This is a great pan. I am very happy with it. It is wonderfully nonstick. You have to be very careful how you cook with it though. Cast iron needs to be heated slowly and kept at lower temperatures. The first time I used this pan I started burning a little bit. But once I was done cooking I put in a bit of soapy hot water and then about 5 minutes later when I ran the sponge in the pan it all lifted off like magic. Highly recommend this pan.
