Fantastic to use and great to look at. How did cast iron become sexy? For eggs this pan works better than Teflon and is indestructible. Would like more of the cast iron series please since lugging others from Finland to Boston would be too much of a chore!

Pros
Everything.
Cons
Nothing to dislike. Weight is to be expected after all and is an excellent workout
