Martha Stewart Stainless Steel Sauté Pan

I wish I could give these pans zero stars. After months of struggling with them, I feel completely misled by all the hype around “premium stainless steel.” These are hands-down the worst pans I’ve ever used in my kitchen. From day one, they have never worked as advertised. I followed every bit of advice on how to properly heat them, preheated carefully, used just the right amount of oil, and even adjusted the heat levels. Still, everything sticks—eggs, veggies, meats—you name it. It’s impossible to get a good sear or cook anything without leaving half the food fused to the bottom. I spend more time scraping and cleaning than cooking, and it’s beyond frustrating. The worst part is that these pans aren’t cheap, so I really expected better. I thought the sticking might improve over time, but if anything, it’s just gotten worse. It’s beyond disappointing, especially since I invested in these with the expectation they’d last. I’m past the return window, but I’m really hoping the company will make this right. I honestly feel like I’m due a refund for this nightmare purchase. Please save yourself the hassle and look elsewhere if you want pans that actually work!
