Alva Forest Carbon Steel Frying Pan 2-Piece Set - Acacia Wood Handle, Naturally Nonstick & Toxin-Free Cookware

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This skillet was easy to use with a good nonstick surface. The skillet is a good size for eggs, grilled cheese, etc. it is handwashing only, which is not very convenient.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The design of this pan is definitely stylish. I like that you can have style without losing functionality. That is a great design. It is quite smooth and has great quality. Perfect for seasoned steaks. Maintenance is same as the steel pan.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a non stick pan, worked really well while cooking. The package says hand wash, and I still ended up with water rust spots. Make sure you dry all the way before storing it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This skillet is a bit of a mixed bag in the most charming way. It’s wonderfully lightweight, surprisingly non-stick, and the wood handle feels so comfortable in the hand — like it was actually designed by someone who cooks. But here’s the catch: this pan is temperamental. You basically have to treat it like a delicate little diva on the stove. If the heat isn’t set to very low, it will scorch your food in seconds. Even on just medium low heat, my grilled cheese got a little more toasty than I prefer. The flip side to that, though, is the heat distribution was even, so at least it burned evenly. Once you adjust to its overly sensitive personality, it can turn out some great results — but there’s definitely a learning curve. Perfect if you want something light and stylish… just be ready to cook low and slow.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great size and heavy duty weight. Has a great frying capacity. Gave a great sear to my breakfast sausage. It’s amazing pan and wish I would have purchased this before. Storages great as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pan is amazing! I was so excited about this claim. I’ve used to multiple times since I received it, making anything from eggs, pancakes, chicken, grilled cheese, etc. Nothing sticks and the cleanup is so easy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Okay. This pan is amazing. I love the look of it. The wood handle. It’s beautiful. It’s so easy to clean. It was quick to heat up and cooked my eggs flawlessly and nothing stuck to it whatsoever. Needless to say it’s my new favorite pan

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this frying pan! The heat distribution is amazing, its versatile for steaks to veggie stir fry. Easy to clean and durable. It came preseasoned so that's a plus. Great value for the price.

I have just tried this cookware. It is amazing.Best non-stick I have ever seen.

Love the wood handle, the very near non-stick, this has become our go-to frying pan. Would love to see other models with wood handles.

I purchased the 9.5" Forest fry pan after doing some intense research on the company and the products. This fry pan is like nothing I have cooked with before. It feels and cooks like cast iron, but without the bulk and unwieldly weight. The surface is amazing (and safe). I use an induction cooktop and have used the pan on lower heat for fluffy eggs, medium heat for stir fried vegies and have seared steaks on high heat to perfection. Nothing sticks and the cleanup is as easy as wiping with a bit of hot water. I am saving up some money to purchase the 8" and 11" pans!

Straight out of the box, Washed it 1st, heated it up, used a very scant tsp butter, and a 3 egg omelet slid around, no sticking at all. Next day, 3 whole eggs, same amt of butter, same result. Have used it a couple more times for dinner meals. It is in the front line in my kitchen now for stove top. I’m familiar with how to use carbon steel cookware but this is my 1st blue CS. I really (really) like it. The wooden handle stays cool, cleans up in a flash. I oil it a little bit after each use. Will stove top season soon. If it keeps up the good work, this one will be handed down. If you enjoy the sport of cooking with this type of pan, you’ll really like this one☺️

Cooks evenly. Love the wooden handle that does not get hot. Easy to clean and looks great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pan is very durable and is great for searing on stove before transferring to the oven! I have no issues which the heat distribution and this pan is very easy to clean. The handle is cute and functional!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] quite convenient medium--sized frying pan, suitable for both gas and electric use. .non-stick coating food does not burn , it is easy to wash..

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used the frying pan two times already. I made my homemade Alfredo pasta and I have sautéed some chicken and vegetables. It’s definitely nonstick. I have an electric stove and it didn’t burn and because of the nonstick, the clean up was super easy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great pan. Definitely non stick. Cooked some steak and accidentally burned one of them and the burnt parts did not stick to the pan. Was able to wash the pan easily without having to scrub hard. Perfect size as well and the handle is a good size.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pan seems great for frying. The material looks very durable and easy to clean after using. The wooden handle makes for an easy grip and a stylish look.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently started using the Alva cookware Forest 9.5 carbon steel frying pan, and it has been a game-changer in my kitchen. The carbon steel construction ensures excellent heat retention and even cooking, which is perfect for searing meats and sautéing vegetables. I appreciate how quickly it heats up, and the natural non-stick surface that develops with seasoning makes cooking and cleaning much easier. The pan's weight is substantial without being too heavy, giving it a sturdy feel. Overall, the Alva Forest frying pan has significantly improved my cooking experience, and I highly recommend it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an incredible pan for cooking. It distributed hear really well and is a great size for cooking eggs, omlette, etc. The handle is thick wood and very easy to hold. Very easy to clean and is dishwasher safe 👍
