Lovely looking pots & frying pan set. Nice weight to them, heat up fast and keep their heat well after turning off the gas, easy to clean, well worth the money,just be careful with the saucepan lid handle as they get ho
Love these pans, easy to clean, heat distribution is great even use less gas once at boilng piont I turn down to the minimum to finish cooking also had NO problem with food sticking.
What more could you want out of a pa
Nothing worse than a terrible quality cooking pan or pot
These are incredible, so durable
Most importantly, they clean easy and the handles are strong
The pan sets are really easy to use. The build quality is superb. The handles are really strong and connection to the pots are really robust. It has some intelligent technique to that connection, the heat does not follow through the handle. The Pan set looks luxurious and need little oil to use, so it’s healthy too.
I am just sceptical about the price a bit but I could change my opinion depending on how long it last like new.
This set of stainless steel pans is just great. It contains 3 pans of different sizes (16cm, 18cm, and 20cm) with lids. I personally use these pans like cooking pots because of their shape and size, they are really excellent. I cooked stews, soups, sauces, and other plates with these and the process of cooking was so easy and enjoyable with these pans.
Also really like the design of these pans. The handles are very comfortable to hold. Each pan lid has a small hole that allows the steam to go out. Hence, cooking with these pots prevents boiling contents to the point of spilling them through the side of lids and also makes sure that the lid doesn’t jump off the pan while cooking.
The non-stick surface of these pans is probably my favourite feature. It is great when cooking as it helps not to burn the food and is also great when cleaning. It is so easy to wash these pans after cooking, I just need some warm water and a sponge and everything comes right off the surface without too much scrubbing or too much effort. However, if I really don’t want to wash them by hand, I can always stick them into the dishwasher as they are dishwasher-safe.
Another great feature is that these pans can be used in the oven up to 260 degrees heat. Considering that most dishes are cooked between 180 and 220 degrees, these pans can always serve as cooking pots for the oven.
I really think this set of pans is excellent and I hope to continue using it for many years to come.
These are the best pans I have ever used. My wife is the cook and she adores them. They get hot quick enough and are very controllable and responsive. The lid handles do get warm, but a bit of kitchen roll will save fingers. The pan handles do not get hot though. They are super easy to clean, everything just slides off! Expensive? See it as an investment.
These are quite weighty pans, especially the largest one. They cook well and nothing sticks. I’m really pleased with them.
* How They Compare to the Top of the Range:
I’m surprised by the quality of this duo of frying pans. We were using a set of Le Creuset pans – which I bought from Amazon in a larger set. These offer the same quality at less than half the price of the le Creuset. Plus they’re non-stick. Dont get me wrong, I LOVE our Le Creusets, they weren’t cheap, but they stand the test of time and the build is exceptional.
The Steel is thick and the non-stick is robust enough to endure the usual dry and arid conditions of my oven. The pans are not as heavy as our Le Creuset, but they certainly are built to last, the quality and finish is refined, well researched and exemplary. The Ninja insignia is embossed deeply on the underside and the handle. The steel, ultra refined, just the same finish as our Le Creuset steel pan set which look great even when left on display.
* How They Performed:
The powerful non-stick coating is unlike my more budget Teflon coated pans. It’s thick, heat treated apparently to a greater degree, and hardy enough to take my old metal whisk which is a bit rough around the edges whilst I make a rue for my lasagne. This isnt the case for my budget Teflon pans which scratch easily and require only wooden or silicon utensils.
* Induction Cooking:
The pans work beautifully on our Miele induction hob. The heat transfer evenly as the pans have a good, thick base. Thin-based pans perform poorly on our induction. There’s just not enough protection from the rapid heat transfer, so that’s why I initially took the plunge and bought my first set of heavy weight steel pans. They’re undoubtedly pricey, but they perform so much better and stand the test of time. I’m very happy to see that the more competitively priced Ninjas are going to be a gamechanger by producing solid, heavier pans, but at a reasonable price.
* Resilience:
I am able to continue using my metal utensils, which means I can treat this set with wanton disregard, if you will, compared to the more delicate nature that our Le Creuset are accustomed to. The Ninja is surprisingly resilient to my metal whisks and spoons so far. If this changes over time, as always, I will update this review.
* Do You REALLY Need Non-Stick:
There are times when all you need is a very good non-stick pan. They’re so much more forgiving than making a thick and chunky tomato soup on cast iron, or even steel, without spluttering or sticking, creating a big mess encircling a 2 metre radius of my cooking area. It aids in ensuring I don’t get burnt bottoms when heating ingredients containing milk or heavier ingredients when making broths which sink to the bottom.
For that purpose, this heavier-than-usual set of steel non-sticks, is not only cheap for the quality, but also dynamic enough to use with metal utensils, bunged into the dishwasher and thrown into a domestic oven at full blast, without so much as a scratch (so far!). The ten year guarantee says something about what Ninja expect from their pans.
5 stars
Ninja pans always are best. This is my second set. They have have a really good weight to them, a nice design and can be used on any type of hob. The pans are 16cm, 18cm and 20cm and made from stainless Steel. They are solid and robust, sleek and stylish. The pans heat up very quick and what I like is that the handle is heat resistant and nothing stick on them. Glass lid is a great feature as I check in my food regularly during cooking so it helps just to look in the pot. High Recommend.
These set of pans from Ninja are pure quality, I own loads of pots and pans from top brands and I can honestly say these are the best.
Absolute pleasure to cook in them, saut, boil or fry – very versatile due to non stick coating. I pasteurised milk in the big pot for 30 minutes for making home made yogurt and it took no scrubbing just wiping with sponge to remove the burnt milk at the bottom of the pot. Usually when I use a different pot it requires a lot of manual scrubbing in order to clean it.
