Our Place Always Titanium Pan Pro Review: Is It Worth It? | JON KUNG

[@pjtje]

I live in an area with a teflon factory and they gave a lot of people cancer so i have beef with none stick pans. This sounds like a very interesting alternative.

[@jonkung]

I think it’s hope for people who are trying to get away from no stick like teflon

[@bubaks2]

Teflon is pretty much inert and doesn’t react to our biology. U can literally eat it and it will cone out in ur poop. Does not cause cancer. If u think that factory caused cancer, I imagine they are dumping toxic chemicals somewhere in ur area?

[@patrickpankratz6077]

Not to diminish anything because either way it’s awful, but wasn’t it the PFOA used in manufacturing that caused cancer not the Teflon itself? That’s why regulation was passed to ban it

[@facelesstruth4961]

​@@jonkung do you know if they are free from lead, cadmium, PFAS, PFOA, and PTFE ?

[@Selsmittenxo]

Apprently theyre free of pfoas. Not sure of the rest ​@@facelesstruth4961

❤ and the adhd sprinkled on

[@jonkung]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@austonianb]

Great summation of the considerations at the end, Jon. Thank you for the thoughtful review (and reminders on how best to use stainless steel pans). And I couldn’t help but stare at the wall mounted light panels in the basement. They’re ALIVE!

[@stanthechanman]

Saw this tip on another channel - you can use a paper coffee filter instead of paper towels to spread the oil on the pan. It won't tear up like a paper towel.

[@NwinDii]

Well I'll be damned. An egg pan that can stand up to the abuse of my family members. Durability not standing... Would love to see a long term review in a few months like 3, 6, 9, 12.

[@jonkung]

That’s my plan!

[@zendlern]

If it is titanium and the aluminum is a high heat alloy, I’d imagine this pan is indestructible unless it warps or cracks.

[@china1013]

Yep, like everyone, I've had pans that were awesome out of the box, but then a year or two later...a shit show.

[@blackfeathersonangel]

This is very helpful thank you for your hard work!

[@jonkung]

You're very welcome!

[@andrewzach1921]

I am jealous of your sink. Ours is really small compared to it. That was a well made video and it answered a lot of questions i had about the pan. Thanks for the video

[@jeffreysmith5779]

Thank you! Just bought one and your demonstration made me feel I bought something of value! Thank you Jon!

[@jackyfan]

I'm looking forward to your report oin 6 months! One thing I wanted to ask to look out for is if the fond buildup can still be reasonably 'stewed' out and how it will taste - which leads me to also wanting to ask, how it performs for starting off stew ingredients and for curries! Thanks so much Jon :3

[@_kwak]

Was just searching for advice on induction compatible pans such as stainless steel, carbon steel, and now I have this lovely consideration too!

[@TheNewCoalition]

200 dollar pan tho =/

[@StanWatt.]

I made such cheesy frisbees this very evening for my dinner! I have no non-stick pans anymore because of the toxicity of the coating. I'm sticking with my cast irons to work out while I cook. Great vid, bud. ;) S

[@jonkung]

Thank you!!

[@arte2713]

Will check in within the next few months! Thank you for your video, and the tests and passion behind it!

[@MichelleHotchkissArt]

For people commenting they won’t give up their favorite cast iron or stainless pans for this, it’s not actually expected for you to. This will appeal to people who do not have CI or stainless steel and are trying to find a safe and long lasting alternative. It’s irritating they make only one huge size pan. I would buy a small fry pan before ever buying this huge pan. Thanks for the review!

[@brashawnsiriboe]

Sooo glad to see your posts back on my TL I love your vids and haven’t been getting notified.

[@jonkung]

I’ve been putting out shorts every day since Christmas so definitely double check your settings if you want to be notified. Although getting pinged every day might be a lot.

[@gadgetgirl5399]

To spread your oil use a silicone small brush, they are great. Loved your video, thank you!

[@nicoledavis5115]

How would it compare to a hexclad?

[@BabaAuRhum-68]

Thank you for this video. I suggest you use a medium silicone brush to spread your oil in the pan.

[@Joannaluc]

My thoughts exactly 😀

[@tyronejoihnson7046]

Love his eloquent review style. Full charisma. Had to subscribe!

[@jonkung]

Thank you 😊

[@meinkanta]

I have pet birds so can’t have any teflon etc. and have been curious about this pan. Thanks for the review!

[@suzanned9878]

Just got mine and excited to use it.

[@facelesstruth4961]

Would you happen to know if they are free from lead, cadmium, PFAS, PFOA, and PTFE ?

