This is a marvelous design for a pan! If one could only choose one, in addition to a fine skillet, this would be the one to buy, because it is wide enough, deep enough, responsive enough, heavy enough, to do just about anything. I have started and finished soups, done small stir-fries, sauteed, prepared greens, and made stew in it. I love that the bottom edge is rounded so food doesn't hide in an angle, and that the lip is curved, too, so pouring is clean and dripless. Mine is only 3 quarts, but for one or two persons, this is an advantage. I ordered it with a lid, which extends its usefulness. I clean the inside and outside both with "Barkeeper's Friend" and a soft nylon scrubber. If I'm feeling ambitious, I'll use copper polish. I don't mind the upkeep because the functionality of the pan makes it worth it. And there's no law that says you have to polish it at all! It is heavy and expensive, but Mauviel makes such fine quality cookware that I have acquired several different pieces and haven't been disappointed by any of them. Highly recommended.