It’s made of stainless steel that will probably last a life time if you take a good care of it. Non stick coating is that good that you can use metal utensils as it’s scratch resistant.
The 3 piece set from Ninja looks just perfect and performance even better than perfect.
What can I say – I’m totally in love with it.

This Ninja foodi Zerostick trio of pans are not only beautifully designed, but they’re also incredibly good! The 3-piece pan set consists of 1 x 16cm saucepan with lid, 1 x 18cm saucepan with lid, 1 x 20cm saucepan with lid. With zero chip technology they don’t flake or peel thanks to being precision engineered at a staggering 17,000C where plasma ceramic particles are fused to the surface of the pans which creates a robust textured surface that interlocks with the non-stick coating to form a superior bond. The pans are fine on our induction hob and equally as effective on the gas hob as the conductivity of these pans is genuinely exceptional. They are oven safe up to 260C which makes them ideal for hob to oven to grill cooking. The panhandles feel great in the hand and provide the pans with a feeling of control and balance which is very reassuring. They are also dishwasher safe and as you’d expect, they clean very well.
Now you might think they’re expensive, but I assure you, these pans are exceptional and will probably outlast me! With the Ninja 10-year replacement guarantee, which includes the non-stick coating* they’re actually pretty good value.
In summary, whether you’re a dab hand in the kitchen or not that great a cook, these pans seriously are a pleasure to cook with. I’m more than happy to recommend them as they’re a great addition to our kitchen that we’ll get many years of enjoyment using.
I’ve used these ninja pans for a couple of months now and I’m really impressed with them.
I’ve never had any of the ninja products before but all the pans look and feel very sturdy and well made. The handles are comfortable to hold and can be held with two hands if you’re doing something like draining a full pan of pasta and need to tip the pan up.
The non stick coating isn’t smooth like on a lot of pans and I think that’s why it’s ok to use metal utensils with it – it’s slightly rough and much tougher than traditional non stick coatings. We have lots of silicone and nylon utensils already but being able to use a metal whisk in a non stick pan is amazing for me for making bechamel and other smooth sauces as I find that the silicone whisks just don’t cut it. The photos show our pans after two months of using metal utensils and you can see that the non stick coating hasn’t been damaged at all.
The included instructions do mention that the pans take a little longer to heat on induction hobs and I’d say that is the case, though to be honest I’ve found that with most pans of decent quality on the induction hob.
The best thing about this pan set is the versatility – they can be used on a variety of different hobs and also in the oven and they can be cleaned in the dishwasher. The instructions do say that handwashing is better if possible but I have tried them in the dishwasher just a couple of times for testing purposes and didn’t see any degradation to the non stick surface which is great. I have had so many non stick pans wrecked when my boyfriend accidentally puts them in the dishwasher so it’s great to know that the same fate doesn’t await these pans as they can withstand it!
I’ve used the biggest pan in the oven to make a stew and it was fantastic. I thought the lid would get damaged but it cleaned right up after use in the oven no problem at all. It’s amazing to find a set of non stick pans that can be used on an induction hob and also in the oven as you can brown off or start food on the hob then cook/finish it in the oven which I used to love doing before getting my induction hob.
Fantastic pan set and yes they’re pricey but I wouldn’t hesitate to get more in this range as for me the added features of being dishwasher safe, oven safe and especially the ability to use metal utensils with them, really make them stand out compared to other good quality non stick pans.
Never worry about scratching, heat distribution is super, and cleaning is a breeze!
Bought a set for my granddaughter who loves to cook and she just loves them too!
It is really difficult to find anything hard or even constructive to say about these. They’re rock solid in every aspect. Beautifully made. Work amazingly. Take longer to heat up than cheaper pans but that’s a good thing. You probably expect a trusted name for this price but the quality is unbelievable and well worth it. Over the moon with them. Can’t fault.
These pans are outstanding. The hear conduction is excellent. They heat up up quickly and evenly without the heat transferring to the handles. The non stick properties are really good. Lids are tight and the handles are strong and well attached. A good pan set is a must have for anyone who spends a lot of time in the kitchen and these are among some of the best I’ve ever used. Exceeded all my expectations.
Having a broken elbow caused issues with my le crust due to the weight. Even washing up was tough if anything was stuck now it’s just amazing as these are a great weight and cleaning is so so so easy
Thank you to the other reviewers as you helped me make this choice xxx
This is a full set for regular cooking. The quality is brilliant and I can see and feel the smooth of the material. They are not heavy and easy to handle. And the source pans come with lids too. Love to use them. Highly recommend.
Top quality pan set from Ninja. Sturdy, stylish and easy to use and clean. What makes these pans stand out from a lot of others is the heat distribution and non – stick coating. Probably the best that I have come across.
A review from the wife… These are a great set of pans. There are three saucepans, a milk pan and a frying pan in the set. They have a good weight to them which gives them a solid feel of quality. I have a gas hob and I was concerned that the handles would be too hot to touch after a while. However this has not been an issue at all and the handles have remained cool enough to handle. The non stick is great on them and I have been able to cook with less oil than I did with my previous pans. The good non stick also means that there is not much food residue stuck on and it makes them incredibly easy to clean. Both hand washing and putting them in the dishwasher have worked well. They are expensive however the quality is incredibly high.
I had to throw out most of my pans when we got a new kitchen with an induction hob earlier this year so was so pleased to try this set out.
I’ve never had any of the ninja products before but all the pans look and feel very sturdy and well made. The handles are comfortable to hold and can be held with two hands if you’re doing something like draining a full pan of pasta and need to tip the pan up.

