Summary: Non-stick frying pans
Comment: The Swiss Diamond Cast-Aluminum non-stick frying pan is more like a griddle than just a frying pan. It has a wide bottom and gently sloping sides. It is heavier and sturdier than most non-stick frying pans and has become my favorite. I will buy more of this brand.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Two minor issues to consider
Comment: I can't yet comment on the longevity of the pan's coating, but there are two features you should be aware of.
First, the pan's diameter is only 24 cm, as opposed to 10 in (25.4 cm). Hence standard lids don't fit.
Second, the tops of the pan edges are fully vertical, making it very difficult to drain off liquid while using a spatula to hold back the food.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Surface is neither safe nor indestructable
Comment: Avoid this pan; check out the consumer alert at NaturalNews.com for the truth about this Swiss Diamond pan. The surface is easily scratched, and contains toxic teflon chemicals. There are better, safer stainless steel pans available for less money, too!

Summary: Best Fry Pans Ever!
Comment: I use frying pans for a multitude reasons when cooking, so I've collected quite a few (and thrown away even more) over my lifetime. Don't remember what prompted me to purchase my first Swiss Diamond fry pan, but I am sure glad I did. They perform better than any other, at ANY price! They sit flat on the cooking surface. The food never sticks, and the pan never loses it's pretty dark patina. I have been using mine, and I have 3 of various sizes, for about 4 years. They look as good today, as the day I took them out of the box. I never want another brand.

Summary: Great pan to start, then...
Comment: I LOVED this pan when I first got it, and for a while. I've had it for over a year now. It cooked evenly and was wonderfully non-stick. In fact, it cooked as nicely as a well-seasoned cast iron. I tried to care for it as directed, but even so, the pan has lost most of it's non-stick qualities and is difficult to clean well.
To make a long story short, I prefer my old cast iron, and while they require some care, they hold their quality. This pan has become unmanageable as far as its non-stick coating is concerned. There doesn't seem to be any way to "restore" it as you would a cast iron pan.
I REALLY WANTED TO LOVE THIS PAN, but after one year, I am very disappointed. Started out well, but quickly went the way of cheap non-stick pans.

Editorial Reviews:

In both durability and durability, Swiss Diamond's innovative diamond reinforced non-stick cooking surface is superior to all other non-stick surfaces , even after the most abusive use. Rather than layered on, this non-stick composite gets fused to the pan, as with most other non-stick surfaces. The 10 inch fry pan is for everything from French toast to fajitas, ideal for just about any frying chore. It provides outstanding heat distribution being made from hand-cast aluminum. Oven safe up to 500 degrees F Perfectly flat base for use on all ceramic, gas and electric cook tops Utensil and dishwasher safe
