While I own some cast iron skillets and pans this is the first blue steel pan I've owned. It has a great feel to it, somewhere in between the cast iron and my cheap pans in terms of weight. The design is great, the handle has a really good "feel" to it, very ergonomic in design. I recently made detroit style pizza with it and turned out incredible.

Every kitchen should have this pan!!! I decided to purchase from Marquette Castings because their pans are thicker than most carbon steel pans and are hand cast by a small company in Michigan. When I opened the box and took out my new pan and saw the quality and workmanship I knew that I had made the right choice. Using this pan I get the best of both worlds. It heats quicker than my cast iron and is more non stick than my stainless steel. The thicker walls of the Marquette Castings pan will also give you the heat retention of a cast iron pan. I did have a small issue with my order and Ellie in customer service went above and beyond to help me which is all the more reason I decided to purchase from a smaller American company.

Excellent iron pan, better than my Cast Iron as its lighter and heats up faster.

Awesome Dutch oven. It’s on it’s second batch of tomato sauce here. Good buy.

Works great. Heat is even and heats up fast. It's my new favorite.
