This review is from: Circulon Contempo Hard Anodized Nonstick 8-Inch and 10-Inch Skillets Twin Pack (Kitchen)
I ordered this twin pack of Circulon skillets and am extremely satisfied with them. They are heavy duty and so non-stick you can wipe them out with a paper towel! The feel is nice and not so overly
heavy that those of us with arthritis in our hands cannot manage them.
I have really enjoyed them and would definitely recommend them to
others. As always, they were shipped very quickly, and I know I could
depend on Amazon to make it right if they had not been so. You can buy with confidence if you are in the market for good-quality smaller
skillets!

The nonstick coating is something similar to what's on Teflon,

I want to warn the customers who are looking for non-teflon cookware that the non-stick feature of this Circulon Hard Anodized Skillet is actually from a coating using DuPont's technique, which is the same as Teflon pans, and not from the anodized aluminum.
I was trying to get rid of all the teflon cookware in my kitchen and looking for replacements. I read some online articles saying hard anodized alluminum cookware is safe and strong to withstand scratches and therefore long-lasting. That led me to this product. On the Amazon webpage, there was NO any description of COATING on the skillet, so I thought the anodized construction could yield non-stick feature for the pan. Plus almost all the reviews are very positive so I purchased this twin pack. However, after I received the product, I read through the product description on the package very carefully. It clearly says that the surface of the skillets were treated using DuPont autogragh technique. Because I know the teflon...Read more

I'm a very visual person and 1st impressions do last for me. A bit of pre-history: I looked for 2 10" quality pans for quite some time and found Circulon® Elite 8" & 10" Open Deep Skillet Set Reg. $80.00 Sale $39.99 on macys.com Thanks to my insightful husband who asked me to look the set up on amazon, I found out from the amazon reviews that the pans' weight was not centered and shifted toward the handle, which made them very unstable. Macys.com had glowing reviews for the set and noone mentioned such a major drawback. I really wanted to buy circulon pans, because according to reviews the quality was exceptional and they were on sale. I finally came across this set (Circulon Contempo Hard Anodized Nonstick 8-Inch and 10-Inch Skillets Twin Pack) and made up my mind to get 2 sets since I needed 2 10" pans and didn't mind to get extra 2 8" ones. The deal was really sweet: 4 pans for $60, no tax, prime free shipping and in 2 days I'm opening the box. The design is very sleek, the pans...Read more
