It worked as advertised for the first few eggs, then after a while the right side of the pan started sticking in an unusual manner. The left part retained most of the anti-stick properties. I e-mailed support and continued to follow directions: oil the pan, use lower heat settings, use a metal spatula, etc. I followed their directions and the pan suffered. I cooked several eggs throughout the week and noticed a pattern of stickiness in the pan and took several pictures that revealed a section of the pan that lost its non-stick ability.
I e-mailed all the pictures to warranty and they sent a replacement pan free of charge citing that the manual coating of the pan was unusually worn. Okay, I get a new pan to start again. After repeated cooking the same thing happened...and get this...in the very same right side of the pan. What a disappointment. After a few weeks the issue remained.
This pan sounded too good to be true and it is. I'm sure mileage may vary by users, but my mileage on these pans were short lived. I love the lightweight design and the handle. Otherwise, not a spectacular pan. I still use my stainless steels.

not non stick. nothing about these pans is non stick. no non stick coating. I can not believe the other reviewer would even state such a thing... you need to use oils and still everything sticks! I purchased these pans over a year ago and in my opinion, overpriced and really unhappy with pans. when I contacted the company, The company didn't care that their claims did not hold up. pans were not flat surfaced at all. would not work on my flat top stove so I actually went out and purchased a new stove. The pans looked like crap within 30 days. then my dishsoap which is grapefruit base, actually ruined the surface of the pan. I used to have a review on amazon stating ALL my grievances about these pans including detailed photos but it looks like the company pulled the entire listing off the web and relisted the product again without my review. The only other review on here for these pans looks pretty fishy to me. regular amazon reviewers are sure to notice the usual tricks that appear to be from someone who possibly is affiliated with the company. It still ticks me off that this company didn't care one iota that their claims of flat pans were untrue. If anyone wants to stick their neck out on these pans and a company who didn't care, I've got an entire set of really crappy looking pans that I can sell for way too much money and all your food will stick.Update: 9/26/13
After spending almost $400 on an entire set plus additional pieces from the manufacturer with nothing but problems, I had to make do and use this set for the past 2 years. The husband didn't want to shell out more money for a new set after I begged for these horrible manpans. I can't stress how terrible these pans are. I now have shiny metal showing directly through the bottom of these pans. After showing my husband the shiny metal showing through, he finally agreed to let me purchase a new set of cookware. for the $400 intial investment I expected great pans that performed as the manufacture stated and pans that last. They didn't. Buyer Beware. I have now switched to WearEver . If purchased in champagne color but if you like red, they have a wonderful set of 15 pieces for a low price.

Understand that these are NOT Dupont non-stick pans! I wanted pans without the harmful non-stick coating. These pans are great! I add a tiny bit of butter or canola oil (as directed) and my omelets come right out. They clean up in a breeze, just don't let them sit forever or you'll need a bit of elbow grease. We use metal utensils on the without any issues. These are a great complement to any set of pans! We cook everything from pancakes to stir fry with ease. I am very happy with this purchase and its a great alternative to traditional non-stick pans!Honest reviews on ManPans Fry Pan Skillet
