Happy Call Korean Frying Pan

[Jade]

I make sure my pan is cooled down first before putting in running water to wash with soap and soft sponge. However, immediately after cooking, as the pan is still hot, I will pour hot water into it to soak it for a while, pour away the water, then wipe it clean first (soaking it a while with hot water is to make it easier to clean and less damage to the pan since whatever left in the pan after cooking will be softer and easier to come off when soaked). Cooling off the pan before subjecting to cold tap water wash, in my opinion, will help to maintain the pan better instead of subjecting it to cold tap water when the pan is still very hot.

Hi AlexYong,


saw your fake happycall blog...
the picture of the box that you took, is it not supposed to have the details or supposed to, to be authentic?

my box looks like yours, but the weight is 1.6kg, the vent is not oval... sort of rectangular but well aligned, the mould line is ok, however the colour at the hinges is also \"blackish\" like your picture, but I thought its ok since at hinge maybe normal?

haven't used yet... now a bit worried

anybody's happycall hinges also \"blackish\"?

i bought mine from 247mall ... the first lady to bring in Happycall from SMH...
anybody else bought from her?

tks in advance!

Yup, the box is dubious... So far I've seen mostdo u mean happy call basic?
Does it have the cardbox with hologram wrapped around the pan?
Does the sticker inside the pan has an \"R\" for \"registered\" after the word \"happy call\"?
How about handle to pan? - curve or straight?

Where is 247mall?
247mall.com.sg? ~ been under maintenance for a while it seems.
What is SMH?

Cheers,
Alex.Y

Hi all, i am new to this thread. Was facsinated by what Happycall pan can do. However, i am confused after reading so many posts, can anyone advise me :

1. Which are authetic sellers at Gmarket?
2. I saw there are 4 types of pans - er, i dont really know how to cook very well, let’s say for just a typical 3 person eating of fish, porkchop etc, which pan type would you suggest that i buy?

Many many thanks in advance!

Hi AlexYong,


yup, got the basic pan...
why is the box dubious? has all the stamps etc right?
No cardboard/paper around pan...
The sticker has the \"R\"...
The handle at the pan part is straight, like in your photo, but the words
are printed further away from handle, not like yours just at the handle ...

Actually mine has some but not all characteristics of authentic so that's why worried, but not as outrightly fakelooking as your pan photos...
yes its 247mall.com.sg, from the singapore motherhood forum...

sigh to use or not?? got 2 some more ...

The pan i have bought disappointed me on the following:


i) The coating near the \"U\" shape vent came off juz after a week's use, exposing the inner red coat.

ii) Attempts to get the seller to exchange but no avail (after several emails) as I have to send my old pan back to them first before I can get my new pan, n international postage has to be paid by me first (I dun feel comfortable with tis arrangement as there's no one to guarantee a new pan n refund of postage back to me).
Prior to that, the seller even insisted that their pans does not have such problems before though i have forwarded a photo as proof n they even told me that the pan has to be washed with a soft sponge.

I have given up on getting a exchange or refund from the seller as my last request for refund was counter back by them as they requested me to get back to SG gmarket headquarters.

Hi kids_r_innocent,
Can you take a pic of the paint coming off? I bought from the same seller as you and now am concern after seeing your post. Are you still using the pan?

I have a pic that i took, and sent to the seller. But i do not know how to upload here though.

I have been using the pan till now coz its my first and only pan but will be getting another pan from other brand soon to replace this (was holding to the hope of exchange hence didnt get a new one till now).

Is the middle u-shaped vent which lets out the steam when cooking or at the catchment area?

[kids_r_innocent]

Yup, the coating came out at the top of the u shape vent. It was only after one week’s use. The pan also came with all the "authentic" points that were mentioned earlier.
