These are great for non-stick cooking. I use the smaller one for eggs, bacon and sandwiches and nothing burns or sticks. I had been using a copper fry pan but everything burned so quickly it was awful. This one heats more normally and I’ve had no issues with food sticking or burning. The larger one is the perfect size for sautéing because it’s really deep. Much deeper than any large fry pan I’ve had. I’ve made veggies and chicken and a couple other dinner meals and I love it! No issues at all and they aren’t as heavy as they look! They cleaned up beautifully with a brush and a drop of Dawn. Perfect!
