I've had this pan for about a month now and have used it several times a week since I've gotten it.When it first arrived I was impressed on how they presented it in the packaging as you open the lid you are presented with this high quality item that just screams to be unboxed and get onto the stove top. Upon taking it out of the box you immediately notice the superb quality of the unit. The handle feels great in your hand and the weight of the construction screams that it is going to outlive me...I followed the pre-seasoning instructions and then proceeded to cook my first meal, beef Szechuan. This pan cooked so evenly and the clean up was as simple as a quick wipe out with a paper towl.I was really intrigued by the extended lip so my next meal I prepared pan seared Halibut. The lip was perfect for allowing me to tilt the pan while I based the the fish. Once again because of the quality of the pan it produced a much better dish than I have the ability to do on my own.At this point I'm am so excited that I have run the pan thru numerous places cooking everything from pan seared stakes that get finished off in the oven to sauces that normally stain a pan and this unit has not disappointed. Even cooking and clean up is a breeze. This pan is now my go to for 90% of all my cooking whether it be on the stove top, the grill or the oven
