Negative Positive
Title: Was 4 stars at first, but over time...
Review: I was very excited to purchase this piece as it was my first higher-end pan. It heats up, and retains heat, very well. There are few hot spots using this pan, so cooking in it is great. However, clean up is another issue. I never put it in the dishwasher. I only used soft sponges to clean it. I usually cleaned it immediately after using it (once it cooled). But it appears like a layer of metal or whatever has worn off (is now dull instead of having a sheen). Since it's worn off, the food has been sticking A LOT more, so it's a cycle --> clean, wear off some metal, food sticks, repeat.I still use this pan, but have put a similar style pan on my wedding registry so I can replace it soon.
