It works very well for french toast because that's what I bought it for.  Cleans extremely easily with just a sponge.  It is my favorite grill pan, and I use it all the time.  10/15 I am changing my review.  This pan was great for a few months, but now it gets a black coating every time I use it which I cannot get off.  Going to see if it has any kind of warranty.  Probably just need to throw it away.
