The Padova Light Blue Ceramic Nonstick 8" and 10" Frypan set are  wonderful pans! Very good quality and very durable. It is safe to use a metal utensils with them. There's nothing worse than forgetting to use plastic and scratching a pan. But these you do not have to worry about that. They're non-stick,  dishwasher and oven safe. One of the features is the hard dash anodized body That distributes your heat evenly when you're cooking. The handles are coated and riveted stainless steel. Very well made. They're also very nice looking pans and compliment your kitchen decor. Mine are holding up wonderfully and I highly recommend them. I do a lot of cooking. I think the quality of these pans are excellent.
