KitchenAid NITRO Carbon Steel Frying Pan/Skillet, Stainless Handle, 8.5 Inch, Black

This skillet is incredibly lightweight, which I love. It heats up fast and evenly. I've used it for searing steak and frying eggs, and everything comes out great. The handle stays cool, too. Highly recommend.

Carbon steel requires some maintenance, but once you get the hang of it, it's non-stick and versatile. I appreciate that it's oven-safe to high temps. A must-have for serious cooks.

I've been using this pan for a week now, and it's fantastic. It's light, heats quickly, and the cooking surface is smooth. The handle is comfortable. It's become my daily driver for most cooking.

For the price, this is a steal. It performs like pans that cost much more. It took me a couple of tries to season it properly, but now it's non-stick. The only downside is that it's a bit small for cooking for more than two.

I read about carbon steel pans and decided to try this one. It's excellent. The pan is well-balanced, heats nicely, and with proper seasoning, eggs slide right off. It's easy to clean, too. Very satisfied.

I expected it to be non-stick right away, but it needed seasoning. Once I did that, it works well. But if you're used to Teflon, this might not be for you. It's also a bit tricky to maintain.

I bought this specifically for my induction cooktop, and it works perfectly. It's lightweight and heats up quickly. The handle is sturdy and stays cool. Great pan for the price.

I love how well this pan sears. The carbon steel gets really hot and gives a beautiful crust. It's lightweight, which is a plus. The only issue is that the handle gets a bit warm if I cook for too long, but it's manageable.

I've used many pans, and this one is top-notch. It's light enough to toss ingredients, and the heat distribution is even. The black finish looks sleek. I've recommended it to my friends.

Even though I followed the instructions, the pan rusted after the first wash. I dried it immediately, but it still developed rust spots. I had to scrub them off and reseason. Not worth the hassle for me.
