Bought this product when I saw it on the infomercial without hesitation because I was so tired of buying stuff that they say won't stick and then it wears out in a month and I'm afraid I'm eating the nonstick in my food. This doesn't come apart it Heats evenly and I'm not used to that I have to turn the temperature down a little bit to make sure I don't burn my food cuz I'm not used to it cooking that well. But it works and that's important. Do you have to look at it really well when I wash by hand to make sure that I get everything. Most important watch your temperature you don't need as much heat as you're used to.
