The online store DE BUYER is consistently praised for the excellent quality of its products, particularly their frying pans and sauté pans, which customers find durable and effective for cooking. Many highlight the quick response times and helpful nature of customer service, ensuring a seamless shopping experience. The speed of delivery is another strong point, with numerous reviews noting that orders arrive promptly and well-packaged.
Ordering things was OK. The major problem: I have not seen the return/refund options/policy. I have contacted your customer support and got a link to the page in French with instructions on how to fill out the form (French only) and that I need to send things back and that you refund only for unused items. This was not a problem in my case, but far away from my experience with Amazon. Where all this is much more convenient. On top of it, I need to pay transport costs on my own and still do not have any reply from your customer service :(

Hello, thank you for sharing your experience with our product. We're sorry to hear that your stove is showing signs of rust. As we told you, steel, in contact with moisture, can sometimes rust. This reaction does not affect the quality or durability of the stove, and the rust can be removed with a few simple methods.
To ensure optimal use of your stove, we invite you to contact us by e-mail at [email protected]; please include photos of the stove so that we can have an accurate visual and advise you as best we can on maintenance and use.
We thank you for your understanding and remain at your disposal for any further assistance.

Hello, I'm not particularly satisfied with the purchase of this frying pan, even though I know the brand to be a guarantee of quality. I bought an extreme shock frying pan for optimum durability, but after 4 uses I noticed scratches and also a tear in the coating. I'm very disappointed, especially as I was very careful to wash it by hand, store it in its cover and not to use stainless steel or other tools.

Lack of finish, sharp handle rings (had to be deburred to avoid any cuts), the edge of the 2 stoves had suffered knocks. Handles conduct too much heat, protection mandatory. Nothing to do with my old "Priority" series, which was top-notch. I would have preferred less luxurious packaging and better pans. Very poor value for money. Sincerely, Dominique MARTIN

The product was not available at the "reseller" location: the list is therefore not up to date. The delivery time was very long: even if you are warned, it's a shame not to plan for a peak in activity at a key sales period. And what can I say about the packaging? The cardboard box was more than excessively large, and the product packaging far too modest for its price (a simple net)!

Hello, I had ordered a 28 cm inner diameter pan and I received a 20 cm pan because there is an error in the dimensions of the description of the pans. I hope this error will be corrected. I was able to benefit from a commercial gesture and the error will be repaired. On the other hand, I received a steel crêpe pan and there's a part that won't stick, so the pancakes stick. It's impossible to get the non-stick effect on this pan, which I've prepared several times with oil as recommended on the instructions. On the other hand, steaks cook well in this crêpe pan! So I'm not satisfied with this steel product, which is supposedly anti-adhesive.

Dear Customer Service, I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction with a product I recently purchased from you.
