These pans are all you can ask for

Very well made pans, food doesn’t stick even with the stainless steel one if you use it properly. Things come right off when you clean, the price is reasonable considering its quality.

Best skillet I’ve ever owned.

Almost had it 2 years now. Perfectly even heat distribution (I have a gas stove so can’t speak for electric). Clean it with anything you want. Use any utensils you want. Thick heavy duty doesn’t warp as long as you don’t overheat it. As long as I don’t do something stupid this pan will last my lifetime. Love this pan. I’ll be buying some others that match.

I have always loved Kitchenaid

What really sold me on this pan is two-fold. First, I'm not using teflon or other non-stick coatings anymore since I read a report on the "leach" from the coating. I grew up with stainless steel, anyway, so I'm just returning to what I know. I also have experience with this particular pan at my daughter's house. I always wanted to get one, but I knew it only came in sets. But since I discarded all my other cookware, I bought the set and my pan came with it! I'm so pleased with its performance. After you learn to turn the heat down, you achieve better results. Truly the heat distribution on this pan is excellent. You do use a little more oil, but not really much, and the results are much more healthy, overall. I'd rather have a bit more olive oil in my system than chemicals from the coatings, wouldnt' you?

Really happy with this pan.

I cook a lot. I've owned a lot of non stick pans... From Calphalon to a few cheaper brands. Of all the non sticks that I've owned, this is hands down my favorite pan.The build quality is top tier. You can tell just picking the thing up that it's premium. The handle is narrow and feels great in your hand.Cooking with the thing is as good as a non stick experience is going to be.The only thing... I wish they sold it in a 10 inch or 12 inch size.I do also own a 12 inch 5 ply stainless steel pan from this same set, and that pan is also phenomenal as stainless steel pans go. Particularly from a value perspective. Some 5 ply stainless steel pans are REALLY EXPENSIVE.Anyways, I love this pan. Easy to clean. Easy to use. Gorgeous. No reason not to add to your cart right now.

Sturdy and EASY to clean...

Great non stick surface, and not to heavy to handle, but the designer could have made a larger handle with better control shape. too small and could have been wood or heaat resistant plastic or whatever..........Knowing this about the handle, I would have bought another brand, but it works great so live and learn.

Make sure to read the instructions to take good care of it

Always use it once the pan is at high temperature, make sure to clean it as indicate it in the instructions and it would last forever.
