Ninja ZEROSTICK Ceramic Pro 24 cm Frying Pan – Black CW30024UK

Most ceramic pans fail not because the coating is weak at first, but because it degrades rapidly under high heat — hairline scratches trap grease, and within months you're back to sticking eggs. Ninja's ZEROSTICK Ceramic Pro addresses this with a scratch-resistant ceramic surface rated to 285°C, which means it can handle a proper sear without the coating breaking down the way cheaper ceramic options tend to when pushed past medium heat. The 100% recycled aluminium body also distributes heat more evenly than thin-gauge pans at this price point, reducing the hot spots that scorch protein around the edges while leaving the centre underdone.

Who Is This For?

This pan suits someone who cooks daily, wants to avoid PTFE-based non-stick for health or environmental reasons, and is frustrated by ceramic pans that perform well for six months then become a liability. It's also a reasonable upgrade for anyone currently using a supermarket own-brand ceramic that warps on an induction hob. If you cook exclusively on gas at low temperatures and rarely push a pan hard, an honest £15 ceramic from a discount retailer will likely serve you just as well for the same lifespan.

What Buyers Say

Owners of the broader ZEROSTICK Ceramic Pro range consistently praise the weight balance and the confident release on eggs and fish without oil — tasks that expose weaker coatings immediately. The most repeated complaint is that the coating, while more durable than budget alternatives, still requires hand-washing to maintain longevity despite the dishwasher-safe claim, which some buyers feel contradicts the marketing. A few users on larger sizes have noted slight handle warmth on extended hob use, though the 24 cm format is less susceptible to this.

The Deal

At £36.99, down from £54.99, this is a 33% saving worth taking seriously — though because this product is newly tracked on our site, we have no price history to confirm how long it has sat at £54.99 or whether this discount is genuinely seasonal. We'd suggest checking our best Ninja deals and best cookware deals pages to see if comparable pans offer better verified value right now. At sub-£40 for a reputable ceramic with this spec, it's worth watching — but hold off if you need certainty that this is a true historic low.
