Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I absolutely love this frying pan. 1) I can cook enough pot stickers (lid is essential) to feed my family of 4 in just two batches. 2) Making fried rice is so easy, because of the non-stick feature, again the large size is really convenient. 3) Even the always sticky Chinese Chow Fun is no problem for this non-stick pan. 4) Yes chinese dishes are no problem for this pan, and it is equally fantastic in saute'ing western style dishes. I make pancakes, scramble eggs, pork chops, steaks, saute fish, paella, chili and many other dishes using this pan.
So far, under almost daily usage, the non-stick surface is still looking very good, without any flaking and scratches. I use only wood and plastic spatulas. The large size and higher walls make it easy to toss and stir the food without spilleage, which makes cleanup much easier. BTW, my cook top is gas, and the pan distributes the heat very evenly over the entire surface.
I hope they keep making this pan, because I'm buying another when this one finally wears out. My pan is entirely made of metal, without any plastic on the handles, so I'm able to put it into the oven for baking as well.
Jan 17 2011 Update,
A year and a half later and the Pan is still in great condition. Non-stick material is still working fine. I'm giving it to my daughter, because she wanted it for making gyoza's. Time for me to buy a new one.
