I do see other reviews stating food sticks to the pan, I have not experienced food sticking during cooking. I too attempted to wash the pan after cooking and thought the pan was done! I could not get it clean. My husband advised I use an SOS pad; and viola the pan is as good as new. Hope this helps others as the pan really is great, just needed the proper cleaning method. Review: An excellent pan for a very good price - can't beat the value - I recently got rid of every item in my kitchen with a non-stick/teflon coating due to the health risks associated with them. I have now switched over to stainless steel or cast iron only. With regards to skillets, all I had was a cheapo Walmart 8" stainless steel skillet that I got in a set of pots and pans. Those had solid reviews just like this Cuisinart does...but there's no comparison in quality. The Cuisinart wins by a mile. This is a solid and well made skillet. It feels heavy and sturdy - there are no loose joints or anything that could make it feel like it wasn't top quality. I've been using it for about two months now and the results have been great. If you aren't familiar with cooking on stainless steel, you need to know the tips and tricks to preventing sticking. Sometimes it's going to happen and you just have to work a little harder to clean it up. I'm no pro but here's what I try and do: -Use lower heat than you're used to. For me it's not necessary to use the same level of heat I used with my teflon pans. -Try not to put ice cold items into a hot pan - you should allow whatever you're cooking to come closer to room temperature before putting it in the skillet. -When cooking with oil, there seems to be a good result when letting the pan heat up some before adding the oil. This creates an "oil slick" type of effect where the heat on the pan prevents it from binding to the oil. -Speaking of which, be sure to use some sort of lubrication - oil/fat - when cooking. There are some scenarios where it doesn't seem to help at all but it's generally a good idea. -Don't burn your food! Also worth noting is that I went a little crazy and bought the 14" version because I figured bigger pan, low price, bigger is better...then I realized I have 8" burners on my electric stove...I was worried it would not work well but it hasn't been a problem at all. The aluminum in the base of the skillet conducts and spreads heat very well. While the outer portions are not as hot, since they aren't on direct heat, they get plenty hot to cook things - it's more than just a warming zone. For example, when I make pancakes in the morning, I cook the pancakes in the middle of the pan (can do 4-5 medium sized pancakes) and I put the sausage around the edges. By the time I've made a few batches of pancakes, the sausages are cooked. If I'm not careful to rotate them they will still burn. ## Features - Stainless Steel - Imported - EXCEPTIONAL DESIGN: enjoy mirror finish, classic look and professional performance.

Not knowing, or listening to the other users who say "sure it works", when clearly they do not have induction work tops (they NEVER say they have the cook tops and have tried it themselves!) is no excuse for returning it for a full refund. I purchased from this site, and this product, found it did not work on any of my induction "burners", and received a whopping $22 refund back. It is a beautiful pan though! **Q: For those who said the food always stick to the pan. Which other stainless skillet did you end up buying?** A: To BC & VP: The only stainless skillet I recently bought was the Cuisinart 722-36H Chef's Classic.. The whole trick to preventing food from sticking is not to have the pan too hot. Also - have a bottle of Bar Keepers Friend on hand for thorough cleaning. Really works. The pan will look like new. Good luck. **Q: Is stainless steel the safest material to cook in? What if the bottom is scratched with a knife?** A: I love my stainless steel pan. With the flat bottom of the pan your food cooks evenly and it has been the best one I've owned. Yes, they can have some scratches but that hasn't made any difference in the cooking of foods. **Q: what's the difference between a "skillet" and a "fry pan"?** A: A skillet is a pan with slanted sides. A fry pan is another name for a skillet. A sauce pan has straight sides. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Pan! Comes clean with SOS PAD *by T***L on April 10, 2026* Great pan!
