Always Pan 2.0 12.5 in Large AllinOne Skillet - Bigger Capacity

Our review of the larger Always Pan 2.0 finds it best suited to families and hosts who want one reliable pan to replace multiple pieces. The bottom line: this 12.5 in pan delivers genuine allinone cooking power, converting frying, braising, boiling, roasting and even baking into a single, attractive vessel. The biggest reason to buy is its combination of a roomy cooking surface and a durable, toxinfree ceramic nonstick that makes batch cooking and entertaining noticeably easier.

Key Features

• Bigger capacity: The 12.5 in diameter and roughly 4 qt volume let you cook larger family meals or larger batches without crowding ingredients.
• 10in1 versatility: Designed to saute, fry, roast, boil, bake, braise, sear, strain, serve, and store, it replaces several separate pots and pans for simpler meal prep.
• Toxinfree construction: The cookware is made without PTFEs, PFOAs and other PFAS as well as lead and cadmium for safer, healthconscious cooking.
• Advanced ceramic nonstick: Thermakind ceramic coating offers improved nonstick release and easier cleanup compared with earlier ceramic options.
• All cooktop compatibility: An aluminum body with a stainlesssteel handle works on gas, electric and induction cooktops and is oven safe to 450F.

Who It's For

This pan is ideal for people who want to streamline their cookware: small families, couples who entertain, and anyone who batch cooks or makes onepot weeknight dinners. The 12.5 in size gives enough surface area to sear proteins and cook sides in one vessel, which saves time and reduces washing up.

Those who should look elsewhere include shoppers seeking professional stainlesssteel cookware for hightemperature browning or those on a tight budget who prefer very lowcost replacement pans. Also, cooks who need extremely high oven temperatures above 450F will want a different pan.
