Caraway Cookware Exposed: My Brutally Honest Review After 2+ Years

[@hollabelle]

Finally someone tells the truth. I don’t understand how there are so many good reviews online. These pans are awful, I regret buying mine so much. After 7 months of use they look horrible and are no longer non-stick.

[@actualreplyguy]

Most (although not all) reviewers are either outright paid influencers or receive the pans for free. Whenever you are looking for product reviews, first thing to pay attention is whether or not they disclose their conflict of interests or if they paid for the product with their own money.

[@Yeshua_is_king_2024]

Any non toxic better alternatives ?

[@Zeek509]

I think for the price, the durability is unacceptable. Thank you for your thorough review!

[@PrudentReviews]

Glad you liked it

[@wchance6528]

I first purchased the Caraway cookware set in March 2021. I have to say, I baby each piece and keep them stored within the storage organizer. The coating is delicate, no doubt about it. Using an abrasive scouring sponge or metal cooking utensils will surely damage the interior. But if you are careful about cleaning and storing these pots and pans, they will last a long time. The exterior portion of the pots and pans has held up quite well, with the exception of the bottom. Most of my pots and pans are discolored on the bottom and I have tried to restore their former glory, to no avail. I love the pots and pans and use them regularly. They are still nonstick, with very little cooking oil needed. I adore the baking set-it is perfect in every way. The tea kettle is beautiful and works like a charm. The sqaureware set is also awesome-the griddle pan makes the BEST grilled cheese and I used the grill pan for paninis and they came out amazingly well. I do have a couple complaints. The handles get incredibly hot. Yes, there’s a bump that warns not to touch beyond a certain point, but despite this feature, I have sustained a number of burns. Worse, I placed the double burner griddle in the oven and removed it about twenty minutes later and set it upon the stovetop. The handles sit upon the top on the pan and I ended up getting a really nasty rectangular burn when my arm came into contact with the hot handle. It had been sitting out for some time, I was shocked that it was still lava-level hot! Now I know my burns are due to my carelessness, but I do think they conduct an immense amount of heat and can be a negative feature for some. Also, the storage contains are heavy and difficult to open. I just noticed that the lid on my largest containers is broken! I have NO clue how it happened. It looks as though someone sliced into it, which I know is definitely not the case. I am extremely disappointed by this. abut overall, I absolutely love Caraway pots and pans. I think they are well worth the price if you commit to taking good care of them.

Thanks for the review! I did want to point out that recent studies looking at the PFOA non stick chemical in Teflon known as PTFE is in fact being considered a potentially toxic chemical by the EPA. I think there is some merit to the ceramic coating being healthier compared to any Teflon coating, either pre or post 2014.

[@BorediththeUSA]

I bought mine about a year ago. For about 2 months it was fantastic. Scratching happens very easily, so be careful of it even bumping against anything in your cabinets. One of my roommates used it on high heat with out knowing you were not supposed to. After that one time the coasting was damaged and after every use since it has gotten worse, even on low heat. After one year it’s about as non stick as stainless steel, but without the ability of scouring it. Complete waste of money

[@SuzyQ77]

😮 wow... that's terrible. Def not buying these

[@courtneyallisonbrown]

I've had mine for a bit over two years now and they are horrific. The first year-ish was great - after that, everything started eroding away, even with correct care. Not durable in the least and extremely frustrating to have spent such a chunk of cash on the set. Totally awful.

[@Laksmine]

I have the same experience! And never left it on high heat still same results, waist of money

[@StefanieMay5]

Same here!!! Had mine for over two years now and at first they were terrific!! Now I'm unable to cook eggs without it taking massive amount of fat/oil to even make it non stick and even at that it still sticks. I use it daily for eggs. Pretty disappointed I did just love these pans. The others I have that do not get daily use of "frying" are fine. The search continues!

[@AllTimeAesthetic]

I thought in the review he said it was supposed to be able to withstand high heat?

[@haileynichelle8343]

Thank you so much for your candid review! Whether the pan retains its non stick properties over time was EXACTLY the question I had when I saw the commercial.

[@canoeshoe]

I would also note that PFOAs are in our water supply. We need a better alternative to Caraway and teflon pans.

[@alcapulong7515]

After watching your video I’m glad I learned how to season cast iron. Eggs don’t stick, it’s cheap, it’s free of chemicals and it lasts forever.

[@ctguitarguy8510]

Eh, "seasoning" cast iron or carbon steel, which is just a thinner version of cast iron, doesn't remotely equate to what ceramics do. I have all of the above. You have to use WAY more grease/oil/butter etc to get eggs not to stick.

[@ACitizenOfOurWorld]

Thank you. The Made in China label paired with the premium price makes it a no-go.

[@karamash4303]

I bought one of the Caraway 8 inch skillets for primarily making an egg or two in the morning, and so far it's working great. For most other needs like boiling water for pasta, searing veggies, making sauces etc our set of stainless pans is the way to go. I have had expensive calphalon pans wear out after a few years of careful gentle use, and I find cast iron and carbon steel to be too heavy for regular use.

[@EZBISME]

This is the correct answer. I wouldn't buy a whole set personnaly, but a couple pans for quick frying is great. If you need to use very high heat to sear, use stainless steel or cast iron. THese work for making something simple like eggs, grilled cheese, caesedilla, etc.

[@1977felisha]

I just bought a new set for half the price at our local Habitat for Humanity Restore. I read in the literature that if the outside stains, soak it in baking soda & vinegar. Has anyone tried that method? I also got their full bakeware set for half price at the same place. They were unused returns that Caraway donated to the charity for resale.

