I've had this little pan for a couple of years. It heats quickly and evenly. It's very easy to clean except around the rivets. If I had it to do over again I wouldn't buy calphalon one because it has scratches all over it. I'm not a mad man, I don't dig into it, I'm middle aged, and I've used a lot of different pans in my time. This one needs plastic utensils or it will scratch. At some point in time I'll replace it because I don't like the idea of ingesting the coating, but I don't want to keep spending $100 on pans that scratch.

We originally got this pan as part of a set as a wedding gift several years ago. The surface coating of our original pan had worn through in areas and we decided to replace it so that our eggs would not stick during breakfast. The replacement pan behaves totally different than the original - dug the old pan out of the trash ... it still works better than the new one. Same model number, looks identical but sure is disappointing. Our guess is that it is a cheapened version of a previously excellent product. Very disappointed...certainly should not be considered an omelet pan ... everything sticks... a stainless steel pan works better and is easier to clean (also way less expensive).

I have owned these pans for years now and if you follow mfg., instructions they last for a long long time. Two important things are to NOT cook on High and NOT to use cooking sprays. They heat up qickly and hold the heat so you can actually finish the last few minutes of cooking while the gas or electric is turned off. The pan hold the heat so wonderfully. Happy cooking!
