WOW, WHAT A PAN!
I have had many electric skillets over the years that needed replacement every 3 - 4 years. We use an electric skillet for everything from pancakes to pot roast to stuffed peppers.

No sticking, burning, easy to clean. The only problem is the handle on the lid gets hot so use a hot pad to remove it.
