I’ve been in the cooking game a long time. I’ve used cast iron a lot, and I honestly have never really liked it. This pan though takes the cake. Going through all the time honored traditions of seasoning your pan, and the cleaning methods you go through so that you don’t ruin the seasoning... this pan came rusty. After I got off the rust, seasoned it, and restored it, my first meal stuck. I lightly rinsed it out with a little soap 
and a paper towel. I dried it and the next morning the pan was completely covered in rust. I haven’t had this issue with other cast pans. This is junk.
