I use this size most out of all of my kitchenware + pots. Absolutely an essential, and I've now acquired 3. It is ceramic, so its more easily breakable than other materials. However with proper care they last and its still more affordable than Le Creuset for equal health benefits.
Takes a while to get hot. Covering the pot helps retain the heat and helps it boil. Easy cleanup.
I love my ceramic pan! Once I learned to cook with it (let it heat up slow, then use oil) it cleans up so easily and cooks so well! Feels like great quality! Best part is that it is full ceramic, no chemicals.
I use this a lot. On top of stove, in oven and under broiler. Steak, burgers, bacon. Plus reheating meals. I live alone so it’s perfect size for me.
We wanted to switch all of our cookware to a healthier option (free of heavy metals) and after thorough research decided on Xtrema. We wanted a pan to replace our previous large sauce pan. The 12 inch is plenty big and works wonderfully. It stays hotter for much longer and cooks very nicely! Very happy with our purchase.
We were wanting to switch all of our cookware to a healthier solution, free of heavy metals. After thorough research, we decided on Xtrema. So far we have used the stock pot about 15-20 times for mostly noodles—and it has been wonderful! Clean up is also a breeze. We just let the pot cool for about 10 min and then fill with water to soak for a bit. Then the excess just wipes off when cleaning. Great purchase! Xtrema customer service is also wonderful!
I use it to boil water for oatmeal and coffee. great size for 1 to two people. I've also used it for spaghetti but I break the spaghetti.
Love this pan! Was not expecting it to be as small as it is, but definitely get a lot of use out of it. Will be getting the bigger size.
I love my Versa pot set! They’re aesthetically pleasing, and it’s nice to know they’re not leaching anything into your food! I gave my sister one of my pots & she liked it so much she bought a couple Xtrema pans as well.
One of my pots recently got a small crack and they immediately sent me a new one. Amazing warranty and customer service!
This is huge! I always buy the biggest frying pans because I want alot of cooking surface and I discovered that non-stick 12" pans usually have big sloping sides so that the bottom ends up being only 8 or 9 inches. So I was surprised to find that this pan had almost an 11" bottom. Works great when I fry up slices of zucchini, I can get alot in the pan and they all can lay flat to fry.
Holds heat and you can cook at lower temperatures. So easy to clean. Wonderful to know that I am cooking healthy.
I was visiting a family member and was making a cake that requires a glaze. I used one of the XTREMA pots to make the glaze in and when I finished I set the pan aside to cool. We got to talking and I forgot about it. When I went back to clean up, the glaze had hardened and was like cement on the pan. I was afraid to clean the pan for fear of damaging it since I had never used this type of cookware before. Much to my surprise it cleaned up with no effort whatsoever. I used hot soapy water and a sponge with a nylon scrubber on the back. No elbow grease to speak of. Just hot soapy water. I was so impressed by this cookware I bought myself a set when I got home.
I have been using this saucepan for 5 months without any issues. Heating is uniform and no thermal cracks so far. Following instructions is key.
Love this set of tools! They have held up well and are very handy.
I love this stock pot! Great size and great quality! I definitely love the fact that I am not only cooking healthy but using tools that are also healthy.
I have high quality stainless steel pans from France that I used for years and wow since switching to Xtrema ceramic it has quickly grown to become my absolute favorite pan will purchase many more!
The 10qt Dutch oven is now my absolute favorite among all of my Xtrema collection!
I am so glad that I pre-ordered one! Now that it has arrived and I’ve used it several times, I could never live without it!
I used the Dutch oven, in combination with the round baking rack and flawlessly executed the preparation of a prime rib roast…it was cooked to absolutely the most perfect medium rare I have ever been able to achieve!
We are an exclusively Xtrema house!
Looking forward to future new products!
This 8” versa skillet is PERFECT!
It’s just the right size for preparing dipping/drizzling sauces for both savory and sweet….
Or…it’s the perfect size for a personal deep dish pizza (or brownie)!
I love using it to sauté onions and mushrooms to top the amazing steaks I produce from my 12” versa skillet!
I absolutely LOVE my 12” versa skillet! It is the perfect cookware for making flawless melt in your mouth steaks cooked to the perfect temp!
The ability to pan sear, and then Finish in the oven ( with ceramics superior thermodynamic properties) with the same pan not only has upped my steak game, it has made clean up a lot simpler too!
P.s. Customer service is AMAZING. Super quick response, amazing associates who go above and beyond to make sure your happy not only with your purchased product, but also happy with the company as a whole. Excellent folks to chat with!
From the bottom of my heart, thank you!
