I was very exited to receive this pan. It look very stylish and well made. The thermo smart indicator its a great addition to this pan. I've tried making an fried egg in it. I've added a bit of oil, but unfortunately the egg has stick to the pan and it was quiet difficult to wash it afterwards. I thought I will try something else. I tried pancakes. This was a different story to the eggs. I've fried the pancakes without any oil whatsoever. It didn't stick. The pancakes turn out lovely. I am really pleased with the pan and hopefully will last me a long time.
