This has become my new favorite pan to use. It is a solid, heavy based pan (which is great for cooking). The non-stick functionality of it is great, making it definitely easy to cook on, and more importantly, clean. The pan feels well built, and sturdy. I do not foresee it succumbing to the problems of some of the cheap pans I own (handles falling off, non-stick surface deteriorating). It heats nicely as well - from either gas or electric - evenly cooking all parts. I would highly recommend this pan to any and everyone!
