I am a very active home cook and have really enjoyed using these pans. My first impression was that they felt so light I didn't know how'd they'd hold up but right away I was impressed with the non stick power! I have made pan seared fish, bacon, eggs and everything has cooked so evenly and nothing sticks. They are also very easy to keep clean. My only complaint is, after using the larger pan only 3 times, and after always hand washing the pan I noticed somehow it had gotten a scratch. That made me realize they aren't as durable as I'd prefer but I absolutely love the non stick surface.
