Cuisinart never let's me down.  Having enjoyed flawless service with a toaster for many years, I was not at all surprised that my new skillet was equally exceptional.  After passing the scrambled egg test - absolutely no sticking and easy to clean - I knew I'd found the perfect pan.  It heats quickly, has just the right heft, maintains it's sparkle with minimal washing, and even works as well as a wok for stir frying.
