The Original Green Pan 12 inch has quickly became our go to frypan.  The frypan heats quickly and evenly with the heavier gauge and anodized structure.  The directions advise to use a lower heat and less oil for the maximum performance.  The lower heat prevents the food or oils being burnt onto the frypan.  Green Pan uses Thermolon Healthy Ceramic Nonstick coating which prevents anything sticking and makes clean up easy.  Green Pan states this frypan is metal utensils safe however I still use silicone utensils to lengthen the frypan life. It is rated for oven use up to 600 degrees with the stainless steel  handle and is also dishwasher safe. I do wish the frypan was a little deeper in design but overall it is a smart buy.
