This pan was written up in the Wall Street Journal and it is great: wonderful nonstick surface and light weight and easy to clean.

I've used gas stoves all my life, that is up until the past few years. I currently use an electric stove and am having the hardest time getting used to it. I always used cast iron pans but unfortunately they aren't conducive to electric glass top stoves. I switched to stainless steel but seemed to burn everything. I tried your small carbon steel pan and fell in love. It worked so well on my electric stove that I sought to purchase other sizes. I ordered the 10 and 12 inch pans and love them. It's the closest to cooking in cast iron without the weight and glass scratching.

Great pan - cooks evenly and heats up pretty quickly.

Best non-stick I've ever used

Have had this pan for about 2 weeks and so far, I am very impressed. It is truly the best non-stick pan I've owned. It heats evenly -- something my T-Fal skillet doesn't really do -- and very quickly. Easy to clean as well.

Discolored Pan

My grill pan discolored after just one use. I made two hamburgers and although the pan cleaned well, it was discolored. I issued a complaint and was given instructions. However, the instructions were for burnt on food which wasn’t the case.

Favorite feature(s): Easy to Clean

Disappointed

I have had this pan for a year and after using it a few times it warped. I did so much research on what pan to get and made sure it was compatible with an induction stove. It is currently the only pan I have (my favourite is out of commission) which is why I decided to finally write a review. As I said, the pan is very warped. The middle has caved in sort of which means it cooks very unevenly and wobbles about an inch in any direction. It’s basically a cross between a pan and a wok but not in a good way. I take the care of my cookware very seriously. I was sure to properly season and clean the pan so I know it was not operator error. The handle is not comfortable, especially for the weight of the pan. It is very wide and comparatively “thin” so it digs in and is difficult to grip if you have about medium sized hands (think glove sized medium). Despite all the reviews saying it is a light pan, my 12” is anything but. I worked in industrial kitchens for about 10 years and have never experienced a pan like this. All that being said, the actual pan is good, I cooked eggs in it this morning and they didn’t stick in the way they did with my old pan (though they did cook unevenly due to the warp). This is the only reason I gave two stars instead of one. Very sad and disappointed in this pan. As I mentioned before I did extensive research before settling on Merten and Storck. I care very much about how my appliances and equipment perform and this product simply didn’t measure up.
