I was so excited to receive this skillet for Christmas this year. The Vented glass lid, large size, and removable, dishwasher safe skillet all seemed perfect until I tried to use it today. It is slightly raised in the middle so my pancakes 'slid' unevenly to one side, the heat is mostly in the middle of the pan and it doesn't get up to heat very quickly.Unfortunately I am going to use my gift receipt to trade it in for the Presto.
