We went out on a limb when we bought this skillet since there were no reviews here, and it wasn't top of the list at Consumer Reports. After a year of frequent use, we can say we have no regrets and have been well pleased with it's performance. The pan weighs about three and one half pounds. Much lighter than cast iron, but heavier than the Martha Stewart skillet we also have, which warps under the heat. We use the Starfrit on a smooth top stove, and it sits flat and browns amazingly evenly. The non-stick surface is working great and shows no signs of wear or peeling. Minor nitpicks are that it's a little hard to clean because of the dimpled surface, and the handle is a bit short to keep large hands off the hot metal. We assume the golf ball cooking surface is part of it's function, and it cleans easier if you use a nylon brush. Other than that, the only deduction would be the price. We won't know if that's justified until I have it for a couple more years. Loving it for now, though.
