Got this a few months ago and it's of good quality. We use it pretty much daily, and bought it because we were tired of getting the nonstick pans and having them either start to flake off (the non-stick coating) or the bottoms start to bow (cave upward, so that the middle of the pan would not maintain flat contact with our stove--this caused problems with our induction-cooking stovetop, which would end up turning off and on when we'd use the warping non-stick pans). So we decided to try this stainless steel skillet. Figured it's a good brand, and it was half off during a "Deal of the Day".
So far, so good. We really don't have any problems with food sticking (we were primarily worried about that, having used non-stick pans forever) and the stainless steel is nice and thick, very good quality. The handle of the pan stays cool, and the bottom of the pan has stayed nice and flat. We've also had no problems with staining (even when we've burnt stuff accidentally). It cleans up nice, either by hand or in the dishwasher.

Nice size, very sturdy. Was so tired of having to hold my pan when making an omelet to make sure it cooked evenly. This pan is heavy enough that it stays flat on the bottom.

I decided to get rid of all of our non-stick skillets and replace them with stainless steel. Really like the look, have learned to cook at lower temps and to immediately soak the pans if something gets stuck. The only reason it doesn't have 5 stars is it would be awesome to have a helper handle as the skillet is pretty heavy.

Got this pan because some frozen foods I buy say to use this type of pan to cook the food.
Didn't know Best Buy got into the kitchen utensils business. Got this as a deal of the day. Found the same pan on sale at Kohl's after buying this at Best Buy. Best Buy still had the better pricing deal.
Beautiful looking pan. It was a pity to have to use it. Then, again, I bought it for cooking not to admire the material and craftsmanship. I like the short handle. The pan can be heavy for some. Having the short handle helps when carrying the pan.
I have burned foods on this pan within 3 months of receiving it. I used Bon Ami to remove the burnt food.
Scratches will appear at the bottom of the pan from moving it around the stovetop.
I hand wash this pan even though the instructions say you can use it in the dishwasher. Unfortunately, a jar fell onto the pan while I was washing it and chipped the surface of the pan. Sill kicking myself for letting that happen. The surprise is at how durable it is enough to break the jar. This is not a nonstick pan. Therefore, the chip does not interfere with the cooking.

I was looking for a larger pan to make family meals in that wasn't non-stick. This is perfect! Great quality too.

I was hoping this would be large enough to replace my old, worn out super sized skillet, and it did not disappoint. This thing is huge! It feels solid and well built. We use it all the time, and thus far, it has held up really well.

A great skillet for just about anything. Size is quite large and can easily accommodate dinner for an entire family. Haven't found anything to "complain" about as of yet. Happy we got it when it was a deal of the day, best price!
