I'm already an absolute Rachael Ray fan, but these skillets set the bar pretty high. They are easy to cook with and the clean is up is a breeze. I make chicken masalas my first time using the 11.75 inch pan and I must say, I was impressed! They are my favorite skillets now. I highly recommend trying them out. I feel like they are going to last a very long time as well. They definitely beat the skillets I previously used and will be replacing them from here on out. The teal handles match my kitchen nicely.
