Circulon Cookware

Purchased a new pot with strainer lid at Kohl's. After unpacking noticed the entire surface was scratched and one area was completely ruined. Sent pictures and claim was verified. Claim was approved on November 19th and I was told pan would arrive in 2 weeks. Called beginning of December, since pan had not yet arrived and was told that all warranty shipments were taking a back seat to new orders for Christmas. Unbelievable - but I was reassured replacement pan would be sent on December 15th. When I did not receive pan by December 20th I called again. Was told pan still was not shipped and it was never stated to be shipped on December 15th. Asked when I could expect pan and was told she didn't know. So much for taking care of their customers and honoring warranties. Needed pan for Christmas dinner. Will never purchase another of their products. This truly shows a lack of respect and caring of their customers.

I have a 5 year old Costco Circulon pan that over the past few years starting sticking bad. I probably overheated the pan during my weekly hash brown cookings. Regardless, I sent the required pictures to warranty claim department not really expecting much, as many claims appeared to have been denied. I got an instant canned email back stating that my claim would be processed in 2 to 4 weeks and I would be contacted if further info was needed. Imagine my surprise when 7 days later two new pans were at my front door the original 10" size and a 12" one! A bit different style than my original, but good enough. Very pleased with their service.

Spent over $30 at Target for a single "promising" 2-quart "non-stick" pot, but in half a year later of basic cooking and hand-washing and without any metal cooking utensils, the dangerous cheap "non-stick" cancer-causing Teflon plastic coating on the bottom of the Circulon pot began to peel off, and soon later en masse. I wish I had read these insightful reviews before buying the Circulon pot. I would have wisely steered clear of Circulon and have chosen a safer brand. Like the vast majority of other disappointed and frustrated former Circulon purchasers have written, the deceptive Circulon scammers will NOT honor their falsely-advertised lifetime warranty on any of their expensive but-cheaply-made products. And instead, Circulon wants us innocent victims to pay them more of our hard-earned money just to replace their bad dangerous defective short-lived garbage products.

I have used the Circulon cookware for about 3 years now and can say I’m happy with it. I hand wash them and don’t put them in the dishwashers. After I dry them I spray them down with Pam and wipe them out with a paper towel. They haven’t peeled or anything. It’s just a matter of taking really good care of them.

We bought Circulon's Deep Skillet SKU: 82687 because it's deep, and great for keeping foods off your cooktop. But, after using a while we noticed that when pouring olive oil or place a slice of butter in the "center" of the skillet (for certain foods) that it would immediately flow to the outer edges of the skillet inner surface. So, I took a metal flat edge ruler and placed on the bottom edges of the skillet, and, just as I thought the bottom center of the skillet was "concave" warped inward, not great for cooking. After some use, we noticed that food would stick to the inside black anodized cooking supposedly "non-stick surface". At first we thought it was a bad skillet, called Circulon Customer Service, and didn't get much help, but, we really like the deep skillet, so what the heck, we popped another $60 and gave it a second try, overall results were the same. Lesson here is, first impressions are the most lasting!

I purchased a couple of baking trays and then I using them for now a few months. Starting to peel off, very sad how much I paid for that is very I honourable!! Is a very poor quality brand and I do not want any discount thanks. What is offered for everyone who is complaining about this product. Just simply say never buy again and I definitely strongly not recommend!!!

Tried to make a purchase I saw on TV. They hit my credit card once for the correct amount of $169.96 and then turned around and hit it again for $275.94. I had to call my credit card company to stop these charges. Circulon did help some but the whole transaction was a hassle.

Many are sadly unaware that the use of non-stick and especially Teflon-based products produce fumes at normal cooking temperatures that will kill any bird within minutes. There are thousands of horror stories to evidence how dangerous some nonstick pans are, and especially if used in a broiler. Yesterday, I bought a two piece cookie sheet set. The wrapping says "PTOF free, no lead, no cadmium," but nothing about it also being PTFE free. Either of these chemical fumes WILL KILL YOUR PARROT, no matter size and as popular as pet parrots ate, there should be clear warnings worldwide. Birds have air sacs to breathe when in flight, and are nothing anatomically related to human Lung function. No parrot owner wants their bird to die over something as innocuous as making a meal.

I contacted Circulon with my claim on The 5.5 Qt strainer Casserole. Here is a copy of my claim and their response. My Claim: This strainer pot was purchased about 3 1/2 years ago, it has never been placed in the oven, had extreme heat applied to it (only enough to boil and brown) or placed in a dishwasher. I have never used metal utensils in it, only heat proof plastic and wood. The coating inside of the grooves is wearing off, not the raised ridges and also around the sides on the inside. The clear coating on the outside is also starting to peel off.

