Here are my early observations:

(1) Works on both induction and smooth-top ceramic burner

(2) Is properly balanced so stays flat with or without weight of food

(3) Holds 1.5 quarts with room to spare; 1 quart comfortably if stirring

(4) Cooks evenly without hot spots

(5) Pours without dripping

(6) Cooked over-easy eggs nicely with zero grease, not even spray

(7) Made of heavy gauge ferrous metal except handle which stays cool

(8) Non-stick interior, enamel exterior cleans up with ease

It came without a cover but I found a glass one that fits perfectly at Goodwill. The skillet's handle has a hole for hanging, which I like. One reviewer suggests that the quality of these changed somewhere along the line. If that is true, mine, which I bought in June 2011, is the older, better quality. Could be, actually, as it was hanging around in a small rural Kmart with a sale price on it. But more likely the quality never changed and they are just nice, heavyweight cookware. Will update as I gain experience with this skillet.

WHEN THIS PAN IS COLD IT LOOKS FLAT, BUT AS SOON AS IT IS HEATED, THE BOTTOM BECOMES WARPED AND ROUNDED, CAUSING THE PAN TO BECOME UNSTABLE ON THE STOVETOP. THIS IS PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS WHEN FRYING WITH HOT OIL. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE PRODUCT.

I thought because of this pan's heavy weight & "Tri-ply metal construction" and claim that it "provides even heating and rugged durability," that I would like it. NOT so. It immediately warps over medium heat so that it cooks only in the middle. Plus, it seems to burn things over the same medium heat at which my other skillets cook just fine.

It might have "professional weight" but this semi-professional cook hates it.

Save yourself some grief & buy any other skillet but this (though I would suggest a T-Fal product).

This pan is awful; the first time I used it on my electric stovetop, it warped, so only the center was in contact with the stove. The result is a hot spot that burns food, while the edges of the pan are too cool to brown properly. Don't buy this pan!

I fry a lot of fish with mine. It has two handles and I want another one. My two English Bulldogs were attacked by two bigger pitbulls with much longer legs. One chomped into the neck as the owner encouraged the fight. I bashed the ornery one on his thick head and put a massive dent in pan and the dogs head. He still ain't right and neither is my pan.
