I love this pan! I have had this now for a year and it still looks great and works great. I bought this to replace 2 pans I had: a large Calphalon non-stick hard-anodized fry pan with cover and an Emile Henri brassier. I had both several years. But the brassier was expensive and it had developed a hair line fracture when I switched to an electric stove top. The Calphalon non-stick surface started to lift up, as with every other Calphalon non-stick I had tried. They never seem to last very long. My Scanpan is going strong a year later and still looks great. When frying, it browns nicely. I usually use a little oil, but just a bit. I love frittatas and they come out great in this pan. I used my brassier to bake fish and make stews. Again, this Scanpan works beautifully for both. It can go from the stove top to the oven. And cleaning is pretty easy, with a few caveats. Generally, the non-stick surface works well and even burnt sticky stuff comes off pretty easily. I love the outside which does not stain, unlike the Calphalon anodized surface. Only 2 things that take effort. The bottom of the pan is stainless and can get discolored over time. But an occasional scrub with a Bon Ami or Bar Keeper’s Friend brightens it right back up. What drives me crazy is getting the top clean and streak free. It always looks like it’s greasy. I found a wipe with white vinegar after washing let’s me polish it up shiny. Now you can put Scanpan in the dishwasher, but mine is really large so I just wash it. Considering what I paid for this pot compared to the 2 it replaced plus how well it has performed, I would give it 10 stars if I could.

Another excellent Scanpan addition. This one is significantly deeper than the regular fry pan series, so it is perfect when you are dealing with multiple ingredients and need room to stir without flinging everything out into the kitchen. Quick to heat up, even cooking, and fast clean up. Handles are nice too.

Some vendors deliver a loosely packaged item and it's pretty obvious that you've not received a new item. In this case, I am very happy to report that we received a new item. Also, I've been a fan of scanpan for well over a decade and wouldn't change it for other nonstick brands. No, these are not cheap dishes, but, they last four or more years without hassle.

Yes, this line of cookware is expensive. And yes, it is worth it. I have a gas stove, so I do not have a "must be level" issue. This pan just replaced 3 older pieces of cookware (I did keep my Revereware pan - sentimental). It heats and cooks evenly, uses less heat to cook completely, and cleans up like a dream. The manufacturer says this can go in the dishwasher, but I do not do that with my good pans. I have decided to replace all of my old cookware with Scanpan items.

Great pan for stove top to oven. Do not use PAM-like products on this, you probably won't need it. Ok, it's a tad pricey. It's worth the price. Even heating, great fitting top. Great at keeping low, even temps for slower cooking. Zero hot spots. Great product.

Amazon’s product information states that this pan is induction compatible. It is NOT induction compatible. So… I will be returning this pan, as it cannot be used on my induction stove. Very disappointed. It states right on the product box (see photo) that this is compatible with all cooktops except induction. Wish I’d known this before wasting my time ordering this. Silly me, I thought I could rely on the product info provided by Amazon. I hope they correct this mistake to save other induction owners from purchasing this pan. Amazon, please fix your product information!

There is NOTHING I like the least about this Scanpan. Just prior to purchasing it, I purchased a complete set if AllClad Copper Core. I just wish I would have found this treasure first. It is well worth the money. NOTHING sticks in it. It simply wipes out with a paper towel, then a quick wash and it's ready to dry and put away. Water even rolls up on it for easy drying.

There is always a risk ordering something online when you’ve never had your hands on it. This seemed to meet my needs, so I took a chance. I did some “googling†afterwards and learned "the base" was 22.5 cm. Holy Moley! That was way too small! I didn't want a Wok, I wanted a Chef's pan! I tried to cancel the order but I'm glad it didn't go thru.Now that I have it in hand, I realize “the base†is what touches the stove top. The actual cooking surface on the bottom, inside, of the pan, is 27cm. Not much of a difference, but the cooking surface determines how much you can lay down. 2 inches is a lot and I’m glad the dimensions actually matched the pictures and my expectation of a true Chef’s Pan. “The internet†needs to clarify the difference between a base and a cooking surface.Since I just got it, I can’t comment on the longevity of the non-stick surface. The bottom is very solid and I believe all of the claims “it can’t be warped, even if you tryâ€. That is what I was looking for and what sold me on the ScanPan. An unwarpable, thick, bottom.The instructions say you should never use high heat. That will affect the non-stick properties (If I need to sear something, I’ll use my cast iron). Never use spay-on oils, etc. It even says don’t put it in the dishwasher (even though its dishwasher safe). Maybe that is where all those “non-stick wore out in 6 months†reviews come from. I’m hoping so. I don’t want this to become useless that quick. If my first ScanPan disappoints me, I’ll update this review and let you know.Update: About 15 months later with heavy use and proper care, it still looks new.Update: 3 years later and the surface looks almost new (second picture). Still satisfied.
