I love this pan. I have read some of the reviews about this cookware and I don't feel like the product should be punished because people do not know what they are doing. I have been very happy with this product, and all the products I have purchased in this line. One of the best things about it is that they are dishwasher safe, for the most part. They cook evenly and you don't have to worry about the non stick coating chipping off and getting into your food. I do have two of the non stick coated pans and have not had any trouble with the coating coming off at least visibly. They will tarnish over time if you only put them in the dishwasher however, but there is a warning about this on the instructions. Overall I would say these are wonderful products. Purchase them and please remember that metal conducts heat, be safe. see less

[...] Once outside of the box we realized that there aren't any 'bolt's on the side handles or lid so they have weird weld marks where they just pushed through the actual pan. The metal is very thin and will most likely dent with and not keep food hot as long as hoped. see less

I use this pan for almost anything - from soups to stews, stirfries to casseroles....you name it! Almost anything I cook in it comes out so delicious that I hardly have leftovers! I love it that it heats evenly, cleans easily and that red shade brings a pop of color to my almost white kitchen. It's my first cast iron piece and I decided to buy it after seeing it on [...] cooking show. I'm just so glad I bought it instead of the more expensive brands. Now I'm planning on getting GDL's bigger cast iron pot. Thanks, Giada! see less

I saw Giada using this on her show and had to have it! I use it at least once a day for anything from browning ground beef, to making meatballs, to slow cooking spaghetti sauce! It's the perfect size!! see less

I'm a big fan of Giada de Laurentiis and I always watch her on TV. I've also always wanted to own a cast iron pan but the more popular brands are priced way too high for my budget. When I saw this pan on target.com, I immediately bought it. The pan cooks really well - meats and veggies caramelize very nicely. Since I got it, I cook almost anything in it - from soups, stews to stir fries. The best part is that my family always finishes whatever dish I cook in it. I also love how easy it is to clean despite its weight. I'm very very happy with this purchase! see less

I have Giada's red non stick cookwera, but it didnt have a large satee pan. This was a perfect addition. It is HUGE. It is perfect for all the pan frying I do and seems great so far, but I am only a month in. see less

These are the best quality pans I have found for less than $100 per piece. I hope they hold up over time as well. We will see. see less

GREAT PAN. I USE IT FOR EVERTHING. THE TRICK TO THESE PANS IS TO USE COOKING UTENSILS WITH SILOCONE ENDS SO IT DOESNT CRATCH THE PAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! see less

Excellent way to avoid teflon coating. Cleans up well, no problems with food sticking, comfortable handle and nicely fitting lid. The lid is inset a little, making it easy to drain the water off pasta without worrying about losing noodles.The metal handle does get hot when heating for a while.I plan to stick with this line of cookware. see less

To the person leaving this pan 1 star. You wrote that the pan did not hold up to the dishwashing. If you read the description, it obviously states that it should be hand washed only...... Sorry but you ruined the pan.Really liked the pan. Perfect sized, cleans well :) see less

I've used this pot three times. Once to cook pasta, it discolored... and twice to make hard boiled eggs. After hand cleaning the pot, both times, it rusted. After running it through the dishwasher it is still discolored and rusted. I am returning it to the store.stainless steel shouldn't rust, nor should it discolor. My mother's pots and pans from 50 years ago still look just like new.I am incredibly disappointed. see less

I like and appreciate Giada's recipes and products. Unfortunately, this nonstick pan did not deliver. We tried cooking eggs in it three times. The pan gets way too hot even on medium and the eggs burn. The directions stated not to use a nonstick spray, but without this, everything sticks. I am disappointed. see less

I love this pan. I have wanted to replace my teflon frying pan that was in sad shape with something that was less toxic, something I could use a metal or plastic utensil on without worrying about scratches, and I wanted something that had a lid. This fits the bill perfectly. I was worried that this wouldn't be big enough, but when I got it in the mail I saw that it wasn't that much smaller than my big frying pan, and it was actually much deeper, so I can fit more than enough of whatever I am cooking in it. It's so pretty- I feel like a fancy french chef cooking with it, even if I am just making pancakes. And it is super easy to clean- just as easy as my non-stick pans. see less
