I was so impressed with the look and feel of the Anolon Nouvelle Copper Stainless Steel 12-Inch Covered French Skillet when I received it! I love the generous size, it makes it easy to prepare family sized portions. It has great heat distribution coming from the combination layered bottom.  The stainless steel and copper along with the riveted handles add a nice sophisticated look to your kitchen. Great quality and Lifetime Warranty! It is a plus to have this skillet be dishwasher, oven and broiler safe. Another plus is it can be used for induction cooking.  I cannot wait to start investing in the rest of the Anolon Noveau Copper and Stainless Steel cookware.
