The Always Pan from Our Place has been featured everywhere from the New York Times to Bon Appetit to Vogue to your favorite blogger's Instagram feed. This multi-purpose cooking pan is advertised to replace 8 pieces of cookware:
Frypan
Sauté pan
Steamer
Skillet
Saucier (a fancy term for a saucepan that is rounded and bowl-shaped, ideal for the preparation of sauces and creamy foods)
Saucepan
Non-stick pan
Spatula
Spoon rest
Outside of replacing multiple items in my relatively small New York City apartment, this pan from Our Place is ALSO non-stick and non-toxic. The Always Pan's ceramic coating is made without potentially toxic materials like PFOAs, PTFEs, other PFAs, lead, cadmium, toxic metals, and nanoparticles.
I have made my signature one-pot shrimp pasta (click here for the recipe) in this pan, boiled and fried dumpling, steamed broccoli, fried chicken, and made the perfect spaghetti sauce. The best part of this pan is how evenly it cooks and how EASILY the pan cleans out. Even the messiest aftermath of cooking is the simplest job, and I mean it that the days of letting your pan soak are OVER. Each pan comes with a natural sponge that is non-abrasive and perfect for making sure the non-toxic ceramic coat last.
The Always Pan comes in 5 beautiful colors that will match any kitchen décor, and I opted for the Spice and Sage (yes, have two pans - mind ya business). After being gifted the Spice pan by the incredible Our Place team, I quickly fell in love and used my own hard-earned money to purchase the Sage color. The great thing about this pan is it makes cooking fun and easy, and it beautiful to take to the stove to the table to serve out of. I will mention that this pain is NOT oven-safe and the recommended max temperature is low to medium-low heat.
Here are some specs for this pan:
10" diameter
2.7" tall
Hold up to 2.6 quarts
Always Pan weighs 3 pounds and the lid weighs 1 pound.
We have talked enough about the Always Pan's design and functionality; let me explain why this is a great company to back because of the impact they make. Our Place's values include ethical labor, sharing real stories, and responsible materials. This direct to consumer company is based in Los Angeles and has partnered with local organizations to provide access to healthy and fresh food to those who need it the most.
Outside of the top-selling Always Pan, Our Place also offers hand-blown glass cups and hand-painted porcelain plates and bowls. These each come in three colors to compliment your pan.

I was gifted one pan from Our Place but the additional pan, bowls, cups, and plates were purchased by myself. Although gifted one pan reviews are my own.
