Amazon.com Review
This 8-inch nonstick skillet is the perfect size for an omelet, a burger, or salmon croquettes for one. Part of Anolon's Advanced line of cookware, the skillet is composed of heavyweight hard-anodized aluminum, which heats food evenly with no hot spots. The interior and exterior of the pan are coated with three layers of DuPont's durable Autograph 2 nonstick surface for easy release of foods. Tested by professional chefs, the nonstick coating has proven to stand up to extended use in a restaurant. Oven-safe to 375 degrees F, the SureGrip handle on the pan is made of durable 18/10 stainless steel and covered in a silicone rubber for a safe and heat-free grip. A hole at the end of the handle allows you to hang the skillet from a pot rack. Anolon Advanced cookware is covered by a lifetime limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Customer Reviews

Great Little Skillet
I am a semi-professional chef, cooking a variety of gourmet meals at least 4 nights a week, so having the right kitchen pans is vitally important. I found this little Analon quite by accident, and now use it virtually every day for sauces, for single omelettes, and for anything that doesn't require a lot of volume/space. Non-stick works just as advertised, so you can't go wrong. I now own 3 of them, and they get used all the time.

Outstanding!!
This 8" open skillet is heavier than the 'commercial' Calphalon 12" covered pan, 10" open crepe pan and 2 1/2 Qt covered sauce pan (made in China). (It would be nice if Amazon identified the country of origin of all its cookware.) The easy-grip handle is great. I have ordered 2 more as gifts. Every kitchen should have at least 2 of these!

excellent pan and even better service
My wife and I received the pans in this set for our wedding over 3 years ago. They have been excellent despite very heavy use from us. The non-stick still doesn't stick and there is almost no discoloration. They are very easy to clean because the entire pan is non-stick, not just the inside. The silicon on the handle does an excellent job of protecting your hand from being burnt even at high temperatures.

The only problem we've had is that on a few of the pans the silicon part of the handle came loose. I submitted a request to their customer service department on the web and had brand new pans within a week at no cost to me.
