Honest reviews on Paderno World Cuisine 8.625 Inch Blue Carbon Steel Crepe Pan
Made in China??? Unknown.You get exactly what is advertised, an 8.625" crepe pan.
I ordered two Paderno crepe pans. One from this page and a second listed as 8 5/8" instead of 8.625". The size should have been identical! The 8 5/8" pan cost a lot more, so I wondered if there might be a difference in quality. Both crepe pans appeared to have the same specs from the same company. Perhaps the more expensive one is made in Italy and this cheaper one in China?
The 8.625" pan arrived and is exactly as described. The actual cooking surface is only about 6.75 inches in diameter. The pan is much thinner, lighter weight than the Paderno 9.5 inch Frying pan I recieved. (The frying pan was labeled as being made in China.) The lighter weight of this crepe pan may be appealing for some cooking applications. I will probably use a lower heat setting when using the thinner, lighter weight pan. The crepe pan is a nice weight and not cheap or flimsey.
The higher priced 8 5/8" pan was mislabeled. I received a 7" in diameter pan. It appeared to be the same quality as the 8.625" pan. Except for size, it appeared to be identical in materials and workmanship. Since the 8 5/8 inch pan I received was mislabeled by the Paderno company, I do not know how a correctly labeled 8 5/8 inch pan would rate in a side by side comparison to the 8.625 inch pan. Maybe the pans are identical, maybe not?
NEITHER crepe pan was labeled with a Country of Origin. I thought this was mandatory under US law.
I ordered the Paderno 9.5" carbon steel frying pan at the same time. The Country of Origin is CHINA!!!!! I thought I was purchasing Italian cookware, so I am not a happy camper. The front of the label states: Paderno, an Italian manufacturing company serving professional chefs since 1925. But, on the back of the label, by the UPC, it clearly states: Made in China.
I suspect that even though the two Paderno World Cuisine crepe pans I purchased are not labeled, they were also made in CHINA.
Grrrrr....
