then it clicked on me that they did not warp until I started using them on my tabletop induction burner which rapidly heats up, and HexClad told me that this type of warping IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. so I have two warped pans now

@foxt1042 11 месяцев назад

I now have four different HexClad products and love them all. They are heavier then traditional pans (thicker) and do hold the heat better. I have several "AllClad" and one "Made-In" pans, and I really like the HexClad for most everything. If I need to put a frying pan in a really, really hot oven, I use the stainless steel AllClad, otherwise I grab the HexClad. Really easy to clean up too, and I love the glass lids with vent hole that can fit several other products. Will look for a deal on a larger set to get more of the same manufacturer someday. I missed out on a special at Costco for a nice set... I should have jumped on it, knowing I could have returned it later, it being Costco and all.

@timothybracken1728 Год назад

What are your thoughts on carbon steel pans by De Buyer versus Hexclad ?

@PrudentReviews Год назад

Both are versatile (nonstick and good for searing) but there are some major differences. Carbon steel requires seasoning and reacts with acidic foods, but it will last forever and a well seasoned surface can be very slick. HexClad doesn’t require seasoning and you can cook anything, but because of the nonstick material integrated into the surface, it’s not going to perform as well 10 years in.

@goaway3717 7 месяцев назад

I tend to stick with my smooth cast iron. My usual concern with these celebrity endorsed products is how long have they been in business and where it's really made. I couldn't find how long hexclad has been in business so while a lifetime guarantee in nice to hear when the company folds up shop in a couple years how will that help you? Also the thing is made in China and I've seen a whole lot of poisons come out of China into the US claiming to be safe. Thanks Gordon but I'll just stick to my well seasoned plain old cast iron that I've been using for the last 40 years.
