I'm not a big fan of non stick pans due to bad experiences in the past but finally broke down and got this one because of the lifetime warranty and the need for something that can handle certain frying tasks without instigating a horrific cleanup. I have to say the pictures don't do it justice: this thing is BIG and made very well. The handle is hollow but sealed and the pan is very 'meaty' and heavy but not overly so. After using it a few times already I had discovered that this thing is a real jewel and heats evenly without the need for excessive temperatures. Overall? HIGHLY recommended.Some of these are pretty common knowledge but here are a few pointers to keep in mind when you own a pan like this:
Don't use metallic utensils. (Use wood, nylon or high temperature plastic)
Don't preheat before use.
Don't use at any temperature over medium. (Trust me, you won't need to)
Don't run through the dishwasher. (Even if the instructions say otherwise)
Don't allow water to stand in the pan for any length of time when not in use.
Don't wash when it's hot. Just use a paper towel to wipe clean and wash later when things cool off.
Don't stack your non stick pans, especially this one being the size it is. These things tend to peal first from the upper rim and if you stack these you are asking for it.
This may seem like a lot but it's nothing when you consider the pain and suffering involved with cleaning up stainless steel frying pans after a bad frying experience.
Hope this helps and happy cooking!
