This skillet is very large and sturdy. You can make meals on top of the stove, or in the oven to perfection. I use this everyday when I cook. I have not noticed and food sticking to this pan,  and it’s so easy to clean up. I like that it has a handle on the side to help move the man easily. I have only used soap and water on the skillet, but I have washed the lid in the dishwasher. It cooked bacon evenly, you can cook large quantities in this skillet and I love that. I made baked spaghetti in the oven using this pan, and it turned out perfect.
