This little non-stick skillet releases food like a dream! I had been using my mother’s 8” nonstick Calphalon skillet, but it was probably 25 YO, approx, & was losing its coating. So great to have it back! The skillet is significantly lighter and handle style is very different, with a cushion-y grip. Hopefully that’s good in terms of durability through the years. I have to admit I’m wary that I bought a lighter, cheaper skillet — which I couldn’t tell from the website— so I shall see. So far so good!
