This cult favorite nonstick pan just might become your most-reached-for piece of cooking equipment. (Amazon)(Amazon)
Watching diner cooks flip eggs and pancakes with an effortless flick of the wrist has to be one of the most satisfying restaurant experiences. But making breakfast at home can be one of the most tedious if you don't have a slick skillet that'll keep food from sticking. That's why one Yahoo Life shopping editor — who happens to be an alum of the French Culinary Institute — went in search of the best nonstick pans. Which one took the gold? That would be the Tramontina Professional Nonstick Fry Pan, which happens to be marked down big-time at Amazon. Who doesn't love a sizzlin' sale?
Yard in need of some heavy-duty pruning? This small but mighty chainsaw is powerful enough to take down tree branches, yet weighs under 2.5 pounds. Plus, this top-seller is cordless for even more convenience.
One Yahoo editor gave it a try, writing, "While testing the Saker, I first noticed that it was very easy to hold in one hand. I also appreciated the safety features, including a safety lock that must be pressed before the saw activates. This gave me some comfort that it wouldn't just 'go off' if I squeezed it too tight while walking between locations. It's also easier to use than something like pruning shears, which can be heavy and unwieldy and take much longer to get the same job done."

The fact that this No. 1 bestseller acts as both a blender and food processor is enough to catch our attention — but knowing it's currently down to its best price of the year? That puts it over the top.
With a 72-ounce blending pitcher and 8-cup food processor bowl, you'll be able to whip up frozen margaritas and salsa for a crowd. The 1500-watt motor also makes pulverizing everything from ice to frozen fruit a piece of cake.
An air fryer is just the ticket when you want a hot meal without turning on the oven. This top-rated model heats up quickly and holds up to 2.5 pounds of fries or 14 wings at a time. Plus, it can be used to dehydrate food, proof bread and even bake desserts. This price is one of the best we've seen it marked down to.

One Yahoo editor awarded this blade the title of best budget chef's knife after testing a slew of them. She says, "When I started culinary school, I was issued a curated set of knives and tools we would need to work with through our 600 hours of training in order to graduate. This Mercer Culinary chef's knife was the one we received that day and what we would use for 90% of our daily tasks. That should give you an idea of what this knife is capable of — and of its durability.
The Genesis may not be a flashy knife, but it is a real workhorse in the kitchen. This Western-style knife is forged from a single piece of high-carbon German steel and features a handle made from Santoprene (a rubbery material) that ensures a firm grip even in damp hands."
It only dropped lower in price once this year ... so chop chop!
Been in a bit of a slump (literally)? Having a supportive yet comfortable work chair can help improve your posture while relieving pressure. This one has a curved shape that's meant to conform to your back, while the base of the seat offers lumbar support to help take some pressure off. Hey, your job might cause a lot of stress, but your bum's resting place shouldn't!
Mesh backing allows for increased airflow and breathability for added comfort, and you'll be able to recline and rock back at a customized angle that feels good to you. Prefer to sit cross-legged? Just flip up the armrests so they're not in the way.
This top-tier convection oven is down to the best price we've seen in five years, so you'll want to grab it before it's toast. With nine cooking functions to choose from, you'll be able to do everything from roast a chicken to bake a pie.
It heats up in no time, so when you don't feel like waiting for your full-size oven to get to temperature, this appliance will do the trick. Plus, you can use it for heating up your Thanksgiving sides when the oven's full of turkey.
This versatile skillet ain't no flash in the pan — it's been a staple in one Yahoo Life editor's kitchen for years.
Why have a jumble of lids in your cabinets when this one can fit 10-, 11- and 12-inch pans? Its heat-resistant knob spares your hands from touching a hot surface and a steam vent helps release excess moisture.
"We have used it for different-sized fry pans," wrote a five-star reviewer. "It works well to keep the steam in the pan while giving visibility. The rubber edge provides a snug fit to various-sized pans."
Compared to many of the other pans that our editor tested (HexClad, Le Creuset, Made In), this one's an absolute steal at $30 (down from $45). In fact, it's the least expensive of the bunch, so the fact that it earned the top spot speaks volumes to how well it performed. This isn't the absolute lowest price we've seen it on sale for, but at nearly 40% off, it's still a stellar deal.
Yahoo Life shopping editor Lisa Schweitzer, who conducted the nonstick pan test, says, "I've been using a Tramontina nonstick pan for years. Cooking with this pan is a dream!" Among its many perks are its lightweight, 2-pound design, which 5-foot-tall Lisa says is "a huge plus when it comes to maneuverability," as well as the removable silicone grip on its handle, which will protect your hands while you cook.
Made of commercial-grade aluminum with a PFOA-free nonstick coating, you can use this pan on glass, electric and ceramic glass stovetops, plus it's safe to put in the oven (at 400°F with the silicone handle grip and 500°F without). That means you can get a nice sear on your steak and then finish it in the oven to cook it to your liking. It's also dishwasher-safe, but Lisa says, "Cleanup is a breeze and only requires a few swipes with a soapy sponge, even around the rivets that secure the handle."
You won't need to douse the pan in butter to keep things from sticking, either; Lisa says a small "slick of oil" will do. And if you're cooking fish and other proteins? "I had no problems searing skin-on salmon filets or releasing chicken breasts from the surface," she reports. "It performed as well or better than all the other pans I tested, crisping salmon skin to brown ASMR perfection and cooking golden pancakes without hot spots."
Lisa's in good company; over 18,000 Amazon customers are smitten with the Tramontina nonstick pan too.
"This is the best nonstick pan I’ve ever used," raved one convert. "It’s light and easy to maneuver on the stove. The silicone grip stays cool to the touch. Great for sautés!"
"Great pan so far, nothing sticks," agreed another. "I'm flipping omelets easily, made a fantastic burger last night with a perfect crust on it. Cooks evenly and has great balance. Another great thing is it's very easy to clean. No need to spend $100-plus on a frying pan when this one does an amazing job for under 30 bucks. Couldn't be happier."
"This is our second one," shared a repeat buyer (and regretful host). "The first lasted five years and would have lasted longer if house guests hadn’t used tools and scrubbies that scratched it. This one will get locked up when guests are here. Great nonstick pan."
"The only thing I am not delighted with is the handle, which is quite long and heavier than any other frying pan I've used," wrote an otherwise happy shopper. "When I'm cooking food, it's not an issue, but if I place the pan on my (gas) stove without food, it can wobble because of the handle. Do I like this pan? Yes, a lot. Would I buy it again? Yes, absolutely."
"This one seems well made," said a final fan. "I just wish they made clear glass lids for them. I kept the lid off my old 10-inch skillet, but it doesn't fit well. Sometimes, when cooking eggs, I like to steam them a little bit. But without a lid that doesn't seal, you can't. Other than that, I love the skillet." (Psst: Keep scrolling for a brilliant solution.)
Put a lid on it with this clever contraption.
