The OXO Good Grips Hard Anodized 12" Nonstick Frying Pan is a durable, PTFE-based (Teflon) three-layer nonstick skillet designed for everyday cooking. Built with a hard-anodized aluminum body for heat conduction and scratch resistance, it features a PFOA-free German-engineered nonstick coating that minimizes oil use. The sturdy stainless steel handle is clad with soft-touch silicone for grip and heat management.

Key features:

  • Oven-safe to 400°F
  • Stovetop versatile (gas, electric, induction-compatible)
  • Dishwasher-safe
  • Not recommended for metal utensils
  • Weight: 2.4 lbs

Ranked highest by America's Test Kitchen for nonstick skillets, the OXO appeals to home cooks seeking reliable, no-fuss everyday cooking without premium pricing. The hard-anodized construction resists warping and scratching better than soft-anodized rivals. Trade-off: nonstick coating gradually wears with heavy use and frequent washing, typical of PTFE pans.
