how long does the non-stick surface work?

Just a couple of months and then it stopped working, so I won't buy this again!

I've only had this only since May, I think.I find that if you cook on low heat foods do not stick. But on slightly high heat like medium-high ,it does stick .It does have a nice smooth ceramic surface which is easy to clean.I have no idea how long the non-stick surface will work

I've been having it for 4 months, and it has no problem. But I wash it very carefully every time.

Used my non stick twice and have had no problems with sticking. You do have to spray cooking oil

No, I consider it much better then non stick. It is heavy enough and polished finish so cleaning is not a problem at all.

It does have a non-stick surface but the item is small. Room for one large steak and on the smooth grill part, I would be afraid to fry an egg on it. If you're cooking for one person, it's great.

Works fine for me. I use a bit of non-stick spray oil and wipe down with paper towel. 6 months now no problem at all......

Put the pan on the counter. Pour a glass of water in the pan so the bottom of the pan and the label are completely covered. Let soak for a few hours. It will slide right off. No goo or residue left at all. I left mine sitting for six hours, because I got busy and forgot about it. Perhaps an hour or two would be sufficient, not sure.

This depends on the surface prep. With good adhesion we expect the product to last up to 5 years. Please read through the instructions clearly before applying for any necessary surface preparation.

Sorry, I do not know the answer. I've had mine 5 years, and I love this griddle. I use it almost daily and the non-stick surface is still perfect.

It has the non stick surface. I purchased this a year ago to replace the non stick griddle on my stove.

I use it with PAM spray and eggs do not stick. However I am very unhappy with the pan. A lot of the coating has flaked off in 6 months of gentle use. I gave my first pan to my daughter who liked it. It was fine after years of use. Then I bought the new one and that is the one which is so poor.

I bought a 12 inch aluminum model with non stick surface. I expect the non stick surface to last about two years and then will have to replace with another. That has been my previous experience. The life of the surface determines the life of the pan.

I set a timer and go to a different room. Be careful because it might vibrate itself off the counter. I find that the ingredients stick to the sides so the first 5 minutes or so I scrape them down with a spatula or plastic spoon. Then it seems to work better.

I don't know, but we are on our second one. The first one lasted about six years, not because of any mechanical failure but because the non-stick surface wasn't so non-stick anymore. We replaced it about five years ago, and the latest one is still going strong.

You have to put extremely hot water in the pan, just covering the paddle. Soak only about 10-15 mins, then comes off pretty easily. If you let it soak till the water starts cooling, it will stay stuck.

The surface is durable, but you could damage it if you use metal utensils. I always use something that is safe for a non stick surface and these last me a very long time.

It does not have a non-stick coating. It's pure anodized aluminum and cleans up easily.

Ours is definitely NOT "non stick". And I should know, my wife insists that I wash it after we use it. That's not fair. help me!