Wok-Frying pan - Started flaking off the bottom of the pan within 4 months. Haven't used metal for cooking and only use non-scratch sponges. Sent in photos and was responded back within a few days saying that it would not be covered due to high heat? Not sure what they mean by high heat because I only use it on my glass stove top and shouldn't a Wok be able to handle heat? DON'T BUY THEIR PRODUCTS, you'll probably get cancer if ingesting some of the metal that starts to peel off.

Circulon does not honor its warranty whatsoever. I have no idea what the point of the lifetime is other than false advertising. When I submitted a claim they said "There was no defect" even though the non-stick surface was peeling and did not work at all. They offered a 25% discount on your next purchase. Don't ever buy from them.

I purchased a red enamel steamer pot from our Target store about 6 weeks ago. I chose it because it was wide (10 1/2" diameter) and squat (7" high steamer and pot). Then I read the reviews and my heart sank. I thought I had bought a lemon. I have used my steamer almost every day, and it is perfect for what I wanted. It is the correct shape for a steamer. The red enamel shows no signs of wear, it washes beautifully, and hasn't stained. I couldn't be happier. I have no idea how the reviewers used their Circulon cookware, but I look forward to using mine for many years.

My 10" pan began to lose it's non-stick finish and was sticking. I contacted their customer service dept. and was told to submit photos. Four days later they sent me a beautiful 12" pan and lid to replace my old one. What a pleasant surprise, and so fast. My hats off to Circulon, they were wonderful.

Circulon cookware is a total scam. The non-stick coating will fail after 4 months. Not to worry, you think, they have a "lifetime no hassle warranty". What a joke! Submitting a warranty claim is an exercise in frustration. Their website is bug ridden and they have you submit pictures in order to complete you claim. No problem, you think, it's annoying but you want me to jump through hoops... here you go.

This company sold the product with pretense that it is under warranty, so-called Hassle-Free lifetime warranty. It is a scam. They have no intention to fulfill it to begin with. Waste time and scam!! Very dishonest business practice. It was under normal household usage, no abuse, never put it in oven or dishwasher but non-stick coating worn out within 4 months, foods sticks. I will never buy it again. Their website is designed to waste my time and frustration.

I purchased my cookware in January, 2012 (almost 5 years ago). Some of the frying pans and the pots are peeling inside. I have never put them in the dishwasher, never used anything other than liquid dish soap and a non scratch sponge to wash them. I bought them from Costco so will return them there since they have an excellent return policy. I would not purchase Circulon cookware again.

Reason for my review is not due to a negative experience with Circulon, but because I noticed something in the reviews I read, and wanted to mention something. I bought my Circulon pieces in 1985 from I believe The Broadway, and I still use them. I have the large 2 burner griddle, the wok, and a med sauce pan. 31 years later I am still using my Circulon pieces and I have used them at a high heat many times on gas heat as well as electric, yet they have never warped not a single bit. They also have not peeled much if any. Hard to tell the peeling part because of the texture.

I bought a CIRCULON PRIME red roast pan with chrome handles at both ends about 12 months ago in 2015. And my wife and I noticed the past few weeks that the bottom part of the roast pan is flaking a great deal. The Grey paint inside the bottom section of the roast pan is chipping and flaking at a fast rate. And the top part of the roast pan - no complaints, no chips or flakes to be seen. It breaks our heart to see that this great roast pan which my wife adored seeing it fall to pieces like that. I noticed on the box that there is a lifetime warranty but we don't have the receipt anymore. We bought this cookware at A Canadian Tire in Sherbrooke Quebec.

I recently purchased a 10 piece Circulon Set of Cookware. I am very disappointed!! They see thru lids on the cookware, fog up and you cannot see your food. The pots are very slippery as well on the bottoms and even with stirring something the pots slip on the burner. This is dangerous!!! Please respond.

It's a hard anodized pot, not sure which model line. All I know is it's Circulon my mom gave me a few years ago. It's the best pot I've ever owned and is still going strong years after she gave it to me. I don't think the circular grooves make the non-stick any better or worse than other brands, but the grooves/ridges seem to heat the liquid in the pot faster. It's the fastest-to-boil pot I've ever owned. I've overheated it (a little bit) every time I used it because I heat it on a glass-top stove one notch below Hi. It heats up really fast and boils fast and then I turn it down to medium. I try not to use metal utensils in it, but my caregivers have sometimes used metal spoons in it and it still works good. Even though I've had the heat turned up higher than I should, the non-stick surface has tolerated it and the pot never warped from it.

