I’ve been using this frying pan for the past couple of weeks to make everything from grilled cheese sandwiches to chicken and I’ve been pleased with its performance. Before using it, I washed it in the dishwasher and it washed well. The foods I prepared in it cooked up quickly and evenly, with very minimal sticking/residue when I made the chicken. The small amount that did stick washed away easily after soaking in the sink and then going into the dishwasher. I used a stainless steel spoon to stir the chicken and it didn’t cause any damage to the coating. I appreciate that it is metal utensil safe. This is a high quality frying pan that I would definitely recommend to others
