I won one of these from hosting a cooking show. I cooked bacon on it this morning. it did an excellent job nothing was brunt and the bacon didnt shrivel up next to nothing. after I saw all this brunt on food(grease) and though there is no way this is going to come off easly. well i ran hot water and a soapy wash clothe over it and it came out super clean. The griddle did look a little bit duller afterwards. SO i just used some bar keepers friend and it was shiny again.

OMG, I have been trying to hold off on righting a review because I appreciate review from people who have really spent some time using the product to find out long term how they hold up. I bought in Jan. 2010 and love it!!! I cannot say enough good about it. Perhaps a little large for some people but that doesn't bother me at all. I cook one person meals on it all the time and like knowing I have room to cook more for company. It never sticks, everything cooks fast and even, clean up is a breeze. Have made eggs, pancakes, chicken, stir fry and grilled cheese on it. It is beautiful, substantial and versatile. Not one complaint. This will last a lifetime and then some. Just what I wanted, something to have and I need never look for another ever. I would give as gift (but if smaller size available that would be more appropriate for some). Love It!!!!!

I like the other reviewer was afraid I would think this was too Big!

I'd rather cook in this than anything!

I LOVE it!...I actually just purchased 4 more!

Nice little griddle. When you unbox it though, you need to wash it before using it just like the instructions instruct. They advise to use vinegar and detergent to take off the industrial oils from manufacturing or it will leave a permanent brown stain. I have only stainless steel pots, so the secret to using this type of surface is to heat it slowly with a low temperature for about 5 minutes with your oil on the surface. I have gas, so I am unsure how it works with electric burners. But once you have a even low temperature, then it will work just like a non stick surface. It cooks the best pancakes and sausages.
