- Today I present my review of the Ninja Foodi Neverstick Pan after about 2 weeks of daily use. I also brought out 4 pans I've previously reviewed for some head-to-head tests: Always Pan, Granitestone Pan, Granitestone Pro, and Hexclad.

#panreview #ninjafoodi #neverstickpan - Jak na to + styl
I never thought I'd be watching a man review a pan for 20 minutes and it be the highlight of my day, but here we are lol
Yup lol
Can't believe I'm responding to a man commenting on how he never thought he'd be watching a man review a pan for 20 minutes. Yep. Here we are indeed.
It's Walter White!
@@norwegianzound I can’t believe I’m here responding to a guy commenting on another guys comment about another guys 20 minute review.....
But here we are
😂😂
YES A NEW PAN REVIEW WOOOOOOOOOO. I have been waiting for these. Love the channel keep up the great work and stay safe
Me too, it was because of James that I got a Granitestone pan.
I still haven't tested the new generation of those, but they made a vast improvement by adding a heat distributor to the bottom.
@@retluoc Ditto. I love those pans.
What's funny is I don't always care about the products sometimes. I just enjoy you talking about things passionately and following instructions lol
I think that's pretty common with most of us viewers!
Something about James is just so comforting and peaceful! I watch almost every night as I fall asleep. Makes me feel calm and takes my mind off the day's stressors.
And Bailey is the BEST!
...maybe you’re in love with him...😻
@@cruzmalibu4361 haha
He's a little outside the age range for that. :-)
@@cruzmalibu4361 Aren't we all? Those pilllow tests where he. . . oh never mind.
Heather - are you in MN?
1:08 I learned this a couple years ago. The "lifetime warranty" doesn't mean YOUR life time, it's the estimated life of the product.
What I really like about you James, is that you don't flood your vids with ads. I see 2 ads in a 20 minute video, a 20 minute video with a lot lot of effort put in.
In contrast, I've seen 10 minute videos with like 6 ads and it was just copy paste content.
Thanks for the awesome content as always. Cheers.
Oh yeah. I forgot about ads.
*CZcams Premium* Worth every penny, too.
Thank you for taking the time to review these pans! I’ve been researching pan/pot sets that hopefully won’t break the bank and this review has really pushed me in the direction of getting the Ninja Foodi set.
Really liked the multiple tests you did. Definitely a complete review with real use examples. Nice job.
I used to just watch your reviews of products I thought I was likely to use,now I find myself watching everything you produce!You must be doing something right! Keep em coming!
"A basic sauce, Cream of chicken and Tuna"
I don't even blame the pan for trying to burn that.
The only thing missing from that dish are the noodles......he said his kids like it...... :)
My grandmother would probably try making that. And that's a bad thing.
Is this a thing?
@@leonard5606 and peas!
@@frazh Unfortunately yes.
I've been waiting for this one! Ive read reviews and seen the commercials, but I wanted to see trusted reviewer, freakin reviews, give his take.
I absolutely love your reviews. Definitely the first channel that I look for, for reviews.
Thank you for this review. I have seen other people do side by side comparison reviews and haven't taken into consideration that it takes longer to heat and other reviewers won't let it preheat which would yield them bad results in return. Love your review on it.
I have the entire premium set for a few months now and love them. Best pots and pans I’ve ever had
This is an awesome review. I loved that you busted out some other pants to do a side by side test!!
Thank you so much for your reviews. They are thorough and well done. I just bought Ninja Forever pans, your video convinced me. I love them! My husband loves them too. He loved cooking his eggs in the never stick pan. Plus they are easy to clean too. Again, thank you so much for your reviews, they are very useful. Happy holidays to you and your family!
I usually buy cheap-ish pans but I invested in a sauté pan (the most used pan in my household) from the Foodi Neverstick line... I am SO HAPPY I did. I absolutely love it and try to use it over other pans when I cook.
