Yeah. They were rubbish.

And ProCook offer a "10 year guarantee" on Salt & Pepper Grinders too! But you 'chose' to throw yours in the bin!
Procook salt / pepper grinders and a couple of utensils we bought 2 years ago are now in the bin after falling apart - I wouldnt recommend them at all. Our Circulon pans are 17 years old and only one of the set - the heavily used one has lost its coating on the outside.
And up to 5.1%cashback from TCB.

Why do companies keep putting "carbon" steel? If anything that's a bad point.
We have tried their customer service - very long winded and stressful.
Anyone ever had anything circulon replaced due to non stickness? I bought set up circulon pans few years back & use them 3 or4 times each week. Am finding the nonstick no longer working well.
Cheers - was tempted by these but won’t bother. Don’t really need anyway!
It's maybe range specific. Circulon do a few different pans so maybe we have had different ones. I've tested the other brands you mentioned and I think Tefal are firmly in the 'cheap and cheerful' category - they're not the worst but they don't last like premium brands. The Jamie Oliver licenced one I had were a little better. Scoville I think is completely overrated as a brand - I know it's extremely popular on HUKD but it's not for me! Le Creuset is a brilliant brand but I only own stoneware/bakeware, rather than cookware so can't comment. Judge are good but not up to the standard of Circulon in my experience. Premier, Caraway, Bialetti, Staub, etc. all very decent but expensive and again I'd still choose Circulon over them.

Just got mine today saying it is ready to collect (y)
I've still not had a dispatched or collection email, have you?
Check your emails, it does give you date of when it’ll be ready towards the bottom. Funnily enough I thought the same thing yesterday! Mine says 21st March. Can’t believe it’s so slow (lol)
I chose click and collect but my order doesn't seem to have been dispatched yet?! Anyone collected theirs?
You can buy bottles where you can hand pump some air into it, and you can fill these with regular oil. Or I just use a pastry brush to apply a little oil. I've not narrowed down the culprit for my recently ruined pan, but think it may be an Aldi vegetable oil. Or it's perhaps having used a "spreadable" butter. Olive oil (if low temperature) most veg oils, butter and coconut or nut oils should be fine.



Same here. I’ve really impressed with their customer service. One of my pans arrived with some minor manufacturing damage and they replaced it with a new pan delivered the next day by DPD. They also confirmed that the “deal” was a ‘major pricing error’. I doubt that I’ll buy pans from anyone else in the future tbh, my experience with them has been so good
Just to give a shout out to Circulon customer services after Hermes only managed to deliver part of my order - mysteriously the expensive pan set simply 'disappeared' - how strange. Got in touch with customer services and they dispatched another one (via DPD) within hours which was with me a couple of days later. I know that is the kind of thing they are supposed to do in this type of situation but the lack of hassle and speed of response was nice to see.
Have you got the SteelShield set delivered? Mine is still unfulfilled..
I also had this set! I think it was delivered either Friday or Saturday! I only really looked at two of the pans and I’m happy with them! I showed them to a chef and he was quite impressed with them given the price! I also bought wok and regretted not getting the larger version! With hindsight I may have bought some utensils and baking trays!
Anyone still waiting for their order to be fulfilled? Mine is still showing unfulfilled.. I had the SteelShield 5 piece panset in my order...

Back available for £9.93! Unexpire?
Expired
Haha yes I also get the rust dripping out. These are only good if you cover it with foil and not wash them (lol)
Completely agree. Got a set fron costco. The inside rim on the edges are also not coated so when washed in a dishwasher rust forms and slowly drips out. And yes stain Easy and very hard to clean. Disappointing as their other products are very good
Thx op

Oos
Best thing ever, never let me down.... Expensive (ish) but worth every penny.
These are some pans and the lifetime warranty has been decent when I've needed it


Circulon are excellent. Got the pans and trays in my kitchen.
These are excellent, But for this set its cheaper to buy from somewhere like https://www.ecookshop.co.uk/ecookshop/circulon-ultimum-bakeware.asp £54.96 if you add the items one by one. With free postage.

yeah interesting test, stick ur oven on at 180 and put aluminium in let it get to temperature then add sugar and see if it melts. Melting point of sugar is 186, then at 190 it should melt if it doesnt you can use the melting point of sugar as a kind of calibration test :)
These are brilliant, way better than Tefal and probably the best non stick pans out there for the price
Professional.
Thanks for your input. Saved me 38 quid (y)
I had the momentum range of these pans from circulon and experienced similar issues. The non stick will wear off quickly if you put in the dishwasher. The grooves can be a pain to clean (especially on their baking trays) and with some types of food (e.g scrambled eggs, where it’s harder to keep the grooves from filling up with egg then drying out). I think I’d opt for a flat bottom frying pan next time.


