    • @cultflav
      @cultflav  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That's a very specific list... where did you come up with that? Lead and PFOA are both illegal to add to cookware and therefore aren't likely to be found in any NEW cookware. PTFE and PFOA would both be classified as PFAS, which this does not contain. Cadmium is rarely found outside of colored enamel glazes, which this also doesn't contain.

    I've been watching reviews on this pan and this was the first channel to say that there actually IS a coating, which it does. Everyone else is going off the marketing claim that there is no coating. So thank you.

    • @cultflav
      @cultflav  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      I've now (just this morning) gotten a response from their team and they make a very pedantic claim that it's not a coating simply because it's not applied, it's created by a thermal process that causes the titanium to react with the air creating a layer of titanium oxide. I would still contend that an additional layer that *coats the surface* is, in fact, a coating.

    • @koko4620
      @koko4620 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      ​@@cultflav while it is by technical definition a coating, it would be nitpicking to toss it in the same catagory of PAN coatings like nonstick Teflon. Titanium dioxide forming from treating titanium is still far from the lack of durability of traditional non-stick. Just playing devil's advocate, we'll still have to see long term it's true durability

    • @cultflav
      @cultflav  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      @koko4620 eh, if they're pedantic about it for marketing purposes and the surface is covered in another material, I certainly feel comfortable saying it's coated by it bc that surface is fully (and easily) removable. Also it's just such silly marketing... 🤷‍♂️
      In good news, I've gotten a lot more info from the Our Place team and put this pan to a few more tests with very interesting results (like removing said "coating"). Filming the follow-up now, should be out in the next couple weeks!

    Good review. The best feature of this pan is that it has welded handles; no rivets. It's amazing to me how many premium brands of cookware use rivets, which are unsanitary in practice. One final point: titanium dioxide, which is used as a white paint pigment (among other things) is NOT the same as titanium oxide. This pan looks like it was coated in a plating process, and then abrasively relieved on the high faces of the hexes. Some pans, like Heston, use vacuum-deposited titanium -chromium alloy in their process, not oxides, which should be superior. At this price point, this pan may also have received it's surface in a vacuum-dep process, but you are correct that it was applied to flat sheet, then stamped into the pan shape. Keep up the good work!

    • @cultflav
      @cultflav  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Based on the patent spec, it looks like thermal curing was required for the coating, so my best guess was molding/3d printing the pattern + bake + abrasion of the grid - hard to know for sure without a design patent, which I couldn't find. I did find that titanium dioxide was referred to as "titanium (IV) oxide" and may have misunderstood the differentiation. Regardless, always appreciate a nuanced critique 🤝

    • @kolbypham7318
      @kolbypham7318 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Chemistry wise, you're correct that titanium 4 oxide is literally the same as titanium dioxide. Oxygen's charge is -2 so 2 oxygens are bonded to a +4 titanium, hence titanium dioxide. So now I'm even more confused than before about the marketing of this coating that really is no different (chemically) than mineral sunscreens. Of course application and dosage can make a big difference.​@@cultflav

    I'm also going to go back and find out what you dislike about that innocent spatula, because while I'm happy to think that the holder on the handle that only works with that specific spatula is absolutely silly, I don't really follow what's wrong with the spatula itself other than its absolute lack of need to exist and I'm sure it costs too much to replace it too.

    Companies that disable comments are a HUGE red flag for me. They actually only make things worse for themselves by doing that IMO. Kind of like they are publicly confirming that they are worried about their own product’s quality. I’d think If they allowed comments even if every single one was bad, a lot of customers would just assume many are from competitors. it’s the nature of people when they want something. They tend to shut off common sense.

      Nickel isn't toxic at high temps necessarily. It requires leaching in large amounts to become toxic and that requires high acidity over a very long time to be impactful.Titanium is more stable up to way higher temps than used for cooking in its raw form and is far more stable and thus not a concern (afaict) in this titanium nitride form.

    I have a question about the Heston Nanobond pan that you showed near the beginning of the video. The stains on it look a lot like rainbow staining that other sorts of stainless steel can get. There was a video recently making the rounds, demonstrating that those sorts of stains can be (apparently) easily cleaned with a vinegar and water mixture. Does that happen to work for the Heston? Also in regards to the Always pan... the design is seriously so offputting, even if the cooking surface was truly innovative I would wait for it to come in a more conventional package. Seriously, who puts a slippery as heck, SQUARED OFF handle on a saute pan?

      So the challenge is that no cookware actually contains toxins which are technically "antigenic poisons produced by plants or animals". All cookware can be harmful depending on how it's used, and lots of production is harmful in itself. Nonstick tends to be more likely to be harmful because of its production requirements and its frequency of misuse. There's nuance here that just doesn't make for good marketing.

      The titanium is put in a very high-heat oven to cause it to react with the air which forms that black coating on the surface. Then it's milled away from the raised titanium leaving titanium oxide inside the hexagonal cells, which acts (relatively) nonstick.

    Thank you for your review - I watched it before ordering mine, I thought I can always return it if unhappy.
    I just got my pan and I’m pretty happy with it. The coating looks good, and it doesn’t seem to suffer from the grey color issues you noticed in your review.
    For people like myself, who are looking for a healthy, non-stick coating, this pan seems a good option! 👍
    It would be awesome if you could review the pan again to see if quality has improved!

  • @halifaxhiker
    @halifaxhiker 20 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I’ve watched a ton of reviews and my main takeaway is… cool technology that apparently works but it’s let down by a number of poor design choices like the square handle, hot handles, the stupid slot, cheap lid, etc. I bought it anyway because I rarely use a lid and if I do I’m just letting the dish sit and simmer… I’m not actively engaged with the pan. And I hate stainless because everything sticks to it like shit to a blanket and it’s a massive pain to clean. And I’m sick and tired of buying new teflon pans constantly. And I’m not super keen on cooking with a coated pan if there’s an alternative that has no coating, is non-stick enough, easier to clean, safe at any temp, fine with metal utensils, etc. There are a lot of pros and the unfortunate design flaws, while disappointing, were not bad enough to be deal breakers for my use cases.
    I considered HexClad as well and while the usability and design and lid of those are much better ultimately it’s still a Teflon pan and the Teflon is still going to break down eventually and/or flake off.

    • @cultflav

      No such thing as a "healthy pan". They're all unhealthy under certain conditions. What matters is that it's used appropriately. PTFE is convenient within its operating conditions (e.g. soft utensils + low heat). Carbon steel is decent outside of those conditions. Stainless when you need to cook something acidic.
