Just picked up an 8" to go along the 12" I currently own. Great pan.

Not a good experience for me with this pan, it is very thin, and does not distribute heat evenly. T does clean up pretty easily though and is not too heavy—note I have used it on an induction stove.

Pretty good review over at Wirecutter/NYT, especially at this price https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutte...steel-pan/

I'm pretty happy with my CI pans and dutch ovens for every use case I have for 12" pans, but the 10" at $21 is very tempting. I'd love 2-3 6" pans, as long as I can use standard lids on them. In short, a 6" version of this pan, with that same shape on the sides. This brand doesn't make that size. I've asked on the carbon steel subreddit, but didn't get any helpful suggestions. Does anyone here know of a good option for this?

Thanks! Had the 10" pan for 2+ years, wife uses it for everything, it had held up well. Just picked up 12" for stir frys.

Got the 8 and 12. Let's see if the use is similar to cast iron. Cause the weight of cast iron is killing me

Carbon steel and Cast Iron don't really do well on induction. From my experiences, stainless steel all the way, or if you need the non-stick properties of carbon steel, go for a Strata carbon steel pan. It's basically like an all-clad stainless steel pan with a carbon steel upper layer that you cook on. It's the only one of it's kind, which makes it expensive, but so far I've had good results with them. Much more even than carbon steel on induction.

This M&S pan is supposedly comes from the same company that makes OXO's popular carbon steel pan.

If you can, get the one from Tramontina, its heavy and reasonably priced. I have been using it for 18 months and has been great. Never owned more expensive ones, so would not know how much better the others would be. This is the one I have - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09HLD833Q

They are inexpensive, but are thin and likly to warp before you get any real use out of them. And yes, Merten & Storck are owned by the same company that owns OXO, The Cookware Company [cookware-co.com].

These are expensive, but buy them instead...

Or for something affordable but higher quality than the Merten & Storck...

Is there any health risks with carbon steel compared to stainless or ceramic coated pans? I'm tired of finicky ceramic coated pans that wear out and fall apart. I love cast iron but they are so heavy

You season carbon steel the same way you season cast iron. it is like a cast iron pan, but smoother, thinner and lighter

Did you check if the problem of heat distribution related to your induction stove or the pan. Heat distribution can be quite different between different models of induction stoves.

I have the 8" version and it's an excellent pan. it's never gonna heat as evenly as a heavy cast iron or 3-ply stainless steel with an aluminum core, but it's not terribly uneven (on the 8") and it's really nice quality for the price. Just remember to clean and season after every use like cast iron.

Cheers,

I'm surprised you've recommended madeIn and not mention Matfer or deBuyer.

for some reason the Tramotina is only rated up to 500F. this M&S is rated up to 660F
