First one of these that we got was a gift just shy of 5 years ago. Without any sarcasm, my family and I have cooked in it almost every single day since we got it. After FIVE years of constant, daily use, I finally bought a replacement (only because, on more than one occasion, the pan got overheated and started to curve in the middle a bit). This is our go-to pan for pretty much every dinner we make. The value for the price is outstanding. The pan is durable, easy to clean, and will fit most dishes made for 5+ people. Highly recommend.
