Good points

Good Points

  • Easy to clean the interior and exterior of the pan. It is best to wipe out the pan with paper towel and avoid detergent as this can remove the seasoning.
  • The frypan is pre-seasoned.
  • Can be used on a campfire or in a pizza oven and BBQ.
  • Recyclable product.
  • The fry pan is completely moulded so no crevices to trap residue.
  • Full induction base area and sides.
  • Australian made.
  • Comprehensive instructions online.
Bad points

Bad Points

  • Handle has no non-slip grip.
  • Fairly unbalanced. It has a long handle and the grip area is away from the pan which causes the pan to tilt when lifting.
  • Moderately heavy.
  • Handle is not comfortable – flat wrought iron handle with hard edges, no non-slip grip, limited areas of comfort to grip, need to use and oven mitt.
  • The frypan shows oil stains on the interior and base.
  • When storing protect the surface of the bench or other pans as the pan can leave rust marks.
  • Thin base heats up quickly, need to monitor heat settings during cooking.
  • Frypan needs to be greased well to prevent food from sticking.