I bought the Granitestone pan on your recommendation. It is such an amazing pan. Thanks
The first video I ever watched of yours was a nonstick pan review so these vids are always special for me 😊
Thank you for the thorough review. I was not expecting to watch all 20+ mins but you were very engaging.
i bought the whole set a few months ago and absolutely love it. to me personally it cooks like a cast iron skillet with the nonstick part.
As a Chef, you did a great job searing your filet. For someone who doesn't come across as a trained chef. You know how to cook a steak, a good cut deserves respect. Good review, good cooking. Props, my dude!
It was still blue in the center. Mooooooo
@@tbfit7808 blue steak is best imo xD the one criticism I'd give is he didn't sear the sides :)
@@tbfit7808 eww lol
LOL😂 Failed the so called egg test. Looks like I won't be investing in these.🎉
@@natrlchallenge What's wrong with using cooking spray before frying eggs, or are you trying to cut all costs 🤷♂️
Thank you for taking the time to compare products, I must say, I got the answers I needed. Thank you.
👍👍 Thanks for the help in making my decision. Great review with many examples.
I got my 12" Ninja Foodi pan for Christmas and I love it. It is so easy to clean.
Imagine all the extra groceries this man has to buy for these videos to entertain and inform us. We appreciate it.
As with many others on yt, tax write off..."operating expenses".
Hopefully, there are credit card points involved!
Gotta spend money to make money, to then spend it again to make more. It's pretty much the way of life tbh
Ha has stated he consumes pretty much any food he makes or drinks he opens for videos (unless it's really gross)
I watched your review and bought a Ninja Foodi from amazon, works great, thx for the vid! You have a new fan!
I grew up really poor and now that I have a decent income I'm still having a hard time fathoming $400+ on a pan set, but cooking is such a big love language for me and my cheap pans are getting in the way of that. You convinced me to pull the trigger, and practice some self love. Thank you ❤️
If you can wait till Black Friday kohls has it for under 200!
The cheap pans are a false economy as you replace them more, and I wouldn't mind spending the money if I knew for sure they would be good! BUT I've been conned so many times 😡
Both other comments here are great. Kohls had these on sale big time for Black Friday, and Amazon usually has good prices on the individual pans. Also, these are at the best price vs. performance point for getting great use for a long time. Buy once cry once. You will save more vs. having to replace cheaper crappy sets every couple years.
Exact same reason i am updating my pots and pans.
Neverstick got stuck pretty fast lol
Easy enough to clean though 👍
Right, but I don't buy a no stick pan for clean up, I buy it so I don't need to clean up (so to speak)
Got stuck Bc he didn’t have pan hot enough to start.
@Blaze Barrett you're right no one cares
My pans have not stuck thus far. Cooked eggs, steak, pork chops, fried rice etc. No sticking, easy cleanup.
@@donteven5712 You don't pre heat a pan for scrambled eggs. Either way they should not have stuck.
I go to your reviews a lot to check on a product that I am interested in purchasing. I bought these a week before your review was posted. I love these pots/pans.
I appreciate this test. I just bought the entire set of Ninja pots/pans and was pretty impressed. Especially with eggs.
Thanks for continuing to give me reasons to “one-up” my current pans or gadgets. Especially over the last year... I use you as my excessive pandemic online shopping addiction excuse. 😝
America’s test kitchen is a far better source for kitchen reviews. They do more through testing than mr reviews here can.
@@freybendele968probably doesn’t matter... you sound like you are a returner anyway lol.
@@awesomedave8484 Of course it matters, it can be alot of money
I’ve been using the complete set of NeverStick daily for a year and they are wonderful. Not one single problem with the NeverStick. Love ‘em!
Me, too. Been using for over a year. Best pans I ever had.
Contemplating on purchasing the Ninja Foodi pans. Glad I came across this review.
Thanks.
I got the pans!
This is the video that made me go get my own GraniteStone. I’ve watched a lot of the pan reviews and I’ve wanted a GraniteStone for a while but after this I watched the original review for it and I went and bought one the next time I was at the store
I remember my wedding, telling my wife that we would spend a lifetime together...