This Ninja 5 piece Stainless Steel Pan Set replaces an inexpensive stainless set that I’ve been using for everyday cooking for the past 12 years. The old set was not non-stick (apart from the frying pan), but served me well. The Ninja set is several steps higher in quality with each pan having a thick base that takes longer to preheat, but once heated, provides even heat distribution for consistent results. The Ninja set is noticeably heavier and sturdier. I mainly cook for just two and this set is just right for that.
The outstanding feature of this Ninja set is the ZEROSTICK non-stick coating that has performed really well, particularly on the frying pan and milk pan, where non-stick coatings are a must. The ZEROSTICK coating has lots of information to back-up its safety and efficacy, but the main thing is it does what it says and clean-up is easy.
I cook on a gas hob and all the Ninja pots perform well. The handles do not get too hot when the pots have a long time on the gas, but the handles feel a little too long for me. I don’t use the pots in the oven, but the long handles would not make this easy, unless I was puting something under the grill.
Overall, I’m very pleased with the quality, feel and performance of the pots, but I feel the price is a little high and that drops my overall rating to 4 stars.
Although this seems like quite a high price for a pan set it’s actually incredibly reasonable and good value considering the number and quality of the pans. You get:
3 pans (large, medium, small) – all with glass lids
A deep frying pan – more suited to stir fries and sauces than a breakfast. No lid
A milk/sauce pan – no lid but two pouring moulds.
Really well build and love the industrial design of the (solid metal) handles.
All units can handle being put in the oven up to 240c.
If you have installed a new kitchen or just want to upgrade a load of mismatching or ageing pans, look no further – these are fantastic.
This set of pans includes a frying pan, three saucepans (with lids), and a milk pan. The milk pan is like a slightly smaller saucepan, but with two lips to make it easier to pour from.
The pans are sturdy, and have a good weight to them. They have a completely stainless steel exterior, which looks good and will avoid any paint chipping. I personally prefer plastic handles as sometimes metal handles can get hot if left on the hob for too long, but I’ve not found that to be the case with these.
They are apparently ‘metal utensil and dishwasher safe’, but the instructions advise washing by hand just to be safe, which seems like a sensible approach. It’s probably safest to avoid using metal utensils if possible too.
The pans work absolutely fine on an induction hob, and get up to temperature as quickly as any other pan I’ve used. The non-stick coating makes cooking absolutely delightful, and really cuts down on the amount of oil you need to fry things.
This pan set has been absolutely fantastic so far. It’s the only set I’ve ever had where the bottom doesn’t discolour from the gas flame – which is good because I store them on a wall with hooks through the handles so the bottoms are on display. And that’s the other thing with these, they look incredible. It’s a lot of money but then pans are genuinely expensive. I’ve had many cheap versions over the years and to be honest for the amount of flaws and hassle it would have been easier just to start with a good quality set like these ninjas. They have been completely non stick with a huge variety of foods and use. Ever mashed potato (terrible to remove from my other pans) just wipes right off.
I have had nothing by ninja before and I have to say, this has made me a fan of the brand. I love the colour of the pans, love that the lids fit perfectly and the different sizes for my different cooking needs. What I really love about this set is that it requires hardly any oil, I am able to use my current stainless steel utensils without the worry of the non stick getting scratched. They are 100% non stick and the texture of the inside makes it so easy to clean. They heat up very quickly so you don’t need to stand around waiting for them to be hot enough to use. They may be a little bit pricey but if you looking for a long-lasting non-stick pan set, this might be a perfect set for you and is definitely worth the price.
These perform as good as they look are well built ergonomically designed with rubber around the touchpoints they heat up fast and the heat is spread out evenly each one with their own lid have found nothing to stick to them been going strong for several months and can see them lasting many years well worth the premium price for the outstanding quality of this set.
Best pans I’ve every used. The Pans feel really good quality whilst not being too heavy. I can fry an egg without oil and it slides out the pan, superbly non stick. The lids and handles are of a well made construction, lid handles don’t get to hot to touch when used on the hob. Nice and sturdy set, easy to clean. Absolutely love it.
This is a gorgeous set of pans. I ordered these in the red version, they look fantastic and feel very high quality. The coating feels much thicker than your average non stick pans. These are nice enough to keep out on display.
These arrived in a very colourful branded box with pictures of the set along with details and specifications. The box opens at the top and everything is contained in an internal box/tray packed into bespoke cardboard layers and protected with card and paper. You get a couple of leaflets covering usage, care and recommended heat settings, with everything being well packed and protected.
First Impressions: I gave all the pans and lid’s a really good look over and the finishing looks immaculate. The pans have the Ninja brand embossed on the silicone handles, silicone sleeve on the glass lids along with being on the bottom of each pan. I like the design especially the handles being nice and slim and the lid handles having a good gap between the glass and handle making it hard to accidently burn yourself on the glass while removing, I also like the brushed metal finish to the handles rather than a shiny chrome finish. The deep red of the pan matches well to the colour of the silicone which in my opinion gives them a nice modern look.
Once I had unpacked everything I gave all the pans and lid’s a wash to remove any remaining manufacturing taint. We have been using these daily since they arrived and are impressed with the quality, each pan is heavier than I would have expected by just looking at it and they sit nice and solidly on the cooker hob. The lids are a standard glass lid design but with the better clearance between the handle and the glass which makes them much easier to remove and replace. The silicone on the handles work extremely well stopping them from getting hot, and this is even the case when I have placed pans into our main oven making it a really useful feature of this set.
Overall I am impressed with this pan set, the design is well thought out with both style and practicality, the silicone handles work exceptionally well making it easy to transfer a pan to the oven and remove it again with ease. Cleaning them is straight forward and they are also dishwasher safe. I can’t really find fault with this set so have given top marks.
I use to hate cooking with my super old and rusty pans.
But these new pans have changed everything.
these pans have made cooking a pleasure again.
