Summary
CNET's top ceramic pick, heating more evenly than any other nonstick pan tested — ceramic or PTFE. A strong choice for cooks who want PTFE-free cooking without sacrificing performance.
Wirecutter's top pick and CNET's best overall after 20+ hours of testing. Delivers professional-grade nonstick performance at a price that makes replacing it every few years painless.
Pros
- CNET found it heated most evenly of all nonstick pans tested — ceramic or otherwise
- Released food exceptionally well in CNET's testing
- PTFE-free for those concerned about traditional nonstick coatings

- Consistently top-ranked by Wirecutter after testing 27 nonstick pans since 2016
- CNET named it best overall after 20+ hours of testing including egg frying and heat evenness
- Affordable enough (~$35) to replace without guilt when coating wears
- Widely available and recommended across multiple Reddit communities
Cons
- Significantly more expensive than PTFE alternatives
- Ceramic coatings generally degrade faster than PTFE with high-heat use
- Not as widely available in physical retail stores
- PTFE coating will eventually wear out and require replacement
- Not induction-compatible (standard version)
- Not a 'buy it for life' pan — longevity is limited like all nonstick
Our take
Most ceramic pans disappoint, but Made In is the exception. If avoiding PTFE matters to you, this is the one ceramic pan that actually performs like a real nonstick.
This is the pan to buy. It wins on every axis — performance, price, and community trust — and both Reddit and expert reviewers keep landing on it independently.
