Buy new: $39.99 / Used from: $28.99
Great pan, fantastic price. Best pan ever. Never use metal utensils on the non-stick surface. Wood or plastic only! I'm surprised how many people (especially young, single guys) don't know this!

Bakes great pizza, frozen or homemade. The crust gets crispy on the bottom without burning. Nice and big! It works well as a cookie sheet too. Buy two of them; you'll use them.

The pitcher comes with one filter, but buy this pack of three and you'll be set for a long time. With just two of us in the house it takes us over a year to use them all.