[@AJ-jx5gz]

I did too - both sets! Even half price is a bit steep if they don’t hold up. I read not to use olive oil😥

[@tangerinehippo]

I use olive oil and it's been working perfectly!

[@fancynancy2888]

This is why I do not use non-stick/ceramic cookware. No matter how low or high the price, they all have the same issues and you pay a price for convenience of non-stick. I prefer cast iron and stainless steel -both are workhorses and I don’t have to baby them. Cast iron has much initial maintenance, but, gets better and easier with each use.

[@PrudentReviews]

Agreed. With the right seasoning/maintenance/cooking techniques cast iron or carbon steel and stainless steel is all you need, but the convenience of non-stick is appealing.

[@donnajaemoon]

That’s all I use, too - cast iron and stainless. And I’m considering a carbon steel pan. But absolutely no non-stick.

What pots & pans should I look at as a cancer survivor?

[@nancyneyedly4587]

Teflon is also used in many biomedical implants like stents and joint replacements, jaw implants, all kinds of things because it is inert and harmless in the body. I appreciate you mentioning how Teflon is manufactured differently today. No one should be heating it above 500F. Also, there are many other materials in the kitchen tat when heated beyond their capacity release harmful fumes as well, handles of certain pots and pans for example, certain plastic and silicone utensils. I've tried the "ceramic" coated pans and they are garbage after a few months. Stainless steel is my go to.

Not heated at high temperatures with a layer of oil on top though

[@KaleHello]

Agreed, Teflon is in everything we use. Water as well, life moves on. I use all clad stainless steel and cast iron for steak

I’m really surprised at the wear of your pan. I’ve had mine for over 2 years and it still looks perfect. My stove is a glass top and I don’t use any metal utensils. I didn’t purchase the whole set but bought 2 of the pans as I really need a smaller pan as I love making omelettes. The non stick function still works for me. I’m used to taking care of high end stuff as I own a lot of Le Creuset. I generally clean them up with a non abrasive soft sponge.

I always lift up my pans to pour out of them, and love to have curved, slim edges for this reason!

[@PrudentReviews]

From my full review, “The sides of the pans are straight, which helps contain ingredients, but without flared rims, it’s harder to pour liquids or slide food from the pan to a plate. This could be a pro or a con, depending on how you plan to use the pan most often.” Personally I like flared rims since I make a lot of pan sauces. prudentreviews.com/caraway-cookware-review/

The loss of the nonstick property after a few months was hugely disappointing with my caraway. I kept it clean but it didn't matter. Would not recommend.

[@PrudentReviews]

Unfortunately, that's the main downside of almost all "ceramic" non-stick cookware.

[@dasmonikus]

@@PrudentReviews Are the high-end makers better in that regard? If so, what are they doing different? I tried to find if the metal used makes a difference (iron vs aluminum) but couldn't get an answer.

[@PrudentReviews]

Pretty much all ceramic non-stick cookware will lose its non-stick properties within a year or so (depending on how much you use it). That is the case with all brands, including Caraway, GreenPan, and others. The metal underneath won't impact the effectiveness of the coating. Your best bet is to buy non-stick cookware with a PTFE coating. It's usually black or dark gray, and "PTFE" or "Teflon" will be somewhere in the product description. PTFE non-stick won't last forever, but it usually outlasts ceramic by at least 2X. Made In, Misen, All-Clad HA1, and Calphalon are good brands to consider. I'm posting a video about "how to make non-stick pans last longer" next week, so check back in about a week.

[@punkofmudd]

On their website is says no PTFE, so now I'm confused. What other non stick ceramic options do you recommend?

[@PrudentReviews]

That’s correct, Caraway’s nonstick coating is not made of PTFE (aka Teflon)

[@galo3917]

All non stick coatings fail with time. I had all kinds of coated pans, both ceramic and PTFE, from various brands, including some very expensive German ones - AMT, Woll and Berndes. They all failed after 1-4 years. I also had a host of pans from local brands (usually made in China) that were mediocre at best and failed quickly. At least in my case, pans with ceramic coatings proved inferior to those with PTFE. Now I only use (and recommend) cheaper, but not less durable, Tefal or OXO pans (PTFE coated), only on low to medium heat and only when I really have to - I use my steel clad (Cuisinart and OXO), carbon steel (De Buyer) or cast iron (Lodge) pans whenever possible. With time I learned how to reduce food sticking and how to quickly clean them.

[@dashdeception]

I am confused about the heat tolerance because they say to go no higher than medium on the stove top. Then you stick them in a 550 degree oven. I have seen people do reviews after two years that say the non stick still works but the pans looks bad. The perfect heat distribution is interesting I have never had a pan that was that like that.

While valid, I've babied all 3 of the ceramic pan's I've tried (never high heat, hand wash, only a soft sponge, only plastic wood or silicone utensils, never stacked, and never in an oven), and they've all seemed to last 1/3 of the time as my inexpensive t-fal before the performance starts to tank.

Le Creuset enameled cast iron is fantastic (although pricey)

@@PrudentReviews yeah! that’s why she’s only getting two pieces. I’m leaning pot and skillet.

I’ve had my caraway set for years. Any cookware I get, I don’t expect the exterior to remain spotless. I use the 💩 out of my cookware. Honestly, this set has been the best I’ve owned. Teflon coatings still flake off over time. No thanks. The caraway cooking surface has held up very well for me. But I’m not using metal utensils.

What do you think "Our Place" cookware? Which is better?

I’m in the process of testing it and will be posting my review soon…
