[Walmart] 8" Starfrit The Rock Frying Pan - $9.97 (Reg. 16.97)

Deal Link:: https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/the-rock-8 ... 0199467853
Price:: 9.97
Retailer:: Walmart

Similar to the pans Canadian Tire had/has a sale on (Heritage The Rock) - same size going for $19. The Canadian Tire ones have steeper walls.

I personally absolutely love these pans as they're my go tos for breakfast meals. They've got really good non-stick and have held up really well for the past year (Im fairly gentle with it), so stocked up on several for the sale price.

First post - don't hate.

That's a huge frying pan, how would you even use it?

with the usage of wooden and silicon utensils only, my larger ones from costco have lasted the last two years. They're now just getting to the point where the non-stick is starting to be less 'non-stick'
does your coating look visibly scratched? Or is food just sticking more and more?

I actually prefer pans with higher edges, kind of like woks. It prevents a little bit of the oil or whatever else I'm cooking from splashing out.

edges? I think that the industry term would be 'walls'.

Grabbed one from the store a few days back. For the price, it is one solid piece of pan. Size isn’t big enough to be used to prepare lunch but sufficient for cooking eggs, instant noodles etc

Usually if you go in-store these will be available in the different colours too--YMMV though as I haven't seen this particular deal in-person yet.

I mean, All Clad doesn’t even make an 8 foot frying pan, so they are a terrible reference.

I have this pan for many years. Find it perfect for eggs. Scrambled, creamy, etc. 8” is great for 2 eggs. My use 95% of the time. Just don’t turn it on high heat like most non stick and it’ll be good. I only use a silicone spatula.

i used it daily, bought it from walmart. the peaks of the ripples seem to have worn off, i was seeing metal beneath. the worst part is i was probably eating and feeding the coating with my food.