5 years later tho
Good one and if its real im srry for you
--😆😅😂So the marriage was a flash in the pan, huh?
@@eugenesjack7488 oh Jesus...lol! 🤣 It’s a joke!! Doesn’t matter if it’s true or not bc I’m sure he wasn’t looking for ur sympathy....just a laugh. 🙄
@@toms.1773 Relax. If its real and you posted it to the public you're definitely looking for attention
@@TheDirtyHotSnakes OMG Get a life. Just because he posted something that was meant to be funny doesn’t mean his looking for attention. Where’s your humour
Love seeing the Granite Stone again!
Thanks for having captions. It's much appreciated.
I have the granite stone pan. (The square one.) I bought it because of your review way back when. It's still my favorite nonstick pan. Thank you for your reviews!
I'm still using the Granitestone pan you recommended and it's amazing. I'll probably never use another pan again.
Unrelated to this review but I used your coupon code for the Granite stone set and saved $50, so thanks for that! I have used them multiple times a day for a few months now and am loving them.
Are you related to Sammy?
Bought a whole set for the wifey this past Christmas and she loves them. They are excellent pans.
I always love it when Freakin Reviews reviews a pan. There's something entertaining and comforting about seeing him cook food.
The real question is where he stores all of the pans and other products he gets when he’s done with them.
When cooking eggs, always let the pan heat up first. Sprinkle water on it, when it evaporates, it's ready to cook with. That's a recommendation for all cooking with a skillet.
Right? You get rubbery eggs if you put the eggs in a cold pan and then heat it up.
So Gordon Ramsay lied to us
Mercury ball test. Put drops of water in pan. If evaporates, heat too low. If many ball beads, too high. If beads like a ball and moves, just right. Something like that. Just saw "A trick everyone should know" (Make any stainless steel pan nonstick) on Blissfully Random channel. (See description to start at test and skip intro stuff.)
You should do 1 year updates every year for each pan, have it organized on playlists or something with detail on frequency of use and everything. I think that would help your channel grow.
I watch all the reviews, finally decide on the Granitestone Pro as my replacement for my old beat up pans.
I have such great results, I tell my mom (who was looking into the Ninja pan but was concerned with the price and lack of reviews), she finally takes my advice and gets some Granitestone Pro pans....
AND THEN YOU COMPARE THEM SIDE BY SIDE ONE WEEK LATER. But from the looks of it, there's no discernable difference in performance for the considerably more expensive Ninja pans, so that's a real breath of fresh air.
I'm going to have to get one of these. Thanks for the review !!
I got my Granitestone pans almost a year ago. I have baked, broil, and fried in them and they still work great! I will put them against Ninja pans any day.
It seemed to perform well; I am always impressed how you risk your pans by pushing them to the limit. I wish it came with a lid.
I just use a piece of aluminum foil for a lid
Picked this pan up because of your review. So far so good!
Awesome review. I'm so glad I didn't get those hexclad pans. Definitely thinking about getting the ninja cookware. Thank you.
I work at walmart and stock this pan all the time. Every time I see it all I think is I wonder when you will do a review on it amd now here we are.
be aware that the ones at Walmart are not all the "premium" ones. Walmart/Target sell the C100 which is a bit lower quality. They are however still great and well worth the money. I have also seen the Premium (C300) at Walmart sold as individual pans. Walmart/Target does not sell the set of C300 premium.
@@jameswarner5878 so Mr. James...I’m going to buy the set soon. Should I get them from the Foodie company instead of these department stores??
@@Nanna316 just saw your message. It depends how much you want to invest in cookware. If you have the budget and cook often get the more expensive stuff.
As this comment is 2 months late I'm curious, did you end up getting the Ninja Cookware.
@@Nanna316 BBB sale + their coupon.
Walmart sells the cheaper knock off for ninja neverstick
Love my Ninja Foodi Neverstick pans. I've had them for 4 months now. Never noticed the 5 year "Life Time Guarantee". I like that it is compatible with Induction stoves.
