Full details
The ARCOS Thera 28 cm non-stick frying pan is designed for home cooks seeking an easy-to-use and clean pan suitable for all stovetops. Its primary benefit is the reinforced non-stick coating, ensuring food releases easily and simplifying cleanup.

Troubleshooting
Food sticking to the pan
Ensure the pan is preheated adequately before adding food. Use a small amount of cooking oil or butter. Avoid using metal utensils that can damage the coating. If the issue persists, the non-stick coating may be degraded and require replacement.
Uneven cooking
Verify the pan is centered on the stovetop burner. Ensure the burner size is appropriate for the pan's diameter. Cast aluminum generally provides even heat, so check for any debris on the stovetop or pan base.
Stains on the non-stick surface
Light staining can sometimes occur with certain foods. Try cleaning with a paste of baking soda and water, gently scrubbing with a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Pan feels lighter than expected
Cast aluminum is durable but not the heaviest material. If the pan feels unusually light or warped, inspect it for damage. However, most pans in this material offer a good balance of weight and performance.
