My wife bought me 2 8" non-stick all-clad fry pans. They are excellent in every aspect. I like to use them for baking sticky apple pancakes and the just fall out of the pan when turn upside down.

Got this pan to replace the same kind and size. OK,OK... before you say something nasty about the product, I have to say that the first one we had was from an All-Clad grouping we got as a wedding gift almost 10 years ago. It's been used HEAVILY. The pan itself is in excellent condition, but the non-stick coating is getting a little worn. Still definitely usable, though! I do believe the non-stick surface the company uses now is an improved version. Anyway.... my husband and I truly love the cookware. We have added many more pieces to it over the years and have never been disappointed. It heats evenly, doesn't burn, cleans easily, nice weight,.... What more can I say? Good cookware really does make a HUGE difference to the final product. At this point I can't imagine using a different brand. Honest!

The nonstick surface lasted less than a year. Yes, I used only plastic or wooden utensils, I let it cool before I cleaned it, I used only nonstick-safe scrubbing pads, never put it in the dishwasher, etc. etc. But the surface just wore off and the food stuck terribly. I had to use tons of oil and still the food stuck. Food sticks a whole lot less in my $27 Lodge cast-iron frypan. I also have a Pampered Chef 8" nonstick pan ($45) that has performed beautifully for more than two years now--food slides right out. I really do not recommend this pan. I finally cleaned it as best I could and gave it to Goodwill. It is not worth the high price tag.
