Summary: The best grillpan there is, hands down.
Comment: Nothing compares to the Scanpan nonstick surface (I have their wok and it's truly fabulous).
My model of this grillpan has lower sides, and it looks like it has a slightly larger grilling surface. When I got it it was sold as an 11" 'Classic' model, and it looks more like the griddle you see below here, but with the grill elevations. The shorter sides allow you to use skewers flat on the grill surface, and also to remove fragile foods easier with a spatula than navigating around the higher sides. However, it seems like they've replaced my model with this one. If you want to search for the other, you may find it worth it.
I've tended to be a Le Creuset snob of sorts, and have a circular one of theirs which, while not specifically sold as nonstick, held out that promise with it's black coating. Everything always stuck to it, and there was always much non-scrubbable residue, likely from the spray I used. Le Creuset may now have a more au currant REAL nonstick surface, I don't know--but even if they did, I'd choose this one for its ease of handling and fine cooking job.
Cleanup with this Scanpan is magical. It only requires hot water and a brush to make all the burnt stuff disappear easily--then hot soapy water and voila! It's like new. I don't recommend using nonstick sprays. First, you don't need them with this pan, and second, they accumulate residue which burns on and becomes very hard to scrub off.
If you live near a Trader Joe's, get their marinated lamb tips and skewer them up and grill 'em on this, preheated ONLY at medium high heat. Doesn't get any easier or more delicious.

Summary: Lifetime Guarantee Works
Comment: I bought my first Scanpan set in 1990 and the frypans did lose their non-stick abilities over the past 17 years. Last week, in accordance with their lifetime warranty, I returned 4 pans to them and today four brand NEW Scanpan replacements showed up. I have been so happy with these pans over the years and we'll never buy anything else!

Summary: This is my second one.
Comment: I purchased this skillet almost 15 years ago. I used it almost every day.
It was time for a new one. It is the best skillet I have owned and with the glass domed lid that cooks the interior of your food and seals in the flavor, you can cook anything to perfection. I love this pan.

Summary: Awesome grill pan
Comment: This is a fantastic grill pan. Everything I've done it, from salmon to chicken to steaks, has nicely seared and cooked well. Actually, it has cooked medium-rare.
Clean up is very easy. No more work than cleaning a coated non-stick and way easier than cast iron grill pan I use to have.
This is my first Scanpan product. It won't be my last.