They are sturdy, decent weight, nice handles, and do heat through evenly and quickly.
I’m so pleased with this set!
This set is the right size for anyone who already has their skillets. There is a small, medium and large sauce pan in the set, along with individual lids. The surface is non-stick and cleanup is a breeze. I am loving this set so far. Size is right for me!
Having other Ninja products around the house I knew these weren’t going to be a let down.
As expected the pans arrived well packed and protected, straight away you can feel the quality, handles feel thicker and are very comfortable to hold, they are long enough to keep your hands away from the heat as well as being heat-resistant and very sturdy, same thing with the lid very well made and sturdy fits perfectly in the correct pan.
The pans are non-stick so they are very easy to clean, I personally avoid using anything sharp on it to avoid scratching it, although it’s scratch resistant I personally avoid any risk of it completely.
Great product all around.
Amazing quality, firm and sturdy pans, made from solid materials that make sure you have great heat distribution all over the pan.
PROS:
1) EXCELLENT HEAT DISTRIBUTION
2) GOOD SEAL FROM SEE THROUGH LIDS
3) SOLID CONSTRUCTION
4) EXCELLENT NON-STICK COATING
CONS:
1) POTENTIAL HEALTH CONCERNS WITH LEACHABILITY OF ALUMINIUM INTO FOOD
2) SOMEWHAT PRICEY FOR ALUMINIUM PANS FROM A NON-COOKWARE BRAND
These are excellent pans with excellent heat distribution and a good weight to them. They heat up evenly and quickly. The non-stick surface is excellent and scratch resistant, though I wouldn’t say scratch proof. The lids make a nice seal and as they are clear you can see the food and what’s going on, condensation permitting, of course. My concerns are two fold. Whilst Ninja have made a name for themselves with some small kitchen appliances, they don’t to my knowledge, have a name in cookware. Thus, the entry price, whilst commensurate with other brands, seems a little steep for a non-cookware brand. My second concern is that there is a massive bundle of scientific evidence which points to serious concerns over aluminium cookware. As a scientifically trained person, I tend to agree with the science, but let me say, I do have some aluminium pans which I do use. There is also a concern with Teflon coatings too. That’s one of the reasons that the advertising says that it’s flakeproof and chip resistant (if only some of the population were flake proof and chip resistantha ha!) Ninja obviously know about the health concerns over aluminium cookware and Teflon coatings. The concerns centre around the fact that aluminium react very readily with a lot of compounds which are present when cooking. There is a strong body of evidence that suggests aluminium leaching and its toxicity means serious liver problems to name but one health problem.
Cast iron pans are the safest and the best for heat conduction and even spread. Though, the Ninja pans do seem to work brilliantly with a good even heat throughout. Nowadays, you don’t need to pay over the odds for cast iron, there are plenty of sets on amazon for similar or less money. It’s your choice, as I said I have some aluminium pans (including these) and another review set, but my most used pots and pans are cast iron. If you want to check it out use Google Scholar. This is where you will find scientific research. Normal google will find articles by non-scientists. However, if you are in a market for Aluminium pans these are certainly amongst the best you can buy.
Ninja foodi ZEROSTICK 5-piece pan set, [C35000UK] hard anodised aluminium, non-stick, induction compatible, dishwasher safe.
Finally a pan set that actually does what ot says on the box. NONSTICK
It really is. So far…
The fact that this really is a top notch set, and the business believes in there product so much, they give a 10-year replacement guarantee, including the non-stick coating. Upon registration with Ninja. When used as directed in the use and care guide.
So as long as you do what your supose too, your fully covered for 10years winwin…
My original pan set are stainless steel and it does take some getting use to how these ninja ones work and take to warm and cook things.
I’m my opinion they do take longer to warm ul but I think that’s because of the quality of them.
The heat is well distributed throughout the whole set.
I only use silacone utensils on them because I don’t wsnt to scratch the coating. Oh and my great grand maters wooden spoon for making rice pudding like she did. That is a must.
These are also Oven safe up to 260C,
So can cook with them on the hob and finish cooking in the oven if needed.
I’ve actually done my first omelet / frittata stared off on the hob and puffed up in the oven. The texture is so much better.
These pans have actually opened up a whole ne cooking and eating experience for my family and myself.
These are dishwasher proof but I always wash my pans by hand.
I couldn’t recommend these enough. They are now my go too pans, I have them stacked next to my range Cooke because they are also stylish. If you put the lids on upside down your able to stack the pans and I have the saucepan hanging on the wall next to them.
5-piece pan set contains:-
* 1 x 16cm milk pan,
* 1 x 16cm saucepan with lid,
* 1 x 18cm saucepan with lid,
* 1 x 20cm saucepan with lid,
* 1 x 24cm frying pa
The non stick coating works incredibly well – have cooked lots of different things in them including rice, lentils, vegetables, chilli and curry and nothing has stuck.
The non stick coating also makes them very easy to clean – no soaking for hours trying to get the stubborn bits off.
Handles are quite long and i think this contributes to them remaining cool making picking them up easy.
Lids are a good fit but do get very hot.
Design is great they look sleek and would fit in any kitchen.
Would recommend
I am extremely pleased with this pan set!
I love them! It is super easy to cook in and are super easy to clean.
Indeed are non stick and super qualitative!
Great value and may be great as a gift for someone who loves to cook!
Highly recommend it!
Received these pans to review.
Glad I did, has my older set was, well, old…
I’m always worried about possible health issues with these non stick pans, so was happy to know that they do not use teflon (PFOA) TO make them, and also happy to see amazing reviews about them in other places.
They are safe to use in the oven, with temperatures up to 500!!
They are safe to wash in the dishwasher, they recommend to wash them by hand, and it is really easy to also.
