Our Place - Always Pan
The Our Place Always Pan is a self-proclaimed do-it-all wonder pan that is designed to take the place of 8 different pieces of cookware. This non-toxic, non-stick pan quickly gained cult status on Instagram and became a best seller but is it worth all of the hype?
We cook quite a bit and I was in the market for a new non-stick pan. I had been eyeing the Always pan but with a price tag of $145.00 I was hesitant on pulling the trigger.
I got my wish and received the Always pan this Christmas. Here are my first impressions; sleek and functional design, manageable weight, and the wooden spatula and steamer basket are included with the pan. It even comes with a cleaning sponge so that you clean it responsibly.
In the short time I have had this pan I have cooked with it quite a bit, it cooks the food evenly and the built-in spatula rest is another handy feature. The pan is also easy to clean. My mother also has been using this pan for over a year now and loves it.
Is this pan a game changer? The short answer is no, and while this pan is attractive and it’s size and design allows for cooking many different meals, it is still at its core a non-stick pan.
There are limitations to cooking with non stick pans and knowing them will save you a lot of headaches. For more info on when to use non-stick pans check out When to Use Nonstick and Stainless Steel Pans in the Kitchen

Caraway - Sauté Pan
The Caraway non-toxic ceramic Sauté Pan is a great option to cook healthy meals without harmful chemicals. There are also 6 color options to add a unique pop of color to your kitchen.
With a price tag of $135 I debated on making this purchase, but felt it would be an investment and with proper care would last me years. In addition there are other pieces in the set that I could gradually add.
Unlike Lauren I am NOT much of a cook, so wanted something that was foolproof and easy to use and maintain. It cooks evenly and cleaning it is a breeze. I do think the pan is heavier than others, so it can be difficult to hold with one hand to empty.
