“I have used some truly bad nonstick pans. This has given me a real appreciation for ones that are seriously good — and HexClad’s Hybrid Fry Pan is seriously good,” says shopping writer Micki. “So good, in fact, I used it every morning (and sometimes at other points in the day) for a month straight.”

“I never have to worry about anything sticking to the surface, and hand washing it takes just 30 seconds because it really is nonstick,” shares social media manager Andrea of her 12-inch HexClad pan. “What I love the most is that I can get a good sear on proteins without worrying about damaging the nonstick coating, because this pan is built to take some serious heat.”

“Once I got comfortable [with the double burner griddle], I easily cooked four pancakes at a time that were about the size of my hand,” Micki raves in her review. “I have an electric stove with burners that sit slightly wonky, so I was surprised to find that the griddle was able to evenly disperse the heat so the center of the pan cooked the pancakes perfectly every time.”

“This Dutch oven built up my cooking confidence — and I haven’t felt so proud cooking in the kitchen in a while,“ Andrea writes, adding, “Despite my love for HexClad, I wasn’t sure how much better its Dutch oven would perform or even how well it’d work. But after cooking in it regularly for about a month… it made me want to cook in a Dutch oven more.”

“This is a huge skillet. It comes with a domed lid which, when on, gives the whole shebang a flying saucer vibe,” says contributor Riddley. She adds, “Thanks to its expansive surface, I can brown a batch of meatballs in one go (then add tomato sauce and simmer them to finish cooking), sear an entire package of chicken thighs for meal prep, and make sautéed vegetables to feed six-plus people when my family comes over for dinner.”

Usually, when contributor Britt heats up a frozen pizza, “it’s somewhat crisp around the edges and a little doughy in the middle, which I thought couldn’t be helped,” she writes. “However, the pizza steel ensured that my cheap little frozen pizza had a nice crisp crust from one side to the other! It actually made me feel like I was eating a slice that was far more expensive than it was.”

“I’ve been using this salt and pepper grinder set in my kitchen for well over a month now, and I love it,” Micki says. “They each have 10 different settings. My favorite part is that they both have caps at the base, so I can have freshly ground salt and pepper ready to go when I’m cooking (this is especially helpful if you want to measure out how much you’re adding to a dish instead of eyeballing it).”

“It’s my ideal pan because it’s shallow with tall sides,” Micki shares. “For someone who routinely makes shepherd’s pie for dinner, this pan is perfect for cooking off ground meat and then adding all the fix-ins (veggies and stock) for the base.”

“The HexClad Damascus Steel Chef’s Knife is exactly what I look for in my cutlery,” Micki writes. “Most importantly, it’s sharp and cuts very well, even through ingredients like tomatoes, which some of my other, duller knives immediately squish. Beyond that, it feels really nice in my hand, since the handle is decently heavy but not out of balance with the blade.”

Micki once said that she loved her fry pan so much, “I actually find myself daydreaming about buying a full set.” And with this discount, her dream might become a reality. Even when it’s not on sale, bundling the 8-inch, 10-inch, and 12-inch pans with lids saves you over a hundred bucks compared to buying them individually.