[@robbeason]

Kewl! Thanks! - Looking forward to the follow-ups, and then maybe I'll pull the trigger.

[@MichaelJosephJr934]

First time viewer. Subbed! Outstanding!

[@jamesrightasrain795]

Silicone brush for the oil?

[@sinepari9160]

I got mine today (the ALWAYS)... I seasoned it gradually up to 500 and then put it into the oven at 500 for two hours. It has some nice patina now :)

[@arcanum3000]

Informative video! I've watched a couple others, but yours is the first that really went in-depth with the cooking experience. Another mitigating factor with the cost might be that, at least in principle, someone with very limited space could have this as their one do-it-all frying pan.

[@jonkung]

Only a few more weeks till it do the 3 month follow up

[@novitrix9671]

I have watched the video and am pleased the pan performs. Regardless I favor cast iron still.

[@jonkung]

This might serve as a good supplemental less stick pan IF it is as durable as they claim.

[@hobotogo]

Great video, Jon! I liked how you emphasized how the cook and pan can adapt to each other. So many reviews consider the cook as static and pans better or worse along their various attributes.

[@TotaledThunder]

This was a great video. I'd love to see more on this style

[@whitest_kyle]

I'd love if they made this in some more shapes, high walls are a bit annoying for things like frying eggs and trying to get a spatula in there

[@Just_forfun9140]

Yes, I was thinking of the same. Pancakes, crepes, flour batter with vegetables in it to make like a pancake and lift with a spatula as you would from a pan without walls probably is going to be difficult it seems, especially if you want to do oil less cooking. He has a spatula, but didn't try with it, lets see in his next video maybe he will show.

[@markwigdor7505]

Thank you for your very interesting and very thorough review.

[@rexxpedition]

11:25 What is this grinder you are using for the pepper?

[@ChloeWong-nb5ck]

The only thing I want to know is, can this thing fry cotton tofu cubes without making scramble? I’ve got that same demeyere proline pan too, she makes beautiful crispy tofu but I can barely lift the damn thing.

[@jonkung]

I’ll bet you could. I’ll test it out next.

[@ChloeWong-nb5ck]

@@jonkung that would be amazing, thank you so much! If that works out, it’s going straight in the cart 🍳

[@janem3575]

Fantastic review! I was sketchy with their original pan. Also not convinced with the Gordon Ramsey pans. This titanium pan has me intrigued. But that is, indeed, a steep price tag for a 10"er

[@eddieyutub]

I wish they would make one that seals steam without the opening for the wooden spatula with custom hole! Go tell them! that's the game stopper for me.

[@botch3936]

If you slice thru the band of fat vertically around the perimeter of the steak every couple of inches, it won't curl on you. Great review!

[@dwaynerobare1153]

Thanks for the video. Just a few things. Use a brush; also not sure I would use a wooden utensil to maneuver or flip the egg.

[@davidphu7403]

Great Vid. Fun video to watch. Like your attitude, honest and informative.

[@NoZenith]

Thank you very much. I'm legitimately shopping Hestan Nano Bond because I want a one and done and something slightly easier and more durable than stainless. I had written off this brand but maybe I'll put off buying the Hestan until you come out with an update on this ❤

[@jonkung]

Hestans Patent expired on those pans as I understand. There will be cheaper versions soon

[@NoZenith]

@jonkung thank you for the response! This is actually one of the only reasons I haven't bought into them already! I'm still considering buying one of them for a main pan and then waiting it out for more affordable options to show up (or their price to drop)

[@jessicazaytsoff1494]

I agree on the french omelettes!

[@milleniumslayer]

Thanks for the review! Curious if you can do scrambled eggs with it though?

[@plaid7273]

Excellent review!

[@gudmane4279]

Would be interesting to see something like pancakes or French toast cooked in the pan, I wonder if a batter thin enough would fill the holes in the grid and get stuck?

[@jonkung]

I’ll try that next

[@yunniekal]

I'm thinking... dip a brush into the oil and brush it on might coat the entire pan surface? ( still watching vod)

[@jonkung]

That’s a good suggestion. Wish I thought of that though I’m not keen on having another thing to regularly wash while using the pan.

[@AffinityPhoto]

I have 3 questions that didn’t come up in your review: 1- when thr lid is on and you are steaming food, does the handle get blasted with high temp heat enough to burn your hand? 2- how would it stand up to Barkeepers Friend? 3- thanks!

[@NaturalMentalHealthTreatments]

Very useful review, I’m gonna buy one.

