Is this pan worth the price? How does the bottom hold up after cutting on it?

I think this pan is worth the price. Granted I've only used it 4 times, but every time it has worked like it was suppose to. The bottom is much thicker and heavier than other springform pans. I've also cut on it a few times and it has held up. Knife marks do show up, but they haven't completely gone through the coating. With that being said, I wouldn't recommend cutting on the bottom regularly.

With wear, cut marks will appear, but I had my last one about 12 years. Definitelyworth the price. In fact, I wouldn't buy any other.

Im a big fan of this pan. I went and bought a second one so I can make two cakes at once, and bought my sister one for Christmas. The finish seems very durable, I cut on it all the time, and have yet to scratch it. Yes, these pans are not cheap, but they are high quality.

I NEVER cut anything on a non stick pan... I DO think this pan is worth the price... It's not made in Germany, but, it's still my favorite non-stick pan... Highest quality I found yet...

There are not any sharp edges on the pan. It's all pretty safe. Mine has scratched up some but it's not horrible and I don't think there's any way it wouldn't. But it all seems pretty durable.

This little pan works wonderfully, but is definitely not the quality of my higher end pans. Wash it by hand, not in the dishwasher, and it should last. The non-stick coating will otherwise come off easily. And, be careful not to overfill with water, or you will be hard boiling, not poaching.

Yes that the kind I have. I have heavily used the pan for 5 years now and I just started to notice some discoloration in the center, but I would say it has lasted enough. As a rule I never put the heat higher that 7.

I have used this pan for along time now almost daily, cooking everything, high heat, meat, veggies, fish, etc. and it's the be most durable I ever owned. It's a bit discolored now at the bottom, but still no sticking or peeling. Have replaced all my other pans with the same product. I love it.

It's a very smooth surface. I am so enjoying making omelets and scrambled eggs and grilled cheese sandwiches in mine. It is great for sauting also and cleans up beautifully. I splurged on it but I feel it was worth it. I have several other pans I know avoid using. Better give them away!

I would buy the pan again. I just warn that you must not use heat higher than medium or you will burn your food. This pan conducts heat very well and I am pleased with it.

I love this pan. I have two of them. The best non stick pan I have ever owned. I have not had a problem with the non stick coating..I'm somewhat suspicious that they used metal utensils or a Brillo pad to clean this which you should never do.. Again..best pans I have ever owned and we'll worth the money..Take care of it and it will last a long time.. I hope this helps..

I use it often. It is a great pan. There is one thing... you need to clean the corners very well to keep the buildup out. I am happy with it and can recommend it.

I've had it over a month and use it daily. So far, it's still very easy to clean and hasn't stained. The instructions recommend you season it before you use it, so, maybe that helps prolong the non-stick properties.

It's sturdy but probably better not to put something quite so heavy on it. There are plenty of good quality "clad"pans that would be better. I hope this helps. T

Yes it's great. It's our favorite pan to cook with and we use it for everything. The nonstick finish holds up great too.

I don't cut on it. I have a junk pan I cut on and transfer it to this one. To me it's worth it to preserve the pan.

Sorry, I can'tanswer your question. As I said, it's a nice pn for the money. I bought it because I couldn't afford to by the Calaphon coated pan or any of the other high priced pans.

Yes, I would buy this pan again and again (even as a gift). I have had it for a while (months). I use it every day, especially at breakfast, instead of using a pan from my more expensive sets. This pan distributes very evenly and the monogrammed non-stick coating is the absolute best in my opinion. A quick wipe with paper towels over the trash can while still warm makes a perfect cleanup.

The bottom surface is smooth and sliding is not a problem. I have used this skillet many times, mostly as an omelet pan, and it is a very high quality cooking tool. I would not want to be without it!

Agree with C. Cruz. I believe it's a quality pan. Obviously, good to make a panini, but I like it for burgers when I can't get outside to grill.
