Ozeri - Green Earth Pan 12"

Hello Everyone! I hope your day has been full of laughter and smiles so far. Today, I want to talk to you about another wonderful product from Ozeri. If you weren't here for the last review I did by them, then let me catch you up by telling you that they make really well-made and quality products. They make a little bit of everything, and my last review was on a Tower Fan. However, today we will be talking about the 12" Green Earth Pan.

Who is Ozeri?

From their site:

"Ozeri is a specialty manufacturer of digital lifestyle products for the modern home. Ozeri began as a supplier to the destination club market. This market spans vacation residences in the destination club industry, fractional residences, timeshares, and condo hotel apartments.

Ozeri products are found in vacation residences that span the globe, from majestic European estates, luxurious desert spa resorts, and private tropical resorts. Ozeri products are of a pedigree for ultra-luxury markets we serve, where five-star residences are matched with the finest kitchen, bath, entertainment, and personal amenities. We incorporate award-winning designs, innovative materials, and durable construction for long product satisfaction.

Ozeri is also an emerging brand in the consumer marketplace. Ozeri products are made available to the consumer through an efficient business model. Unlike competitive brands, with Ozeri products the final price borne by the consumer is not burdened by advertising, marketing and other traditional costs that support brand equity. The Ozeri brand is instead built on the relationships formed by touch-points that countless guests have with our products at vacation residences around the world."

I really like that they brought the top luxury products to the mainstream everyday consumer. You still get that luxury product without the luxury price, making each product from Ozeri completely affordable.

The first thing I noticed when I received the Ozeri 12" Pan was the Ozeri Pan Protector. I have never had a pan protector. Now that I do, I am starting to wonder if I should of got them for my other pans. I think it's a wonderful idea, and love how it protects the surface from other pans. Not only that, but it works and does just that.

The next thing to did after looking at the contents of the pan was to test it out. It recommended that for the first time you season (lightly coat) your pan with a tiny amount of oil. This is what I am guessing is to protect the pan. It also says non stick sprays are NOT recommended as they may contain additives and tend to release too much oil. 

Back to what I was saying. So, I coated the pan lightly with oil and then thought to myself - What is the one thing that drives me nuts that sticks all the time in my old pans? EGGS!

I tried cooking scrambled eggs as well as a sunny side up egg (which actually just turned into a regular fried egg since I broke the yoke). I was really impressed! Not one time did it stick, and my food actually looked as good as it tasted. 

My favorite part was the clean-up. It was such a breeze to do! I could have literally shook the crumbs off the pan, and wiped it off with a paper towel. For the first time, I actually have a non-stick pan that is really non-stick! I would highly recommend this pan if you are in search of good solid non-stick pan.

To purchase the Ozeri - 12" Green Earth Pan you can get it right now on Amazon for $30 by going here: BUY Ozeri 12" Pan. They also have an 8 inch and 12 inch available for purchase as well.

My Thoughts

I think the BakeItFun mat is a wonderful product. I end up making cookies with the mat for the first time as seen in the picture.

The first time I used it I soaked it in warm soapy water, and put cooking oil on it. This is only for the 1st time, which helps preserve the mat. After the 1st time you don't have to do it again.

Not one time did I have to pull or scrap the mat. As soon as I went to get the cookies off the mat they came right up. Not only that they pieces that got a little burnt on the side didn't stick either. Now, obviously you want to wash the mat after using it. However, after taking the cookies off the mat, all I had to do was shake the crumbs off and it was CLEAN! 

I love that it has a built on ruler as well as a place to put each of the items you are cooking. They have measured it so that it is the perfect width each time. Considering its only $11.67 and you can use it up to 10 years, I would say this is a STEAL! It not only makes baking easy, but it makes it fun. I actually can say I honestly enjoy baking now. The BakeItFun Mat went above and beyond.
