We have the set from Costco. This is not like any piece in that set. Would be a good addition for someone who already has the set.

It doesn't say pfte free, so we can presume despite the marketing jargon of "hybrid" and tri-ply, it's just another teflon-like nonstick cooking surface. Not sure if it is anything special. This means like all the other "teflon-like" surfaces, you shouldn't use high heat.

Marketing jargon. It doesn't say pfte free, so it's just another teflon-line surface. Everyone is trying to be different and try to have the "advantages of nonstick" and the safety of stainless, but in the end it's just another teflon-like cooking surface, which means despite it saying up to 500 F, you shouldn't cook it in high heat.

Learn to cook with stainless/cast iron and get a cheap nonstick pan for eggs and forget these marketing BS.

It IS Teflon. Their site admits it, but you have to dig a bit to find it. Generally speaking, all 'non-stick' pans are either teflon or ceramic. Teflon is superior non-stick, but can break down and flake with heat/age/metal utensils,etc. Ceramic is more resistant to heat damage, scratches and ages better than Teflon, but can also become stickier if using high heat. Best to use low and medium heat for all non-stick cookware, and use cast iron for high heat/searing.

If this has a Teflon coating, why does the description say, "Able to use metal utensils without scratching surface." Also the description says, "Triple-layer stainless steel with our patented Hexclad PFOA free non-stick surface."

It basically has grooves and dots that makes the surface not completely flat. The parts that's the hills has no teflon and is stainless steel. And the parts that's the valley has teflon. When you use metal items, it only scraps the stainless steel part of the work.

Sounds like a gimmick to me. I'm pretty sure my utensils could scratch the valleys.

Uncle Roger would not approve of a $150 Teflon wok. Pass.

Also, PFOA has been banned (edit: 'phased out', since 2013, according to EPA, PTFE made using a non-PFOA process) in cookware for years now, but of course is still being used as a selling point.