@ David. Did you register your pan? I did. Bought my 10 1/4" pan at a local grocery store (not Walmart). Am looking forward to using it.
@@marsha6549 I bought the set from Ninja so I hope it's registered.
@@daveshereduh I registered it at the ninja website listed on the packaging. Love mine so far. It's also heavier than I thought it'd be
Your video are great. Informative, funny and good editing.
as always, great and well presented review.
I just purchased the whole set a couple days ago! I tried the no oil egg test and was scared at first. Tried it again with a bit of oil and it worked great. Thanks for giving your take on it!
1 Year later how is it holding up?
Also, is it Metal Utensils safe?
@@MrTtaakk I still use it all the time and it still works like day one. It's definitely a little different than typical non stick. Cleans up perfectly. I don't use metal on it at all although I believe it's supposed to be safe.
@@blaker85 Okay👍 Thanks A Lot.
I just bought the ninja premium set. I tried the egg with no oil test. It did not work! I heated the pan up for around 6-7 minutes on medium heat (electric). I tried another time on low to medium heat, and another time on medium to high heat. They all stuck.
@@melissa4455 Most foods do end up sticking without oil. It does clean up easily though.
I watched Vivian do a review on this pan and she didn't even try. 😔
Thank you for doing an amazing, thorough review as always!!
Yes. Thank you MissPriss
Thanks so much you got a new subscriber and I love your content very informative and useful 👍 salutes from Utah :)
I was thinking of getting one of these but after this I'll look at other pans....thanks for the review 👍👍
I cook without any oil or butter so I appreciate that you did it both ways. I bought a Neverstick. So far, so good. But it is only a few months. I use a dishwasher so having one that doesn't get destroyed by the dishwasher was the most important part.
Why do you cook without oil or butter?
Thumbs up for pierogi 🥟 ❤️
Yes!
I just bought this pan and so far I am impressed. Loved the way it cooked my Jimmy Dean sausage for breakfast. Browned beautifully!
Excellent video straight to the point with no fluff and didn't nit pick.
Good review. I got the 11 piece set for 149 at Walmart. Wife and I absolutely love it. We cook our eggs in coconut oil for the good fats and it works great. Had for about a month, and I can already tell they most likely will last the five years they guarantee.
5 years...LOL My cast iron pans are 60 + years old passed down from Grams. Non stick pans are a joke.....the landfill is full of this junk.
@@kennyc388 well cast iron are just a whole nothing breed compare to the stuff they make now.
If it’s only 5 years that 12 dollar dollar store pan is really looking like a great buy.
Yep! I'm old, but I think I have more than 5 years left in my lifetime.
@@laurahubbard6906 Eh
There is no such thing as a true lifetime warranty unless you're talking about a Zippo Lighter. Zippo is the only company that gives a true lifetime warranty on their products with absolutely no questions asked.
@@benkeysor7576 Well technically, it's the lifetime of the pan, which could be anything from a few months to 100 years.
@@benkeysor7576 "The only"
How can you even say that? You know every product and company? Lmao.
Craftsman..
Thanks for another great review!
Picked up a set tonight. Cannot wait to use the.
IMO Oxo makes the best non stick skillet
Heats evenly and nonstick properties are stellar. Good longevity for a nonstick as well
I didn't realize OXO made pans. (Rethinking my support of the company as most of my kitchen tools are OXO)
I've used a lot of pans, OXO non-stick, Le Creuset non-stick (these are really good), ScanPan, Tfal, etc. I have to say for daily use the Ninja Neverstick is my favorite. It has good, even heat distribution that helps with a full pan of anything (usually bacon). It doesn't get nicked and scraped like some pans so you don't have to baby it. Clean up is a breeze. The only thing I've found as good is the Le Creuset non-stick stuff but that stuff costs like three times more and you have to baby them a lot more. The Ninja non-stick is where it's at. Perfect price point, lasts and cooks well. I'll buy more of their stuff when it's time to replace my other pots and pans.
