I had 2 pans that were stuck together. After trying everything I've heard of, I finally sprayed WD-40 into the sides of bottom pan, put them in freezer over-night, dropped them on concrete this morning, and VOILA! I have 2 pans again.
Wahoo! I had earlier tried putting ice in the top one and putting them on the stove on low, but it didn't work. So glad I have my favorite pans back again.

An air compressor will work as well. It will get 2 buckets unstuck as well.
Using either heat or cold on both pans is a total waste of time.
To separate them use the heat = expand/cold = contract theory in simple physics.
I tried the boiling water and ice trick with no result until I tapped the stuck metal lid with the handle of a heavy knife about 4 times. Yea!
Earlier today I read in this section about how to get the pots separated and it worked quickly. Put about a handful of ice cubes in the pot, wait a minutes or two, turn the pot handles in opposite directions and they separate easily.
Hi , I had a dilemma, a plate got stuck in a glass bowl , I tried for about 4 days , freezing water in the top plate and then sitting it in a bowl of hot water, it worked eventually, I also tried the cooking oil method , never give up ....
make sure u emerge the bowl in hot water , right up to the point where the two bowls are joined, the top plate has to be full of ice , u will hear crackling , tip it over and maybe knock gently with a wooden spoon, it will fall out ....
Also I don't know if everyone already knows this tip glass cookwate. You know how after using your glass baking dishes for a while the edges get the burnt look. Well, if you take Easy Off Oven Cleaner, spray the pan. I mean spray a lot evenly and then put the glass baking sheet in a plastic shopping bag.
