Hawkins Futura 28 cm Non Stick Fry Pan with Stainless Steel Lid, Big Frying Pan, Black (NF28S)

Nice frying pan. Good quality. Thanks Amazon.

Great non stick fry pan available on Amazon. Pros >>really thick and moderately heavy. >>convenient plastic hand, grip is placed a decent distance away from the pan. >>takes 2-3 minutes to heat up, and distributes evenly and sustains more or less same temperature. >>although the pan doesn't require seasoning, if you season it regularly with oil(rub the inside of pan with oil and wiping it off) after washing, YOU CAN COOK FOOD WITHOUT OIL. >>food WILL get stuck at the first (even if you pour oil because the oil itself doesn't get attached onto the pan's surface), but it WILL COME OFF after 10-20 seconds once the side is done. >>So far, I didnt feel the need to wash the pan at all, but I do because the steel rivets(hooks of the hand) take greasy stains easily. Cons >>The size of the pan is not the standard. (SEE THE IMAGES, and comparison with another 22cm pan;camera angle is not great, there's only approx. 1cm difference in radius between two) I got the 22 cm one assuming the lid of my 22 cm pot and pan set will fit here also, but it didnt. So I measured the radius and its more than 1cm smaller. My 22 cm lid sits on top of the pan, rather than sitting inside and closing the pan. This is a major inconvenience. So better get the pan+lid variant because I think only the lids that come with this model of pan goes with it. >>its not deep enough for a small pan, and its not a saute pan(which has more straightened side) so doesn't work well for stirring food even when filled half. barely 22cm skillet means that its bottom is the size of a small roti and is just enough for one chicken breast. I WOULD RECOMMEND GOING FOR THE 26CM/30CM VARIANT WITH A LID. SUMMARY Undoubtedly a great non stick pan for the money, except the marketing tactic of keeping it little off from the standard size. Please read the instructions carefully before you start using it and keep following them. As long as you take decent care of the pan, it is going to last.

Bought this 28 cm non stick frying pan for my mother during the festive season. The non stick coating looks exceptional, the pan is made of sturdy material and has a pretty thick bottom to ensure even heat spread and consistent cooking. It also comes with a high grade stainless steel lid that can be used easily with other 28cm tawas or pans. I wanted a glass lid but unfortunately that variant was not available anywhere. We have used it to cook various curries, shallow fry chicken and made dosas and omlettes and so far nothing has stuck on it. It is easy to use and has enough space to cook meals for 3-4 people. Not compatible with induction though. Will update the review after use for a few months. As if now, it is a 4-4.5 stars out of 5.

Superb product.. Heavy base.. egg doesnt stick at the bottom.. perfect for half fry /full fry/omlettes.. just what I wanted.. Hawkins never disappoints..

Best omlette pan ever received - depth is correct - no spillovers when you flip stuff 👌

The pan is great. I am enjoying using it. 100 non stick and durable. Heavy duty.

Good Quality

ok for its price. but its coating will not work for long. use high heat or rough use will ruin it in 1 or 2 years. expect this lifetime and buy accordingly.

Box for the pan inside the shipping box actually has dirt on it. Cannot be used with high heat and overall quality isn’t great.

Never buy...The non stick coating already shed as black waste. Will not recommend. Warranty period is still valid, but can not go behind and follow up. Maybe everyone is thinking the same. and they are making money out of it.
