First, the obvious. This piece honestly doubles as art and skillet. The attention to detail is obvious, as is the supreme craftsmanship/quality.

Sear steaks, fry eggs over easy, or cook up some ground beef and beans in it… it all works and it works well.

This thing heats up in seconds (butter disappeared in under 60 seconds after turning in my gas range), however you can use it for a prolonged period of time without the need for a handle cover.

The only potential downside to this pan is the sheer weight, which is absolutely to be expected. This definitely is not a gift I’d send over to my gam-gam for the holidays. She’d likely break a hip trying to pull it out of the cupboard. A+++

easy to clean, perfect for my way of cooking, the craftsmanship is amazing, I just leave it out on the stove to see

I love the look of the skillet and wish it were better. For the price, I do not recommend this. I followed the instructions and the middle sticks and the pan does not heat evenly.

Beauty meets functionality which meets durability. In today's world that's unheard of. I'm sure your employees are proud of what they do every day. Hats off to Smithey!

It's fabulous and very quickly became my favorite cooking utensil. It's been wonderful for sautéing fresh vegetables, frying eggs, omelettes, browning hash browns. More satisfying to use then my modern frying pans and skillets.

And the seasoning is easier to apply than the vegetable oil I had been using. And less wasteful and less messy.
