Ever wonder what temperature the pan needs to reach for the T-Fal Thermo-spot dot (red dot) to let you know the pan is ready to cook? We’ve been using TFal non-stick pans for years now and got a new set. We’ll answer that long-standing question, along with others, as we test and review this affordable ceramic frypan set that we recently purchased from Costco.

According to T-fal, this ceramic non-stick 3-piece frypan was made to meet the demands of a creative and inspiring kitchen, featuring a seamless edge-to-edge ceramic non-stick coating with timeless stainless-steel handles for modern taste. They claim you will “experience an ultra-smooth gliding surface for effortless cooking and clean-up with Inoceram Glide Technology, our best-in-class ceramic non-stick coating”.

In our video review (above) we would say that is definitely the case but do wonder how well it will hold up and continue to perform. The jury is out long-term but for now the coating does work very well.

TFal also claims that the surface is 20x harder than T-fal’s basic non-stick coating. Hopefully, that is the case as our old TFal non-stick coated pans are flaking off after 3 years of use.
