This pan is great!!! It requires minimal or no oil, heats up quickly, and retains the heat well. I'd highly recommend it!

Woll's main catalogue for the USA claims that this pan has a 10mm thick bottom. It does not. It's more like 5 mm thick. It feels lightweight and cheap.

As Woll states (see below), thicker pans distribute heat much more evenly, and thicker pans will not warp. Thinner pans always seem to warp quickly, even if you religiously avoid temperature shocks and cook only on medium, and a warped or distorted pan is a problem on a glass top. Warping and heat distribution are issues for me. I wanted a thick pan. I will return this pan for the titanium, which is claimed to be 8 mm thick.

Woll's erroneous/false claims, which I relied upon, can be found in their catalogue on their website or you can get to that portion of their site by searching for "Main catalogue USA Canada WOLL cookware".

Sample quotes from Woll's current catalogue:

"The pan series Diamond's Best was awarded a Gold Medal at the International Exhibition of Inventions in Geneva as far back as 1999. The ultra-hard coating with embedded diamond crystals applied to the approximately 0.4" (10 mm) thick pan body possesses outstanding non-stick properties...."

Also, in the same catalogue: "Approximately 0.4" /10 mm thick cast bottom for optimum thermal absorption and no distortion, even at high temperatures."

As I mentioned above, I was looking for "no distortion" and for "optimal thermal absorption." NOT happening with this pan.
