This was a great buy. I was not sure what kind of quality this would be, but I was pleasantly surprised. It is not the high quality of the really high-end cookware like Emeril, etc., but it is good enough for everyday cooking.
I like the fact that this is light-weight because I had to sell my Emeril cookware because it was too heavy to lift when full of food. This construction has been good enough to hold a full pan, yet lightweight enough that I can hold it with one hand. I also like the fact that the lid on this is glass so that I can see what is cooking.
Plus, the non-stick coating makes clean-up really nice. It is dishwasher-safe like it says, too. That was one of the biggest selling points for me since I do as little hand-washing as humanly possible. I know other reviews of this cookware state problems with the non-stick coating, but I have had none after several uses. Maybe mine is a newer version.
The only dislike I have had is that the handle only has a thumb holding area that is provided to protect you from a hot handle. Although it has not gotten hot yet, and is not supposed to, I would feel safer with a covered handle.
Overall, this has been a real bargain. It has held up well and has been all I could want. In fact, I like it so well that I have purchased other pieces of this make. I wish there was a picture of it provided so that you could see the lid and have an idea of the size and construction, but it looks much like the Farberware Accents Covered Deep Jumbo Fry Pan, but smaller, of course.

This skillet is great compared to the crappy skillets I replaced with it. I love the non-stick surface and how my food cooks evenly. Cleaning the skillet is a breeze even if left in the sink overnight. However, unlike the product description, the handle DOES NOT stay cool when cooking on the stove top and I found out the hard way...ouch! Always keep some oven mitts nearby when handling this skillet.
Best Deals for Farberware Specialties Aluminum Nonstick, Platinum
This is the best pan I have ever had. I bought it to replace one that I've had for eons and it just gave out. I used it to make rice and thought it was the best. Not so. This new pan that I purchased is THE BEST pan and my rice comes out better than it did before. I am still new at using the pan but if it cooks my rice the way I want it then I am sure everything else is going to be great as well. Please have no reservations on purchasing this pan as I am VERY satisfied. I am sure that you will purchase other sizes as well after using this pan.
Honest reviews on Farberware Specialties Aluminum Nonstick, Platinum
I purchased the 14 pc set at Kohls and thought it was great until I noticed the nonstick finish was coming off of two of the saucepans. I had only used them a couple of times. It looked as if I had used metal utensils but I had used plastic. I didn't even cook on high. The skillets were okay when I returned the whole set (plus the larger skillet I purchased seperately), but I was afraid they would start loosing the finish as well.

I'm really happy with the Faberware Classic skillet. I purchased an 8-inch and a 10-inch skillet and I'm no chef but I the skillets seem to me to be good quality. They heat evenly and the best part is they are non-stick which means they are really, really easy to clean. Not only do they cook good, but they look nice as well and compliment any modern kitchen with their sleek, comfortable design.
