Nam: At first, I had a hard time seasoning it because the instructions that comes with it was not clear and not quite right. I had to scrub it down and redo the whole thing.

Cristina Testoni: Capienza ottimale

Pickled Fairy: This pan came with pre-use (seasoning the pan), cleaning and preservation instructions which, if followed, works perfectly. (I prep my wok in the very same way so there is no rust). In terms of size, this pan fed 8 people easily and could take more in quantity so I would say for 10 people it is perfect.

Mrb7Mrb7: This is a very good, well made, basic cooking pan. The metal stamping is tight and accurate, no sharp edges or burrs. The handles are good and tight. The divot patterned cook surface adds some structural integrity that keeps the wide bottom flat. I have thousands of dollars in cookware, and this $25 pan is right at home, and it’s a welcome addition. I’d give it six stars if I could. It’s great. I very pleased with it.

Yeah. It’s thin steel, but these pans are supposed to be thin steel. So that’s correct, not cheap like some folks imply. Although it is fairly inexpensive.

The people who complain about rust are expecting magic. Steel rusts if you let it. My expensive De Buyer pans rust if abused, too. Oil it a little and cook on it, then it won’t rust. These people need throw-away pans from Walmart. I fully expect this pan to make great family memories for years to come.

M. P.M. P.: I purchased the 24 inch model, and when it came I was a little surprised. It seems large, but once I put it on my burner and cooked a meal for my family, I appreciated that it gave me he space to cook on high heat in the middle, and then move items to the sides to stay warm or cook slowly.

Four steaks and brussels with bacon turned out perfectly.

The clean up was easy, I just washed with soap and water and scraped the stubborn spots with a flat edge, then used a wire cleaning pad. It took about 3 to 5 minutes, so its not like its a huge effort. I then put the pan back on the heat for about 30 seconds and wiped down with olive oil so it won't rust.

I saw some reviews saying it got discolored after cooking, but it just shows normal wear and tear. If you don't take care of it, I'm sure it might rust, but just treat it like cast iron and make sure you don't put it away wet and I think you will be all good.

This has replaced my grill.

The Smart Blonde: I am originally from Valencia Spain where paella originates. This is just like the pan my grandmother had. A real paella pan, such as this one, must be seasoned before using and after each time you use it, wash with a sponge and warm soapy water. You must hand dry it, not air dry it. Then add a little olive oil in the center and use a small piece of paper towel to cover the entire pan with a thin coat of olive oil to preserve it and keep it from rusting. I remember, this is exactly what my grandmother would do back in Spain. This is an authentic paella pan. One thing to remember about real cooks is that the utensils we use will never look like they did in a store window once we use them. If you buy a paella pan and it looks just like the way it was when you first bought it, you are not using it to cook, or you don’t have an authentic pan. When you make paella for 10 Spaniards they are not going to say”Gee, your pan looks brand new”; but rather “Qué paella deliciosa”. I have used it inside over 3 gas burners on my stove (I have a stove that has 5 burners , 2 on the right and 2 on the left and 1 in the center) and outside on a gas ring. I prefer to cook inside.
