I have a similar one.  Very happy with it....not quite as resistant to sticking as a good non-stick pan, but it's 10x as durable.  You can put it on high heat, in the oven, use metal utensils, etc.

Far better than the other uncoated pans, but doesn't entirely replace non-stick.  Still, it's pretty much the only plan i use

1.  get a carbon steel pan (cheap, and could be a little thicker, but does the job: http://www.amazon.com/Lodge-CRS12-Pre-Seasoned-Skillet-12-inch/dp/B005U93RYW/ref=sr_1_1/181-9369834-6855153?ie=UTF8&qid=1398828151&sr=8-1&keywords=carbon+steel)

2.  heat til just smoking, THEN add oil.

3.  should be as nonstick as you ever need.  if anything burns to it, deglaze with a bit of water and scrape it off.

easy, easy, easy.

seems like a question for google or amazon's reviews.

wow, fascinating opinion ::)

i've noticed you reply to a lot of threads, even when you clearly have nothing to say on the subject.  you aren't that interesting, give it a rest.

I have one of those too, and these greenstone-type pans are better for general cooking

a few of us here point out that your larger than life existence is a fraud, much like you and the garbage anabolics you make in your bathtub and peddle, and now anyone who says anything negative about you is a part of a board wide conspiracy to discredit you.

have you ever stopped to think, hey, maybe the whole board does know I'm full of shit?

To avoid all the toxic and poison shit the Chinese are coating their cookware with, you're better off going with a cast iron or form of metal non-coated.  Any non-coated surface is better for health reasons specifically, and can be used as effectively as coated if you know how to heat properly.  I could give a long explanation on how to prevent the sticking in cookware that is void of non-stick, but it's long and boring.
 
Long story short, heat the pan on med-high until a drop of water or two will bead and roll around the pan when dropped in.  When the water beads and rolls, the pan is hot enough for the oil.  Add the cooking oil you choose, and when the oil will 'bleed' down when the pan is tilted (just before the smoke point, usually only a few seconds after adding the oil), you can add your ingredients.  The pan will be hot enough to prevent the surface from contracting too fast/tight and gripping (thus tearing it when it's moved) the surface of the ingredient.  Hope this helps.

I love cast Iron, but there are many things you cannot cook in them.  For instance a tomato based sauce WILL react and taste awful.  Other acidic foods will react as well, lime/vinegar and totally screw up a dish.  Also, you cannot get a good fond off a cast iron because you won`t be able to see it.  Making caramel is out too, or any sugar sauce.  Browning butter will be a no go as it may get too dark.

Save cast iron for Meats and Vegetables.

Maybe....the one I have is a higher end model and it's very good.  I have a few of the other pans referenced here, and though they have their place, they don't get used very often...my pan does it all

Obviously, you used it incorrectly.