I find it so much easier to cook eggs and steaks, without oil splashing all around, like it happened with other pans I have.
There is a pdf manual online, on ninja website, something I recommend to read, just to keep them as good as new, for much much longer.
Overall, we are over the moon with our setnd definitely will recommend them to family and friends!
I have used products from Ninja Foodi in the past and have always liked their products which are quite innovative at times and long lasting. Although they are fairly new in the market compared to other brands which have been here for decades, they have established a strong standing based on the quality of their products. When I saw this set on Vine, I had to try it out.
The cooking set is as expected of the best quality: solid material, super heat distribution, the lids fit perfectly on the pots and close great. All 3 sauce pans, 1 frying pan and 1 milk pan work optimally on the induction cooker, which was an issue with so with many other pots that were supposed to be used for induction cookers. Great for hobby and even advanced chefs.
I couldn’t believe it, but thanks to the unique non stick surface that they have used, you really need almost no oil and nothing sticks to the pan and the pots. Also cleaning is easy and the products can be put in the dishwasher. In contrast to so many glass lids, which can often not be properly cleaned, this is possible without any problems with these models. I have used the pots for everything: curries, sauces, pasta, soups, etc and they have all come out looking great with little to no oil. I haven’t seen anything sticking to the surface. Even when sometimes I forget to reduce the temperature of the induction hob and things have burnt a little bit inside the pan, they come out very easily with minimal effort. The sizes of the pots and the pan are perfect for a small family! I also find the design very appealing. The set looks very nice.
I really like that this comes with a 10 year guarantee which includes the non-stick coating. Till now, all of the non stick pans we have used, haven’t lasted for more than a couple of years even after using only wooden or silicon utensils and washing them by hand. This guarantee gives us a peace of mind although we will still mostly use non stick safe appliances.
If you are looking for a long lasting non-stick pan set, this might be a perfect set for you. Overall, I am really happy with the excellent built quality and materials used in this. Highly recommended – 5 Stars
I love ninja products, when I received these pans I was not disappointed at all. The quality is absolutely amazing, the handles and lids are very sturdy but not too heavy. The pan handles are easy to grip and do not get hot like other pans I’ve used. The non stick coating is not like anything I’ve seen before and you certainly won’t get any scratches if you use the right utensils. I tested the frying pan out using a pancake batter without any butter or oil and it lifted off so easy and the colour was amazing and cooked to perfection.
I’ve been using these pans over a gas hob or directly into the oven or grill when I wanted an extra crunch.
The pans also wash so easy most of the time the food comes off by just running under hot water. I’ve also tried in the dishwasher with no issues.
Overall these pans are superior quality, well designed and are truly non stick as stated.
I highly recommend.
I already have a couple of anodised aluminium pans from a different brand that I love so kind if knew what to expect when I ordered these but I was not expecting such incredible quality and such a weight difference between these and my other ones. I now realise why these ones have a higher price tag its because they’re superior.
I’ve found that they heat food quicker, such as bringing water to the boil much faster this saves energy and money. The lid handle does get hot after a period of time so you’ll need a silicone pot grip or towel when handling the lid. The pan handles are cool during use though, unless you put the pans in the oven (obviously).
Washing them is a dream too, no scrubbing needed. I leave mine in warm soapy water whilst I eat then when I come to wash them I hardly need to do much even after a sticky sweet and sour sauce has been used. I don’t have a dishwasher so can’t comment on this.
These pans are an investment and will last many years. A cheaper pan set may need replacing every few years or so so it’s cost effective to invest in a better quality set to begin with.
My cooker has a regular ceramic hob and all pans worked with no issues.
Highly recommended.
These pans are so good that I don’t think I will use any other ever again, very stylish looking pans and work so well. Non stick and simple to clean. Absolute must have for any want to be chef or someone who cares about cooking.
These are really excellent pans.
They came very well packaged, wrapped in tissue paper to ensure no scratches etc.
The pans are, well, different.
The non stick is almost glittery, but it works amazingly well, with only the slightest spray of oil needed, indeed I have cooked with no oil, but prefer the flavour with some oil.
So these allow for healthier cooking.
They have a nice weight and balance, the handles are a good size and do not get hot during cooking.
The lids, maybe do not quite have the robust and sturdy feel of Le Creuset, but they fit well and they do the job very well.
They clean very easily, either with a quick rinse, or in the dishwasher.
All in all, I really love this excellent, well made, high quality pan set.
This Ninja set includes 05 pieces into it, and all of these are working optimally for the price, and expectations as well. These 05 pieces include stuff like a large milk pan, a large saucepan, a frying pan, with a medium saucepan as well.
Except for its milk pan, every other pan comes with a glass lid that is heat-tempered and resists the heat on high flames pretty much. All of these boys are non-stick which is what I was looking for.
Moreover, these non-stick guys we can use with little to no oil at all. Although I haven’t used it for the oven, I do believe that it will perform there as well. In the end, all of these are easy to wash, and the dishwasher is not an enemy of them at all. The build quality is also really impressive, and the design is also quite lucrative here.
At time of writing review the price is 199.99…
I got these free through the Amazon vine program…and wondered if these were worth the price stated….
ALL I CAN SAY I YES THEY ARE…..
4 saucepans 3 with lids and one what you would call a milk saucepan…and one fry pan….
Black with stainless steel handles…..quite heavy and really solid….
Can’t wait to start using them……made by ninja foodi …..all dish washer safe….
Lids stainless steel rims with tempered glass…..
4 different size pans….handles very well made no screws as kinda bolted on…..
Nice deep saucepans
Non stick….although I’ve not used them yet as waiting for a new kitchen…..
Would I have bought these at that price…..easy answer yes….after seeing the set I would they are well worth the money……
These pans are of fantastic quality and very very well made. I got the set of 3 at the side of my old pan set which cost around the same price, the Ninja came out on top.
