KYOCERACFP32W BK Ceramic Coated Nonstick 12.5- inch Wok with Tempered Glass Lid

I own several other ceramic pans -- a couple more expensive; a couple less expensive -- and I have to say this one is the BEST I've used so far. I like it so much, I may end up purchasing the other two sizes to have the complete set.Here's what's good about it:1. Hard ceramic non-stick surface. It really is NON-STICK. Seriously -- you can fry an egg in this thing without oil, and it will slide right out of the pan. The hard surface means you can use a variety of kitchen tools without risking scratching.2. Easy cleaning -- I just wipe it out with a damp paper towel most of the time, and do a quick hand-wash when needed.3. High sides -- I didn't realize how much I would like this, but it makes it much easier to turn, flip, and stir things without risking splashes or overflows. It holds a lot.4. Metal handle makes it oven-proof up to 400 degrees.5. You don't need to use high heat to cook things in this. In fact, the manufacturer recommends low- to medium-heat. They're right.6. I tested it on my GE Cafe gas range as well as my  DUXTOP 1800-Watt Portable Induction Cooktop Countertop Burner 9100MC , and it worked perfectly on both. It heated quickly and evenly on the induction burner, and did fine on the "low heat/simmer" burner of my range.I honestly can't find anything negative to say about it. I use a 10" skillet more than any other size, so this will definitely be my "skillet of choice" going forward.UPDATE: February 5, 2015I now own every size of this pan. I liked the 10" so much that I purchased the other two sizes. And I'm still just as happy now as I was back in October 2014 when I originally wrote this review.I use the 8" pan 2-3 times a week, the 10" 3-4 times a week, and the larger 12" 1-2 times a month. I've had NO problems with sticking whatsoever. I think the key is to use as little oil as possible, and most important, KEEP THE FLAME LOW! You don't need high heat with these pans; you can get an excellent sear at low/medium settings. Also, most of the time I just carefully wipe the interior of the pan with a paper towel, and do a thorough washing once a week or so BY HAND. I still cook scrambled eggs with NO oil at all, and they come out perfect every time.Most of my other skillets are now in storage in the garage. I'm sold on these.

Have had my calohalon nonstick for 10+ years and decided to replace. Saw great reviews for this and was honestly surprised. Doesn’t Kyocera do cell phones or something? But despite that I went for it and wow, totally impressed. Did Brussels sprouts and they moved around so much it was a little irritating. So slippery. Handles eggs beautifully. Heats up really fast so have to be careful to moderate heat. Mine had a few little knicks around the outside edge when I got it but not enough for me to send back. I’m hand washing so not sure how it handles the dishwasher. All in all, I love it. Still use my carbon steel pans if I want to develop crust but for eggs or a sauté, this pan crushes it. Lightweight and easy to maneuver,

This product was flawlessly made, packaged, and delivered. I was unable to obtain the 10" at a local cook's retail store, where I bought the 8" Kyocera fry pan two years ago. This fry pan enables me to cook perfect eggs, Monsieur Croque sandwiches, sweet potatoes, sausages--all with little or no butter/oil or minimal water. Be prepared for compliments about your new cooking skills.And what could surpass a virtually effortless clean-up? Just Dawn, water and a sponge are all that is needed to return the pan to spotless condition. No stuck-on mess that needs to soak before releasing from the "non-stick" pan.

Great pan, very high quality. I wish it wasn't raise in the center and was instead flat. Makes it impossible to cook eggs, even on a level stove, without them seeping to the edge of the pan. Everything else cooks great. Oil mostly stays where you put it as well. It just isn't a good egg pan. Even with egg holder rings, they will seep out, because only 2/3 of the bottom surface diameter is flat and falls off toward the edges, so the rings simply can't seal.I'm sure they did this to increase heat distribution consistency, but that doesn't seem to be all that great either, as things in the center brown before things toward the edge, even on a large burner.So why 4 stars you ask? Because of all the non-stick pans I've had, Teflon to enamel to ceramic, this is the best coating I've ever seen. The pan itself is clearly a budget pan, but the coating is exceptionally high quality, something I'd expect to find on a $200-$300 pan. It doesn't scratch, chip or flake. It doesn't react to acids or certain foods that have utterly destroyed previous pan coatings (I'm looking at you onions) and it's comically easy to clean. I've cooked just about everything you can for breakfast on this thing and it's a rinse and wipe affair to clean it. Salmon skin stuck to the bottom from searing? The silicon spatula and water was all I needed to scrape it off. I've only had it 6-9 months or so, but that's already longer than every ceramic pan I've had before it lasted...they all lost this non-stick property. And even Teflon Professional coatings flake off on me, and that stuff is just scary. I don't want pieces of my cookware in my food, unless its cast iron which actually breaks down in the body.

This is a great pan to replace a couple of less expensive brands that I own. I have used and washed it many times over and it is a dream. I use a convection oven and it works perfectly - even heat distribution. It seems to be slightly deeper than my other pans. My only wish is that there was a larger size available. I would highly recommend this one.

It was great when they were brand new. About 6 months later they still look great, except they are now the stickiest surface in my house. Using a stick of butter to fry one egg will have that egg semi-permanently fused to the frying pan.I stopped using them because it's too much to have to soak them overnight every time I fry anything at all.I contacted amazon who told me because it's outside of their warranty I have to contact kyocera, so I contacted kyocera who wouldn't respond for a month and after several emails finally responded and offered 2 options: ship the pans for an inspection at my expense for a possible replacement or buy a new set at 1/2 price. No thank you. I will throw them away and make it a point to never buy anything kyocera again...

I’ve had this for over a year now and although it is a nice sized pan it has started to lose its non stick, so it started off well with lots of promise but unfortunately has not lived up to expectations or price tag

Product seems good quality but arrived damaged. The coating was already chipped in several places.

We purchased this pan because Kyocera is a world leader in ceramics. We have been using only ceramic pans for the the last several years and all our pans are still as new. That is how we care for them. But this Koycera pan has turned out worthless. I wonder if Kyocera stands behind ther products as they advertise. I did not see any guarantee for this product or if I can return it. What does Amazon say about it? Dis I loose my money?
