Everything sticks to this pan, so don't believe the "no oil or butter needed." Eggs stick, potatoes stick, and the seasonings burn. I bought two 9.5" deep square pans, and the pan set for Christmas gifts and was very disappointed in the hype. Then, when I call to get the pans replaced, they want you to pay more money for replacements. No way!
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
