New induction hob user - frying pan
Discussion
We made an induction hob purchase in December (enforced after a gas leak that was uneconomical to repair). So far so good and I am getting on really well with it.
My current challenge is a frying pan. Most of my pans fortunately worked ith induction so didn't need replacing. The frying pan had to go though, and I've been managing without.
I really want a non stick one, and have been fancying the Le Creuset non stick enamel one. The trouble is that it gets mixed reviews. Some say that it loses it's non-stick-ness, though I wonder if that's because they put it in the dishwasher.
Any experiences with the Le creuset frying pans. Or any other recommendations?

I have the 20cm (omelette pan) version of this and would recommend the range based on that.
Four years of being used almost every day, it's still going strong. The non-stick coating hasn't deteriorated at all.
Oven safe to 220 as well, and free delivery to our local waitrose. That could well get me excited!Four years of being used almost every day, it's still going strong. The non-stick coating hasn't deteriorated at all.
I've had a large Le Creuset for around five years. It was good for the first two but then lost much of its non-stick properties.
Since then I've purchased a Stellar non stick frying pan and its the best for distributing heat, gets used almost daily and is showing no signs of wear after 6 months of heavy use.
I picked it up for £25 from TK Max and apparently it should've been £70.

I have just bought a set of analon pans, the frying pan is outstanding.
Cannot go in the dishwasher though
... nor be used on an induction hob. Cannot go in the dishwasher though
I think there are some Analon pans suitable for induction. They have a layer of proper stuff at the bottom.

I have some "Circulon" pans and have had them for about 9 years and still as good as the day I bought them and they take a real pasting, but the finish is s good as new.
Plus not expensive.
I bought some Circulon Elite pans a few weeks ago and they are incredible. I don't personally have an induction hob but their suitability for induction use was plastered all over the box and care instructions. They are still on sale at Debenhams I believe.Plus not expensive.

I got one of THESE with the lid when I went induction a year or so ago and it's superb, oven friendly and still totally non-stick.
Looks interesting. Any idea what temp it's oven suitable for?
