Product Description: In both durability and durability, Swiss Diamond's innovative diamond reinforced non-stick cooking surface is superior to all other non-stick surfaces , even after the most abusive use. Rather than layered on, this non-stick composite gets fused to the pan, as with most other non-stick surfaces. The 11 inch fry pan is for everything from French toast to fajitas, ideal for just about any frying chore. It provides outstanding heat distribution being made from hand-cast aluminum that is 6 mm thick, and since diamonds conduct heat the coating contributes to the pans' performance. Oven safe up to 500 degrees F Perfectly flat base for use on all ceramic, gas and electric cook tops Utensil and dishwasher safe

Rating: - excellent purchase
I was hesitant to spend so much money on one pan but a cookbook writer I admire, Bryanna Clark Grogan, raved about these pans on her blog. I needed one this size because once again a cheaper non-stick pan had worn out. So I gulped and spent the money.
I have owned it for one month now and have used it at least once a day. This is a fantastic pan. It is truly non-stick and is so easy to wash. It heats very evenly. It is surprisingly light, much easier to lift than my cast iron pans.
This pan is a delight to cook with. I plan to buy more of this brand.
Rating: - Words cannot describe nor give justice to this fry pan!
I'll keep my remarks short and to the point. This is a well balanced and substantial fry pan. My doctor told me to reduce my fat intake. On occasion, I love a good fried egg sandwich for breakfast. Now, I can fry those eggs without using one drop of butter. On medium heat the eggs are cooked to perfection and without the grease. The eggs do not stick. They slide onto the nylon turner with ease. Also, pan clean-up is a breeze. To be able to cook and get great results without oil, butter or pan-spray is wonderful. Buy this fry pan without hesitation. And yes, as a matter of common sense, don't use ... Read More

i own or have owned calphalon, ironclad, french copper and many other brands and kinds of cookware and nothing compares to the swiss diamond fry pan. its cooking characteristics and it cleaning ease make it the "best ever" i have ever owned.
Rating: - My every day pan
This pan is the best I have ever used. I have a glass cooktop, which made my tri-clad skillets useless, because the bottoms are thin and will warp when heated. The Swiss Diamond pan stays perfectly straight, creating almost a suction-like feeling when lifted. So I know I have the best heat transfer to my pan.
The non-stick surface is truly non-stick yet caramelizes food perfectly. Medium-high is about as high as you need to go, even on that glass cooktop.
Rating: - the best medium-large skillet on the market
I just picked up one of these 11" skillets after owning and using the 12.5" Swiss Diamond skillet for some time. Below the five-star symbol I have pasted my review of the 12.5" skillet. Here are some additional notes to augment it. This model did not come with a lid (reflected in the price). The slightly smaller diameter makes for a much lighter and easier to use skillet for most of my purposes (I almost always only cook for two). After an additional year of use, the 12.5" is still good as new. I once accidentally left it on high heat long enough for the residual grease in the pan to catch ... Read More
