It's light enough for you limp wristed faggots, it doesn't have stupid high heat retention, and all the benefits of a nonstick pan you seasoned yourself.

And this was the third time using the pan and what a load of crap. Literally four table spoons of oil so my food swims in it and STILL FUCKING STICKS
Holy shit this is the worst item ever