Finally!! I’ve been on the hunt for a good pan. Will be buying this one vs the Hexclad
👍🏾 Can't wait to test my set out.
I bought and tested the 8" model of the Ninja pan . It works . Read the directions FCS . Because it is thick and its non-stick surface trades away some slickness for durability, you must pre-heat it properly before putting the food in ( about 3-4 min. on a gas stove and 5 minutes on an electric stove ) . Use medium heat or a touch hotter .
The thickness makes it heat evenly and should protect against warpage .
Let all pans cool completely before washing .
Tests that involve abuse of the pan or unrealistic conditions prove little ; Do not burn food in your pans !
Do not use cooking sprays as they can leave sticky stuff .
The Granitestone pans are thinner, less comfortable to hold and no match for the Ninja .
I just want a cover for my pan without it being extra.
Seriously right!!?? How often do we cook and wish we could cover it?? ALWAYS!! LOL
totally agree for 50 bucks why isnt there a lid? it doesnt have to be glass but at least its a lid
good point
cookie sheet
my trick is I go to a thrift store to get lids. they're literally $2
I like these reviews because it gives you a chance to compare to the prior pans which means we get to see how the other pans have held up over time.
When you were doing the marshmallow test, and you actually touched the pan, my heart jumped into my throat for just a moment, thinking that you were about to get hella mad fingers!
I bought this pan last year and it's the best I've ever used. What's interesting is that I tend to cook with a lot of butter and after I clean it, it still feels slippery. I use it almost daily and it's holding up great.
Are you still using it and has it held up?
@Colt Lee it's still holding up, no chipping or anything. I switched back to stainless steel so I'm not using it as often though.
Not sure if you've ever reviewed it but Flavourstone are the best pans I've ever used. I've had mine for 10 years and only had to replace one pan because I had a housemate that used metal utensils in it. Nothing sticks or burns in them. I have the original sapphire but I think they do diamond now.
Thanks for the review. I love Ninja products. I have the dual sided Ninja Foodie Air Fryer and use it daily.
Had a bad day today and seeing you released a video made me happy
Bummer, sorry to hear that.
Tomorrow is a new one! 👍✌
Still keeping my cast iron pan. USA made, less expensive, and good for a REAL lifetime (not 5 years...)
Same here.
Often 2 or 3 lifetimes!
I love this! I was just asking you to review these lol! Guess it was already in the works!
Edit-I think you're supposed to preheat the empty pan for a few minutes on medium heat before tossing food in. This is how to get maximum non-stick abilities
Also, eggs should be room temp for optimum nonstick.
The poi t is paying a high price for a pan, what is not made here.
Like your reviews. Well done. I got the full set of ninja pans/pots/lids recently for 250 and I’d say it’s a really good deal. They are great non stick pans but also work well for a good sear and nice even cooking. Bring oven safe is always sort of a must for me and they work great in that sense as well. Seem like they should hold up nicely with a little care.
Thank you for another great video! I love watching all of them!
I looked into purchasing the graniterock pan, but the original one is no longer available. Only the granitestone version.
Been waiting for this, but I wish you had replicated more of the demos shown in the infomercial. Also, I'd love to see your take on the Copper Chef Titan Pan hawked by Jet Tila.
Check out Vivian Tries. She did all of the things. Although I felt like I wasted my time on her review. Maybe you will find it helpful?
@@MissPrissKY Been there, done that. She seems to have misunderstood a lot of the material in the infomercial. And sandpapering the pans was just stupid.
@@laurahubbard6906 oh I agree. I've been watching her forever,. But lately it seems like she's just there to advertise her new clothing line.
We bought the 8" pan as a cheaper test to see how well the pans worked and were very happy with the performance. Was going to wait for your review to see the comparison before buying more, but we ended up buying more pans a couple days ago anyway. Have a set of 5 now, couldn't wait any longer.
How much money was it for your set of 5?