[@m1ket]

Hey Jon. Great video. It's given me a lot of confidence in potentially purchasing one of these. I wondered what your thoughts were on the spatula slot near the handle and then the inability to enclose steam. Is that a negative for you? I should add I am not a good cook! I'm trying get rid of forever-chemicals from my pans.

[@jonkung]

I’ve never really had an issue with it. Even when pan frying dumplings where you need the steam to stay in it doesn’t seem to matter much. Only thing it that it can get a little hot on the handle if you steam cook that way for a long time but a towel loves that and it’s a minor nuisance.

[@FunctionallyLiteratePerson]

You know, that's impressive

[@jonkung]

Like… actually tho.

[@jlelso]

What brand are the plates you were eating the steak and fish on?

[@jonkung]

CB2. lol they were left over from when I used them at my old studio kitchen

[@analisha15]

i love a subtle “how the pan handles” pun right as you grabbed the handle 😂

[@jonkung]

We love a sophisticated consumer of content 😌

[@GuyCruls]

using a pastry brush would be very efficient to spread the oil.

[@mtadc1545]

With pans the best test is long term longevity and non stick properties after like 2 years

[@BitterSweetCold]

Awesome review, you checked every box that’s needed to get a thorough understanding of how well it works. I was hoping someone would do the cheese test .

[@jonkung]

Thank you 😊 I’m trying to consider actual home use in my testing.

[@BitterSweetCold]

@@jonkung Thanks for the reply, and the review 😊.

[@tybellsprout]

Edit #2, can't wait for electric bugaloo, commented before the ending, I should have known, my apologies for the disrespect. I'd be interested in a follow up video after a month or two once you've put the durability to the test. I do really appreciate you doing "no frills" dishes like fish, cheese, and eggs (ingredients that tend to stick) with care to minimalize outside variables.I Edit : I really appreciate your reviews and your honesty (as well as your recipes and other media of course)

[@jonkung]

I will be doing more on this for sure. As of now it’s my go to healthy meat pan because I can sear meats with very little oil.

[@chris00gcg]

You should consistently use this pan and give us updates, maybe a 3,6,9,12 month update. I’d watch it and based on it maybe I’d even get a pan 😂

[@Ang-n9p]

I… want that steak. A lot. I must go grocery shopping first but it’s a big week

[@jonkung]

I hope you get a big steak

[@Frenchboathorn1]

That's wild whattt, cool video man

[@TheNewCoalition]

The reason the steak lifted off and it wasn't a complete sear is because of the tendon on the edge that became tense due to the heat and made it go concave, you gotta snip that part with a scissor first and that won't happen.

[@BlackSeedOil20]

So, Our place still have aluminum?

[@jatc11yey]

Excuse me sir but where can we buy your shirt?!?!?!?!

[@jonkung]

Lisa is gonna have them available soon!!

[@Tom-ts5qd]

Maybe use oil spray to coat the whole pan.

[@omyelia]

Loved this video… I’m influenced lol. Does the handle get hot?

[@jonkung]

Not noticeably so. Careful taking it out of an oven tho

[@stacyign]

Please test frozen pie (like scallion pie) and pancakes

[@4PMilk]

If it's got no coating at all, why is the inside black like teflon?

[@jonkung]

I think that’s just the coloration of the titanium

[@BBBYpsi]

to spread the oil around I would just use a silicone basting brush. Just a thought. New subsciber

[@wanttoplae]

Interesting pan. I wonder how the “non-stick” works after some longevity?

[@jonkung]

I just went nuts on it with a metal spatula and then threw it in the dishwasher. I’m not being gentle at all. Will report back in three months.

[@N3pea]

I think I'll stick with the SS for now. Tfs.

[@marty754]

Mate u sound like someone who has spend decades in IT industry .. we all are jaded and cynical about 90% of most junk on market LOL , keep up the great work !!! Love the presentation .. will I buy it ? Well am old IT so am jaded and cynical LOL .... who knows...

[@jonkung]

If you can wait, I’m gonna do a follow up three and six months later. Will find out if it’s truly worth it then.

[@marty754]

LOL I just bought one ... for fun .. lets see how I go ....

[@hellaSwankkyToo]

"oh. well, then i guess i should STFU." 🤭 that tickled TH out of me!! 😅🤣😂🤭

[@gbird5000]

I want one of those Control Freaks so bad but 1500 bucks is like 3 weeks of work

[@truthveritas8730]

My everyday $40 Ceramic GreenPan is waaaay more non-stick than that $150 Titanium Hipster Pan. Granted, with everyday use and abuse (with soft silicon tools and gentle washing) it lost its mojo after 8 months. But $40 bucks that works is $40 bucks that works!

[@j7404]

$40 is more expensive when you have to keep replacing it.

