This is a great pan for electric ranges, as it does a much better job of conducting heat than any other we own.  We've actually had to cut back on the temperature and pre-heat times because it works so well, so maybe it should also have an energy star rating. :-)  I haven't owned it long enough to comment on it's durability, but it appears to be a very well-made, durable item that should last for years.  Good job, Cuisinart!
