My MUJI nonstick pan after a month: light to handle, quick to heat

Reviewed: MUJI Nonstick frying pan, metal-handle China model, size and SKU unspecifiedRegional reference: MUJI Ceramic Coated Frying Pan MC02Y25A 10.2-inch (US)

I used my MUJI nonstick pan almost daily for a month. It felt light, heated quickly, and I noticed no peeling or sticking while using a wooden spatula.

A black nonstick frying pan is held upright by its metal handle over a black glass cooktop; a small covered container sits on the counter to the left.

I used this pan almost every day for a month, either to fry eggs or cook other dishes. I used it more often than I expected.

Here are the things I’m most pleased with so far

First, it really is light. With some pans I’ve used before, washing and lifting them felt tiring. I can hold this one comfortably in one hand.

Second, it heats up quickly. Making breakfast in the morning takes less time because I don’t have to wait long, and it works well for frying eggs and cooking other dishes.

And then there’s the coating, which everyone is most concerned about. I use a wooden spatula, and so far I haven’t noticed any coating coming off or food sticking. It’s still in about the same condition as when I bought it.

Overall, I’m very happy with this pan. It has already become one of the pans I use most often in my kitchen.

Care for the US ceramic-coated model

For the US MUJI MC02Y25A, the material specification is useful when comparing pans: it combines stainless-steel inner and outer shells with an aluminium core and a sol-gel ceramic cooking surface. The owner’s one-month account does not identify the same construction.

MUJI advises wooden or plastic utensils without sharp edges for the US MC02Y25A, along with hand washing and no abrasive cleaners. These are practical care requirements to consider alongside the owner’s preference for a wooden spatula; the post does not establish that the utensil caused the reported coating condition.
