this pan is the perfect size to use for just about everything. In fact, I have a similar style pan that’s cast-iron that I use every single day. I love it, but I’m really happy to have this nonstick version. This is one of three pans I purchased, and it is beautiful, pretty heavy duty, but not too heavy to pick up and really well made. So far, I am extremely happy with my purchase and I hope that all three of the pants I bought last for a long time. However, I am very realistic about how even the best nonstick will wear out after a couple of years.
