Vollrath 58920 French Style 11" Carbon Steel Fry Pan

I used this pan extensively over the past 3 years. #1. it wraps under high heat. Surprise because the main advantage of carbon steel pan is its ability to take high heat. I used gas range so it does not bother me. But now I use induction.... #2. It requires high maintenance and constant, repeated seasoning. Once seasoned it is a non-stick pan. But see #3. #3. heat distribution is not good at all, because the sheet metal is thin. Which creates trouble during cooking and repeated seasoning #4. it is pretty light.

Need to season before use, its a good quality pan, heavy as expected, and i like the high sides. It will become non stick after seasoning

This vollrath carbon steel pan is awesome! It is super durable and easy to use. Make sure you season it properly so you don’t stick! Great pan!

This frying pan has quickly become my favorite pan. I have an induction stove and the pan is better than my 5 ply and even my cast iron pan. It seasoned easily and is the perfect in between size.

These vollrath carbon steel pans are great. With just a little work it can be made literally non stick. I checked the temperature with my laser gun and the temp is very evenly distributed. Food cooks much faster than on stainless steel pans.

This pan will last forever when maintained properly. Does NOT work well on glasstop stoves. May be a bit big for regular use. I get great wok-like results and beautiful pan seared meats. Really nice deal.

The Vollrath Carbon Steel Fry Pan 11”- French Style is well made and durable. It heats evenly and the handle is firmly attached. It heats evenly and is a great quality Fry Pan. It is great for residential and commercial use.

Good size, and weight. Took a couple of seasoning to get it ready for scramble eggs, but once it's season, it is awesome. Can't beat the price.

Getting to know you...Great pan for carbon steel neophytes. Perfectly level on a glass top burner. Light, easy to handle. It's building up a nice sheen as we learn to use it properly.

No household or restaurant should be without these pans, period. Once seasoned (an easy process) they can put a sear on anything unlike any pan you've ever used. Forget those non-stick jobbies these pans can remain nonstick at 700 degrees with almost anything you throw at it. And if the season fails for some reason, you can do it over again. Just don't let them sit in the water too long, they are mild steel and will rust.

Nice size and all around useful pan. Material and construction quality are good. Heats fast and evenly. The handle is mounted securely to the pan and has no crevices for food or carbon buildup to acquire.

solid build. not as thick as some others but its a fraction of the price. I like the shape of the handle too.

Love this skillet and clean up is a breeze. Good heavy weight skillet that is perfect for pork chops, chicken fried steaks with even cooking.

Holy cow. I wish I had seen this six months ago. This is a sturdy carbon steel pan, triple riveted. This is great.

Oh my gosh what a pan. Not too heavy, fast as heck, cooks great, easy to care for once you train everyone how to do it.
