Tefal pan non stick flaking

Katiehound

I'm just wondering what 'marblestone' is that Salter are using on their pans. I don't think it is the same as teflon- but doesn't state what it is exactly. A good bit cheaper than the Greenpan pans

Have found the original packaging and it states 5 year guarantee. Also have the order confirmation and it was purchased 21/1/2019. 
The guarantee doesn’t cover scratches or discolouration so might be worth getting in touch.

Teflon softens at high temperatures. To the extent that a metal spatula can easily damage it.

I just accept that a non-stick frying pan will have a lifetime of a few years and don’t buy the top of the range.

I then use a wok or cast-iron pan for the very high temperature stuff, and I’ve a really nice le creuset sauté pan for things like risottos.

Yes. I actually bought the Tefal Intuition frying pan for a recipe that requires oven use for 15 mins.
Also went for a stir fry pan with a lid for oriental cooking and curries.

I'm trying to get rid of all my nonstick pans now, after watching an excellent Mark Ruffalo movie, Darlk Waters (2019) which horrified me. Dark Waters (2019 film) - Wikipedia I'm now buyng iron with added arm workout. The Range has some at decent prices. 

It depends when you bought them.

If you'd watched the film Dark Waters, you wouldn't be cooking with damaged teflon.

Can thoroughly recommend Green Pan. Not cheap, but very very non-stick with no nasty chemicals. A good investment IMO.

We've got this one, which is on special offer at the moment https://www.greenpan.co.uk/shop/frying-pans/mayflower_fryingpan.html?dwvar_mayflower__fryingpan_size=28cm&quantity=1

Yes, not sure about the Teflon thing. I thought the use of PFOA in it was stopped years ago.
My cheap supermarket saucepans and Ready Steady Cook stir fry pan are all non stick.
Green Pan looks good.

Yes, it was. Back in 2013.

Dont be tempted by "copper stone" Pans , not very good, also if you leave "fry light" will ruin a pan if accidentally left on heat.
