Reviews mention

  • Elegant colors, modern aesthetics
  • Thoughtful spoon-rest integration
  • Versatile depth and shape
  • Easy, quick nonstick cleanup
  • Fragile nonstick coating longevity
  • Exterior staining and chipping
  • Heavy, awkward handling
  • Limited high-heat tolerance

Our Place earns polarized reviews: the cookware enchants with elegant colors, thoughtful design (spoon rest, straining lid, steamer inserts), easy cleanup, and genuine versatility for everyday, low-to-medium-heat cooking—yet durability issues recur. Reviews of Our Place repeatedly flag fragile nonstick that degrades within months, staining/chipping exteriors, heavy weight, and no oven use on earlier pans; dishware and glasses draw steadier praise for stacking and feel. Buyers who prize aesthetics and gentle, simple cooking fare well; avid, high‑heat cooks should look elsewhere.

  • This is my favorite pan ever! I cook a lot and haven't cooked the same thing twice in nearly 4 years. I find myself reaching for this pot every single time that I cook. It's super easy to clean and looks adorable!

    Feedback

    I wish the wooden spatulas could be swapped with other types of utensils, such as spoons. It's probably the only part of the pan I don't use more than once every few weeks.

  • Been following the brand for a while now - always loved the aesthetic. Purchased the pot, pan and the air fryer. I love using them and how they look in my kitchen :)

  • I dislike the pan. It’s meant for people who lightly heat food or simmer liquids. The customer service is great and offers to replace but you can’t replace a fundamentally broken product.

  • We love ours, and everyone we've gifted to has loved theirs, too! The colors make everything 1000x better.

  • Just like everyone else, I love their branding and aesthetic. I tried the pan and find that it couldn't deliver in so many areas that are essential to my cookings.

  • I LOVE my Always pan and pot! Colors: gorgeous. Non-stick abilities: flawless. Easy to clean: check. If it wouldn't be hoarding, I'd buy one in every color.

  • Our Place is another Instagram/TikTok brand that is all over the platform, making it seem like THE pan. While the pan works ok, its nonstick isn't the highest quality and won't last as long as some other brands like Scanpan that are similarly priced.

  • The ONLY pan you need! It has everything you ever wanted in a pan. I love everything about my pan. Only medium/low heat for this pan!

  • Definitely worse the price and the experience for not good cooker as I am! Improving my skills thanks to their products. The website is very user-friendly and the communication received by the brand as well. Add to your order the bamboo steamer and egg poacher! :) bamboo steamer is a game changer timewise - cooked a salmon in 8 minutes - fat-free - no smells in the apartment, very easy to clean. Bowls are cute and very convenient to eat on it I love also how culture-inclusive they are in their newsletter - pushing all communities and traditions to highlight their products

  • My Always Pan looks so pretty in my kitchen. I use the pan nearly everyday it is perfect for most of the food I cook. The metal steam tray is awesome along with the spot to hold the wooden spoon. However, the cookware pricey.

  • love the concept of being able to use only one pan, but pan got sticky after a year of usage. though it was from a lot of usage.

  • Beautiful pan… that didn’t take me long to destroy. Made for low-medium heat, I ruined mine by frying on too high. Really looks great sitting on the stove, heavy and high quality, but overpriced

    Feedback

    -zero customer service. I messaged numerous times, no response - $$$$ - requires more TLC than I want to give for this price point

  • I've had my Our Place plan for a year now and I honestly don't feel like it's worth the hype. We've followed the care directions VERY carefully and within 6 months our pan was no longer non-stick. It looks beautiful living on the stovetop but feels like more of a hassle than it's worth... we always have to use baking soda to get it clean! We do however absolutely love the Our Place bowls we have. They are stackable and look gorgeous on the countertop - great for anyone with minimal kitchen storage like us!

  • I really want to love this brand. I think the founder and mission are incredible. But I've gone through four of these pans in just one year. My friends also purchased off of my recommendation and they are all on their second pan. It's great to have an "all-in-one" concept for NYC apartments. But it just feels super wasteful. I wish it was heavier, the Great Jones product weight makes the pan feel much more superior and a longer life span.

    Feedback

    Get a better Teflon alternative or make pan with an alternative material. If quality of Great Jones with the "all-in-one" concept of Our Place were a pan. I'll buy it!

  • We have the perfect pan. Love the design, packaging, general schtick. The steamer basket and wooden spoon are a nice touch.

    Feedback

    The non-stick bottom has gotten a little marked up and sometimes isn't the easiest to clean

  • I had an always pan for 3 years and although it's very pretty, I struggled with it a bit. It's probably mostly due to user error, but the nonstick coating pretty quickly stopped working for me and the inside of the pan started to turn dark and was difficult to keep clean. I did love the way it displayed on my stovetop & I've also purchased some Our Place dishes that I love. Going forward, I'd probably opt for less-expensive, very user-friendly nonstick pans, but I'll definitely keep an eye on other Our Place product releases!

  • At first I loved this brand. I bought three pans, turned my friends onto it, started gifting them. But, after a while, I really was not a fan anymore because the pan is way too delicate. You can't cook above low/medium heat without ruining the non-stick. It's too delicate for real cooking, gas stoves, etc.

  • Beautiful pieces of cookware that are modern in appearance. Versatile cookware. Unfortunately, my piece started having signs of wear and tear within a few months.
