I have used the T-Fal skillet pictured in the past and was very pleased with it, but it is NOT what I received. The pan with the red dot heat indicator is shown. The one received did not have the red dot feature, more importantly it is much thinner and has a cheaper handle attachment than the one pictured. I suspect this is due to carelessness on Amazon's part, rather than an effort to cheat customers, never the less, it is effectively a case of "bait and switch," Note that this product comes from Amazon, not an associated seller.

My first bad experience with Amazon I hope my last!

i agree that the pan does have a certain limited life expectancy, especially under heavy use...but for those moderate cooks, it will hold up for a few years. I have had mine for about 2.5 years and i am a moderate cook myself. It is a great pan at a great price. Good heat distribution and light-weight materials, yet rather sturdy. The handle does wobble a bit, but its stayed in place just fine. This is my pan of choice for browning or caramelizing onions and garlic!! C'est magnifique!! Great pan at this price!!!

Best Deals for T-fal Initiatives Nonstick Inside and Out Oven Safe Dishwasher Safe

First, I think expensive non-stick is a waste since the cookware has to be resurfaced or replaced once it's scratched or worn. I was looking for a super slick inner surface for not a lot of buck. The T-Fal pans were it.

The inside of the pans are very slick. They are not heavily textured like other pans. This seems counter-intuitive to me; expensive pans want to last longer so they texture their surface yet that adds more surface area for the food to stick to. As an example, I have a harder time cleaning the bottom of the pans than I do the inside.

The thickness of the pan is thin. It is thick enough to even low and medium flames but it cools very quickly. It's a very nice egg pan.

My only complaint is the handle. Even as tight as the screw will go, two of my handles still move slightly side-to-side. It's not enough to affect cooking, but it's annoying.

Overall, I'm very happy with spending $10 for a super slick pan.

I expected to receive a pan similar to the photo displayed, with the red heat sensitive dot in the center of the pan, but it is not the same product. Product is actually called "Initiatives Total Non-Stick." I bought it as a gift and may need to return it.

T-Fal is an excellent quality and a good buy. Nice, heavy pan and very "non-stick". Now I just have to find a lid to fit it's large size!!
