I absolutely love my Chef's Classic Skillet. It cooks evenly and is very roomy for the large meals I make. So easy to clean up. Wash in soapy water and rinse, ready to be used again. I am so glad I found this product!
I would recommend this to a friend!

By far the best skillet that I’ve ever used. Cuisinart is quality with affordability rolled into one. I’ve use this brand for many years after using the dime-a-dozen cheep stuff and became so tired of replacing it every year because it couldn’t hold up to everyday cooking. Happy Cooking!

This 12” skillet is heavyweight and big enough to get the job done.

I bought this one year ago and noticed that the center of the pan was higher than the edges. I thought this was normal But it does make cooking some things difficult, I realize now after research, it is not normal.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I'm a home chef and work at home (aka I'm home every day). I cook every mean at home. I used this pan for nearly every meal. I estimate I cooked with this pan close to 200 times. I love the feel. I can easily toss food while cooking, which means I don't need to use utensils (aka no scratches). The pan heats evenly and retains heat well. For the first 170 uses, the non-stick was fine. The last couple dozen uses the pan is sticking. Even frying bacon or adding pasta to a sauce is sticking. When the food sticks, it will burn. This pan is no longer useable.

I bought this and read the instructions on the packaging and online before I used it. I heated the pan slowly to medium on my electric range and coated it with a good amount of olive oil. I cooked some asparagus and mushrooms and the veggies started to stick. The range was set at medium and I was constantly moving the veggies with a plastic spatula and were still were sticking. After that I let the pan cool completely down and hand washed the pan with Dawn and a soft cloth. There were several brown spots that took some elbow grease to get most of the spots out. Still had a couple after two attempts and the pan is now discolored.
I tried to cook eggs, over medium, with olive oil. Same thing happened. Used medium heat and the eggs stuck to the pan. Ugh.
It’s my first stainless steel pan, so I’m still researching on how to avoid the sticking and discoloration. Until then, I’m using my inexpensive non stick pan.

I love how evenly it cooks, however the handle design leaves a lot to be desired. It's uncomfortable to use and almost impossible to hold when draining. Very disappointed - thought a Cuisinart product would be designed better

Great pan so far, but I still have to use a little of oil for my eggs (etc) or they will stick. For the money, I expected nothing to stick at all.