SO easy to clean, no scrubbing, don’t even have to put them in the dishwasher for 2 seconds to wipe and spotless. Loved how burnt gravy just wiped away. They are nonstick but don’t have that awful Teflon nonstick.
The only thing I preferred on my old set is that the lip of the lid was deeper and had draining holes and a pouring lip, I sort of miss that.
They are heavy bottomed so take a while to heat up but you turn them off a few minutes before the end and the food carries on cooking.
I have 2 frying pans made out of same metal/finish as these pans and had them for 2 years and they still look good.
A really good quality ninja pots set which is really good and it is non stick too. All the pots have a good weight to it and a good non stick coating and is of quality. They are heavy but it better that the pot falling of the hob and it heat really quick and evenly too and love cooking with these pot and thet are easy to clean.
This Ninja pan set is an amazing upgrade and you can tell they’re really well made. They stack neatly inside each other so that it keeps your cupboards tidy and takes up less space.
What’s in the box:
-16cm milk pan
-16cm saucepan & lid
-18cm saucepan & lid
-20cm saucepan & lid
-24cm frying pan
These pans are non-stick and dishwasher safe which are both things I want from a pan set as I cook on the hob at least once a week to bulk cook meals. I have an induction hob so these are perfect as they are designed for all types of hobs and the box says you don’t need to use oil due to the non-stick, but I think I’ll still use a little bit regardless. One thing to note is these pans have some weight to them. I’m of petite stature and also have Madelung Deformity in my wrists so I always struggle to pour water out of big pans in general, but these ones are heavier than my last set so I tend to ask my boyfriend to help!
I’m not one for big branding on everything, but the way they’ve done it still makes these pans look professional and visually pleasing. The lid and pan handles are engraved with ‘Ninja’ on them which looks sleek and overall helps with the appearance of this set.
The only thing I would say is that my last set of pans had spouts on either side (like the milk pan) and the lid had 2 different size holes on both sides so you could pour the water out after your pasta etc was cooked. Not a huge deal, but a design I do like as it makes it a lot easier and is convenient. With this set, you have to lift the lid a little and let the water pour out.
I should mention there is A LOT of packaging inside, but you can certainly understand why. The good thing is it can all be recycled as it is cardboard and tissue paper. The pans are packed in boxes within boxes, and I’m not sure why so many are needed if the actual items themselves are packaged so thoroughly – it reminded me of those Russian dolls!
They are quite expensive, but for the price, you’re going to easily get 10 years+ out of them (with a 10 year guarantee too!) due to the high quality – I definitely recommend investing in these heavy-duty pans if you do a lot of cooking on the hob!
This selection of pans is the perfect starter pack for any kitchen as not only can they reused on a gas, electric or induction hob but they can even go in the oven. Only the microwave is forbidden due to the metal construction.
They heat up quickly and evenly and because the non stick finish is so good they clean easily too.
What’s not to love. True, they’re not the cheapest but if you can afford it then cheap pots and pans are a false economy anyway, always buy the best you can afford.
Ok, these are heavy duty, easy to use and clean! As you can see in the pictures, I am sauteing some game and this is the kind of meat that usually produces quite a bit of protein juice, which if your pans are not stick-proof burns and is impossible to wash off without scrubbing! As you can see from the pictures – it just does not stick or burn! Washing these pans is a breeze – just stick them in your dishwasher or rinse! Yes, rinse! Literally some of the best pans I have used and I have used a lot! Bottom line – will be buying the actual frying pans, that is for certain!
A really nice set of five non-stick pans.
16cm Milk Pan.
16cm Saucepan with glass lid.
18cm Saucepan with glass lid.
20cm Saucepan with glass lid.
24cm Frying Pan.
The pans have a good weight and the bottoms seem
to conduct heat very evenly. The non-stick coatings
seem very robust and are easy to clean. The stainless
steel handles stay cool on the hob and are comfortable
when lifting. They are “oven safe up to 260C” (but don’t
forget to use your heatproof mitts or cloths when handling!!)
Mrs Wolf and I have been very happy with the pans so far.
There are certainly cheaper sets to be had but the quality
of the Ninja pans probably justifies the price. Time will tell.
These pans are great. Nothing sticks to them – sure food dries on them but it simply wipes off. No scrubbing required. You can cook meat – sear it without adding any oil at all. I seared steaks this way before making Beef Wellington and they were spot on. I’ve boiled pasta and potatoes. I’ve made tomato soup from scratch, frying onion and potato in a tiny amount of fat before adding the stock and tomatoes. Nothing stuck to the pan, they’re fabulous. They are dishwasher proof and can be hand washed which is all I’ve done because they are so easy to clean. Metal utensils can be used in them that’s how confident the manufacturer is in their heated to 17000 degrees C* non stick plasma ceramic coating which is fused to the pan surface called zero stick. They can go from your stove to the oven up to 260 degrees C (although I can’t think of a recipe that requires such a temperature). The manufacturer also guaratees the pans including the coating for 10 years (upon registration with Ninja). They can be used on all hobs including Induction.
There are 5 pans: frying pan 24cm, 16cm milk pan, 16cm, 18cm & 20cm sauce pan with lids. So that’s three lids, of course the 16cm lid could be used on the milk pan if you need to.
The handles are cast stainless steel. The lids are stainless steel rimmed tempered glass. The pan itself is forged aluminum with a hard anodised exterior (yes, I did just copy this info off the box). * it’s also on the box about the 17000 degrees C plasma ceramic particles being fused to the aluminum pan but a quick internet search tells me aluminum melts at 600-660 degrees C…so maybe the plasma ceramic particles cool a little before being fused??? All I know is I’m con-fused about this statement!
