One of the most popular pieces of cookware, the skillet offers a wide, flat base and gently curved sides--great for making pancakes, veggie omelets, or grilled cheese sandwiches then sliding them effortlessly from the pan to a plate. This 8-inch open skillet by Cuisinart is no exception. Its flared rim also makes it possible to pour sauces and gravies without messy drips. The skillet, which measures approximately 16 by 8-1/2 by 1-8/9 inches, makes a nice addition to any cookware collection.

Thanks to its hard-anodized aluminum construction with a pure aluminum core, the cookware heats quickly and evenly with no hot spots to worry about. It also provides a smooth nonstick Eterna coating that not only ensures effortless food release and lower-fat cooking options (no need for excess oil or butter), but it's also metal-utensil safe and ultra durable for long-lasting, high-quality performance. The skillet's contoured stainless-steel handle comes riveted for strength, offers an ergonomic design for comfort, and stays cool to the touch on the stovetop. The cookware also features exclusive ArmourGuard technology, which means it can stand up to the high temperature and washing and drying cycles of the dishwasher.