Relying on Costco's advertising of high quality items; my husband purchased a set of Circulon Cookware from Costco for me. At first the frying pans cooked fine and nothing stuck. Within a few months frying eggs, bacon, breaded meat stuck to the pans. Besides the sticking issues the pan were impossible to clean. You cannot get the food out of the circles. I have tried soaking, cleaning gently with a soft brush, vinegar and water heating, as Circulon's Website recommends. Nothing will removed the old particles from the grooves! I have been careful to put cloth in between each one when I store them. I did NOT use any metal utensils while using them. Never put them in the oven or used excessive heat. After all, you do need to use HEAT when cooking.

Our Circulon is about 4 years old. It's handwashed and never has been through the dishwasher, and we don't use products or utensils that will hurt the pans. Yet once pans dry after being washed they looks like they are rusting inside. Has anyone else had this problem? I don't think they are safe to use anymore. Additionally, since they were new, everything sticks to the pans - eggs, bacon, hamburgers, etc. - and it's very difficult to get the food out of the grooves of the pan. The exterior of the pans did not hold up well either. They look old and dirty even after washing. Has Circulon stood by their product for anyone? I've read a lot of complaints and not one was settled to the satisfaction of the customer. Any advice would be helpful. We need to replace all our Circulon skillets now since they did not hold up.

I LOVE MY POTS. I have had my pots for 7 years!!! They are the only pots I use. I have burnt them down to the core and they still have been nonstick. After 7 years they are finally giving out on me and I can't seem to find the same ones.

Bought what we thought was quality cookware from our local Younkers department store "owned by Macy's". The cookware is terrible. Tried to get Circulon to warranty the defective items, they said it was my fault and their "no hassle warranty" did not apply to me. It is only my wife and I in our home, we are grandparents and don't even use the pans all that often. They are discolored and will not come clean. I don't know how we could have damaged two of the 12 pieces of the set. We had a T-Fal set we used while we raised three kids and never had any issues with that set. In fact we moved the T-Fal set to our motorhome and still use it when we travel. The Circulon set lasted three years. Do not buy. It's junk and they will not honor their "No hassle warranty".

I have 2 Circulon saucepans for about 2 years that I don't use very often. When I use the 1 quart it is usually to cook hard boiled eggs or oatmeal and the 2 quart to cook rice or frozen peas or corn. Today I threw both in the garbage because the coating has almost completely worn off and they are probably unsafe. I am still using the stainless steel pots and pans that my mother purchased for me when I was married 43 years ago and will go out and purchase 2 of that brand to replace the 2-year-old Circulon.

Saw so many negative reviews. Had to add my love of these non-stick dishwasher safe cookware. Regularly $199 on sale. Sometimes for $159. Have had mine for over 2 1/2 years and always put in dishwasher. Always look like new. Even the bottoms look like new. I do adhere to medium heat but also have put in oven. Love the silicon coated handles that don't transfer heat. Use silicon utensils. Have bought 2 more sets for my children and they're equally pleased. Looking for griddle and grill pan.

Several months ago I purchased a Circulon Cookware set online through Macy's. I have never purchased a Circulon product and I have always associated Circulon with quality. Macy's was fine. I received the cookware set and the larger fry pan was "bent" in an oval shape. The lids for the sauce pans did not fit properly. I didn't believe this was a "Macy's issue" but a Circulon issue so I called Circulon's customer service toll free number. If you like to be treated rudely, in a condescending way that's the number to call to aggravate you. A lady answered and "blew me off" and rudely said "return it to Macy's". I tried explaining to her we have no Macy's here, I am a disabled senior and got nowhere.

I purchased the Circulon Premier Professional pots and pans in March 2015. In October I realized the large pot's top no longer fit. I had not misused the pot. I submitted pictures as requested under the warranty, but have heard nothing back from the company.

My parents gave me a set of Circulon cookware in 2015. My last set was Farberware that I have had and used constantly through a growing family since 1979. This new set is extremely disappointing. The nonstick ridged surface started flaking off the first week even though I adhered to the recommendations of not cooking at a high heat and nonstick utensils. They are hard to clean completely and are unbalanced. And since I am cooking for only one person now, me, I can't imagine they will last much longer. And everything sticks to them also. I am so disappointed.

I purchased a set on Circulon pans. The large frying pan has started sticking. I contacted the home office and sent them pictures. They agreed it was bad but suddenly couldn't help me. They gave me a runaround to contact another office, that office couldn't help. Bottom line I do not recommend this company.