They are heavy. I have a permaneant wrist injury and boy did I struggle to lift the largest pan with pasta and boiling water. It took both hands and thank goodness it’s only a small distance to the sink to drain them. The pans seem heavy all by them selves. I tried weighing them on my kitchen scale but it just said “out” of range (I presume). The weight won’t stop these from becoming my new favourite pans ever, I just need to be conscious of it and perhaps it’s worth considering before purchase.
The handles and lids are perfectly designed and sized to hold/grip. The handles haven’t got hot. The lid handles have been warm but not too hot to hold. Obviously they would be very hot when used in the oven up to 260 degrees C.
They work out to be 40 each at 199.00 for the five. I certainly don’t think I’ll need to replace them for a very very long time.
BEWARE the packaging: I’ve included a picture of the packaging which occupied my entire kitchen floor before I organised it for the photo. EVERYTHING can be RECYCLED, which is great. What I’d really like to know is why it has to be packed in 4 boxes? If Amazon reads this review to the end : please note you could just put the address lable on the plain cardboard box that the manufacturer provides. Adding the Amazon box makes the pans’ protection 4 cardboard boxes deep. It reminded me of pass the parcel or one of those Russian dolls!
Where to start with this ? Firstly the price, Ninja items are expensive, no doubt, but they also are of the best quality you can get and last forever. These pans are no exception and a welcome addition to my growing Ninja collection. Firstly the packaging. It took something like 15 minutes to unpack. The large outer box contains a well fitting inner box. Inside that box is the actual Ninja box. Very economically packed the items fit well into this box. They are wrapped in tissue and in their own shaped homes in the box, no chance of any breakages. The pans themselves are heavy, no doubt. The quality is amazing, the lids a good fit with steam holes and the Ninja logo on the handle. They work on all cooker types, including induction and the large one is big enough to cook for at least 4 if not 6 people, the smallest one is not tiny but a good size. Yes they are expensive, yes you get what you pay for. A great investment if you are constantly using false economy and purchasing low quality pans that lose their coating and need replacing often.
I’ve had Ninja products in the past but didn’t realise they did cookware. This set contains 3 different sized pans measuring 17cm, 19cm and 21cm in diameter (measurement taken from the top of the pans). First impressions were very good, they feel solid, weighty (but not too heavy) and good quality. I have a Siemens induction hob and the pans looked like they’d fit on each of the smaller rings. I must say that the medium sized pan would only work on the smallest ring on my hob which was the my only slight disappointment. I was worried that the lidded handles would be hot to the touch whilst cooking but can confirm this is not the case and amazingly all the handles remained cool enough to hold during cooking.
These are so easy to clean, food very easily wipes and rinses away. I didn’t realise how bad my original pans were before trying these.
I loved this pan set so much that I’ve already purchased more from the same range and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
These pans are really nice. They’re sturdy, well made and they look really good.
You get a milk pan, three different sized pans with lids and a frying pan.
The lids are nice – made of glass with a metal rim and a good sized solid handle. The handles on the pans are solid not hollow so they feel good in the hand.
You can use these on any type of hob including induction. They can also be used in the oven (lids only for 30mins).
I cooked burgers in the fry pan and let it cool before I washed it. It all washed off really easily, even the crusted cooked bits came off with ease. I also heated soup and purposely left the pan to dry before I washed it. Again it washed with no hard scrubbing.
You can put these in the dishwasher but they do recommend that you don’t do this all the time. To be honest they wash so well by hand you probably won’t need to.
I only wish there was a lid for the frying pan.
Plus they come with a 10 year guarantee. (Registration required).
Ninja Foodi ZEROSTICK 5-Piece Pan Set – wow absolute quality and style. Over the years I have slowly progressed from average quality non stick pans to more and more expensive sets with very mixed experiences. I own a single pan that boasts Anodised Aluminium, little to no oil etc and cost 45, it was a present and I had hoped to add to the set. However, I just found the pan disappointing, had to add more oil than I wanted and felt generally ripped off.
I say all this because I can’t praise these pans enough, the set contains 5 pans and all of them are a joy to use.
The first thing that struck me was how well packed the set was, each piece individually wrapped in tissue and protected for transport which says a lot, the manufacturer definitely values their product.
The pans are pure quality, they look amazing, sleek and heavy, I weighed the milk pan and it is 700g. Good weight is important, no sliding around on the hob or easily knocked. The glass lids are solid, strong and fit the pans perfectly,the handles are a good length.
Wow the food cooks so well, there’s a picture of a fried egg on the box and it shows a lovely perfectly cooked egg with slight crisping around the edges and thats exactly how my egg cooked – I didn’t use any oil.
Overall this pan set is excellent quality and although initially cost quite a lot they are an investment with a 10 year guarantee.
This is the best set of pans I have ever owned. I love that nothing sticks or burns. When I made porridge in one of them, it simmered nicely and did not catch as it can with other pans. Perfect porridge. Then I fried some eggs in the frying pan. No sticking and I was able to achieve lovely crisp edges and flip over quickly to finish off. I wasn’t sure about seasoning the frying pan but I smeared some oil and waited a couple of minutes anyway for the pan to heat up, which seems to be the best way to use these pans. It does say that in the instructions anyway. Perfect results.
These pans are very easy to clean. I rinsed off the surplus porridge. It wasn’t stuck but you can never get it all out of the pan. Then a quick sponge round in soapy water and it was done.
The pans are heavy but not too heavy.
The handles on the pans do not get hot, even though they are steel.
I really like the lid handles as they are so much better to get hold of than a round knob, especially with wet hands when a knob might slip and I have had that happen to me with other lids. However they do get hot as you might expect.
