I have used my new Circulon pans multiple times now and I absolutely love them. The first night I kept it simple and made pan seared pork chops and sauteed green beans and mushrooms. First thing I notice, way less oil required- second my handle stayed cool the whole way through and third- great sear on my chops without any hassle- pan held an even temp the whole time! Since that first use I have made eggs and bacon and mozzarella stuffed pesto chicken with sauteed zuchinni noodles as well and every time the pan holds even temperature, handle stays cool, and NOTHING STICKS! The directions say dishwasher safe but I don't put pans in the dishwasher I just hand wash and it's been a breeze. Pans are heavy duty, quality made, do not scorch with high heat. All around beautiful and great quality cookware! Now I have to replace ALL my cookware with this line, it is just that great! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
