"...They work easily, and with more use become even more nonstick...." Read more
Customers have different views on the sauté fry pan's weight. Some find it too heavy, while others say it's light enough. The pan is not as lightweight as non-stick pans and may be difficult to pick up with one hand.
"...Everything cooks wonderfully in the pan and I love the feel, weight, and folded sides that keep my food in the pan perfectly...." Read more

"...I prefer carbon steel to cast iron due to the littler weight...." Read more
"...fault for not reading the weight in the description, but be warned, it's heavy...." Read more
Customers have different views on the heat distribution of the sauté fry pan. Some find it heats up and cools down quickly, with a stay-cool handle.

"...good, and after a few weeks of use, is perfectly seasoned and naturally non-stick...." Read more
Customers have different views on the sauté fry pan's cleaning. Some find it easy to clean right out of the box and remove grimes, while others say it's difficult to clean, especially after receiving it dirty with a black shipping coating.
"Cleans easily and heats up quickly while the handle stays cool." Read more
"...First the black shipping coating must be scrubbed off. Quite a chore!..." Read more
"...in contrast, has a more porous surface closer to cast iron and can easily be cleaned with a chain mail scrubber which doesn’t effect the seasoned..." Read more
"...(and it's harder to clean and maintain)...." Read more
Customers have mixed opinions about the value for money of the sauté fry pan. Some find it well worth the money and a nice product, while others feel it's too expensive for the quality received, with thin material for the price. The handle angle is awkward for some, and multiple thin seasoning layers come off on paper towels.
"...Too expensive for the quality of pan received." Read more
"Very thin material for the price. Handle angle is awkward for me. The beautiful blue/black finish flaked on first cook, after seasoning...." Read more
"...It is well worth the money and your cooking will be better because of it...." Read more
"...The pan won't sit flat and acts like my cheaper, garbage pans that warp and wobble on the cooktop. Worst thing ever for cooking pancakes......." Read more

- Reviewed in the United States on October 11, 2024This is the best Frying Pan I have ever used. It took a bit to season it because this was the first time I've used one of these but it took well and now its as slick as ice. Everything cooks wonderfully in the pan and I love the feel, weight, and folded sides that keep my food in the pan perfectly. I am already looking to replace all my pans as they are mostly nonstick Teflon pans. A nice carbon steel wok and 3 of these frying pans will make the perfect set of cookware. I'm trying a different brand called Matfer Bourgeat because Made-In doesn't make a 15" carbon steel pan. However, I cannot express to you how much I love this pan by Made-In! It is well worth the money and your cooking will be better because of it. Just take the time to season it and take care of it properly which is not much and it will take care of you.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2024Purchased this pan because of the quality craftsmanship and the high oven temperature rating. You need to watch several YouTube videos to learn how to season the pan and care for that coating. I prefer carbon steel to cast iron due to the littler weight. It takes a little getting used to carbon steel just like with cast iron but once you adapt you will not go back to cheaper nonstick pans. Pan should out live me.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2024This is obviously an excellent pan for cooks experienced in seasoning a skillet. First the black shipping coating must be scrubbed off. Quite a chore! Then once no more black residue can be rubbed off with a paper towel, the pan is ready to be seasoned. You rub a thin layer of oil onto the skillet, then bake it at 400 degrees for 1/2 hour (I think. It's been awhile.) I believe building a strong seasoning on a new carbon steel pan is a job for a more seasoned cook. I simply haven't been able to achieve it, and I must do so to use the pan. I'm really sad to not be able to use my new pan. I comparison shopped and researched it for months to get just the right one. Seriously not happy.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2023This is my first carbon steel pan, purchased with the intent to replace the non-stick coated pans i've been using since i learned to cook. I have limited experience in caring for this type of material with a well-loved 9" cast iron that sees infrequent use as it's great for some things but not others, and is too heavy; and a stainless/copper 13" that is also too heavy, and too sticky without using an obscene amount of fat.
I read and followed the directions: soapy scrub to remove factory coating, dry, rub with neutral oil (canola), heat on stove, season in oven at 400F for one hour. The directions also said to continue developing the seasoning with sturdy veggies and proteins before trying 'delicate' foods - i completely disregarded this and made scrambled eggs the very next day, using about 2tsp EVOO. The eggs practically jumped off of the pan, not so much as a crunchy little egg thread left behind!
I am in love.
With a pan.
I did get a silicone sleeve for the handle to make cooking more comfortable. The weight of the pan is noticeably heavier than a nonstick of the same size, but it's still light enough to handle, and none of those pesky PFAs potentially leeching into our food. I really like the balance of flat space to side curvature - it's worked well for both stir frys and searing.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2024Cleans easily and heats up quickly while the handle stays cool.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2024The most versatile pan I have ever had. Learn to season it and let her rip.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2023The first thing I noticed taking the pan out of the package was a chip on the rim of the pan. Not a big deal, but for the price of this pan it’s a shame. Searing burgers actually stripped my pans seasoning at 550F. I had to re-season the pan with grape seed oil after the first burger cooked in it. I really hope I don’t have to baby this like a non-stick. It also did not pass the fried egg test with several tablespoons of beef tallow. I’ll do some more gentle cooking with this pan on medium, but the lodge at $30 is look like a better pan. The pan seems to stick on the edges and has a 50 degree drop in temperature from the center. I have a Wolf gas range using the large burner. I would say the 12” is too large to heat evenly and I regret getting the 12” and wish I had gotten a 10”.
Edit: my previous review was 2/5 stars, but I have changed mind on the brand as WHOLE because their customer service reached out to me and was extremely helpful. I plan on trying some more of their cookware in the future just because their customer service was so good. To be clear I edited this review on my own accord. I have not had good experiences with other brands reps, so Made In really impressed me.