@@biancajingles2690 we bought them individually off Amazon since we didn't need duplicates of some lesser used pots. Less than $200. Target and other retailers have better deals for sets if you need everything in them.
@@insanegammer109 thanks for the info!
@@insanegammer109 I bought one from Amazon and two others from Walmart. Not what I would consider super expensive, but not as cheap as some of the budget non-stick. Was using a T-Fal which lasted several years before the coating began to chip off and I could not heat it on high like I can the Ninja pans. Not bad considering it was half the cost of the Ninja.
I got three of the 10 1/4 pans for $20 a piece from my target, what a deal.
Well done review, thanks for this.
That's a solid review! Thanks!
I just bought three of the Ninja's the 8, 10 - 1/4 and 12 inch fry pans and they are hands down the best non stick pans I've ever owned. I fried steaks in the pan with no oil or butter and there was no stick what so ever.
Kitchen gadgets videos my favourite 😬
I love your reviews they're very in-depth & not filled with alot of non-sense. You should expand your business i.e. hire others to review by giving them a list of things to try & a list of how to exercise each product like you would. Either way expand into different products you are one of the best reviewer out here in my humble opinion & I watch quite a few
After watching the infomercial I did some research then bought the 11 piece set on sale at Kohl’s for between $100-150 ( it was a while ago). I love it. Enjoyed your review. My advice is to clean while it’s still warm. Comes clean with a paper towel.
One thing to keep in mind is that because different materials and thicknesses in materials, its possible that one pan might heat up quicker than another. So a timed test is not always effective and could be why the hex clad one burned so much faster.
@Adam7986 - You are absolutely correct. The same heat/timed test is not effective when comparing two pans of differing material/weights. When searing, the pan that heats up the quickest will form a crust and release what you are searing quicker, which is why the shrimp stuck more to the Ninja verse the Granite Rock. This is also the rationale behind the cheese burning in the hexclad verse not burning in the ninja. For pans that conduct heat better, you have to learn how to cook at lower temps to get the same results. I've been cooking with the Hexclad for years now and absolutely love them but the Ninja NeverStick in my opinion is a very close, cost effective, second. HexClad's are built to last on average 20-30 years verses the 5 years for most traditional non-stick pans. This is why Hexclad's are so much more expensive. Also, not sure why most reviewers always do the egg challenge without seasoning the pans first. Most cookware states that in addition to intially washing pans in hot soapy water and drying, you should season them before begining to cook with them for the first time. If this were the case, the egg whould have slide around in the Hexclad with no problem.
My exact thoughts. He says it’s states it takes longer to heat … but he still gives them the same amount of time. Of course the others burned, lol they heat up quicker and were burning. Doesn’t really make it a fair comparison.
I love my ninja pans. I bought the entire set. My husband complained about me spending the money until he actually cooked with the pans himself.
I have had this pan for 2 years now. I purchased it after your review. It has done very well up until now. The pan started sticking a bit recently. I have abused this pan though over the last 2 years. We use it almost every day for breakfasts and dinners.
Bought the 8 and 10inch pan from BB&B yesterday....will probably continue to piece together the rest of the set to replace our older ones....Thanks for confirming my decision.
Somewhere in fine print on those nonstick pans it still says you got to spray it or add butter to the pan so it doesn't stick I'm telling you those things are just marketing ,
I'm obsessed with pans so when I seen the Notification I clicked Right away 😂
I just adore your cha nel, especially when you get to play with your food!! 😉😉
That was a pantastic review. Thank you!
I bought the Granite Pro set after your review. They are without question the best non stick pans I have ever owned. If they ever wear out I may consider the Ninja but that may take quite a while.
I must add that I use a Nu Wave induction cooktop which is far more precise than any other heat source so they are never overheated or charred. They are still just like new.
That brings to mind another suggestion I have made a couple of times, a review of the Nu Wave Pic Gold induction cooktop and comparison with gas (we don’t have gas here). I only use my electric stove if I need a 2nd burner.
