I’m ready to throw away all my other pans! This is such a joy to cook with. I don’t have to worry about anything sticking! Char removes with a swipe of a paper towel. It gives it a nice crisp and doesn’t burn. I love cooking without added oils. This pan is heavy duty. You can feel the quality. The handle stays cool. Very even cook on my gas stove. I hand wash my pan- though it’s dishwasher safe. I am in love with ceramic pans! I have never tried one and am switching to this brand!