Thanks just bought
This set and the black set rotate on Costco deals and when on offer normally this price, sometimes a little cheaper if you get the right deal. The trick with these pans is to NEVER put them in a dishwasher you simply do not have to, after using one let it soak in soapy water for a while if sticky then use a soft plastic bristled brush with fairy liquid or similar to wash it out, it so easy to do, when you then rinse the soap off the inside of the pan will be dry or almost dry, wipe it over with a tea cloth or paper towel job done, thee are the easiest pans ever to clean, I have had mine years and they are like new, when I stack them in a cupboard I use felt dividers that keep them for getting damaged, hope that helps someone. Felt pan protectors, various types available, here is an example https://www.amazon.co.uk/Protectors-Separate-Surfaces-Scratching-XUTONG/dp/B07BHLYNZZ/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=felt+pan+protectors&psr=EY17&qid=1637658539&s=black-friday&sr=1-3-catcorr
I've had a circulon professional pan before and they are great and paid £40 for it with a lid. For the price and what you get they beat your traditional high street brands. I think they are owned by Meyer and circulon is their mid range brand. I've bought and will let you guys know how it is. This set usually sold out and was surprised it came back in stock with the big price reduction!
Don't own a dishwasher. Still had to claim on warranty.. they were good and sent another but that's nitngreat either. For omletttes I've yet to find a really good pan.
Cleaning in the dishwasher will ruin the non stick after a few washes even though dishwasher safe. Don't risk it for the sake of convenience...

Great pan set, price not hot. Has been under £100.
I've got this exact set, I personally think they are superb.
Thanks for feedback - might hang on with current set unless I see a stand out amazing deal. Never really had an issue with food sticking in first place and that is one of reasons I like them - except when I forgot about some potatoes I was boiling for over an hour. Came back to find dry pan with outlines where potatoes once existed. Pan actually cleaned up ok but was always wary I had damaged coating as non stick was never the same so eventually binned.
Had a set of Circulon pans for over 10 years. They're OK but the thing I like least about them is that they're not completely smooth inside so burnt on food gets stuck in the ridges and is a pig to clean. I also have a John Lewis own brand 12inch frying pan almost as old which has no burnt food on as the inside of the pan is completely smooth and therefore easy to clean. If you're thinking of investing in Circulon I'd certainly recommend looking at other brands as well.
5 years ago I bought their best set 'Ultimum". I've had to use their lifetime guarantee twice since then. The coating comes off and the bottom of the pans delaminated. The metal plate peeled off underneath . The guarantee is great though.

If you think Tefal are bad then you won't like these.
"good" and "Tefal" in one sentence ;)
It's not as good as Tefal!
I have had most non stick makes and hey have all failed, circulon are no different and wouldn’t provide a replacement for ur wok as we had been deemed to have used excessive heat ( give me a break it’s a wok for god sake..) also had a set of tefal stainless steel at the same time and these have been amazing. Also bought some aluminium roasting trays from m a catering supplier and these are the best purchases ever. I would recommend a god set of stainless steel at this price as once the coating goes they are throwaway despite being well constructed.
Cant talk on these but ive got the infinite set and there the best pans ive ever used but please remeber only clean woth soft bristle rubber or plastic never anything metal or sharp it will totally ruin them


I do know know that, mine are the circulion infinite range with lifetime warranty but they still peel off after 5 years.
These aren’t the normal pans with a cheap layer of Teflon on them. Mine have lasted 8 years so far.
These work great on induction hobs, take no time at all to heat up. Only issue I have is they scratch very easily. I’ve tried to be really careful with them but the biggest of the pans has scratches down to the metal around the lip
Got this set not too long ago and really happy with it, no signs of wear yet and the non stick is really good. Only thing you're really missing with this is a wok, the various sizes of pans you get cover pretty much any normal cooking.
I've looked at these and the other pans they sell in costco numerous times. I've been so close to buying if it wasn't that on the whole these are pretty big pans. I think I'm just going to have to buy some mid sized seperates.

Same with the oven trays, my 2 got thrown out once everything used to get stuck in the grooves and they were not cheap. My replacement £2 Tesco basic ones have lasted an extra year already!
Bought a set of Circulon pans etc for an induction hob years ago. OK to start with then the grooves get clogged up and it's impossible to clean. Compared to a John Lewis frying pan bought at roughly the same time which is almost like new after 10+ years. Would never buy Circulon again - irrespective of price. Cold.
How do Ninja compare to these? If anyone has them
Same don't think I would buy circulon again for this price. Simply go into Homesense and pick something up for £8-10 a pan.
Bought these 3-4 years back, tried to claim on guarantee, but customer service made it so difficult, I gave up, plenty of alternative out there.

Thanks for posting. Your thread was selected for our Highlights section (highfive)
Good offer, however, I agree on the quality of these. I returned one Circulon roasting tray after one use as the coating just lifted clean away in places. After being constantly on the quest for good non stick bakeware I have to recommend Le Creuset bakeware (the best I have found so far) as the non stick lasts the longest on those. They are quite expensive but are worth it IMO as you don’t have to keep replacing them or scraping food off them. You can often get them on offer or at the outlet shops at Bicester / Cheshire Oaks etc. which makes them a bit more affordable, but they are still pricey.
That's not the only problem. I bought one of these a couple of years ago with a cradle you sit the meat on. The roaster just lost sections of coating after only a couple of uses.
I like this brand. Bought a griddle pan about 15 years ago and it’s brilliant. Cleans really well and works a treat. Bought stuff since too and it’s fine.
I wouldn't touch this brand. I bought a set pf pots & pans, supposed to be induction safe & lifetime guarantee. The non stick coating came off all the pans. I sent photos to them and they wouldn't entertain replacement. I chased them up several times, eventually they said they couldn't find my claim or photos as they'd changed computer systems. I got fed up in the end and threw the pots in the skip.

