Whats the angle on the side of the pan? Is it such that I can flip an omelette, or stir fry with ease?

I really like this pan and we use it exclusively for stir fry. It is a great performer but a bit small when cooking for 3 or 4 people. Should work fine for omelette. I purchased the flatter pan for that and it is great. Both pans I purchased work great and are our preferred cookware.

About 45 degrees. Not tried flipping on omlett except with a spatula and it works great -- no sticking. Stir frys are great and clean-up with soap and water. Used this pan probably 80-100 times and still looks like new.

There is the slightest of angle. Though it is hard to tell. It has rounded edges on the bottom. If you are looking for a 90 * angle this is not the pan.

What do you mean by rotate not by hand? If you put a hot dog on it you can flip it and heat each side

This sides are straight. NOT curved like a Wok if that is what you are asking. I love this oversized pan! But, I wouldn't put it in the dishwasher. It is dishwasher safe, and I do put it in the dishwasher. But, I have noticed some slight deterioration of the teflon after about 50 washes. I use it a lot.

yes,i have both and you can do anything in this skillet ,but it wont hold as much as a wok because of the shorter sides.it can handle any heat and goes from the burner to the oven and not miss a beat.its thicker than a wok but to do both chinese and larger meals just go with the mineral b pots or high side.i deep fry chicken all the time in the 12 in and there the best quality ive ever bought,and they spank my expensive wolfgang puck set.

Love this fry pan. I am not in front of the pan now but it is deep - about 3.5 - 4 inches. I actually was going to write a review because it is perfect for me. the handles and base easily come off so cleaning the actual fry pan is easy. It is a non-stick surface like teflon. I amde steaks in it recently with no oil or anything and they did not stick. The cover and base and handles all nest inside for easy storage. There is a spout on the corner so you can pour out liquids without taking off the cover or losing your food items. I promise you will not be disappointed in this item...good luck.

11" and 7.5", respectively.it is too heavy for the constant tossing style of stir frying. the lip of the pan allows tossing very well, it is just too heavy to do that a lot. I use a much thinner one for that but the thin pan warps.

It makes a 7"D waffle. I don't think the flipping actually has any advantages with modern waffle makers.

Absolutely. If you'd like to have the grill grooves on both sides of what you are cooking I'd just flip the food over.

I never have food in the corner because of the shape, the food slides down. But, I would say that the plate would flip it you tried to cut and place pressure on the side of the plates because of the slant. You may want to go to walmart and check out the plates, they have that particular pattern and similar square plates on display. The high cost of this trendy pattern is not worth it, especially with the square plates.

I'm about to buy an Ecolution Evolve 12.5 inch "grande" pan. I have their smaller pan with no hump in the middle, and I wholeheartedly agree with you on the slight hump, very very frustrating to try to saute in butter or make pancakes or have eggs not slide to the outside edge. This was recommended by America's Test Kitchen, but I can't recommend it (and don't in my review).

I find that the cover functions reasonably well as a fry pan. I have made bacon and eggs, bannock, and even a stir fry in my cover. Weather the manufacturer intended for it to function as a fry pan I don't knows, but it works for me.

I just kept it on my counter, but I would turn it upside down because when you get to the bottom it's way too thick, if not. There's no way to stir it. I did shake every time I used it but wasn't good enough.

The bottom of the pan is the same as a fry pan; but it is slightly deeper. Depending how large your pancake is you may have an issue flipping the pancake Hope this helps.

I think the tall side picture is a saucepan, not the skillet. I have the 10 inch skillet and it is a perfect egg or small omelet pan that we use in our household almost daily.

Not angled inward. Outside dimension is 11 3/8 inches. Of more concern to me was that the food would be only 5/8 inch above the pan.

It's smooth. I'm not sure if it might be spun or not. We've done a lot of stir-fry in it. Easy to clean.
