It's uh nice and well-formed all the way around. And if you look at the bottom of the pan, it's the same deal. In fact, I'm going to try to get this so you don't get your eyeballs glared out right here. But, the surface of this is perfect. There's no discoloration anywhere. It looks pretty much like a brand new pan.

Hex patterns on the side. No problem there. No discoloration. No busted hexagons or anything. And then down on the surface here, you can see how even that looks. There's not any problems with this.

So again, you wouldn't think that this had anywhere near this kind of usage on it. It's still in perfect shape as far as I'm concerned.

Yes, this is ceramic, but I haven't seen enough data saying that it's not going to be bad for a ceramic coating, too. And even if there was data that said that, I still wouldn't put them in the dishwasher. I just hand wash them, hand dry them, and then they just stay perfect. It's not that difficult to do.

This one uh has a few scratches on here. It's not so bad. But again, this would still pass as a new pan, too.

we don't really have any imperfections, we don't have any scratches anywhere, there's no areas where that nonstick coating has come off. So, from a physical appearance standpoint, all of these pans look cosmetically perfect.

You can see that my rim is still nice and shiny.

I use them on my pans and I haven't seen any problems with it, but it is a lot more abrasive.

After 2 years of use, my Hexclad pans have held up really well.

And also when I clean them, I make sure I don't use anything overly abrasive.

Well, that's where there's a little bit of fallacy with HexClad. HexClad pans are not nonstick pans. HexClad pans are hybrid nonstick. This is one of the things that they kind of run into some problems with sometimes because yes, they have a ceramic nonstick coating, but those raised little bits of stainless steel are…

But you can feel it try to stick just that little bit. See even if I try to swirl this around, it's not really going anywhere. There is a little bit friction there. But you can see I can move the egg around, no problem.