[@HBS82]

Silicone brush to spread oil works better than wooden spatula. Duh. Other reviewers dissed the goofy notch in edge for the $3 wooden spatula, which points steam DIRECTLY to handle if using the lid! The self-storing spatula seems like an odd thing to trade off for a steam leak like that Lid is VERY thin (0.7 mm).

[@zendlern]

Durability of stainless and nonstick? Cast iron seasoned properly is both of these

[@meinkanta]

Durability of stainless and LOW MAINTENANCE of non-stick. Not every home cook has the lifestyle for babying a pan. I’m not going to buy cast iron only to throw it in the dishwasher 😂

[@Matthewtron3030]

Don't get me wrong, I love my cast iron. But the thing is a brick when it comes to weight, and I workout a lot. I've already chipped the exterior of my stove trying to pick that thing up and toss food around haha! It's also harder to store than stainless or this titanium pan (ours just lives on top of the stove because it's too heavy to hang and we have limited cupboards). Also looks like you can use way less oil than you normally need in a cast iron pan. I'm staying tuned for his next update for sure.

[@DrZhenya]

Thanks for the review! Love your stuff! I wish OurPlace would ship to EU as well but oh well :-( Same goes for the cool Control Freak induction you have there is unavailable in EU for now, at a reasonable price. Would love to know what you used as a soap dispenser and the little brush to clean the pans :O Thank you

[@novitrix9671]

Well produced thorough video!

[@jonkung]

Thank you!

[@LightStar150]

Wow thank you for this. Subbed

[@DP-jaja]

“Let’s just do it do it!” My new motto!!! ~Jajamyun Guy 😂

[@BitterSweetCold]

The stainless steel pan you weighed it against is the heaviest there is , the Demeyere Atlantis ( Aka proline ) is known to be mega heavy) . Other than that , awesome review. 😊

[@jonkung]

It’s damn heavy but it’s a stunning pan.

[@BitterSweetCold]

@@jonkung I have it too but it’s a learning curve I guess 😅. What kind of food would you cook in it vs what kind you wouldn’t and might use the always pan pro instead if I may ask ? It’s the heat retention of the Demeyere that I’m afraid of 🤣.

[@jonkung]

I always sear steaks in it. Anything that need browning. Still the best induction cookware out there I think.

[@necavenue]

You could spread the oil with a brush. That's how I seasoned my Hexclad Wok prior to first time use. That pan obviously works, but it's very expensive too...😉I'll probably still get one though 😆BTW salmon should be cooked until the internal temperature reaches a level where it kills any parasites that may be present.

[@lizard944]

Got nothing on my well-seasoned cast iron Griswold pans.

[@SpicyHotPot12]

There is a coating. It’s titanium dioxide

[@zebratroopfan6695]

If it still looks good in a couple years maybe. Meanwhile I’m going to continue using my cast iron, stainless and carbon steel.

[@northcoastcopper]

That grid pattern on that egg white is so unappealing I think it gave me trypophobia. Also I was hoping to see an egg test without bringing the pan past the temp where a plain stainless surface wouldn't stick either - I get not liking French omelettes or soft colorless whites, but it's no surprise that eggs release easily with butter when they're browned that deeply, the pan looks to be past the Liedenfrost point there. Sticking issues with uncoated pans are usually in lower temp cooking, how does it do with cooking eggs gently?

[@lulu8lala8haha]

I want to know how the pan perform in 6 month of heavy cooking.

[@jonkung]

Will report back

[@triaxe-mmb]

A long term update woudl be good assuming you still have this pan...

[@marcbennett9232]

would love to see this long term before I shell out 200 dollars to a pan..... but if this is even moderately non stick with the ability to use metal utensils without destroying, it will be worth it.

[@viktorrietveld]

But can you scrub it with .... like scorched earth?

[@jonkung]

I used a blow torch on it to quicken my sear

[@BrotherWood]

After watching this video, I watched another video about the pan and they claimed that the titanium in this pan is just in the titanium oxide coating which it does have. Video was from cult flav

[@jonkung]

That’s wild because I know titanium dioxide is white food coloring.

[@nomanejane5766]

It has three different layers of steel. The coating is just regular titanium.

[@kmattar]

Interesting to see if this titanium “coating” is durable consider the price tag!

[@cultflav]

​@@jonkung It is titanium oxide per the coating's patent (and a detail I got wrong in the review was conflating titanium (IV) oxide - aka titanium dioxide - with titanium oxide).

[@cultflav]

@@nomanejane5766 Not quite! It's titanium oxide in a rutile form per the patent.