Ha, great minds, I have sent them photos of my well worn Joseph and Joeseph silicone set and wooden spoons but they haven't accepted them. One time only wouldn't surprise me.
First time I had no bother as well but I did send them a photo of my utensils to show that I had loads of non scratch ones. I wonder if its a one time replacement only based on address, might use a friends address next time as well. Also I had no luck going via the customer services and only got somewhere via their facebook page.
They replaced first time, this time they are telling me it is due to metal in the pan (which I have not done)
Had ours 4 years and need to get them replaced. How do you go about this?

I hardly ever comment, but these pans are not that great. They last a year i would say. Great at first, and for this price, maybe a year of use is worth it, but don't think they are premium or great pans. Better than tefal or student stuff. Just buy with caution.

I see the good things people say here, but still, I seriously doubt a pair of alloy pans is worth almost 60 quid...
classygear, I'm sorry if you find it hard to understand but Circulon produce a wide range of cookware at a variety of quality and price points. I didn't say the new set listed by Costco is in their top tier, I said that I hoped it would be better quality than the previously stocked set. Costco have a lot of buying power and often manufacturers will produce products to specifications unique to Costco. Circulon are guilty of mixing and matching the names of pan sets in their budget ranges to cash in on the reputation of their Infinite range. Many people fall for this kind of marketing. It must be a nightmare for honest companies wanting to offer extended guarantees on their products. Most fair minded people would know if they had treated their possessions with care during use and would not seek replacements if they had been abused. For example, cooking on an open fire and hammering in fence posts is not taking care of a cooking pan, neither is stirring with a fork and cleaning with a Brillo pad. A lifetime is not 300 years unless you are a tree. Yet again, I haven't made any claims about the durability of any Circulon pans other than the Infinite range and these two pans in this deal are in that range.
Bought these a few weeks back after having a lower tier model for several years. Still in use and definitely not as non stick any more but have been highly abused. Superb solid pans if you look after them.

Gosh, why do people still buy nonstick pans? These are terrible, to be honest, they use the same coating on all of them. Coming off very quickly and it does say dishwasher safe, which is not true. They've replaced the whole set, as you get 5 years warranty, but it's not worth it. Decided to go for stainless steel Stellar 5000 and not looking back, amazing quality.
Contrary to this we have now had 3 different pans from the original set replaced for free having sent photos of the damage.
And no I have never used metal utensils only Circulon branded utensils and wooden spoons.
I doubt any non stick pan is dishwasher safe really. So it's a choice of non stick ones in the dishwasher or having to manually wash a few pans everyday, which isn't exactly difficult if you soak them in hot water straight after use.
I do think they would likely have lasted longer without using the dishwasher. 2+ pans to wash a night for 4 years is quite a PITA though. Why advertise as dishwasher safe if they are not? We only ever wash on a low heat Eco wash with quality tablets.

Thanks ordered (y) 🏾
It's mentioned in the first paragraph at the end. They are brilliant for induction here, but for some reason Dyas forgot to put that in. That's exactly what I use them with.
Any good for induction hobs can't see it mentioned

Managed to get £50 refund on my card on my second attempt. Really pick of draw on which agent you get. He offered 50 off the infinite set at first, but then after asking he put the refund on my card to keep the Premier set. Cheers again OP and others
I received mine today. Nice pans. Contacted Amazon customer service and was offered 20% refund which I accepted
I did warn people earlier. ;) To be fair, people knew this was a mistake and took a risk. All you risked was time and effort. Been there, done that with Amazon. The days of great customer service are long gone. For future reference, it is better to mention some key words when complaining. Mentioning money back rarely gets a decent result. Like people have found out, you are lucky to get a £5 voucher. I tend to go the "I'm a PRIME member who hasn't received a PRIME service". This tends to trigger a couple of months of Prime for free. At £8 a month = £16 etc. Works for nearly every late delivery as well. I'm getting lazy these days, so cannot be bothered. But with the lateness of most items, i went a long time without paying the subs.
Sounds like you had the same person as me!
Guy I spoke to was a waste of time, kept telling me he would send a replacement, all he was going to do was send the same set out again, couldn't get through to him that it wasn't the set that was listed. It's now £2 cheaper too (fierce)
Showing as £60 for me
Showing at £60
Bought a full red Circulon set from this site. After 10 months the paint started peeling, although pans were OK. Circulon replaced the whole lot with a better range (the red range was no longer available). I thought their customer service was excellent.
not quite true, bought some a few years ago and one of them kept sticking after about a years worth of use. Circlon were great though and replaced it with a new one after I contacted them. Mines used on a ceramic hob so be warned don't leave them on the high heat for too long.
cheers my pans are 7 years old time to renew
