This is hands down one of my favorite skillets! I have used my share of non stick skillets that still stick or get scratched really easy. The circulon skillet is the best and i would definitely buy. I am actually looking at purchasing many more. I haven't heard of this brand before but I'm glad i know about it now. My only flaw with this pan is the outside did scratch easily. It's not a big deal for me because it's the bottom side of the skillet but it did scratch after only a few uses. I will still tell everyone i know to buy this skillet it's the best.