- J C SteelReviewed in Canada on July 29, 2023
5.0 out of 5 stars Very nice, solid frying pan
It's a very nice piece of kit - solid, well-made, heats beautifully (I've been able to reduce my former heat settings by a couple of notches using this.
My only problem with it is the expected one - it sticks like an SOB, at least at first, no matter how careful you are about the cleaning and wiping with oil stages. However, 3 weeks in, today it did give me pancakes not pan-pieces, so the tempering process does eventually start to take - it just takes a while.
- KeremReviewed in Germany on August 15, 2023
1.0 out of 5 stars Its huge disappointment
I'm not talking about seasoning/stickiness mess, first of all pan definitely not heating evenly. I tried ceramic and induction but result was still same. Central location of the pan is heating rapidly and more, and the edges are alyway cold, to prevent food from sticking you have to make sure pan is not heating too much or have to use alot of oil.... With this kind of price tag you can buy some real cast iron pods even 2 or 3 pieces... or buy some high quality non-stock pans and switch them in every one year.... I really hated myself after paying 130 euro just for this crap....
- Sean WiensReviewed in Canada on August 17, 2023
4.0 out of 5 stars Almost returned it BUT!
The media could not be loaded.
First the pros:
- great heat distribution
- solid construction
- works very well on conduction and BBQ/Gas
- can always scrub down to steel and start seasoning again
The Cons:
- it is heavy! (will need to hands to life if anything significant in pan)
- it is not non-stick out of the box
- the handle is metal and flat, so uncomfortable in the hand. But this is how pro kitchen cookware is, because chefs use a cloth dish-towels, or similar, to pick up the pans. The flat handle prevents it rotating in the hand.
The details:
So when I first received this, I followed the directions and use some cast iron 'seasoning' oil and baked it per instructions. Turned out a mess. The oil really did not bake into the metals surface. SO I used a SS steel kitchen scrub pad, and scrubbed down to the base metal again (one of the benefits of this type of pan). This time I used grapeseed oil and put it on the BBQ with the lid closed and the temp low for a couple of hours. This turned out much better, but things still were sticking at times. From that point forward, everytime I wash it (including using SS scrubber if needed to remove residue if needed), I put on the conductive stove at level 2 (out of 9), let it dry and then wipe more grapeseed oil on with a paper towel and then let it cook for an hour or so (conductive uses very little energy, so no big deal. Could also do on gas/electric). Now, about 25-30 meals in, it is becoming close to no stick. See video with eggs. You will want to use a wood or metal or very stiff plastic spatula when cooking, so if it does start to stick (burn), then you can easily scrape it away. The soft spatulas are not good at doing this, and the sticky parts will just build up with more. You also want to use a much lower heat with this. I generally start at 8 (out of 9), get hot, add 1/2 tbls oil, and then turn down to 7/7.5 for cooking.
So while this required a bit more attention than a true 'non-stick, it will outlast all the non-stick pans you will probably buy for the rest of your life. Now, if I get too hot and something sticks, and I have to use SS scrub, I am not at square 1. The pan has retained some of its seasoning, and does not take long to get to 100%.
Just wish it was not so heavy, but then would not be as good at heat distribution.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect gift
I bought this12” frying pan for my son. I had bought him the 10” last year for Christmas. He absolutely love cooking with it. This pan is great for scallops and searing!
- MSHReviewed in Canada on October 12, 2024
3.0 out of 5 stars As much as I wanted it to be perfect for my everyday kitchen routine...
...it failed my miserably. I'm not sure if it is quality control and I got "lemon", but the problems started once I opened the package and saw it "in person". There were quite noticeable spots of irregular shapes here and there. But I decided to give it a try and seasoned it "by the book" (I did it before countless times with my cast iron kitchen hardware), with a lot of smoke and some oil. I did it twice, to make some "layers of glaze"...It didn't work as it should - still some spots. I didn't want to continue with my experiments and returned the product. I don't know why it happened as happened, but I think I'll skip carbon steel all along and add some more stainless steel to my cast iron, and I'm thinking Made In and/or All Clad.