There is nothing not to like really. They don’t stack well but then perhaps it is better not to stack them? I don’t have anywhere to put one of those pan stands, so I have cleared out the cupboard to fit them in. I have thrown out all my old pans anyway, except my wok pan, so there was some space in the cupboard for them.
I am very happy indeed!
Having used them for a few months I still think they’re the best I’ve ever had.
I just have to say though, that the handles are slippery and with the pans being heavy, it can be difficult to pour something out straight from the pan. The handle slides round in your hand. Therefore it is best to put the pan down on a trivet or mat, and use a ladel or large spoon to dole out the contents.
Impressed by the careful packaging and lack of plastic used. Packing was all cardboard or paper.
The pans themselves are weighty but not excessively so. Milk pan has two pouring sides, very handy in our family where my husband is a lefty and I am ambidextrous.
These look great and match really well with quite a lot of our existing cookware and kitchen electricals.
There are strict riveted handles on the lids and in fact every design and manufacturing element shows thought and good quality.
To stack them we found we had to follow the advise on the instructions and put paper towels between the upturned lids and the base because otherwise they’re too slippy. This looks a bit untidy so I plan to buy a pan stacker to resolve this and is why these are 4 stars rather than 5.
Where to begin with this set, the set arrived packaged really well with all the items individually wrapped and spaced apart with cardboard.
Inside you get the following, 1 x 160mm milk pan with a pouring notch on either side, 1 x 160mm saucepan with lid, 1 x 180mm saucepan with lid, 1 x 200mm saucepan with lid, 1 x 240mm frying pan.
The pans are really well made, I’ve had a career in manufacturing for 20+ years now and I’d be proud to have been a part of the team to design and manufacture these, smashing job all.
The handles are are cast stainless steel and riveted in place, no dodgy screws coming loose with this set, the handle design allows minimum heat transfer through into them whilst remaining sturdy to hold, the handles have a hanging hole if you wish to use also.
The pans feel a nice weight so given they are aluminium the coating must be pretty thick and heavy to justify the weight, they are super easy to clean and if you hand wash these and look after them they will last a very long time I’m sure, they are dishwasher safe if you choose though.
The lids are a great fit and they have a thin rim to be able to store easily, the lid handles are also riveted on and made from glass/stainless steel.
The pans come with some instructions also for you to get the best out of using them, no need for cooking oils the Ninja Foodi ZEROSTICK non stick coating works like a dream.
They work well on my induction hob, even cooking and the heat transfer works fast and well with no issues, let the pans cool before washing though.
They are fully oven safe to a maximum of 260 degrees Celsius
I like the Ninja brand and the detailing to the lids and handles they are pretty neat
10 year guarantee with these upon registering providing you follow the care instructions.
If you are after a quality pan set then look no further, highly recommend these, thank you.
This pan set was received for free under the Amazon program.
My findings are unbiased by them or the seller.
I’m a long term cook who loves a fry up and cook most days.
My usual fry pan is a masterclass which I like as it can also go to the oven. My pans are le creuset and are the triply range as I use an induction hob.
This set under review contains smaller pans than i like so the smallest is not going to see much use. The milk pan however looks useful as it’s got a pour spout on each side so I won’t be punished for being left handed.
The pan which is largest is not as deep as my own of the same diameter. But, it’s therefore more compact. It doesn’t have a steadying handle which further reduced the space needed for storage. I read the instructions which said do not store them inside each other or risk spoiling the non stick surface. So I’m using tea towels as liners and works good.
I love the performance of the pans and the frying pan. The fried bread and eggs were evenly cooked, and the egg cleaned off well when I deliberately broke one to see the results on cleaning.
The pan was used to boil one litre water. I timed it and compared it to my ke creuset. It was the same but I did notice if you look at the time lapse video that the bubbles of the base sections where the water was heating were like frog spawn they were so even. My pan was centred around the induction magnet area in a ring. So this ninja zero stick pan is superior in its design. I now from a lifetimes cooking if you have an uneven pan you will get hot spots and burning and hard to clean etc.
I like that the lids are clear and with air steam vent to help stop them rattling whilst cooking and to help prevent boil over.
The handles are incredibly well styled and all metal with a hang hole.
These pans are definitely looking like they are going to last.
I did check the price and they are comparable to the le creuset Tri ply price so they might seem expensive but these have a non sick surface which means if you look after them they could be giving you ten or more years of use. The company say you have to register which might out most off though. They also say to use metal implements is ok as long as not knives and forks or electronic whisks but I would not as I’ve done that in the past and ruined vases of cookware. Just get some silicone ware like I did from the start and ban metal tools from use on non stick cookware!
This set is high quality and worth the price they are charging I therefore recommend it. Had it been available when I invested in my Le creuset I would have bought it as it’s non stick unlike my pans were.
great solid pans and frying pan. easy to clean and non stick.
In short I very literally couldn’t be any happier with this set! Absolutely brilliant set of pans from Ninja which are incredibly well made, solid as a tank and look absolutely awesome and match the rest of our kitchen ware perfectly with a clean and sharp modern look that also looks professional. The quality is clear both in feel when you pick them up and use them and in how well made they are and how great the look. The non-stick coating works flawlessly if you like to pot roast or fry certain stuff with no oil or as little oil as possible which is something we’ve become better and better at over the last year or so and since using air-fryers, so it’s great to have some pans that can do the same as well as this without completely destroying them or ruining your food. On the hob they cook incredibly well and seem to spread the heat very evenly but you can also use the pot in the oven directly which is awesome and great for getting things going before moving to the hob when ready. They’re dishwasher safe but they’re so easy to clean I’m going to stick to cleaning them by hand – I trust they’d be fine in the dishwasher but can’t bring myself to put them in there! Amazing set and would love to now get some more bits in this range as the look is just perfect and couldn’t be happier with them.
