I should give this a 1 star rating, for the stupidity of the company to GLUE a sticker, onto the middle of the pan! 😠Think about that for a minute. A non stick surface, that you are instructed to use special care, in order to not scratch it's surface. Took me 3 hours to get the GLUE off! After soaking it in hot soapy water, I used white vinegar on a paper towel, and rubbed it off. THIS PAN BETTER LAST A LONG TIME! UPDATE: After using this pan, I was amazed at how great it is! I have never had a non stick pan that worked this well. THIS IS TRULY NON STICK ! Plus, It generates heat evenly. Great for making omelettes. Effortless cleaning. I still wish they hadn't put a sticker on the cooking part of the pan. But I love the pan !
