The pan is a superb build and exactly what I needed. It is easy to clean if you get burn marks which can normally happen. The trick is to:- 1) cook at the correct temperature (can be found using the water drop test). 2) clean the pan as quickly as possible. I use baking soda to clean any burn marks and it has been quite effective. The best thing about this stainless steel pan is that it is quite robust to use.
