Non-stick lining
Durability score
This test is conducted on non-stick pans only – the rest automatically receive 100% for this test. A section of the pan is scrubbed 10,000 times by a mechanical arm with a Scotch-Brite scourer attached under a 10kg weight to assess the resilience of the non-stick coating.

Dishwasher safe
Whether the frypan can be put in the dishwasher. Handwashing is generally recommended for most products.
Sides (angled, curved, straight)
Curved sides makes tossing, sliding, flipping or lifting food easier due to the slant in the sides. A straight-sided frypan is good for stirring foods or when making sauces as the contents are less likely to spill out.
Flatness of base when heated
Generally, a pan that is slightly concave (like a wine bottle base) will flatten on heating as it expands. If your pan turns concave on heating, you may find the food runs to the sides of the pan. The majority of the pans we've tested have a concave base when heated.

Country of origin
Availability
A Similar model is identical in most aspects except for a few. This means that a majority of its test results are identical so you can reasonably expect to get the same results from the model we tested, but for those aspects which aren't identical, we'll note these as "Not Tested" in the Compare tables.
A Tested model refers to a model that is still current and available in the Australian market. You should be able to order this model through your local retailer, or find it online.
These models can't be found in retailers or online or are no longer manufactured. You may still find them on second-hand websites, or in second-hand dealers. Test methods may change over time, so criteria which can't be directly compared will contain an N/A.
An Identical model is exactly that. Performance characteristics will be identical and the only difference will be something trivial such as colour, which won't have an impact on performance.
These are models we haven't yet tested but that are available.
