I have recently tried the 12 inch fry pan by Circulon and it is amazing. The pan is scratch resistant and non stick. I used this pan to make several different items; I did seared chicken breast and crumbled ground beef and I had no sticking or scratching. The pan also cleans up very easily after using, I had no need to use a scratch pad of any kind. I used soap and water and a regular dish cloth for clean up. The pan cooked the food evenly. This pan is very durable. I look forward to trying more Circulon products in the future.
