GreenPan Nova 8 & 10 Frypan Set - PFAS-Free Ceramic Nonstick

Our review of the GreenPan Nova 2-piece frypan set finds it best suited for home cooks who want a reliable everyday nonstick pair that is healthier than traditional coatings. The set includes 8' and 10' pans with GreenPan's diamond-reinforced Thermolon ceramic coating that is free of PFAS, PFOA, lead and cadmium, and the heavy-gauge aluminum bodies deliver quick, even heating. For kitchens that use induction or need oven-safe versatility, this set covers the basics while keeping cleanup simple.

Key Features

• PFAS-free ceramic: The Thermolon coating is formulated without PFAS, PFOA, lead or cadmium, giving peace of mind for everyday cooking.
• Diamond-reinforced nonstick: Diamond-enhanced layers improve durability and help food release easily so less oil is required.
• Quick, even heating: Heavy-gauge aluminum bodies and a designed base provide consistent heat across the cooking surface for reliable results.
• Induction ready: The specially designed induction base works on all stovetops, including induction, gas, electric and ceramic.
• Oven and dishwasher safe: Pans are oven and broiler safe to 350F and dishwasher safe for convenient cleanup.
• Ergonomic handles: Riveted stainless steel handles deliver a sturdy, comfortable grip for everyday use.

Who It's For

This set is ideal for first-time householders, couples, or anyone replacing older nonstick pans who wants a safer ceramic option that performs across cooktops. The included 8' and 10' sizes cover most weekday tasks from eggs to pan-seared vegetables, and the induction-ready base makes them versatile in mixed-kitchen environments.

Shoppers who rely on heavy metal utensils, require very high oven temperatures above 350F, or expect professional-level long-term abrasion resistance may want to consider cookware designed specifically for commercial use or stainless steel alternatives.
