The pan is expensive, yeah, but its well worth it.The copper's sensitivity to heat is both a blessing and a burden.The disadvantage is getting used to the pan and to recipes.A low heat on copper is similar to medium heat with stainless steel.Also, stainless steel holds residual heat longer, which can be difficult with copper in some recipes that require you to shut the heat off and use the residual heat.The advantage is being able to instantly manipulate the temperature of the whole pan.It is easy to recover from over/under heating with copper.Yet, from experience I understand why copper is a professional's choice...and within a professional's budget.There is a lot of science behind cooking and this pan is a tool.If I don't understand the concept, how can the tool be used efficiently?This amateur learned from trial and error :D
I recommend this pan.I have a lot of memories with mine after three years and I am looking forward to using this the rest of my life.

Item delivered is not the 2mm, 10.4" pan. It is 1.5mm thick, 10.2".
Item arrived with a quarter-sized blemish and a few scratches in the copper (external surface). Also had fingerprints, which is strange in an item sold as new.
Amazon "Customer service" has no mechanism for me to exchange this for one actually described.
This was out-of-stock and took 4 weeks to arrive.
