The pan is more difficult to get a good browning than a stainless, but only because it has the non-stick coat. Also makes very good pan sauces, again not with the depth of flavor you'd get from the searing a stainless pan would provide.
The non-stick holds up well, but I only use nylon or wood utensils. Any non-stick can gouge if metal utensils are used aggressively.
I have several Cuisinart pans, and they all work wonderfully for me.
We purchased this to use on a glass top stove, and found that the pan was not flat.
We assume that not all are bowed, but ours was.

I very thoroughly researched all the nonstick hard-anodized products out there and decided on Cuisinart because it had the most vesatile product selection.The 5-1/2 quart saute pan is the bomb!!!It heats faster, cooks faster, and clean-up is a breeze.The first time I used it, I cooked a stove-top dish I have cooked many times, but because the hard-anodized cooks faster and hotter, I neglected to turn the heat down to accommodate this and the whole meal was burned and I thought to myself, Oh, great! the first time you use the pan, you ruin it by burning the pan.Well I took it to the sink to pour out the remnants that were not burned and had anticipiated that I would have to soak and scrub the pan and when I tipped the pan the entire burned mess just slid out of the pan and it looked as if it had never been cooked in.What a pan!!I LOOOOOOVE this cookware. I bought every piece that Cuisinart offers in this line.BUY IT, YOU'LL LOVE IT!!!I picked up a couple of the 3.5 quart saute pans when the price was $15.It does a good job with stir-fry, pan-fry, saute, etc.It is not a really heavy pan, so it is not as durable and won't heat as evenly as a high quality pan.I think it is a great deal for $15.There must be better pans available for $40, though.
