Ninja No Stick Saucepan

[Grizelda]

After using the saucepan quite often for less than a year, I can report without a doubt that food sticks to the bottom of the saucepan as well as leaving hard to remove stains. At first I was ecstatic that my scrambled eggs didn't stick, but now they, and other foods, stick badly. There is no apparent reason. Very disappointed. Other Ninja products seem to sell well, but I would advise prospective buyers that the 'no stick' doesn't work for long.

Did you buy it from Q? If so contact them they will likely give you part refund. We had issues with non stick of Cook's Essentials pans and got part refund.

No, I bought it from another place, but on the recommendation of Gail, the QVC BA. Thank you, though.

I bought the Ninja oven dish, Food does stick, furthermore, how do you get the stuck stuff off without scratching?

I bought a Flavourstone deep pan (think it was from QVC) years and years ago and to this day nothing sticks to it. One of the best things I ever bought and I still have it. I tried to buy a set of Flavourstone pans after that but failed to find any and a few years ago I bought a set of Copper stone pans and they were similar and the same type of finish. Nothing sticks to them - fried eggs/scrambled eggs/fried anything/curries/chilli/bacon with no oil. I'm hoping I never need to buy another pan ever. Not too cheap though but very worth the money.

I bought the set of two Ninja frying pans from QVC a few years ago. Food sticks to the smaller one, which I use most. I suppose I should ring customer service and see what they say, probably tell me to take it up with Ninja direct.

I use Circulon frying pans and have used a set of Stellar stainless steel pans for well over 20 years now. There is no non-stick coating on to go wrong. The best value for money was my Stellar pan with 2 extra steamers so I cook all my vegetables on one hob. Brilliant, all of them.

Try Harts of Stur for value for kitchenware, particularly if they have a sale which they are having at the moment. I bought a Kitchenaid stand mixer from them which was the cheapest anywhere, except for the one I bought a few years ago as a TSV for £279 from Q, which arrived with an instruction booklet in Dutch only (extremely useful - not), which makes me think mine and others like it had been sent for repair, then refurbished by the factory who had omitted to check that the tell-tale instruction booklet was in all languages. It's never been at that price since, (anywhere) but mine works perfectly, so what's not to like? Except that it wasn't advertised as "refurbished".

I use Vogue stainless steel pans which are used in professional kitchens. I bought them direct from the catering equipment supplier Nisbets.

I bought a non stick saucepan from Asda ten years ago at the grand old cost of £7.99. It’s still non stick and in good condition and I use it every day. That’s why I don’t bother buying the more prestige brands.

I had to replace all my pans when we got an induction hob last year and my Aldi non stick milk pan is sadly missed but I have had no problems with the Ninja ones I got as replacements having had a Ninja frying pan that would work on the new hob and is in great condition still , I chose that brand.

Another Stellar user here. Had them for donkey’s years and still going strong. My latest purchase was the Stellar Rocktanium chef’s pan which is non stick and it’s brilliant, nothing sticks to it. Got that one from Amazon for a very reasonable price.

Was it a ceramic pan or a traditional-type non-stick?

I won't buy expensive non-stick as they never last and shouldn't be used on high heat. Any traditional non-stick types bought before 2015 should be binned according to a report I read last year. Despite manufacturers stating they weren't made with "forever" chemicals, they were.

I notice Jamie Oliver uses his own Teflon range on his shows and cooks with high heat. The blurb on the packaging says medium heat only. I wonder if he bins his after using them like that.

I bought a cheap set of stainless pans from Lidl over a decade ago. I use them for high heat cooking. They're great for getting a good seal on meat. Yes, stuff sticks (I definitely wouldn't cook eggs in them), but nothing an overnight soak won't sort out.

It wasn't 'non stick.' It was 'no stick' . After some use, it was 'everything stick'. Ninja No Stick does not live up to its name. A rip off product. Yes, I have to soak the pan to remove stuck on food.
