So excited I was also at the beginning, after 11 months of daily use now unfortunately I had disposed of this frying pan. Despite pfleglichem handling (rare in the dishwasher, only wood & plastic so used), the coating in several places is already completely gone. The therefrom creates a vicious circle, in which sticks more and more, resulting in increasingly burdensome and more aggressive cleaning, which in turn means less coating, should be clear.
Of course you can not expect that a pan for life is but a little longer than just a year they should already hold for 23.99. Non-stick properties and handling were excellent in the first 4-6 months, however, it quickly becomes an expensive business if you have to renew the pan in this intervals. My next pan will probably hold 4-5 times cost, but also comes with a 10 year warranty and should just as long.
