Ozeri Elite Chef Black Ceramic 3-Piece Knife Set

Good knives, though easily chipped.
The positive points of this product, is the quality, design and lightweight feel of the knives. They cut well and fit ergonomically in the hand. For quick, thin or precise cuts, I would recommend it.

Personally, I felt like the blade would "stick" to what I was cutting, forcing me to slip the food off the blade each time I cut something like a tomato. However, I am not skilled with a knife, nor am I chef.

For the first couple uses, the blade seemed very sturdy. Over time I noticed that I began to treat the knives too cautiously so that I would not chip them. After a few weeks, I noticed little chips on the blade and the tip is no longer sharp. This concerns me, as I may have prepared food with pieces of ceramic in the dish. I am not rough with my kitchen tools, and treat them with care. I was disappointed to learn that the knives were not as sturdy as advertised to be.

Overall, this is a good product, but not ideal if you have to constantly worry about...

I love my Ozeri Elite Chef knife set !
Firstly, let me tell me about easy the Elite Chef Black Ceramic 3 piece Knife Set is to handle.They are very light (all 3 pieces of the set only equal to 1 lb !) ,and to me it seems that the build/design of the handle help to hold and use the knife better and longer.The set includes the a 6′ Chef's Knife, a 5′ Slicing Knife,and a 3′ Paring Knife.They are each branded with the Ozeri name on them and they have black super soft,super light handles on them that have a shiny metal edging to them. They cut just as amazing as they look,too ! I have used my knives for various cooking projects ,but one of favorite ones was when I used the Chef's knife to take the skin off of my pineapple when I was making Hawaiian pulled pork. The Ozeri 6′ Chefs knife cut the rind off of that pineapple like it was soft butter.I didn't even need to put any effort into at all.I have also used the Chefs knife to butterfly chicken and to chop/dice my fruit,veggies,and herbs.I really love...

Sharp Ceramic Knives
I just received these knives and am amazed by their sharpness; I sliced a tomato and a lemon and the knife cut through them with ease. I'll be using them more than my Japanese and German metal knives, and at this price, they cost less than those knives. If you're looking for some inexpensive kitchen knives to start your collection with, these are the ones to buy. A word of warning, though, ceramic knives can't be used for cutting through bones and don't flex like metal ones, so you'll still need a good quality metal knife and/or kitchen shears for your kitchen.

10-Inch Stone Earth Pan by Ozeri, with 100% PFOA-Free Stone-Derived Non-Stick Coating from Germany

Fabulous pan!
I needed a non-stick pan, mostly for eggs. Cannot have regular coated non-stick in the house because of the potential to kill our birds. This Ozeri pan is absolutely wonderful. Nothing sticks. It actually seems clean with a wipe of a paper towel, but I do wash it by hand.

The pan says to wipe with oil before using the first time, which I did. You aren't supposed to use it above a medium temperature, nor expose it to thermal shock. It says you don't have to use special utensils, but I am still using Teflon safe ones.

It's a good weight and transmits heat well. I just love it. It just stays on the stove all the time, and I use it a couple of times a day.

If my opinion of the pan changes over time, I will edit this review.

Awesome pan
We've had the pan for a few weeks now. Love it! Takes only a small amount of oil and nothing sticks to it. I've made pancakes, eggs, stir fry, fish & chicken. No problem! The 10" pan is a nice size for cooking everything. I never notice the handle getting hot like my stainless steel pans. Directions say to not heat the pan more than medium heat, but I don't turn it up higher than that anyway. Not sure what would happen to the pan if I did. I don't put it in the dishwasher either, just hand wipe clean. My only gripe is that the pan is a little heavy but that may just be my wrist (injured years ago). Other than that, we use this pan everyday!

Cooks good; but needs to be babied
I have been pleased with its nonstick properties so far. It also is a very attractive frying pan. Is heavier than most frying pans which I like. After ordering I found out that it should not be heated above medium heat. The instructions said this would not be a problem as it has superior heat transfer. I have not found this to be the case. It seems what you save in cleanup time is counterbalanced by what you lose in cooking time. I have cheaper nonstick pans that I feel free to use at high heat. I reckon they will not last as long but for the price perform better if cook time is included in the equation.

10" Stainless Steel Earth Pan by Ozeri, with a 100% PFOA-Free Non-Stick Coating developed in the USA

Great non stick pan and PFOA Free!
I am able to cook on a lower temperature because of this too. It cooks the food evenly and is oven safe up to 500 degrees, making this a great crepe pan. The crepes I made slid easily out of the pan with out tearing them up and leaving them looking pretty and appetizing.

Ozeri Earth Pan Safe and Easy To Clean
I received this pan for free but my opinions are my own!

Ozeri Earth Pan has become my favorite everyday pan. It is large enough and deep enough to cook just about anything in it. I use it for everything from scrambling eggs, to sautéing vegetables, browning meat, frying, and even stir fry. Thanks to it's effective nonstick coating, I use about 1/2 less of any type of grease than I would normally. It is nice to know I can cook delicious meals without worrying about harmful chemicals effecting my family.

Amazing Pan!
I have been wanting to try one of their pans for a long time and finally I got to and I was not disappointed! Gosh, it performed amazingly well and my salmon patties came out perfect. It's about the only time I will use a frying pan but I do use Olive Oil and it's Salmon, so it's still good for you.

I used a coated spatula so that I wouldn't scratch the surface and the patties flipped over so beautifully, nothing stuck to the pan! And the best part is that it is so lightweight. And that is because it only weighs 4 pounds, so you don't need heavy duty to get the job done! I had thought that it might be heavy, but it was absolutely perfect! The clean up time was practically non existent. All I had to do was take a paper towel and wipe it clean before I put in the dishwasher. Nothing stuck to the pan and for that I am so darn happy!

The Ozeri 10" Stainless Steel Pan is my new go to favorite pan! I plan on taking very good care of this pan so that it will last as...
