Very Happy With Purchase I purchased both the 10″ and 12″ sizes of these covered skillets in April 2014. There have been a few occasions where my initial joy in a new piece of cookware disappears with long term use because the piece just didn’t hold up with heavy use. I’m pleased to say that in the 7 months I have been using these skillets they have performed beautifully and clean up well. I use the skillets at least once a week and now feel confident enough to recommend them to others. Not only that but…
In my wish to give the bad news first In my wish to give the bad news first, my first impression of the skillet had to do with Amazon.com poor shipping. Because the lid and the skillet were not individually wrapped in bubble wrap they both obtained some very noticeable and worrisome chips during shipment. The worst one is on the outside of the lip of the skillet near the base of the long handle and I fear it may worsen over time. This is very disappointing for me because I’ve wanted to buy this skillet for some time and then…
