Straight out of the box, Washed it 1st, heated it up, used a very scant tsp butter, and a 3 egg omelet slid around, no sticking at all. Next day, 3 whole eggs, same amt of butter, same result. Have used it a couple more times for dinner meals. It is in the front line in my kitchen now for stove top. I’m familiar with how to use carbon steel cookware but this is my 1st blue CS. I really (really) like it. The wooden handle stays cool, cleans up in a flash. I oil it a little bit after each use. Will stove top season soon. If it keeps up the good work, this one will be handed down. If you enjoy the sport of cooking with this type of pan, you’ll really like this one☺️
I purchased the 9.5" Forest fry pan after doing some intense research on the company and the products. This fry pan is like nothing I have cooked with before. It feels and cooks like cast iron, but without the bulk and unwieldly weight. The surface is amazing (and safe). I use an induction cooktop and have used the pan on lower heat for fluffy eggs, medium heat for stir fried vegies and have seared steaks on high heat to perfection. Nothing sticks and the cleanup is as easy as wiping with a bit of hot water. I am saving up some money to purchase the 8" and 11" pans!
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this frying pan! The heat distribution is amazing, its versatile for steaks to veggie stir fry. Easy to clean and durable. It came preseasoned so that's a plus. Great value for the price.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Okay. This pan is amazing. I love the look of it. The wood handle. It’s beautiful. It’s so easy to clean. It was quick to heat up and cooked my eggs flawlessly and nothing stuck to it whatsoever. Needless to say it’s my new favorite pan

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pan is amazing! I was so excited about this claim. I’ve used to multiple times since I received it, making anything from eggs, pancakes, chicken, grilled cheese, etc. Nothing sticks and the cleanup is so easy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great size and heavy duty weight. Has a great frying capacity. Gave a great sear to my breakfast sausage. It’s amazing pan and wish I would have purchased this before. Storages great as well.
